d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamil-
iar with the power tool or these instruc-
tions to operate the power tool. Power tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may
affect the power tool's operation. If dam-
aged, have the power tool repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by poorly main-
tained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop-
erly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these instruc-
tions, taking into account the working con-
ditions and the work to be performed. Use
of the power tool for operations different from
those intended could result in a hazardous situ-
ation.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger specified
by the manufacturer. A charger that is suita-
ble for one type of battery pack may create a risk
of fire when used with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specifically des-
ignated battery packs. Use of any other bat-
tery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
c) 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 con-
nection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
6) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a quali-
fied repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.

Machine-specific
Safety Warnings
CORDLESS TACKER
B Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped
with clamping devices or in a vice is held more
secure than by hand.
B Before any work on the machine itself (e. g.
maintenance, tool change, etc.) as well as
during transport and storage, remove the bat-
tery from the power tool. There is danger of
injury when unintentionally actuating the On/Off
switch.
B Do not open the battery. Danger of short-
circuiting.
B Protect the battery against heat, e. g., also
against continuous sun irradiation and fire.
There is danger of explosion.
B Do not short-circuit the battery. There is danger
of explosion.
B Keep your fingers away from the tacker head
5. There is danger of injury when unintentionally
actuating the On/Off switch.
B Never point the machine at persons or ani-
mals. Staples or nails shot from a short distance
can cause considerable injuries.
B Do not use the machine to fasten electrical
wiring. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire
and electric shock.
BATTERY CHARGER
B Observe the mains voltage! The voltage of the
power supply must correspond with the data given
on the nameplate of the battery charger. Battery
chargers marked with 230 V can also be operated
with 220 V.
B Keep the battery charger away from rain or
moisture. Penetration of water in the battery
charger increases the risk of an electric shock.
B Keep the battery charger clean. Contamination
can lead to danger of an electric shock.
B Before each use, check the battery charger,
cable and plug. If damage is detected, do not
use the battery charger. Never open the bat-
tery charger yourself. Have repairs performed
only by a qualified technician and only using
original spare parts. Damaged battery chargers,
cables and plugs increase the risk of an electric
shock.
B Do not operate the battery charger on easily
inflammable surfaces (e. g., paper, textiles,
etc.) or surroundings. The heating of the battery
charger during the charging process can pose a fire
hazard.
