3.4. Battery charging status check with complete discharge protection
All REMS cordless presses made as of 2011-01-01 are equipped with an
electronic battery charging status check with battery charge indication by a
2-coloured green/red LED (23). The LED lights green when the battery is fully
or still sufficiently charged. The LED lights red when the battery must be charged.
If this condition occurs during pressing and the pressing process is not finished,
the pressing must be completed with a fully charged Li-Ion battery. If the drive
unit is not used, the LED goes out after approx. 2 hours but comes on again
when the drive unit is switched back on.
3.5. Graduated charging level indicator (28) of the Li-Ion 21.6 V battery
The graduated charging level indicator shows the charging level of the battery
with 4 LEDs. At least one LED lights for a few seconds after pressing the key
with the battery symbol. The more LEDs that light green, the higher the charging
level of the battery. If a LED flashes red, the battery must be recharged.
4. Maintenance
WARNING
Notwithstanding the servicing listed below it is recommended to send in the
REMS drive units together with all the tools (e.g. pressing tongs, pressing tongs
Mini, pressing rings with adapter tongs, adapter tongs Mini, compression heads,
expanding heads) and accessories (e.g. batteries, rapid chargers) at least once
a year to an authorised REMS customer service station for inspection and
repeated inspection of electrical equipment in accordance with EN 62638:2010-08
(VDE 0702).
4.1. Inspection/repair
WARNING
Before any repair work, pull the mains plug or remove the battery! This
work may only be performed by qualified personnel.
The gearbox of the drive unit in the REMS Power-Press SE is maintenance -
free. They operate in a permanent grease filling and therefore require no
5. Trouble
For preventing damages make sure to avoid operating situations like exemplarily shown in Fig. 12 through 14, that no distortion between pressing tongs, pressing
tongs Mini, pressing rings, adapter tongs, adapter tongs Mini, fitting and drive unit occurs.
CAUTION
After the drive unit has been in storage for a long period of time, the overpressure valve must be actuated first by pressing the reset button (13) before putting back
into operation. If it is stuck or stiff, it may not be pressed. The drive unit must be handed over to an authorized REMS customer service workshop for inspection.
5.1. Fault: Drive unit does not work.
Cause:
● Worn carbon brushes (REMS Power-Press SE, REMS Power-Press,
REMS Power-Press ACC, REMS Power-Ex-Press Q & E ACC).
lubrication. The motor of the REMS Power-Press SE, REMS Power-Press,
REMS Power-Press ACC and REMS Power-Ex-Press Q & E ACC has carbon
brushes. These are subject to wear and must therefore be inspected or replaced
from time to time. Only use genuine REMS carbon brushes. The REMS Power-
Press SE drive unit has a safety slip clutch. This is subject to wear and must
therefore be checked and renewed from time to time. Use only an original
REMS safety slip clutch. All other REMS drive units (except REMS Power-Press
SE) operate electro-hydraulically. If the pressing power is insufficient or oil is
lost, the drive unit must be inspected and if necessary repaired by an authorised
REMS after-sales service facility.
NOTICE
Damaged or worn pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings, adapter
tongs, pressing heads or expanding heads cannot be repaired.
4.2. Servicing
WARNING
Before service work, pull the mains plug or remove the battery!
Keep the pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings, adapter tongs,
adapter tongs Mini pressing heads and expandin , and particularly their recep-
tacles, clean. Clean heavily soiled metal parts with the REMS CleanM (Art. No.
140119) cleaner, for example, and then protect against rust.
Clean plastic parts (e.g. housing, batteries) only with the REMS CleanM (Art. No.
140119) or a mild soap and a damp cloth. Do not use domestic cleaning agents.
These frequently contain chemicals that can attack plastic parts. On no account
use petrol, turpentine oil, thinners or similar products to clean plastic parts.
Make sure that liquids never get inside the power tool. Never immerse the
power tool in liquid.
4.2.1. Pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings, adapter tongs, adapter
tongs Mini
Pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings, adapter tongs, adapter
tongs Mini must be checked regularly for smooth action. Clean pressing tongs,
pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings and adapter tongs, adapter tongs Mini if
necessary and lightly grease the bolts (12) of the pressing jaws, pressing
segments and adapter jaws, adapter tongs Mini (Fig. 1, 15 – 19) with machine
oil. Remove deposits from the pressing contour (11). Check the proper func-
tioning of all pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings, adapter tongs,
adapter tongs Mini regularly with a test pressing with inserted pressing fitting.
A perfect pressing is only produced with full closure of the pressing tongs,
pressing tongs Mini, pressing ring or pressing segment. Full closure of the
pressing jaws (10), pressing rings (20) or pressing segment (21) both at their
tips (Fig. 1 and Fig. 15 – 19 at "A") and on the opposite side (Fig. 1 and Fig.
15 – 19 at "B") can be observed after completing the pressing. If a visible burr
is created on the pressing sleeve when closing the pressing tongs, pressing
tongs Mini, pressing ring or pressing segment, the pressing may be faulty or
leaking (see 5. Trouble).
Damaged or worn pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing rings, adapter
tongs, adapter tongs Mini may no longer be used. In case of doubt, send in the
drive machine together with all pressing tongs, pressing tongs Mini, pressing

for inspection.
4.2.2. Radial presses
Keep the press tongs receptacle clean, in particular clean the press rollers (5)
and tongs shank (2) at regular intervals and then lightly grease them with
machine oil. Check the functional safety of the drive unit regularly by making
a pressing with the press fitting that requires the greatest pressing force. If the
pressing tongs, Mini pressing tongs, pressing ring or pressing segments close
completely in this pressing (see above), the drive unit is functioning reliably.
4.2.3. Axial presses
Keep the compression heads (14) and mounting bores in the pressing device
and the pressing device itself clean.
4.2.4. Pipe expanders
Keep the expanding device (15), expanding heads (16) and expanding mandrel
(18) in REMS Akku-Ex-Press Cu ACC, REMS Akku-Ex-Press P, REMS Akku-
Ex-Press P ACC, REMS Akku-Ex-Press Q & E ACC, REMS Power-Ex-Press
Q & E ACC clean. Grease the expanding mandrel (18) lightly from time to time.
