f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and gripping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and gripping surfaces prevent safe handling and control of the
power tool in unforeseeable situations.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specifi ed by the manufacturer. A charger
that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fi re when used
with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specifi cally designated battery packs. Use of any
other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fi re.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that
can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery
terminals together may cause burns or a fi re.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid
contact. If contact accidentally occurs, fl ush with water. If liquid contacts
eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
e) Do not use a damaged or modifi ed battery. Damaged or modifi ed batteries
can behave unexpectedly and lead to fi res, explosions or injuries.
f) Do not expose a battery for fi re or high temperatures. Fire or temperatures
above 130°C (265°F) can cause an explosion.
g) Follow all the instructions for charging and never charge the battery or the
cordless tool outside the temperature range specifi ed in the operating
instructions. Incorrect charging or charging outside the permitted temperature
range can destroy the battery and increase the fi re risk.
6) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool
is maintained.
b) Never service damaged batteries. All maintenance of batteries should only be
carried out by the manufacturer or authorised customer service points.
Safety instructions for electric pipe and Cordless
Pipe Cutting Machines
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
● Do not use the power tool if it is damaged. There is a danger of accident.
● Only connect the power tool of protection class I to a socket/extension lead
with a functioning PE conductor. There is a danger of electric shock.
● Do not overload the power tool, do not use damaged cutting wheels and
cut with a reasonable feeding pressure. The power tool and the cutting wheel
are subject to heavier wear by too high feeding pressure and can be damaged.
A too high feeding pressure, the ends of the pipe to be cut are pressed further
inwards causing constriction of the cross section.
● Do not reach into moving parts in the cutting area and in the area of the
pipe rest (6) and the material rest(s). There is a risk of injury.
● Use REMS Herkules 3B (accessory, Art. No. 120120), REMS Herkules Y
(accessory, Art. No. 120130) material rest(s) to support long pipes at both
ends if necessary and align these exactly to the pipe rest (6) of the power
tool. This reduces off-centre running of the pipes and the cut pipes do not fall
onto the fl oor.
● Check that the pipes are running true before cutting them. Cutting pipes that
are not straight causes imbalance and the pipe or pipe rest can fall over. The
pipe can also slip off the material rest, the power tool can move and the cutting
wheel can be damaged. Danger of injury.
● Protect persons accompanying the work against the rotating pipe during
cutting. Danger of injury.
● Only allow trained persons to use the power tool. Apprentices may only use
the power tool when they are over 16, when this is necessary for their training
and when they are supervised by a trained operative.
● Children and persons who, due to their physical, sensory or mental abili-
ties or lack of experience and knowledge are unable to operate the power
tool safely may not use this power tool without supervision or instruction
by a responsible person. Otherwise there is a risk of operating errors and
injuries.
● Never let the power tool operate unattended. Switch off the power tool
during longer work breaks, pull out the mains plug/battery. Electrical devices
can cause hazards which lead to material damage or injury when left unattended.
● Check the power cable, extension leads of the power tool and the power
supply regularly for damage. Have these renewed by qualifi ed experts or an
authorised REMS customer service workshop in case of damage.
● Only use approved and appropriately marked extension leads with a suffi -
cient cable cross-section. Use extension leads up to a length of 10 m with
cable cross-section 1.5 mm², from 10 – 30 m with cable cross-section 2.5 mm².

Safety instructions for Batteries
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions may result in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
● Only use the battery in the REMS power tool. Only then is the battery safe
from dangerous overloading.
● Only use original REMS batteries with the voltage specifi ed on the rating plate.
Using other batteries can lead to injuries and risk of fi re due to exploding batteries.
● Use the battery and the rapid charger only in the specifi ed operating
temperature range.
● Only recharge REMS batteries in the REMS rapid charger. There is a risk of
fi re if an unsuitable battery charger is used.
● Charge the battery to full capacity with the rapid charger before using for
the fi rst time. Batteries are delivered partly charged.
● Never charge batteries unattended. Battery chargers and batteries can cause
hazards which lead to material damage and/or injury when charged unattended.
● Insert the battery into the battery compartment straight and without force.
There is a risk of bending the battery contacts and damaging the battery.
● Protect the batteries against heat, sunlight, fi re, moisture and wet. There is
a risk of explosion and fi re.
● Do not use the batteries in areas where there is a risk of explosion and in
the vicinity of infl ammable gases, solvents, dust, fumes, liquids for example.
There is a risk of explosion and fi re.
● Do not open the battery or modify its construction. There is a risk of explosion
and fi re due to short-circuiting.
● Do not use batteries with damaged housings or damaged contacts. Damage
to or improper use of the battery can cause fumes to escape. The fumes can irritate
the respiratory tracts. Let in fresh air and consult a doctor in case of symptoms.
● Fluid can leak from the battery when used improperly. Do not touch the
fl uid. Leaking fl uid can cause skin irritation and burns. Rinse off immediately
with water in case of contact. Also consult a doctor if the fl uid gets into the eyes.
● Observe the safety instructions on the battery and the rapid charger.
● Keep unused batteries away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws
or other small metal objects which could cause bridging of the contacts.
There is a risk of explosion and fi re due to short-circuiting.
● Remove the battery before stowing/storing the power tool for long periods
of time. Protect the battery contacts against short-circuiting, e.g. with a cap.
● Do not throw defective batteries in the normal household waste. Hand the defec-
tive batteries over to an authorised REMS contract service workshop or a recognised
disposal company. Observe the national regulations. See also page 6. Disposal.
● Keep batteries out of reach of children. Batteries can be life threatening if
swallowed, seek medical assistance immediately.
● Avoid contact with leaking batteries. Leaking fl uid can cause skin irritation
and burns. Rinse off immediately with water in case of contact. Also consult a
doctor if the fl uid gets into the eyes.
● Take the batteries out of the power tool when they are empty. This reduces
the risk of fl uids escaping from the batteries.
● Never recharge the non-rechargeable batteries, open them, throw them on
fi res or create a short-circuit. The batteries can cause fi res and burst. There
is a risk of injury.
