Instruction Manual Universal tool
EK 120UNV-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 page III)
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.
Compatability to all common crimping dies (120kN)
by using special adapters
Use of special dies and adapters including custo-
mer specifi c die designs.

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 crimping cycle.
4. Remarks in respect of the determi-
ned 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 measures1 for working near live parts must
be provided.

4.1 Operation of the unit

First you have to select the right adapter for the type of
dies you intend to use respectively the cutting blades.
Attention
After having terminated the working cycle and
prior to changing the dies remove battery to
avoid unintended use. Avoid unintended starts.
Make sure the switch is in the off position before
plugging in.
Attention
Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts.
Attention
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Attention
Use safety gear and always wear eye protec-
tion.
Attention
The crimping process can be interrupted at any
moment by releasing the trigger.
In case of error or emergency the dies/blades can be re-
turned into the starting position by actuating the retract
button (pic. 1.4).
The working cycle is terminated when either the crimping
force is reached or the cable/conductor (pic. 29, 33), DIN
rail, threaded rod is cut.
Afterwards a second working cycle can be initiated or the
it can be fi nished by opening the latch (pic. 1, 7).
Attention
After having terminated the working cycle
and prior to changing the dies/blades re-
move battery to avoid unintended use.
4.1.1 Use of crimping dies
When using the 13 style dies (see tab 2) the retaining
clips have to be actuated while the dies will be inserted
consequtively from the side into the head respectively the
adapter (see pic. 19).
During the crimping process the connecting material is
positioned in the stationary half of the die whereas the
moving part of the die is approaching the compression
point3.
After having reached the maximum crimping force the
dies return into the starting position automatically.
