When cutting taper threads the rated current may increase for a short moment
by about 50 %, without interference of the function ot the unit.
The REMS Amigo and REMS Amigo 2 Compact drive units are equipped with
an overload protection which switches off the motor in case of overloading. In
this case, wait a few seconds and press the overload protection button (10).
REMS Amigo 22 V is equipped with an electronic overload protection which
switches off the motor in case of overloading. The LED of the machine status
check (Fig. 7 (22)) lights/fl ashes red. Work can continue when the LED lights
green again. See also section 5. Troubles.

1.9. Vibrations
Weighted effective value of acceleration 2.5 m/s²; K = 1.5 m/s²
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
CAUTION
The indicated weighted effective value of acceleration can differ during opera-
tion 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
WARNINGWARNING
Caution: Mains voltage present!
Before connecting the electric die stock, the
rapid charger or the power supply, check whether the voltage given on the
rating plate corresponds to the mains voltage. On building sites, in a wet envi-
ronment, indoors and outdoors or under similar installation conditions, only
operate the electric die stock on the mains with a fault current protected switch
(FI breaker) which interrupts the power supply as soon as the leakage current
to earth exceeds 30 mA for 200 ms.
Batteries
(Fig. 7 (23))
Total discharging by undervoltage
The Li-Ion batteries may not drop below a minimum voltage because otherwise
the bat
tery 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 a
nd
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 exhaus-
tive 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.
Machine status check, REMS Amigo 22 V
REMS Amigo 22 V is equipped with an electronic machine status check (Fig.
7 (22)) by a 2-coloured green/red LED. The LED lights green when the battery
is fully or still suffi ciently charged. The LED lights red when the battery must
be charged. If this status occurs during thread cutting, the thread cutting must
be completed with a fully charged Li-Ion battery. The LED lights red and the
REMS Amigo 22 V switches off if overloaded. After a short dwell time, the LED
lights green again and thread cutting can be continued. The LED fl ashes red
if the motor temperature has been exceeded. After a cooling time, the LED
lights green again and thread cutting can be continued. The cooling time is
reduced when the REMS Amigo 22 V is operated in idle mode. The LED lights
red if an impermissible battery has been inserted. If the REMS Amigo 22 V is
not being used, the LED goes out after approx. 2 hours but comes on again
when the device is switched back on.

(Fig. 7 (24))
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 f
or a few seconds after pressing the key
At least one LED lights f
or 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 fl ashes red, the battery must be charged.
Rapid charger
(art. no. 571585, accessory art. no. 571587)
Rapid charger
Rapid charger
The left control lamp lights up and remains green when the mains plug is
plugged in. If a battery is inserted in the rapid charger, the green control lam
p
fl ashes to indicate that the battery is charging. The green light stops fl ashing
and remains on to signal that the battery is fully charg
ed. If the red control lamp
fl ashes, the battery is defective. If a red
control lam
p comes on and stays on,
this indicates that the temperature of the rapid charge
r and/or the battery is
outside the permissible operating range of the rapid charger of 0 °C to +40 °C.
NOTICE
The rapid chargers are not suit
able for outdoor use.
2.2. Inserting the REMS quick-change die heads or plug-on heads for button
dies
Only use the original quick-change die heads or plug-on heads for button dies.
Up to thread size 1¼" the die heads are inserted into the octagonal seat of the
drive unit from the front (Fig. 2). They snap in automatically.
The die heads protude the back of the housing. This facilitates taking the die
head out of the drive unit by jolting the protuding edge against a plain surface
or edge (fi g. 3).
Inserting the REMS quick-change die head size 1" in REMS Amigo E
(Fig. 6
), REMS Amigo 22 V (Fig. 7)
The groove in the octagon of the 1" quick-change die head must be in line with
the locking pin (14) in the octagonal seat of the REMS Amigo E.
Inserting the REMS quick-change die heads sizes 1½" and 2" in the REMS
Am
igo 2 and REMS Amigo 2 Compact drive units (Fig. 4)
Remove the retaining ring (11) with a suitable tool, e.g. screwdriver. Remove
the stop ring (12) and insert the 1½" or 2" (13) REMS quick-change die head
in its place and remount the retaining ring (11) on the 1½" or 2" quick-change
die head.
CAUTION
CAUTION
Do not work without a retaining ring (11)!
There is otherwise a danger of
the die head being pushed out of the die head seat during start-cutting.
2.3. Changing d
ies in the REMS quick-change die head (Fig.
9
)
1. Clamp the
REMS
qui
ck-change die head in the vice with the octagonal seat.
2. Remove countersunk screws (15) and cover (16).
3. Knock out the REMS dies (17) carefully to the centre of the die head body.
4.
Knock the REMS die
heads (17) with the start cutting edge (A) towards the
bottom into the corresponding slots to the extent that they do not protrude
beyond the outer diameter of the die head body (18). The dies (17) and die
head bodies (18) are numbered.
Die 1 in slot 1, die 2 in slot 2, die 3 in slot 3
and die 4 in slot 4.
5. Fit the cover (16) and tighten the countersunk screws (15) lightly.
6. Carefully knock the dies (17) outwards with a soft pin (copper, brass or hard
wood) until they are in contact with the edge of the cover.
7. Tighten the countersunk screws (15).
