The hydraulic cylinder contains a plunger that can move axially. If the cylinder is filled with oil from the
bottom, the piston moves out. If the cylinder is filled from the top, the piston moves in. The direction in
which the piston moves is controlled by the so-called deadman's handle. The deadman's handle can be
rotated by the user to control the movement. If the deadman's handle is released, it returns
automatically to the neutral position and stops the movement of the tool.
In tools like cutters, spreaders and combi tools the movement of the piston drives a mechanism to make
a cutting or spreading movement.

Charging the battery pack
•
Study the instructions of the charger before charging the battery pack.
•
Only use one of the prescribed Holmatro battery chargers to charge the battery pack.

Best results and longest life of the battery pack are achieved by charging in a dry environment at a
temperature between 18 °C and 24 °C (64 °F and 75 °F).
CAUTION
The battery pack can be damaged if charged at a temperature below 0 °C or above 40 °C
(below 32 °F or above 104 °F).
•
The SOC indicator on the battery pack will indicate the state of charge of the battery pack when the
SOC indicator button is pushed.

The maximum capacity of the battery pack is only achieved once it has been charged and
discharged several times.
•
Always charge the battery pack, even if it has only been used for a short time.

The battery pack can remain connected to the battery charger for an indefinite period of time,
because it is protected against overcharging.
NOTICE
When the battery pack is not in use, it is advised to keep it connected to the battery charger
(connected to a power source) at all times. When the battery pack is full, the battery charger
automatically switches on and off at regular intervals to keep the battery level at 100%.
After deep discharge of the battery pack, charge the battery pack for 24 hours. If the battery
pack is not completely charged after 24 hours, contact your local Holmatro dealer.
