into contact with the fluid. If fluid gets into the
eyes, also consult a doctor.
Leaking battery
fluid can cause skin irritation or burns.
e.
Do not use damaged or modified batteries.
Batteries which are damaged or which have
been modified may behave unpredictably, which
could lead to fire, explosion or the risk of injury.
f.
Do not expose a battery to fire or excessive
temperatures.
Fire or temperatures exceeding
130 °C may cause an explosion.
g.
Follow all instructions on charging and never
charge the battery or the cordless tool outside
the temperature range stated in the operating
instructions.
Incorrect charging or charging
outside the permitted temperature range can
destroy the battery and increase the risk of fire.
6 SERVICE
a.
Only ever have your power tool repaired by
qualified specialist staff and always use origi-
nal spare parts.
This ensures that the safety of
the power tool is maintained.
b.
Never perform maintenance on damaged bat-
teries.
Maintenance on batteries should only
ever be performed by the manufacturer or
authorised customer service centres.
c.
Only use original parts for repairs and main-
tenance.
The use of incompatible accessories
or spare parts can result in electric shocks or
other injuries.
2.2
Safety instructions for specific drills
–
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the
cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring.
Cutting accessory contacting a “live“ wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool
“live“ and could give the operator an electric
shock.
–
Use auxiliary handles supplied with the tool.
Loss of control can cause personal injury.
–
Wear ear protection.
Exposure to noise can
result in loss of hearing.
–
Use suitable detectors to determine if utility
lines are hidden in the work area or call
the local utility company for assistance.
Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and
electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead
to explosion. Penetrating a water line causes
property damage or may cause an electric
shock.
– H
armful/toxic dust may be produced during
your work (e.g. paint containing lead, certain
types of wood and metal).
Inhaling or coming
into contact with this dust may represent a
hazard for operating personnel or persons in
the vicinity. Comply with the safety regulations
that apply in your country.
Wear a P2 dust mask to protect your
health.
–
Wear suitable protection:
such as ear protec-
tion, safety goggles, a dust mask for work
which generates dust, and protective gloves
when working with raw materials and when
changing tools.
CAUTION! Power tool can block and
cause sudden kickback!
Switch off im-
mediately!
– If a tool becomes stuck in the material, it can
be removed simply by reversing the rotational
direction of the machine.
–
Do not use the power tool in the rain or in damp
surroundings.
Moisture in the power tool may
cause a short circuit and burning.
– Do not lock the ON/OFF switch permanently!

– They are also used for making preliminary
estimates regarding vibration and noise loads
during operation.
