SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
WARNING (PROPOSITION 65)
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activities
contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To
reduce your exposure to these chemical: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved
safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic
particles.
Do not operate the charger on a combustible surface (e.g. paper, textiles). Risk of fire due to
heating during charging.
If the power cord for this equipment is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, a customer
service agent of the same or qualified person in order to prevent hazards.
The battery of the appliance is not fully charged at the time of delivery. It therefore needs to be fully
recharged before you use it for the first time. For the first recharge cycle we recommend that you

into a mains outlet.
When the battery is fully charged, unplug the charger from the mains and from the appliance.
Charging time is approx. 1.5 hours.
Do not charge the battery continuously since this may damage the battery cells.
Note: Repeatedly charging small capacities may damage the battery cells. Recharge the battery only
if the appliance is becoming slow.
Do not use the charger to charge nonrechargeable batteries.
