cause kickback. The inserted tool may jam if the
electrical power tool is overloaded or is held at
an angle to the workpiece.
Before you carry out any tasks on the
device, transport or store it, make sure
that the direction of rotation switch is
in the middle position (lock). To prevent
the device from starting up unintentionally.
DANGER! Take steps to ensure that
you do not hit upon any service lines
(electricity, gas, water) when work-
ing with electrical appliances. Check, if
need be with a service line detector, before you
start to cut or bore into a surface.
Original ancillaries /
accessories
Use only the ancillaries and accessories
that are detailed in the operating instruc-
tions. The use of ancillaries and accessories
other than those recommended in the operating
instructions could lead to an increased risk of per-
sonal injury for you.
Start-up
Charging the battery pack
CAUTION! Always ensure the plug is removed
from the mains socket before inserting a battery pack
into, or removing one from, the charging station.
Never charge the battery pack if the ambient
temperature is less than 10 °C or greater than
40 °C.
1. Insert the battery pack
6
into the quick-
charger
13
(see Fig. C).
2. Insert the mains plug into the mains socket. The
flashing green charge indicator LED
15
shows
that charging is in progress.
3. The charging process is completed when the
green charge indicator LED
15
light up and the
accumulator pack
6
is ready for operation.
4. If the red charge indicator LED
14
lights up, the
quick battery charger
13
is in standby mode;
the accumulator pack
6
is not connected.
5. If the red charge indicator LED
14
starts flas-
hing, this means that the accumulator pack
6
has become too hot; no charging process.
Never charge the battery pack for a second time
immediately after a fast charging process has
been completed. This can give rise to the battery
pack becoming overcharged and to a reduced
service life of the battery and charging station.
Switch the charger off for at least 15 minutes
between two successive charging procedures.
Remove the power plug from the wall socket.
