Loading procedure
Do not subject the battery block
to extreme conditions such as
heat and shock. Warning: injury
hazard due to escaping electro-
lyte solution! If you come into
contact with the battery acid,
immediately rinse in water or
neutraliser and consult a doctor,
if the electrolyte has come into
contact with the eyes etc.
Only charge using the original
battery charger enclosed. Ensure
that the device is not charged for
more than 8 hours without interrup-
tions at a time. The battery and the
device could be damaged, and a
longer charging time also wastes
energy. If the device batteries are
overloaded, the guarantee claim
becomes invalid.
The outer surface of the unit and
the battery must be clean and dry
before connecting to the recharger.
Do not switch the unit on during
the recharging process.
• Charge the battery completely for 8
hours before you use it for the first
time. Do not charge up the battery in
short intervals.
• The recharger may only be used in-
doors and in dry surroundings.
• If the battery is new or has not been
used for an extended period, it must
be charged to the full and will only
reach maximum capacity after 5 full
recharging/emptying cycles. If used
properly, the battery can be recharged
up to 1000 times.
• Regular use of the battery will maximise
its life span. As soon as the blades start
to slow down, you should exchange
the battery for a full one or completely
recharge the weak battery. Avoid com-
pletely emptying the battery. Defects
resulting from improper use are not
covered by guarantee.
• If the battery seems to empty more
quickly despite a full charge, it is worn
and needs to be replaced. Only use
original replacement batteries avail-
able from the Service Centre.
• In any case, keep to the applicable
security instructions and regulations
as well as the environment protection
instructions.
1. Connect the charger cable plug
(22) with the charger socket on
the tool (8).
2. Plug the charger (21) into the
wall mains power outlet.
3. The LED (4) will glow red as
long as the tool is connected to
the mains power supply. The re-
commended charging time is 5-8
hours.
4. After the recharging process
is completed, first unplug the
charger from the wall outlet, and
then remove the charger cable
plug from the tool.
Assembling the
telescopic shaft
For packaging reasons, the tel-
escopic handle is delivered in two
sections. When connected together,
the two sections lock into each
other and cannot subsequently be
detached.
