STANLEY BR-Series cordless tools are thermally protected to prevent overheating. Temperature is sensed inside the tool and the
value is reported to the controller. The thermal protection does not allow the tool to operate if the tool temperature rises abnor-
mally – the thermal protector resets automatically when the tool cools down.
EN60745-1 Hand-Held Motor-Operated Electric Tools - Safety is the most applicable standard to the tools. It defines +60°C as
the limit for thermal rise over ambient of a contactable surface (e.g. if the ambient is 25°C, the surface limit is 85°C.) Since the
default limit is 85°C inside the tool regardless of ambient, no external surface can exceed this value no matter what the ambi-
ent temperature.
Controller parameter settings can have a significant effect on tool operating temperatures.

EXCESSIVE FORCE CONDITION
To Avoid Injury:
•
Only trained and qualified personnel should program controllers.
•
Never set control limits above the maximum rating of the tool.
•
Always test for proper tool operation after programming via the controller.
Ensure rivet and/or system will withstand the level of force generated by the tool. Excessive force may cause breakage and
possible personal injury.
The STANLEY Controller is used to setup the tool's fastening strategies inside Jobs and Tasks. Read the STANLEY Controller
manual to learn how to program strategies. Even though the STANLEY Controller can be used to program the BR-Series cordless
tool, the parameters are stored in the tool and not the controller. The tool can be preprogrammed in a lab or tool crib prior to
placing on line in a facility.
F.
Inactivity Timer
The BR-Series cordless tool has an inactivity timer that allows the tool to "sleep" and conserve battery power when not in use.
The inactivity timer can be enabled or disabled. If disabled, the BR-Series cordless tool will never go to sleep. This is not recom-
mended. If the inactivity timer is enabled a time value in minutes must be entered. The minimum value is 1 minute; the maxi-
mum value is 60 minutes.
