1 Basic information
For greater clarity, only the order designation FC-2#0 is used throughout this document.
For safe handling and trouble-free operation of the FC-2#0, you must be familiar with and observe the
safety notes.
1.1 Intended use
With the FC-2#0, you can either:
– Strip conductors automatically or
– Strip conductors automatically and crimp with ferrules.
Flexible conductors of class 2, 5, and 6 standard according to DIN VDE 0295 and ferrules
as loose products according to DIN 46228-4 are processed.
1.2 Work sites
WARNING: The FC-2#0 is intended solely for stripping and crimping.
In doing so, the conductor and ferrules with cross section or sleeve length according
to "Suitable ferrules and retrofit kits" on page 5 are to be used.
Only the PVC-insulated conductors may be inserted into the insertion funnel on the
FC-2#0 for processing. Under no circumstances should solid metal parts or other
similar objects be inserted. This damages the stripping blade.
Unauthorized conversions that exceed the scope of modification, and changes to the
FC-2#0 are not permitted for safety reasons.
NOTE: Correct usage includes observing all notes and complying with the
predefined operating conditions.
WARNING: The FC-2#0 may only be used
– as intended and
–
when in safe and fault-free condition.
WARNING: All persons responsible for commissioning, operating and maintenance
of
the FC-2#0 must
– be appropriately qualified and
– adhere strictly to this user manual.
NOTE: For operation and storage, avoid the following:
– humid or dusty places and
– locations exposed to high levels of heat, direct sunlight or low temperatures
(operating range: 15°C to 35°C)
NOTE:
If the machine is moved from a cold location to a warm location, condensation can
form.
• Before using the FC-2#0, open the front door and allow condensation to evaporate.

1.3 For your safety
For safety reasons, the FC-2#0 automatically switches itself off if the compressed air is
disconnected.
NOTE:
• Do not spill liquids on the FC-2#0.
• Do not expose the FC-2#0 to strong vibrations or shocks.FC-2#0 to strong
vibrations or shocks.
NOTE:
• Protect the compressed air hoses from heat, oil and sharp edges.
WARNING: The front door is installed for the safety of the operator. Under no
circumstances must it be modified, removed or bypassed using attachments.
WARNING:
• Only use filtered compressed air with a maximum pressure of 6 bar.
WARNING:
• Only operate the FC-2#0 when the front door is closed.
• Disconnect the mains plug and the compressed air plug prior to all work that
requires opening the front door (e.g., retrofitting, remedial action).
• Switch off the FC-2#0 and disconnect the device from the compressed air during a
break or when the device is not in use.
• Do not pull on the compressed air hose to disconnect the compressed air.
• Make sure that there are no foreign objects inside the housing.
WARNING:
• Before opening the housing, disconnect the mains plug and disconnect the device
from the compressed air.
