RONIX 2035 (01) PDF Document

The symbols used for the RONIX 2035 are:

READ INSTRUCTION MANUAL: Indicates that you should read the instruction manual before use.

DOUBLE INSULATION: Indicates that the tool is double-insulated, which allows it to be used from sockets without an earth wire.

The RONIX 2035 tool is intended for fastening bolts and nuts.

The RONIX 2035 should be connected only to a power supply of the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate. It can only be operated on a single-phase AC supply. The tool is double-insulated in accordance with European Standard and can, therefore, also be used from sockets without an earth wire.

1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.

2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

4. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

5. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

6. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

8. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

9. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

10. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

11. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

12. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

13. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

14. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

15. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce dust-related hazards.

16. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

17. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

18. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

19. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

20. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

21. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

22. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, 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.

23. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

24. Follow instruction for lubricating and changing accessories.

25. Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.

1. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of tool “live” and shock the operator.

2. Wear ear protectors.

3. Check the socket carefully for wear, cracks or damage before installation.

4. Hold the tool firmly.

5. Always be sure you have a firm footing. Be sure no one is below when using the tool in high locations.

6. The proper fastening torque may differ depending upon the kind or size of the bolt. Check the torque with a torque wrench.

CAUTION: Before plugging in the RONIX 2035, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the «OFF» position when released.

To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. The tool speed is increased by increasing pressure on the switch trigger. To stop the tool, release the switch trigger.

Hold the RONIX 2035 only by the handle when performing an operation. Do not touch the metal part.

Always use the correct size socket for bolts and nuts. An incorrect size socket will result in inaccurate and inconsistent fastening torque and/or damage to the bolt or nut.

CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before installing or removing the socket.

For a socket without O-ring and pin:

To install the socket, push it onto the anvil of the tool until it locks into place. To remove the socket, simply pull it off.

Hold the tool firmly and place the socket over the bolt or nut. Turn the tool on and fasten for the proper fastening time. The proper fastening torque may differ depending upon the kind or size of the bolt, the material of the workpiece, etc.

NOTE: When fastening a screw M10 or smaller, carefully adjust pressure on the switch so that the screw is not damaged.

Follow these guidelines:

• Hold the tool pointed straight at the bolt or nut without applying excessive pressure.

• If you fasten the bolt for a time longer than shown in the reference figures in the manual, the bolt or the socket may be overstressed or damaged. Before starting your job, always perform a test operation to determine the proper fastening time for your bolt. For bolts larger than M10, this test is especially important to prevent trouble with the socket or bolt.

• After fastening, always check the torque with a torque wrench.

The fastening torque of the RONIX 2035 is affected by a wide variety of factors, including voltage. A voltage drop will cause a reduction in the fastening torque.

Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly. Replace them when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders. Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same time. Use only identical carbon brushes.

To replace them, use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and secure the brush holder caps.

CAUTION: The following accessories or attachments are recommended for use with your RONIX 2035. The use of any other accessories or attachments might present a risk of injury to persons. Only use an accessory or attachment for its stated purpose.

Recommended accessories include:

• Sockets

• Extension bar

• Universal joint
