RP 210 Press Tool
Pressing at temperatures down to 0°F (-20°C) can be
done by warming the 1.1Ah battery above 15°F (-10°C) or
using a larger capacity battery (2.2Ah or 3.3Ah).
The red and green LED's on the tool will glow when the
tool temperature is between 0°F (-20°C) and 15°F (-10°C).
If using a 1.1Ah battery, the tool may not be able to
press the connection completely. If this occurs, the tool will
stop in the middle of the press cycle and will not release
from the connection. To remove the tool from the con-
nection, press the pressure release button on the right
hand side of the tool (shown in Figure 11) . This con-
nection then must be repressed while using either a
1.1Ah battery above 15°F (-10°C) or using a 2.2Ah
or 3.3Ah battery to insure a complete connection.
To use the press tool between 0°F (-20°C) and 15°F
(-10°C) either:
• Use a 2.2Ah or 3.3Ah battery
• Or maintain the 1.1Ah battery temperature above
15°F (-10°C). This can be done by placing the bat-
tery in an interior pocket when not in use or allow-
ing the battery to sit in a conditioned room until it is
sufficiently warm.
If the tool temperature is below 0°F (-20°C), only the red
LED will be on and the tool will not operate unless warmed
to above 0°F (-20°C).
