Pressing attachments (pressing jaws, adapter jaws, pressing collars) are wearing
parts. Frequent pressing will cause the material to become worn; advanced stages of
wear will be indicated by incipient cracks. Pressing attachments that display this kind
of wear or are damaged in any other way may break, particularly if they are used
incorrectly (e.g. pressing a fitting that is too large, tilting, foreign bodies on the fitting)
or in a way that does not comply with their intended use.
WARNING
Danger of crushing when the pressing tool closes automatically
Do not hold any parts of your body or other objects in between the pressing jaws
and adapter jaws
Do not hold the pressing tool in the area of the pressing jaws or adapter jaws
CAUTION
Damage to the device caused by continuous operation
Allow the pressing tool to cool for at least 15 minutes after 30 minutes of
continuous operation
The procedure for pressing depends on the type of pressing attachment and is
described in detail in the user manual of the relevant system.
