ADDITIONAL SAFETY AND WORKING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING! To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and product
damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery pack
or charger in fluid or allow a fluid to flow inside them. Corrosive or
conductive fluids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals,
and bleach or bleach containing products, etc., Can cause a short
circuit.
Never break open battery packs and chargers and store only in dry
rooms. Keep dry at all times.
Use only System M18 chargers for charging System M18 battery
packs. Do not use battery packs from other systems.
WARNING!
This device contains a button-type/coin
cell lithium battery. A new or used battery can cause
severe internal burns and lead to death in as little as 2
hours if swallowed or if it enters the body. Always secure
the cover on the battery compartment. If it does not close securely,
stop the device, remove the battery and keep it out of reach of
children. If you believe that someone has swallowed the battery or
that it has otherwise entered the body, seek immediate medical
attention.
SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE
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 disconnected in the
technician's work environment prior to starting work.
Do not use the product in any way other than those stated for
intended use.
RESIDUAL RISK
Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still impossible
to completely eliminate certain residual risk factors. The following
hazards may arise in use and the operator should pay special
attention to avoid the following:
• Injury caused by vibration. Hold the product by designated
handles and restrict working time and exposure.
• Exposure to noise can cause hearing injury. Wear ear protection
and limit exposure.
• Injury due to flying debris. Wear eye protection, heavy long
trousers, gloves and substancial footwear at all times.
• Inhalation of toxic dusts.
NOTES FOR LI-ION BATTERIES
Use of Li-Ion batteries
Battery packs which have not been used for some time should be
recharged before use.
Temperatures in excess of 50°C (122°F) reduce the performance of
the battery pack. Avoid extended exposure to heat or sunshine (risk
of overheating).
The contacts of chargers and battery packs must be kept clean.
For an optimum life-time, the battery packs have to be fully charged,
after use.
To obtain the longest possible battery life remove the battery pack
from the charger once it is fully charged.
For battery pack storage longer than 30 days:
Store the battery pack where the temperature is below 27°C and
away from moisture
Store the battery packs in a 30% - 50% charged condition
Every six months of storage, charge the pack as normal.
Battery protection for Li-Ion batteries
In extremely high torque, binding, stalling and short circuit situations
that cause high current draw, the tool will vibrate for about 5
seconds, the fuel gauge will flash,and then the tool will turn OFF.
To reset, release the trigger. Under extreme circumstances, the
internal temperature of the battery pack could raise too much. If
this happens, the fuel gauge will flash until the battery pack cooled
down. After the lights go off, the work may continue.

Transporting Lithium Batteries
Lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods Legislation
requirements.
Transportation of those batteries has to be done in accordance with
local, national and international provisions and regulations.
The user can transport the batteries by road without further
requirements.
Commercial transport of Lithium-Ion batteries by third parties is
subject to Dangerous Goods regulations. Transport preparation and
transport are exclusively to be carried out by appropriately trained
persons and the process has to be accompanied by corresponding
experts.
When transporting batteries:
Ensure that battery contact terminals are protected and insulated to
prevent short circuit.
Ensure that battery pack is secured against movement within
packaging. Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leak.
Check with forwarding company for further advice.
WORKING INSTRUCTIONS
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 corresponds
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
