2.1 Intended Use
The hydraulic battery tools are designed and tested exclusively for the intended
applications described here. All other activities are fundamentally prohibited.
All battery tools are designed as one-person tool and are therefore to be operated by only
one person.
Cutters (SC198, SC198NXT GEN, SC240, SC240NXT GEN, SC385, F7)
Spreaders (S44, S49, S54)
• The battery-powered cutting tools are used exclusively for cutting doors, roof
beams, pillars, door sills, the ring and the spokes of the steering wheel.
• If possible, for cutting solid material, always use the rear part of the cutter blades
as it is equipped with special edges for cutting round material.
• In industrial application, the equipment can also be used to cut pipes, structural
steels, proles, sheets and cables.
• The battery-powered spreading tools can be used for opening doors, lifting
vehicles or other moveable loads, pushing away and moving vehicle parts and
loads, and squeezing pipes and tie bars.
• If possible, always use the tips of the spreader for squeezing.
• The spreader tips can also be used as a peeling tool.
• The chain set is solely to be used for pulling.
