Service
•
Have your tool repaired only by authorized specialists using original
replacement parts. This will ensure that your tool remains safe to use.
Careful handling and use of cordless equipment
•
Ensure that the equipment is switched off before you insert the
battery. Inserting a battery into an electric tool that is switched on
can cause accidents.
•
Only charge the batteries in chargers that are recommended by
the manufacturer. A charger that is designed for a certain type of
battery may pose a fire risk if it is used with other types of batteries.
•
Use only the correct batteries in the electric tools. The use of other
batteries may result in injuries and a fire risk.
•
Keep unused batteries away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws and other metallic objects that could cause a short circuit
between the contacts. A short circuit between the battery contacts
may cause burns or a fire.
•
In case of incorrect use, fluid may escape from the battery. Avoid
contact with it. If you touch it by mistake, rinse the affected area
with water. If you get the fluid in your eyes, also seek medical
advice. Leaking battery fluid can cause skin irritation or burns.
Additional safety instructions
•
The battery pack supplied with your cordless tool is not charged.
The battery pack has to be charged before you use the tool for
the first time.
•
The battery pack does not reach its maximum capacitance until it
has been charged and discharged approximately five times.
•
Battery packs lose their charge even when they are not being used.
Regular charging is therefore recommended.
•
Please check the data marked on the rating plate of the battery
charger. Be sure to connect the battery charger to a power supply
with the voltage marked on the rating plate. Never connect it to
a different mains voltage.
