2.1 Intended use
Warning
Can cause injury or damage to health!
¾Only use the machine for work and materials described in
"Intended use".
¾Do not process materials containing asbestos.
The TRUMPF Slitting Shears TruTool C 250 is an electrical hand-
held device used for the following applications:
•Cutting plate-shaped workpieces made of steel, aluminum,
plastic, etc.
•Cutting straight or curved exterior and interior cutouts.
•Cutting along scribed lines.
The TRUMPF TruTool C 250 Slitting Shears enable chips to be cut
off that are produced while machining the workpiece as required.
The CLi recharger charges exchangeable batteries of the Li-Ion
Energy 28 V system.

3. Setting work
3.1 Selection of tools
Note
The blades have 2 cutting edges. They cannot be resharpened.
Different types of blades are required, depending on the material
thickness or the tensile strength of the workpiece. (See Tab. 5,
p. 10.)
Note
If the blade is not selected as specified in the table,
–The cutting quality will be severely impaired.
–If the feed power increases significantly.
–The blade will break.

3.2 Loading the rechargeable battery
Danger
Risk of fatal injury from electric shock.
Line voltage is present at the battery terminals.
¾Do not touch the electrical contacts (battery terminals) on the
recharger.
The rechargeable battery is partially charged (50%) at the time the
rechargeable battery electric tool is delivered.
Prerequisites
•The electric tool has been switched off for at least 1 minute.
¾Press the key on the rechargeable battery.
The LEDs on the rechargeable battery show the charging status.

12 Setting work E621EN_01.DOC
Before using the cordless electric tool, a new exchangeable battery
or one that has not been used for a long time needs to be charged.
Note
The full capacity is reached after 2-10 charging cycles.
¾Insert the exchangeable battery into the insertion well on the
recharger.
The loading time is between 1 min and 60 min, depending on how
far the rechargeable battery had been discharged beforehand. The
rechargeable battery is completely charged after 60 min.
The maximum charging current flows when the temperature of the
rechargeable battery is between 0°C and 66°C. If a rechargeable
battery is inserted into the recharger that is too cold or too warm
(red LED flashes), then the charging process will begin
automatically as soon as the rechargeable battery has reached the
correct charging temperature (–10°C to +66°C).

4.1 Working with the TruTool C 250
Before using the cordless electric tool, a new exchangeable battery
or one that has not been used for a long time needs to be
activated.
¾Place rechargeable battery briefly on the recharger or charge it
completely.
The LEDs on the rechargeable battery show the charging status.
Note
The performance capacity of the rechargeable battery is available
to only a limited extent at temperatures below -10°C.
The rechargeable battery shuts off automatically when it is
completely discharged. The rechargeable battery emits brief
electricity pulses when the electrical tool is switched on.
Note
Do not move the machine towards the workpiece until full speed
has been reached.
