spray cans (REMS Spezial, REMS Sanitol) which is environment-friendly.
Spray cans are pressurized – do not force open. Also, protect them from
exposure to strong sunlight and heating above 50°C.
Due to the degreasing effect of the thread-cutting oils, an intensive skin
•
contact must be avoided. An appropriate skin protector must be applied.
Do not allow undiluted thread-cutting oil to get into drainage, water systems
•
or the soil. Remaining thread-cutting oils have to be delivered to specia-
lized waste disposal companies. Disposal identity number for mineral-
based thread-cutting oils 54401, for synthetic 54109.

2.1. Tools
Use only original quick-change die heads of REMS eva hand die stock.

of the drive unit (2) (Fig. 1). They snap-in automatically.
The die heads protude the back of the housing. This facilitates taking
the die head out of the drive unit by jolting the protuding edge against a
plain surface or edge (fig. 2).

Otherwise the die head may be pushed out, e.g. during start-cutting. If

Do not work without retaining ring (3). Otherwise the die head may
be pushed out, e.g. during start-cutting.
In case a thread is to be cut on a short piece of pipe, use REMS eva
quick-change die heads S with the additional pipe guidance on the co-
ver side (Fig. 4). These can be mounted directly into the ratchet lever of
REMS eva. For operating with quick-change die heads S in hard-to reach
areas, e.g. caved walls (Fig. 5), the ratchet extension (5) is to be used.

2.2. Thread-cutting oils
521010
Use only REMS thread-cutting oils. You will have perfect threading re-
521020
sults, long durability of dies as well as high protection of the drive unit.
521030
REMS recommends the use of the practical and economical spray can.
521040
REMS Spezial: High-alloyed, mineral based hread-cutting oil. For all
521050
materials: steel, stainless steel, non-ferrous metals, plastics. Pleasant

to work with. Washes out with water, approved by experts.
521070
Mineral based thread-cutting oils are not permitted for drinking water
521080
installations in some countries, e.g. Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
521026
In this case, use the mineral oil-free REMS Sanitol.

water supplies. Completely water-soluable. Complies with regulations:

Approval No. W 1.303, in Switzerland SVGW Approval No. 7808-649.
522051
Viscosity at –10°C: 190 mPa s (cP). Pumpable to –28°C. No water added.
Easy to use. Dyed red for rinse-out inspection.
Both types of thread-cutting oils are available in spray cans as well as
in cans and barrels.
Use thread-cutting oils only undiluted!
3. Operation
3.1. Working procedure
Cut pipe at a right angle and burr-free. Clamp into vice so that the end
of the pipe protrude about 10 cm (4") from the end of the clamping jaws.
Spray REMS thread-cutting oil onto the threading section (see 2.2.).
Insert the selected quick-change die head into the drive unit (Fig. 1).
Adjust stop bolt (6) by withdrawing and turning: Arrow facing downwards
= direction of work. Place die head on pipe, apply pressure and move
ratchet at the same time. Lubricate several times with REMS Spray du-
ring thread-cutting. The standard length for tapered threads is reached
when the front edge of the pipe is flush with the upper edge of the dies
(not top of the cover). Reverse stop bolt (arrow facing upwards). Move
ratchet backwards or withdraw die head manually.
3.2. Production of nipples and double nipples
For clamping short pieces of pipes and for the production of nipples and
double nipples use REMS Nippelspanner. They are available in sizes
from 3 / "–2". For clamping pipe pieces (with or without thread) with the
8
REMS Nippelspanner the head of the Nippelspanner is expanded by
turning the spindle with a tool (e.g. screwdriver). This must only be done
when a pipe is put on (Fig. 6).
When using the REMS Nippelspanner it must be observed that no shorter
nipples are threaded than specified in the standards.
4. Maintenance
4.1. Maintenance
Keep ratchet lever, quick-change die heads and seating clean. Clean
heavily silted die heads, e.g. with turpentine oil.
4.2. Inspection/Servicing
Check retaining ring (3) of proper functioning, replace if necessary. The
dies of the quick-change die heads are subject to wear and need to be
replaced from time to time. Blunt dies are recognized when cutting pres-
sure increases and/or threads are ripping off despite good lubrication.
For changing dies, clamp the die head in a vice, remove cover, then
carefully knock out dies from outside to in. Knock in new dies with the
start-cutting edge pointing towards the bottom in corresponding slots
