    What to do if my Max RE-BAR TIER RB518 is not working?
    • D
      David BentleyAug 18, 2025
      If your Max Power Tool stops operating, several factors could be at play. First, the battery might be completely empty; in this case, perform a normal charge. The electrode plate may be oxidized; try polishing the terminal part of the battery pack with a dry cloth. Ensure the curl guide is fully closed. Check for any binding wire entangled around the twist section, and if found, turn off the power and remove the wire from inside the curl guide. Verify that the battery is not empty and perform a normal charge if needed. Finally, if the battery pack was inserted while the main switch was on, set the main switch to OFF, then ON.

    Why is my Max RE-BAR TIER RB518 not sending wire?

      Melissa EvansAug 21, 2025
      If the Max Power Tool isn't sending wire, make sure the curl guide is fully closed. If the tie-wire has run out, set a new one. A wire may be caught inside the reel, so remove any fray on the reel. Also, the cutter section might be blocked by a foreign substance; wipe it with a dry cloth or blow air on it.

      If the Max Power Tool stops sending wire halfway, make sure the tie-wire is properly set in the tool. Ensure you are using the designated binding wire, MAX Tie-Wire TW898. Check for any binding wire entangled inside the reel and remove any fray.

    Why does the wire get entangled in my Max RE-BAR TIER RB518 Power Tool?
    • Y
      yguzmanAug 27, 2025
      If the Max Power Tool experiences wire entanglement, it could be due to several reasons. The wire may be hitting reinforcing bars, so pay attention to avoid this during binding. Binding wire might be entangled around the twist section; turn off the power and remove the binding wire inside the curl guide. Weak binding power could also be a factor; use an appropriate diameter scope. Improper application of the machine, such as incorrect handling, can also cause entanglement; turn the torque dial in + and insert in a vertical direction, using it at a 45° tilt.

    Why is the curl disordered and steps out of curl guide of Max RE-BAR TIER RB518 Power Tool?
    • L
      leah25Aug 31, 2025
      If the curl from your Max Power Tool is disordered and steps out of the curl guide, it might be because the wire is hitting reinforcing bars and being repelled. Pay attention to prevent the wire from hitting reinforcing bars during binding.

    Why is twisting-off taking place with my Max RE-BAR TIER RB518?
    • M
      michaelsanchezSep 7, 2025
      If twisting-off occurs with the Max Power Tool, it could be because the reinforcing bars are not of the designated size. Use an appropriate diameter scope. It may also result from erroneous handling, such as improper application of the machine. Turn the torque dial in – (minus) and insert in a vertical direction, using it at a 45° tilt.
