Specified Conditions Of Use - Milwaukee M18 HCCT Manual Original

SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE

Crimping Tool:
The crimping tool is exclusively designed for crimping connectors
and compound materials with dedicated crimping dies.
All live parts, i.e., parts conducting electricity, must be discon-
nected in the technician's work environment prior to starting work.
Cable Cutter:
The cable cutter is suitable for cutting
• tension-free non-reinforced cables of insulated copper or
aluminum, cutting tools depending on cable type
WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and speci cations provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
WORKING INSTRUCTIONS FOR CRIMPING
Use only standardized connectors according to national standards
with dedicated crimping dies.
Consult the documents provided by the manufacturer for handling
and assembly instructions for connectors.
Check that the nominal diameter of the connecting item corre-
sponds to the nominal diameter of the crimping insert.
Before the crimping process begins, the battery capacity must be
checked: minimum 33% (see illustrated description).It may require
charging before work commences.
Actuating the control switch initiates the pressing process, which is
characterized by the crimping dies coming together.
It is the user's responsibility to check and evaluate that the joint
is correct.
Imperfect joints must be crimped again using a new connector.
Action in the event of faults
• Keep the reset switch pressed until the jaws have opened
completely
• check the battery capacity
• Inspect the cable and the crimping dies based on the technical
data
• If it is suspected that a live cable has been pressed, the crimping
tool must be inspected at an authorized, specialist workshop
WORKING INSTRUCTIONS FOR CUTTING
Set-up of the working area
Before work begins, the cables or cords must be disconnected and
it must be ensured that they remain isolated from the power supply
for the duration of the work.
If it cannot be ensured beyond doubt that the cable or insulated line
has been disconnected, no work may be carried out.
It is crucial that local safety provisions and the regulations are
observed.
Cable and cord may not be exposed to any mechanical forces and
must be secured from any uncontrolled movements following the
cut.
Do not expose tools to rain. Do not use tools in damp or wet
locations.

Preparation of cable cutter and battery
Before every use:
• Inspect cable cutter for external defects
• Check the cutting tool for cracks and other signs of wear
Only use in perfect condition!
Before the cutting process begins, the battery capacity must be
checked: minimum 33% (see illustrated description). It may require
charging before work commences.
Preparation for the cutting process
Support and x the cable or rope to be cut to minimise the risk of
uncontrolled movement.
Overhead cables and cords, in particular, can move out of control
and cause injury and/or damage.
The cutting head must be positioned at an angle of 90° to the cable
or cord, so that the cable can lie in the opened cutting jaws without
tension and undesirable shearing forces can be avoided.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of explosions, electric
shock and damage to property and equipment, never cut
live electrical cables.
Device is NOT insulated. Contact with a live circuit could
result in severe injury or death. Turn o power before
making a cut. Never cut gas or water lines. Keep hands
away from all cutting edges and moving parts. Laceration
and amputation can occur.
Always remove battery pack before changing or removing
accessories. Only use accessories speci cally recommended
for this device. Others may be hazardous.
To reduce the risk of injury, wear safety goggles or glasses
with side shields.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, only cut recom-
mended materials for the blades. (see „Speci cations") Do
not attempt to cut other materials.
Cutting
Before cutting, ensure cutting blades are properly installed.
1. Guide the cable at right angles to the cutting of the cable cutter.
Do not attempt to make angled cuts as it will damage the device
and cutting blades.
2. Pull and hold the trigger through the operation.
An LED will light when the trigger is pulled.
When the cut is complete or the device shuts o , the cutting jaws
open independently. If you release the trigger during the cutting
operation, you musst press the hydraulic reset button to open the
cutting jaws.
Note: Workpiece may move slightly during the cut.
Action in the event of faults
• The cable can be broached and become live, in which case always
inform the safety o cer, stop the cutting process, and initiate
suitable protective measures
• Always ensure that the device is and will stay disconnected from
the power supply before approached and touching the device
• press and hold the hydraulic reset button until the cutter opens
completely
• check the battery capacity
• check the material and material thickness against the technical
data
• If it is suspected that a live cable has been cut, the cable-cutter
has to be inspected in an authorized specialist workshop
