tions and as is specified for this particu-
lar model.
Use of chargers for applications
different from those intended could result in
hazardous situations.
f)
Charge the battery only in the chargers

This appliance is not intended for use
by persons (including children) with re-
duced physical, sensory or mental cap-
abilities, or lack of experience and know-
ledge, unless they have been given su-
pervision or instruction concerning use
of the appliance by a person responsible
for their safety.
e)
Children must be instructed not to play
with the appliance.
4.2.2 Battery charger use and care

should thus be checked at a Hilti service
center at regular intervals, especially if used
frequently for working on conductive ma-
terials.
