Putting into operation
This charger is not designed for any use other than charging rechargeable batteries. Any other use may lead
to a fire or serious or fatal injury by electrical shock.
In order to limit the risk of damaging the power plug or cable, always disconnect by pulling on the plug and
not the cable.
Make sure that the cable is not placed in such a way that it is stepped on, tripped over or that it is not damaged
or otherwise exposed to stress.
The charger is ventilated by slot openings located in the top and bottom part of the charger. Do not place any
items on the top part of the charger and do not place the charger on such surfaces, which could block these
openings, which would lead to excessive temperatures inside the charger. Keep the charger at a sufficient
distance from sources of heat.
Do not use the charger if it has been impacted by something, or if it has fallen or been damaged in any other
way.
Do not disassemble the charger. Have the charger maintained or repaired at an authorised service centre or the
vendor. Incorrectly performed assembly may lead to a fire or serious or fatal injury by electrical shock.
In order to limit the risk of injury by electrical shock, always disconnect the charger from the mains power
socket before cleaning it. Taking the battery out of the charger does not lower this risk.
Never attempt to connect two chargers to one another.
DO NOT PLACE or use the tool in places where the temperature may reach or exceed 40 °C (places in a
garage or metal buildings in the summer period).
The charger is designed to be used with a standard domestic power voltage (230 V). Do not attempt to use
any other power voltage!
Important safety instructions for batteries
The battery is fully charged on delivery. First read the safety instructions below and follow the instruction and
charging procedures.
CAREFULLY READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND STORE THEM FOR FUTURE USE.
1. Do not burn the battery even if it is seriously damaged or completely worn out. The battery could explode in
the fire.
2. During demanding work or at high temperatures there may be small leaks of fluid from the battery cells. In
this case it is not a defect. However if the external seal is breached and the fluid comes in contact with your
skin, do the following:
Quickly wash yourself with soap and water.
Neutralise the affected area with a weak acid such as lemon juice or vinegar.
If the battery fluid gets into your eyes, flush out your eyes at least for several minutes with clean water and
immediately seek medical treatment (information for doctors: the fluid is a 25 - 35 % potassium hydroxide
solution)
3. Do not bridge the cathode and the anode battery contacts with metal objects. This could short circuit the
battery, which could destroy the battery or cause burns or a fire.
4. Charge the battery only in the charger supplied with this product.
5.
NOTE: This tool uses a Li-Ion type battery, which does not self-discharge and does not have a memory
effect.
