other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, 

nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can 

make a connection from one terminal to another.

 

Shorting  the  battery  terminals  together  may  cause 

burns or a fire.

 

„

Under  abusive  conditions,  liquid  may  be  ejected 

from  the  battery;  avoid  contact.  If  contact 

accidentally  occurs,  flush  with  water.  If  liquid 

contacts  eyes,  additionally  seek  medical  help.

tool can differ from the declared total value depending 

on the ways in which the tool is used. Need to identify 

safety measures to protect the operator that are based 

on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions 

of  use  (taking  account  of  all  parts  of  the  operating 

cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off 

and  when  it  is  running  idle  in  addition  to  the  trigger 

time).
