8 DIAGNOSIS OF PROBLEMS
The RE-BAR tier will eventually need maintenance service and replacement of worn parts due to normal wear and
tear.
Troubleshooting and/or repairs are only to be carried out by authorised dealers or specialists.
The RE-BAR tier warns about malfunctions using beep sounds.
If one of the problems listed, set the main switch to 0 position, before trying to solve the issue.
When the main switch is set to 1 - do not place your fingers near the curl guide or other moving parts of the
machine. If the problem still occurs, contact your dealer.

What to check
Possible cause
Electrodes are oxidized
or dirty.
Battery is low or comple-
tely empty.
The wire end is bent or
twisted so it get caught in
the wire guide.
The selected tension
torque is too high.
The curl guide is open.
The diameter of rebar
exceed the max. tying
diamater.
Wire is caught inside
reel.
Wire has run out.
The motor for dragging
the wire out is over-
heated due to long run
abuse.
Wire is repelled when
hitting the rebar.
The cutting blade is
blocked by dirt, metal
shavings or any other
waste substances.
The rebar size is too
small to be tied.
Wrong tying operation.

Solution
Clean the electrodes with
a dry cloth.
Replace the dead battery
for a fully charged one.
Recharge the dead one.
Use the plier supplied
to take out the wire end
and cut it.
Take out the entangled
wire from the curl guide
and readjust the tension
torque.
Close the curl guide.
Use the correct rebar
sizes according to the
max. tying diameter of
the tool.
Clear the entangled wire
in the reel.
Set a new wire coil.
Keep the tool off for a
while to cool down the
motor.
Pay attention so the wire
does not hit the rebar
when tying operation.
Either wipe the cutting
blade with a dry cloth or
blow with pressure air for
cleaning.
Use correct rebar size
and adjust the tension
torque to a tighten
position.
Read the instruction
manual for correct tying
method.
Readjust the tension tor-
que to a loose position.
