Tool Maintenance
Carry out basic inspection of the pressing device and jaws
prior to each use to ensure they are clean and free from
debris and dirt. The pressing jaws should be visually inspected
to ensure there are no cracks. If there are any cracks in the
pressing jaws, do not use them, as there is risk of the jaws
shattering and potential injury from flying fragments. It is
recommended to always wear appropriate eye protection
whenever using the pressing device. When inspecting the
pressing jaws, also ensure that there are no foreign material
deposits and that the contours of the jaw surfaces are in order.
Failure to do this may result in damage to the jaws and/or the
pressing device. Always remove the battery before performing
regular cleaning and maintenance work.
Regular application of light machine oil to the moving parts of
the jaws, adaptor jaws and collars and general application of
anti-corrosive spray is recommended to maintain a serviceable
condition and function.
The pressing device, jaws and batteries must be serviced
at least within 35,000 presses for the KemPress Small Tool
(KPSA2) and every 2 years for the KemPress Large Tool (KPL3)
and Extra Large Tool (KPXL2). It is recommended to have the
press tool, jaws, adaptor jaws and collars inspected by Kembla
Hong Kong at least once per year. Failure to have the required
services carried out may affect the warranty.
