Bevelling 32-75mm
Picture 7
Using the bevelling tool, make an even chamfer of at least 2 mm
depth at the inner pipe (see pictures 8/9).
Visual Check
Picture 8
Visually check the pipe for an even chamfer (see picture 9).
Picture 9
After bevelling, an even chamfer of at least 2 mm depth must be
visible. Only then a permanently tight connection after fitting is
ensured.
Insert Depth
When using press fittings with viewing holes in the pressure
sleeves, the marking of the insert depth does not apply. Otherwise
the insert depth has be to marked as follows:
Picture 10
Marking of the insert depth with 3-size bevelling tool for
dimensions 14-25 mm: Slide the end of the pipe into the groove on
the tool's casing to the stop (point A). For screw (compression)
fittings, the correct insert depth of the pipe is marked according to
the marks on the casing (point M).
S for screw (compression) fittings
P for press fittings
Picture 11
Insert depth with single bevelling tool for dimensions 14-25 mm:
Slide the end of the pipe into the groove on the tool's casing up to
the stop. The correct insert depth is marked at the casing's edge.
Attention!
For marking of the insert depth on the pipe, a 3 mm thick
water-resistant pen is to be used.
Pressing 14-50 mm
Picture 13
Push the pipe into the fitting until it is fully seated (see picture 15,
point A). Through the viewing holes in the sleeve you can see if
the pipe sits correctly.
Picture 14
Open the pressing jaws and insert the fitting so that it is seated
edge to edge with the jaw (see picture 15, point B). Close the jaws
and start the pressing process (see section 5).
Picture 15
Visually check that the pipe is seen through the viewing holes in
the pressure sleeve
Pressing 63-75 mm
Picture 16
Open the pressing loop and insert the fitting edge to edge (see
picture 15, point B).
Picture 17
Close pressing loop and lock it into the basic jaw.
Figure 18
Attach the pressing tool and start the pressing process (see section
4.3).
To ensure a proper pressing process and to guarantee safe and
functional use, the machine should only be used with pressing
jaws approved by Uponor.

5.4 Maintenance Instructions

Reliable performance of the pressing machine depends on careful
treatment. This represents an important condition in the creation of
a lasting and secure join. To safeguard this, the tool needs to be
maintained and serviced regularly. We would like to draw your
attention to the following points:
1. The electric hydraulic pressing unit should be cleaned after
each use, and should always be dry before it is stored.
2. In order to guarantee the proper functioning of the machine,
and to prevent faults, the pressing unit should be returned to
the manufacturer for servicing after the period of one year, or
after 10,000 pressings. (see chapter 4.3)
3. Both the battery and the charger should be protected against
humidity and foreign bodies.
4. The bolt connections and the drive rolls and their guides should
be lightly oiled.
5. Regularly check, or have it checked that the unit is functioning
properly.
6. Always keep the pressing jaws clean. Remove any dirt with a
brush.
To avoid possible malfunctions, we offer a full manufacturer's
service. This consists of disassembly, cleaning, the replacement of
any worn-out parts, re-assembly and a final check. Only a clean
and properly-functioning pressing system can guarantee a
permanent, leak-free join.
Within the framework of the intended usage of the unit, only the
pressing jaws (pos. 10) can be changed by the customer.
Attention
Do not open the unit!
If the seals are damaged, the warranty is invalidated.
5.5 Guide for the use of the battery and charger
The charger is run with a nominal voltage of 230V and a frequency
of 50Hz. New batteries must be charged prior to use. To charge
the battery, the charger needs to be connected to the mains, and the
battery inserted into it. Charge time is one hour, respectively 15
min with our quick charger. The charge level of the battery can be
checked by an LED on the charger:
Green: battery is charged
Red: battery is discharged and is currently being charged
Flashing: battery is not inserted correctly or is too hot. An
acoustic signal also occurs.
Push the battery into the charger so that its polarity corresponds
with that of the charger. If the battery is correctly positioned, the
LED changes from green to red and the charging process begins.
When charging is complete, the LED changes back to green and an
acoustic signal sounds for about 5 seconds.
No other types of battery, for example dry cell batteries or car
batteries, can be used either with the machine or with the charger.
The battery should be recharged when the speed of the machine
drops noticeably. Do not recharge a partially discharged battery as
a precaution.
If you are charging a battery which has recently been used or which
has been lying in the sun for some time, the LED may flash red. In
this case, wait for a while. The charging process will commence as
soon as the battery has cooled down.
If the LED flashes red and green and an acoustic signal sounds for
20 seconds, it is not possible to charge the battery. Either the poles
of the battery or the charging unit are dirty, or the battery is worn
out or damaged. If you want to charge two batteries, one after the
other, wait for 15 minutes before charging the second.
Avoid exposure to temperature fluctuations under 0°C and above
40°C. Such temperatures may damage the battery or even the tool
itself. The optimal operating temperature range is 15-25°C.
