Recycling of materials rather than waste disposal
Preserve the environment! When your power tool has reached the end of its
useful lifetime, do not dispose of it as unsorted household waste. The tool, its
accessories and packaging must be recycled in an environmentally sound way.
Deposit the tool at a municipal collection site or service workshop.

This electrical and electronic equipment is labelled with the crossed-out wheelie
bin symbol (below). It symbolises that electrical and electronic equipment must
not be disposed of as unsorted municipal waste but collected separately.
All municipalities have established separate collection facilities at recycling
stations, where you can deposit electrical and electronic equipment free of
charge, or a collection service where such equipment is collected directly from
households. For further details, contact your local municipal technical
department.
