Instruction Manual Cutting Tool
ESG 85-L ESG 105-L
A white LED illuminates the working space after ac-
tivating the trigger. It automatically switches off 10
sec. after releasing the trigger. This feature can be
deactivated (see tab.1)
The compact ergonomically formed design consists
2K
of 2 components. The grip area is rubber coated
and therefore slip resistent. The housing design is
optimized in respect of the center of gravity which
improves the handling and supports fatique-proof
working.
All tool functions can be controlled by one trigger.
This results in an easy handling and a better grip
compared to a two button operation.
Li-Ion batteries do neither have a memory effect nor
self discharge. Even after long periods of non ope-
ration the tool is always ready to operate. In addition
we see a lower power weight ratio with 50% more
capacity and shorter charging cycles compared to
NiMH batteries.
The oil used in our tool is particularly environmen-
tally friendly and and has been rewarded
Angel". The oil is also suitable for low temperatures
and has excellent lubrication characteristics

3.3 Description of the tool indication

This tool is equipped with a special circuit board incorpo-
rating several important features to inform the user about
the current status of the unit. Please see Table 1 for more
details.
Prior to operating the unit the charging level of the battery
(pic. 1.2) should have been tested. A low charging level
can be detected by the fl ashing of the LED (pic. 1.1) for
20 s at the end of a cutting cycle.
4. 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 immedi-
ate assembly area of the user. If this not possible special
precaution measures (see EN 50110-1) for working near
live parts must be provided.
Do not use this tool when you are tired, on drugs, had
alcohol or if you are medicated.

Attention
Use safety gear and always wear eye protec-
tion.
After having completed the cut the blades return into the
starting position by briefl y actuating the retract button
(pic. 1.4) once which saves you battery capacity.
Attention
The cutting process can be interrupted at any
moment by releasing the trigger.

4.2 Explanation of the application range

Our electric-hydraulic cutting tool can cut reinforced
copper and aluminium conductors or cables up to
a maximum diameter of 85 mm/105 mm. The cut-
ting tool Ø85 mm is not able to cut some reinforced
cables beyond 70 mm diameter because of the limi-
ted cutting force of 60 kN.
Attention
Do not cut ACSR, guy wire, wire ropes and rein-
forcing bars. This might damage the blades!
„The Blue
If different conducting materials have to be cut, please
contact the manufacturer.
The hand held tool is not supposed to be restrained in a
vise. It is not allowed to use the tool in a stationary appli-
cation. Complying certain conditions the unit can be ope-
rated stationary with our presentation support EKST-L.
The conditions can be taken from the instruction manual
of the EKST-L.
The tool is not designed for continued cutting operations.
After a sequence of approximately 30-40 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 infl ammab-
le or explosive liquids and materials
Attention
Electric-hydraulic cutting tools should not be
operated in pouring rain or under water.
Attention
Use safety glasses when cutting fortifi ed
conductors
Attention
Do not cut live cables or conductors.
This is not an insulated tool.
