marking restrictions for third parties’
commercial transport. Prior to shipping such
products, it is necessary to communicate all
relevant transport details with a specialist
responsible for transport of dangerous
material.
At the same time, other possible details shall
be taken in consideration concerning other
countries’ laws and requirements. Make
sure to use the tape or other suitable
protection for exposed battery terminals and
pack the battery in such a way to prevent it
from moving upon transport.
k) Prior to the battery pack disposal, remove it
from the power tool and place at the
respective disposal authority. Follow the
disposal instructions for battery packs.
l) Use only genuine battery packs specified by
the producer. Use on non-compatible
battery packs may cause overheating, fire,
explosion or leak of electrolyte.
m) In case of a longer period of the power tool
being idle, remove the battery pack.
4.7 Tips and tricks for longer battery life
a) Make sure to charge the battery before it is
fully depleted. If you notice your power tool
dropping performance, stop your work and
let the battery fully charge.
b) Never charge a fully charged-up battery.
Overcharging will reduce the battery life.
c)
d)
Charge the battery at the room temperature
of 5 °C to 45 °C. Let the used, warm battery
pack cool down before charging.
In case the battery pack will sit idle for a
longer period of time (si x months and
longer), let it charge up to 40 – 60%.
4.8 Battery pack installing and removal
a) Turn off the power tool prior to the battery
installing or removal.
b) When installing and removal hold the power
tool and battery pack firmly with both hands.
Otherwise, there is a risk of either slipping
from hands and falling down which may
result in the power tool or battery pack
damage or personal injury.
c) Always install the battery pack to the power
tool in such a manner that it is fully inserted
in the respective slot. In case it is not fully
inserted, there is a risk of the battery pack
falling out from the tool resulting in the
battery damage or personal injury.
d) Do not force the battery pack into the power
tool. If you struggle to insert the battery in the
power tool easily, there is most likely another
issue to cover first. Check for other obstacles
and repeat the process.
e) Do not forget to close up the battery pack
protection cover.
f) To remove the battery, take the battery pack
out from the power tool while pressing down
the button on its front side.
g) To install the battery, align the slots in the
battery pack and power tool body and insert
the battery to its designated spot. Insert the
battery as far as possible, until the “click”
sound is pronounced.
4.9 Battery charging
The new battery is already partially charged
when produced. However, let the battery
charge before its first use to reach its full
capacity which increases slightly upon the first
few charge cycles. At this stage, it is
recommended to avoid depleting to the very
minimal battery capacity.
Always pay attention to the voltage values!
The value specified on power supply shall be
the same as the value stated on the charger.
After connecting the charger to the power
supply, the green LED light turns on. Insert
the battery pack to the charger. The green
light turns off and the
red
one turns on.
After the charging process is finished, the red
light turns off and the green one turns on
again.
4.10 Indication of remaining battery capacity
Press the battery capacity indication button
to be found on the side of the battery pack.
Three LED lights indicate the battery
capacity in the following manner:
All three LED lights are ON :
• The battery is fully charged.
Two LED lights are ON
:
•
The battery has enough power.
One LED light is ON:
•
Low charge level. Charge the battery.
All
three LED lights are flashing :
• Battery pack malfunction. Do not
attempt to charge. Dispose the
battery accordingly.
The charge level indication may differ from
the real battery charge level based on the
operating conditions and ambient
temperature.
