Power tool use and care
u
Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do
the job better and safer at the rate for which it was de-
signed.
u
Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
u
Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or re-
move the battery pack, if detachable, from the power
tool before making any adjustments, changing ac-
cessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
u
Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or
these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
u
Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
u
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly main-
tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
u
Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in
accordance with these instructions, taking into ac-
count the working conditions and the work to be per-
formed.
Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
u
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and
free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping
surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpected situations.
Battery tool use and care
u
Recharge only with the charger specified by the manu-
facturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type of bat-
tery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack.
u
Use power tools only with specifically designated bat-
tery packs.
Use of any other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and fire.
u
When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
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.
u
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally oc-
curs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, addi-
tionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the bat-
tery may cause irritation or burns.
u
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or
modified.
Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
u
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excess-
ive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above
130°C may cause explosion.
u
Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
battery pack or tool outside the temperature range
specified in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range may damage
the battery and increase the risk of fire.
Service
u
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
u
Never service damaged battery packs.
Service of bat-
tery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer
or authorized service providers.
Safety Warnings for Impact Wrenches
u
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the fastener
may contact hidden wiring.
Fasteners contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool
"live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
u
Use suitable detectors to determine if there are hid-
den supply lines or contact the local utility company
for assistance.
Contact with electric cables can cause
fire and electric shock. Damaging gas lines can lead to ex-
plosion. Breaking water pipes causes property damage.
u
Hold the power tool securely.
When tightening and
loosening screws be prepared for temporarily high torque
reactions.
u
Secure the workpiece.
A workpiece clamped with
clamping devices or in a vice is held more secure than by
hand.
u
Always wait until the power tool has come to a com-
plete stop before placing it down.
The application tool
can jam and cause you to lose control of the power tool.
u
In case of damage and improper use of the battery, va-
pours may be emitted. The battery can set alight or ex-
plode.
Ensure the area is well ventilated and seek medical
attention should you experience any adverse effects. The
vapours may irritate the respiratory system.
u
Do not open the battery.
There is a risk of short-circuit-
ing.
u
The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such
as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally.
An internal short circuit may occur, causing the battery to
burn, smoke, explode or overheat.
u
Only use the battery with products from the manufac-
turer.
This is the only way in which you can protect the
battery against dangerous overload.
