Safety and Ecological Notes for Disposal
• Dispose of replaced parts in accordance with local regulations.
• For machines using replaceable lithium batteries:
When keeping used lithium batteries in order to dispose of them later, do not put more than 100
batteries per sealed box. Storing larger numbers or not sealing them apart may lead to chemical
reactions and heat build-up.
The danger of explosion exists if a battery of this type is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the
same or an equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Discard used batteries in
accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Batteries
Always replace a battery with the same type of battery prescribed for use with the color controller unit.
Replacing a battery with any type other than the one prescribed for use could cause an explosion.
• Never discard used batteries by mixing them with other batteries or other refuse.
• Always remove used batteries from the work site and dispose of them in accordance with local
laws and regulations regarding the disposal of such items.
