If
damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused
by poorly maintained power tools.

The use of other batteries may
result in injuries and risk of fire.
• Keep the unused battery away
from paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws and other small
metal objects, which could cause
bridging of the contacts.
A short
circuit between the battery contacts
may cause burns or fire.
• If used incorrectly, liquid may
leak from the battery. Avoid
contact with this. In the event of
accidental contact, rinse off with
water.
If the liquid gets into eyes, seek
medical assistance. Leaking battery flu
