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.
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 lifetime, 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.
Do not dispose of used battery packs in the household
refuse or by burning them. MILWAUKEE Distributors
offer to retrieve old batteries to protect our environment.
Do not store the battery pack together with metal
objects (short circuit risk).
Battery acid may leak from damaged batteries under
extreme load or extreme temperatures. In case of
contact with battery acid wash it off immediately with
soap and water. In case of eye contact rinse thoroughly
for at least 10 minutes and immediately seek medical
attention.
No metal parts must be allowed to enter the battery
section of the charger (short circuit risk).
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.
MAINTENANCE
Check that press jaws and the guide rollers move
freely.
Clean and grease the locking bolts and crimping jaws
when you have finished work.
Service and repair work may only be carried out by
authorised specialist workshops.
The device contains hydraulic fluid. Hydraulic fluids
pose a hazard to groundwater. Uncontrolled draining
or improper disposal is punishable by law.
The next service deadline is indicated on the crimping
device.
This service must be performed at least every 6-12
month or after 20,000 crimping operations or at the
latest when the LED display indicates that a service
is due.
Replace worn press jaws and dies.
The ventilation slots of the machine must be kept clear
at all times.
Use only MILWAUKEE accessories and MILWAUKEE
spare parts. Should components need to be replaced
which have not been described, please contact one
of our MILWAUKEE service agents (see our list of
guarantee/service addresses).
If needed, an exploded view of the tool can be ordered.
Please state the Article No. as well as the machine
type printed on the label and order the drawing at your
local service agents.
