During use
6.3.1
Changing the battery pack
The battery pack has a LED indicator that shows the approximate battery level (the State Of Charge).
CAUTION
•
Many cycles in a short time may cause the temperature to increase above allowed limits.
The tool will work slower to prevent that the battery stops.
•
Using the battery pack at temperatures above 45 °C (113 °F) decreases the life time of
the battery pack.
•
Stop the tool with the on/off switch.
•
Remove the battery pack. Refer to Fig. 6.
•
Put a new battery pack on the tool. Refer to Fig. 7.
•
Start the tool with the on/off switch.
NOTICE
It is highly recommended to have at least one fully charged spare battery pack available at
all times.
NOTICE
To protect the battery pack, the tool will stop as soon as the battery pack becomes empty.
The tool can be fixated at that moment. To remove the tool it is best to replace the battery
pack by a fully charged battery pack.
6.3.2
Tool movement
The spreading arms open and close relatively quickly until they encounter resistance. Then the pump
will build up the required pressure for spreading, cutting, pulling or squeezing.
WARNING
Take extreme care during tool movement. Because of the enormous power of the tool parts
of the body can easily be crushed or pinched.
NOTE
When the tool is put in water it is possible that it operates in safe mode:
•
The motor operates at slow speed.
•
The motor will not stop when you release the control handle or put into neutral position.
It is allowed to continue.
6.3.3
Spreading
CAUTION
Make sure that the spreading tips have been properly attached to the spreading arms.
Initial opening is sufficient
•
Close the spreading arms completely.
•
Place both spreading tips between the parts to be spread.
•
Force the parts apart by opening the spreading arms.
