Mount the components
very carefully so as not to impair the safety
and efficiency of the machine. If in doubt, con-
tact your dealer.
For safety reasons during transportation, the lithium
ion accumulator is completely flat when delivered
and packed separately.
Ensure that the accumulator is not inserted in its
compartment.
Charge the accumulator before using the tool fol-
lowing the instructions in the “Charging the accu-
mulator” chapter.
Unpacking and complet-
ing the assembly should be done on a flat and
stable surface, with enough space for moving

4. MACHINE ASSEMBLY
• How to handle and use battery-operated power
tools properly
a) Make sure that the tool is switched off before in-
serting the battery. Inserting a battery in a power tool
which is switched on can cause accidents
b) When charging batteries, only use battery chargers
recommended by the Manufacturer. Battery charg-
ers are generally designed for use with specific types of
batteries; fire risks can occur if other types are used.
c) Use the batteries specifically designed for your pow-
er tool only. The use of other batteries may be hazardous
and cause injuries and fire risks.
d) Place all unused batteries at a distance from paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small met-
al objects as contact with the same can cause short
circuits. Short circuits among battery contacts can
lead to explosion or fires.
e) Liquid can leak from batteries when they are in bad
condition. Avoid all contact with this liquid. Rinse
thoroughly with water if accidental contact occurs.
If the liquid comes into contact with the eyes, call
a doctor immediately. Liquid leaks from batteries can
cause skin irritation and even burns.
USER INSTRUCTIONS FOR ACCUMULATORS
• General precautions
– The accumulator must never be opened.
– Never throw used batteries into a fire - EXPLOSION RISK!
– Connect the battery charger to power sockets carrying the
voltage indicated on the manufacturer’s rating plate.
– Use original accumulators only.
– The accumulator may heat up when used for a certain
length of time. Allow it to cool down before recharging it.
– Never leave the accumulator or battery charger within the
reach of children.
– Never use the battery charger in zones where flammable
vapours or substances are present.
– Recharge accumulators at a temperature of between 10°
and 40 °C only.

atures of over 40 °C.
– Never cause short circuits between the accumulator con-
tacts and never connect them to metal objects.
– When transporting accumulators, make sure the contacts
never come into contact with each other and never use
or pack them in metal containers.
– Short circuit of the accumulator can cause an explosion.
In any case, short circuits will cause severe damage to the
accumulator.
– Check the battery charger cable is not damaged on a reg-
ular basis. If the cable gets damaged, the whole battery
charger must be replaced.
– Recharge the accumulators completely before storing them
away in winter.
