5. Remarks in respect of the determined use
Before starting any work on electrical appliances it must be
safeguarded that there are no live parts in the immediate assembly
area of the user. Is this not possible special precaution
near live parts must be provided.
Prior to operating the unit the charging level of the battery (Pos.-
No. 7) should have been tested
detected by the flashing of the LED (Pos.-No. 6) for 20 sec. at the
end of a cutting cycle.
5.1. Operation of the unit
Place the conductor/cable into the open cutting head.
The cutting procedure is initiated by actuating the trigger (Pos.-No.
1 & Picture 2 Pos. C). The cutting process is defined by the closing
motion of the blades (Pos.-No. 10).
Attention
The cutting process can be interrupted at any
moment by releasing the trigger.
The cutting process is terminated when the cutting blades overlap.
After having completed the cut the blades return into the starting
position by actuating the retract button (Pos.-No 2, Picture 2 Pos.
B) once. After a few seconds a second cutting cycle can be
initiated.
Attention
After having terminated the cutting process
and prior to changing the blades remove
battery to avoid unintended use.
5.2. Explanation of the application range
Our electric-hydraulic cutting tool type ES 50 Plus can cut copper
and aluminium conductors or cables up to a maximum diameter of
50 mm.
Attention
Do only cut copper and Aluminium conductors and
cables.
If different conducting materials have to be cut, please contact the
manufacturer.
Attention
Do not cut Steel armed cables and conductors or
cables with a steel core.
Attention
Do not cut live cables or conductors
The ES 50 Plus 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 cutting operations. After a
sequence of approximately 40 completed cuts 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 cutting tools should not be
operated in pouring rain or under water.

5.3. Service and maintenance instruction
The electric-hydraulic cutting unit is equipped with a sophisticated
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 to be returned to an authorised service centre.
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 blades (Pos.-No. 10) are
permitted to be changed by the customers. If the seals are damaged the
warranty is invalidated.
Attention
Do not damage the seals of the tool.
5.4 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.
Do not leave or operate the charging unit in rain or snow. Do not charge
the battery near lightly inflammable materials or gases.
Do not use the cord to transport the charging unit or to pull the plug out
of a wall socket with force. Do not insert strange parts into the ducts of
the charging unit.
The charging of the batteries must only be done with charging units
supplied by the manufacturer.
Attention
Do not place the battery in your pocket or in your toolbox
if there are any conductive materials in it such as coins,
keys, tools or other metallic parts.

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