Instruction Manual EK 60 UNV
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
For cutting ACSR conductors you must only use the UCACSR cutting
blades.
Attention
Cutting ACSR conductors or steel fortified
cables do always wear safety glasses.
Fractions of reenforced steel conductors can be propelled towards the
operator with high speed and could cause severe injuries.
When cutting threaded rods they must be in a right angle to the cutting
blades to provide a clean cut. The threaded rods must be cleaned of
chips prior to cutting. The cutting cycle should be proceeded until the
blades have reached their final position in order to provide clean
cutting edges.
The DIN rail cutting dies are equipped with a sheet metal guide which
facilitate a cut in a right angle.
When the cut is completed the retraction is provided by actuating the
retract button (Pos.-No. 2) once.
5.1.3 Use of the punch adapter
The advance (penetration) of the punch into the die must be observed
carefully. As soon as the sheet metal is punched the punching cycle
must be terminated by releasing the trigger (Pos.-No. 1).
The retraction is provided by actuating the retract button (Pos.-No. 2)
once.
Attention
If the punching cycle is not terminated after the sheet
metal is punched the punch will contact the die which
might result in fracture of one or the other.
5.2. Explanation of the application range
The electric hydraulic unit can be operated with a large number of
various crimping (Pos.-No. 10) and cutting dies.
Attention
Do only crimp those connecting materials mentioned in
Tab. 2 (see enclosure)
If different conducting materials have to be crimped, please contact the
manufacturer.
Attention
Do not crimp on live cables or conductors
The unit is a hand held tool and it is not supposed to be restrained in a
vise. It is not allowed to use the tool in a stationary application.
The tool is not designed for continued operations. After a sequence of
approximately 40-50 completed cycles you have to make a break of 15
min. to give the tool time to cool down.
Attention
Too intensive use can cause heat damages for the tool
Attention
During the operation of electric engines sparks can
occur which might ignite highly inflammable or
explosive liquids and materials
Attention
Electric-hydraulic tools should not be operated in
pouring rain or under water.
5.3. Mounting instructions
Please read the assembly instructions in Chapter 12 of our general
catalogue.
Attention
Even if the code number is identical only those dies
should be used which are suitable for the material.
Please use the following assembly instructions for cable lugs and
connectors:
1. Strip the conductor according to insertion depth (+10% due to the
change of length of the crimped sleeve)
2. The conductor ends must be cleaned with a cloth or brush before the
assembly.
3. Insert the conductor fully into the cable lug or connector
4. Pay attention to the crimping directions and use the appropriate dies.
3
The crimping directions
for cable lugs and connectors is indicated in
the illustration below.
5. After crimping, wipe away excess compound forced out of Al-cable
lugs and connectors.
5.4 Service and maintenance instruction
The electric-hydraulic unit is equipped with a controller enabling the
user to see when the next service is due. (Pls. read chapter 4.3 for more
information) When the next service is due the unit must be returned to
an authorised service center.
For every day service the unit has to be cleaned and dried after each use.
The battery cartridge (Pos.-No. 7) and the charging unit have to be
protected against humidity and dust.
Within the determined use of the tool only the dies (Pos.-No. 10), the
adapters (Pos.-Nr. 4) are permitted to be changed by the customers.
Attention
Do not damage the seals of the tool.
If the seals are damaged the warranty is invalidated.
5.5 Remarks on the use of the battery cartridge and charging unit.
The charging unit is run with a nominal voltage of 230 V and a
frequency of 50-60 Hz. New batteries must be charged prior to use. To
charge the battery cartridge (Pos.-No. 7) the power plug of the charging
unit has to be plugged into the power supply and the battery cartridge
has to be pushed into the charging unit. The charging time is one hour.
The charging level of the battery cartridge can be checked by a LED
green
battery cartridge is charged
red
Battery cartridge is empty and is just being charged
flashing battery cartridge is not pushed in properly or too hot,
a sound signal occurs
Is the battery plugged in correctly the LED changes from green to red
and the charging procedure starts. When the charging procedure is
terminated the LED changes again to green. Simultaneously a signal
occurs for 5 seconds.
No other battery cartridges e.g. dry batteries or car batteries etc. are
permitted to be used neither in the tool nor in the charging unit.
As soon as the speed of the machine decreases noticeably the battery
must be recharged. Do not recharge a partially discharged battery as a
precaution.
If charging a battery which has currently been used or which was laying
in the sun for a longer period of time the LED might flash red. In this
case wait for a while. The charging procedure starts after the battery
cooled down.
Does the LED flash red and green and does an audible tone occur for 20
seconds it is not possible to charge that battery. The poles of the battery
or the charging unit are dirty or the battery is low or damaged.
If you want to charge two batteries in a row wait for 15 min before you
charge the second battery.
Avoid great fluctuating temperatures under 0°C and above 40°C.
Through these fluctuations damages may result for the battery cartridge
as well as for the charging unit. The best operation temperature is
between 15-25 °C.

The charging level of the battery can also be verified by the LED of the tool
at the end of a crimping cycle. See chapter 4.3 for further information.
