Battery Charging
f
Use only the battery chargers listed on the
accessories page.
Only these battery charg-
ers are matched to the lithium ion battery of
your power tool.
Note:
The battery is supplied partially charged.
To ensure full capacity of the battery, complete-
ly charge the battery in the battery charger be-
fore using your power tool for the first time.
The lithium ion battery can be charged at any
time without reducing its service life. Interrupt-
ing the charging procedure does not damage the
battery.
The Li-ion battery is protected against deep dis-
charging by the “Electronic Cell Protection
(ECP)”. When the battery is empty, the machine
is switched off by means of a protective circuit:
The inserted tool no longer rotates.
Do not continue to press the
On/Off switch after the ma-
chine has been automatically switched off.
The
battery can be damaged.
The battery is equipped with a NTC temperature
control which allows charging only within a tem-
perature range of between 0 °C and 45 °C. A
long battery service life is achieved in this man-
ner.
Observe the notes for disposal.
Removing the Battery
The battery
5
is equipped with two locking lev-
els that should prevent the battery from falling
out when pushing the battery unlocking button
6
unintentionally. As long as the battery is in-
serted in the power tool, it is held in position by
means of a spring.
To remove the battery
5
, press the unlocking
button
6
and pull out the battery toward the
front.
Do not exert any force.
Changing the Tool (see figure A)
f
Before any work on the machine (e. g.,
maintenance, tool change, etc.) as well as
during transport and storage, set the rota-
tional direction switch to the centre posi-
tion.
Unintentional actuation of the On/Off
switch can lead to injuries.
