CAUTION
Damage to property due to incorrect handling! Incorrect handling can result in damage to the pressing
tool and/or the pressing rings.
▶ Before starting work, make sure that pressing rings, adapter jaws/pressing jaws and rolling actuator (if
present) are dust-free and well lubricated.
▶ Before starting work, lubricate pressing rings, adapter jaws/pressing jaws and rolling actuator (if present)
with "lubricant and corrosion-inhibiting spray" (#308976).
▶ Comply with the original operating instructions of the manufacturer for the pressing rings.
In cold weather the hydraulic oil can thicken and slow the pressing operation. Perform 5 to 10 empty
pressing operations to heat up the pressing tool.
1. Press and hold the control switch until the crimping / pressing jaws are completely closed.
2. When using a crimping / pressing ring, bring the product with the adapter jaws into position on the
crimping / pressing ring and carry out the crimping / pressing operation.
In order to achieve a tight, durable crimped / pressed joint, it is essential that the crimping / pressing
jaws reach the fully closed position, thus indicating completion of the crimping / pressing operation.
If the crimping / pressing operation is ended prematurely, the fitting must be removed or, if
possible, recrimped / repressed.
