fect the power tool’s operation.
If damaged, have the power tool
repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and
clean. Properly maintained cutting tools
with sharp cutting edges are less Iikely to
bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories
and tool bits etc. in accordance
with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions
and the work to be performed.
Use of the power tool for operations dif-
ferent from those intended could result in
a hazardous situation.
5) CAREFUL HANDLING AND USE OF
BATTERY DEVICES
a) Charge the batteries only in charg-
ers that are recommended by the
manufacturer. Risk of fire if a charger
that is suitable for a specific type of bat-
tery is used with other batteries.
b) In the power tools, use only the
batteries designed for the pur-
pose. The use of other batteries may
result in injuries and risk of fire.
c) Keep the unused battery away
from paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws and other small
metal objects, which could cause
bridging of the contacts. A short
circuit between the battery contacts may
cause burns or fire.
d) If used incorrectly, liquid may leak
from the battery. Avoid contact
with this. In the event of accidental
contact, rinse off with water. If the
liquid gets into eyes, seek medical
assistance. Leaking battery fluid may
cause skin irritations or burns.
6) SERVICE
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.
7) SPECIAL SAFETY DIRECTIONS FOR
BATTERY-OPERATED TOOLS
a) Ensure that the device is switched
off before inserting the battery.
Inserting a battery into a power tool that is
switched on may result in accidents.
b) Recharge the batteries indoors
only because the battery charger
is designed for indoor use only.
c) To reduce the electric shock haz-
ard, unplug the battery charger
from the mains before cleaning
the charger.
d) Do not subject the battery to
strong sunlight over long periods
and do not leave it on a heater.
Heat damages the battery and there is a
risk of explosion.
e) Allow a hot battery to cool before
charging.
f) Do not open up the battery and
avoid mechanical damage to the
battery. Risk of short circuit and fumes
may be emitted that irritate the respiratory
tract. Ensure fresh air and seek medical as-
sistance in the event of discomfort.
g) Do not use non-rechargeable bat-
teries!
