General power tool safety warnings

WARNING

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provide with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1) Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

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

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

2) Electrical safety

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

b) 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.

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

d) 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

e) 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.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

3) Personal safety

a) 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

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

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your fi nger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

d) 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.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all time: This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair an clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

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

h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

4) Power tool use and care

a) 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.

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

c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changin accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally

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

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

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 grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and greas Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the tool in unexpected situations

5) Battery tool use and care

a) Recharge only with the charger specified 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 pack 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, lil 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 battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury

f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fi re or excessive temperature. Exposure to fi re or temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion

g) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the temperature range specified in the instructions Charging improperly or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fi re

6) Service

a) 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.

b) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.

The indicated weighted effective value of acceleration has been measured against standard test procedures and can be used by way of comparison with another device. The indicated weighted effective value of acceleration can also be used as a preliminary evaluation of the exposure

CAUTION

The indicated weighted effective value of acceleration can differ during operation from the indicated value, dependent on the manner in which the device is used. Dependent upon the actual conditions of use (periodic duty) it may be necessary to establish safety precautions for the protection of the operator.

2. Preparations for Use

2.1. Electrical connection

Note the mains voltage Before connecting the REMS reciprocating saw or the rapid charger, check whether the voltage given on the rating plate corresponds to the mains voltage. On building sites, in a wet environment, indoors and outdoors or under similar installation conditions, only operate the power tool on the mains with a fault current protection switch (FI switch) which interrupts the power supply as soon as the leakage current to earth exceeds 30mA for 200~ms

Rechargeable batteries (Fig. 1 (13))

Total discharging by undervoltage

The Li-Ion batteries may not drop below a minimum voltage because otherwise the battery could be damaged by "total discharge", see graduated charging state display. The cells of the REMS Li-Ion battery are delivered pre-charged to approx. 40% . Therefore the Li-Ion batteries must be charged before use and recharged regularly. Failure to observe this regulation of the cell manufacturer can lead to damage to the Li-Ion battery by total discharging.

Total discharging due to storage

If a relatively low charged Li-Ion battery is stored, self discharging can lead to total discharge damage of the battery after longer storage. Li-Ion batteries must therefore be charged before storing and recharged every six months at the latest and charged again before use.

NOTICE

Charge the battery before use. Recharge Li-ion batteries regularly to avoid their total discharge. The rechargeable battery will be damaged by total discharge.

Only use a REMS rapid charger for charging. New Li-Ion batteries and Li-Ion batteries which have not been used for a long time only reach full capacity after several charges. Non-rechargeable batteries may not be charged

Machine status check, REM S Tiger 22V VE, REMS Cat 22V VE

The cordless reciprocating saw is equipped with an electronic machine status check (Fig. 1 (17)) by a 2-coloured green/red LED. 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 status occurs during sawing, the sawing must be completed with a charged Li-Ion battery. The LED lights red and the cordless reciprocating saw switches off if overloaded. After a short dwell time, the LED lights green again and sawing can be continued. The LED flashes red if the motor temperature has been exceeded. After a cooling time, the LED lights green again and sawing can be continued. The cooling time is reduced when the cordless reciprocating saw is operated in idle mode. The LED lights red if an impermissible battery has been inserted.

If the cordless reciprocating saw is not being used, the LED goes out after approx. 2 hours but comes on again when the cordless reciprocating saw is switched back on.

Graduated charging state display (18) of the Li-Ion 21.6 V battery

The graduated charging state display shows the charging state 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 state of the battery. If a LED flashes red, the battery must be charged

Rapid charger Li-ion (Art. No. 571585)

The left control lamp lights up and remains green when the mains plug is plugged in. If a battery is inserted in the REMS rapid charger, the green control lamp flashes to indicate that the battery is charging. The green light stops flashing and remains on to signal that the battery is fully charged. If the red control lamp flashes, the battery is defective. If the red control lamp comes on and remains on, this indicates that the temperature of the rapid charger and / or the battery is outside the permissible range of 0^ C to +40^ C.

NOTICE

The rapid charger is not suitable for using outdoors.

2.2. Sawing with guide holder (2) (right-angled sawing)

WARNING

Pull out the mains plug or remove the battery before fitting/removing the guide holder!

Push the bearing pin (3) of the guide holder (2) into the REMS reciprocating saw/REMS cordless reciprocating saw from the side so that the limit pin of the guide holder runs in the longitudinal slit of the REMS reciprocating saw.

NOTICE

The guide holder must be used to achieve right-angle saw cuts because exact right-angled positioning and guiding of the REMS reciprocating saw/REMS cordless reciprocating saw is not possible by hand.

2.3. Hand-guided sawing

The REMS reciprocating saw/REMS cordless reciprocating saw is used without the guide holder (2). It must be pressed forcefully against the material when sawing so that the support shoe (6) is constantly in contact with the material being sawn. The material to be sawn must be secured against being fl ung aw

2.4. Selecting the suitable saw blade

In your own interest, use only REMS quality saw blades for all REMS reciprocating saws/REMS cordless reciprocating saws otherwise your warranty rights will be voided!

REMS special saw blades 2"/140-2.5 or 2"/140-3.2, 4"/200-3.2 and 6"/260-3.2 (Fig. 8) for all REMS Tiger models

Developed especially for REMS Tiger. Absolutely essential for right-angled sawing and fast disassembly of steel pipes with force-transmitting guide holder. This produces multiple thrust pressure by a fi ve-fold force-transmitting leverag REMS special saw-blades with double-sided hinge with extra wide clamping surface for exact seat, extra thick, rigid and unbendable for high stability. Coarse corrugated teeth for fast cutting. Much longer service life. Normal saw blades with one-sided hinge are useless for right-angled sawing with a guide holder because they break at the clamping point due to high thrust pressure.

REMS universal saw blade 100/150/200/300 (Fig. 8) for all REMS Tiger, REMS Cat models

For free-hand sawing and sawing with force-transmitting guide holder. Only 1 REMS universal saw blade for all sawing work instead of many different saw blades. Tenacious material, highly fl exible, also for wall-fl ush sawing. Doubl sided hinge with extra wide clamping surface for exact seat and high stability. Alternating tooth pitch (combi-teeth), very highly hardened in the teeth area. Excellent sawing performance and very long service life as a result. Also for materials that are difficult to cut, e.g. stainless steel pipes, hard cast iron pipe etc. and for sawing wood with nails, pallets. Normal saw blades with one-sided hinge are useless for the high thrust pressure when sawing with a guide holder; they break at the clamping point.

REMS saw blades for all REMS reciprocating saws

For special sawing work with metals, wood, building materials and plastics numerous REMS saw blades or different shape, length and tooth pitch with conventional (one-sided) hinge are available: See saw blade table Fig. 8.

2.5. Fitting the saw blade

WARNING

Pull out the mains plug or remove the battery before fi tting/removing the saw blade!

All REMS Tiger, REMS Cat models (Fig. 2 and Fig. 3)

Do not place the REMS reciprocating saw on the anti-kink sleeve of the connecting lead to fi t the REMS saw blade, otherwise it will be damaged! Loos the clamping screw (9) of the saw blade pressure piece (4) until the saw blade can be inserted over the centring pin. The REMS special saw blade and the REMS universal saw blade are between the two arms of the U-shaped saw blade pressure piece (Fig. 2). REMS saw blades with conventional (single) tang must lie within the recess in the base of the saw blade pressure piece (Fig. 3). Screw the saw blade pressure piece tight with the clamping screw (9) otherwise the centring pin will be damaged or sheared off. The centring pin does not have the task of holding the saw blade. This is done exclusively by clamping with the clamping screw (9). If the clamping screw (9) can no longer be tightened because its socket head or the Allen key is worn, the centring pin shears off. Therefore renew a worn clamping screw (9) and Allen key in good time

REMS Puma VE (Fig. 5.)

Do not place the REMS reciprocating saw on the anti-kink sleeve of the connecting lead to fi t the REMS saw blade, otherwise it will be damaged! Swi up the saw blade clamping lever (14) by hand and hold it. Insert the saw blade (5) either with the teeth facing down or turned 180° facing up. Release the saw blade clamping lever (14), this is spring-loaded and clamps the saw blade automatically. Check the saw blade (5) for tight fi t. The saw blade turned upwa allows sawing cuts near to a surface (Fig. 7.)

2.6. Setting the length-adjustable support shoe, REMS Puma VE (Fig. 6.) WARNING

Pull out the mains plug before adjusting the length-adjustable, tiltable support shoe (6)!

Take the Allen key out of the holder (15) and undo the two clamping screws (16). The tiltable support shoe (6) can be adjusted steplessly by 40 mm in longitudinal direction. Set the desired position, tighten the clamping screws (16), insert the Allen key in the holder (15). This adjustment possibility allows better utilisation of partially blunt saw blades and prevents the tip of the saw blade from hitting a wall/inside of a pipe (take saw blade stroke into consideration).

3. Operation

Use eye protection

Use a respirator

Use ear protection

WARNING

Suitable dust extractors, a respirator and disposable overalls must be used for work which could produce health hazardous dusts. Observe the national regulations

REMS Tiger: Switch on/off with on/off safety switch (7).

REMS "VE" reciprocating saws, REMS cordless reciprocating saws "VE" Stepless electronic stroke speed control by variable pressure on the stepless safety switch (accelerator switch) (10).

REMS Tiger SR Stepless electronic stroke speed control. Preselection of the desired number of strokes at the thumbwheel (12). Switch on/off with on/off safety switch (7).

REMS Tiger pneumatic: To overcome the on lock, first press down the latch of the lever (11) and then the lever. The number of strokes is controlled by pressing the lever with latch (11) appropriately

3.1. Work procedure for sawing with a guide holder

WARNING

Only hold the REMS reciprocating saw, REMS cordless reciprocating saw by the insulated handles ("A") (Fig. 1), not on the guide holder (2), when performing work where the tool can come into contact with concealed electric cables or its own power cable. Contact with a live cable can also put metal tools or the guide holder under voltage and lead to electric shock.

NOTICE

Only use REMS special saw blades or REMS universal saw blades (see 2.4.). Normal saw blades with one-sided hinge are useless for right-angled sawing with a guide holder because they break at the clamping point due to high thrust pressure.

Fit the guide holder as described in 2.2. Place the REMS reciprocating saw with guide holder on the pipe so that the clamping spindle with toggle (1) is vertical. Tighten the clamping spindle. Press the switch (7 or 10) at the same time as grasping the motor handle or actuate the lever with latch (11) and pull up the REMS reciprocating saw until the pipe or profil is sawn through. The start of sawing can be improved especially with large diameters (e.g. 4") by not switching on the REMS reciprocating saw until the saw blade is already in contact with the pipe. Make sure that the prism of the guide holder is always kept free from chips, otherwise the right-angled cut will be impaired. To achieve optimum sawing speed and to preserve the saw blade, only select medium thrust pressure. Heavy thrust pressure does not increase the sawing speed! REMS Tiger is equipped with an overload protection (8). This is triggered when the thrust pressure is too great; the button jumps out slightly and the REMS reciprocating saw stops. After a few seconds the overload protection can be pushed back in and the REMS reciprocating saw can be switched back on. REMS Tiger 22 V VE is equipped with an electronic overload protection, see machine status check.

3.2. Work procedure for hand-guided sawing

WARNING

Only hold the REMS reciprocating saw, REMS cordless reciprocating saw by the insulated handles ("A") (Fig. 1) when performing work where the tool can come into contact with concealed electric cables or its own power cable. Contact with a live cable can also put metal tools under voltage and lead to electric shock.

For straight or curved cuts press the tiltable support shoe (6) forcefully against the material so that the tiltable support shoe (6) is constantly in contact with the material to be sawn. Switch on the REMS reciprocating saw. Only use sharp and flatness saw blades. Even thrust pressure reduces the risk of accident and is kind on the REMS reciprocating saw and the saw blade. Always feed the connecting lead back away from the REMS reciprocating saw. Keep the REMS reciprocating saw pressed forcefully against the material to be sawn during sawing. If the saw blade jams whilst sawing, switch off the REMS reciprocating saw, widen the sawn cleft with a suitable tool and pull out the saw blade. The REMS cordless reciprocating saws are equipped with an electronic overload protection, see machine status check.

For plunge-cut sawing in material that is not too hard, e.g. wood, plastic, plastic pipes or alloy pipes, the saw blade can be plunged carefully into a surface whilst sawing (Fig. 4). Use a short saw blade. Place the switched off REMS reciprocating saw with the bottom edge of the tiltable support shoe (6) and the tip of the saw blade at the cutting point, switch on the REMS reciprocating saw and plunge the saw slowly sawing into the material. Preferably use REMS reciprocating saws with stepless electronic stroke speed control. In harder material, e.g. metal, an appropriately large hole for the saw blade should be drilled for the sawing start.

3.3. Lubricants

Do not use lubricants for normal sawing work. These hinder the ejection of chips from the sawing chase and therefore reduce the useful life of the saw blade.

REMS Spezial or REMS Sanitol for cooling and lubrication should be used exclusively for sawing stainless steel and hard cast iron pipes. It is recommended to use REMS Tiger SR and one of the REMS universal saw blades 561003 ... 561006. The guide holder is absolutely essential for right-angled sawing (see 2.2.).

4. Maintenance

Notwithstanding the maintenance described below, it is recommended to send in the power tool to an authorised REMS contract customer service workshop for inspection and periodic testing of electrical devices at least once a year. In Germany, such periodic testing of electrical devices should be performed in accordance with DIN VDE 0701-0702 and also prescribed for mobile electrical equipment according to the accident prevention rules DGUV, regulation 3 "Electrical Systems and Equipment". In addition, the respective national safety provisions, rules and regulations valid for the application site must be considered and observed

4.1. Maintenance

WARNING

Pull out the mains plug or remove the battery before repair work!

The REMS reciprocating saws are maintenance-free. The gear runs in a life-long grease fi lling and therefore needs no lubrication. Keep the saw blade holder clean. Remove chips from the housing of the saw blade holder. Remove water/moisture from the housing of the saw blade holder after every use. Lightly lubricate the saw blade holder and saw blade clamping lever (14) with machine

oil (REMS Puma VE). Change a defective locking screw (9) (except REMS Puma VE). 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 household cleaners. These often contain chemicals which can damage the plastic parts. Never use petrol, turpentine, thinner or similar products for cleaning

Make sure that liquids never get inside the REMS reciprocating saw. Never immerse the REMS reciprocating saw in liquid

4.2. Inspection/Servicing

WARNING

Before any repair work, pull the mains plug or remove the battery! This work may only be performed by qualified personne

The REMS reciprocating saws with universal motor have carbon brushes. These are subject to wear and must therefore by checked and changed by qualified specialists or an authorised REMS customer service workshop from time to time. In the battery-operated drive units, the carbon brushes of the motor are subject to wear. These cannot be replaced; the DC motor must be replaced.
