Proxxon LHW/A Manual De Instrucciones página 14

• Do not put the battery in open fi re! The bat-
tery can explode.
• Never subject the battery to liquids!
Caution!
Please note that your Proxxon power tool may
only be operated with the appropriate Proxxon
battery and that the charger is to be used exclu-
sively for the charging of these batteries.
Furthermore, no other charger may be used
to charge the Proxxon battery: The respective
Proxxon components are optimally coordinated.
Please note: The device, battery and charge are
also separately available at retailers!
When delivered, the battery is partially char-
ged and must be charged completely before
commissioning the device. To do so, proceed
as follows:
1. Insert the plug of the charger.
2. Insert battery 1 in the charger 2 as shown
in Fig. 2.
3. The yellow light-emitting diode 3 signals
the charging process. When completed, the
green light-emitting diode 4 lights up.
4. Remove the completely charged battery
from the charger.
5. Insert battery 1 as shown in Fig. 3 in the
housing opening of the device until it en-
gages.
To protect the battery from harmful total di-
scharge while in operation, the charge status
is permanently monitored electronically and the
device will switch off before it reaches the cri-
tical discharge condition. The battery will now
need to be recharged. Do not attempt to put the
device back into operation with a discharged
battery!
6. To charge, press the release buttons 2, pull
out the battery to the rear and carry out
steps 1-5.
The charging process can be interrupted at any
time and continued without damage to the battery.

Caution!
Drastically reduced operating times after the
charging process indicates that the battery
needs to be replaced!
If after inserting the battery into its designated
opening the light-emitting diode fl ashes instead
of glowing yellow continuously, the cause may
be a too high temperature, a defect, or the total
discharge of the battery.
• If the battery is too hot, the charging process
will start automatically after it cools down.
• If, on the other hand, the battery has a nor-
mal temperature but is totally discharged, the
charger will check if it still draws power or it
if is already defective.
• If the battery can be recovered, the yellow
light-emitting diode will glow continuously
after some time, signalling the successful
charging process.
• If the yellow light-emitting diode fl ashes, the
battery is defective and needs to be disposed
of; see also "Note on disposal within the EU"
later on in these instructions.
General handling of the device:
CAUTION!
• Do not work with damaged or worn bits and
cutters! Make sure the tools are in perfect
condition. Damaged or worn tools can break
and cause injuries!
• Never press the lock button if the bits and
cutters and are still rotating.
• Please note: The utilised bits and cutters may
not exceed a maximum diameter of 50 mm!
• Make sure that the permissible maximum
speed of the bits and cutters does not un-
dershoot the speed of the device! The tool
can break when the maximum permissible
speed is exceeded. Flying parts can cause
damage and severe injuries!
• Never work without dust protection mask and
safety glasses. Some dusts have a hazardous
effect! Materials containing asbestos may not
be machined!
• Do not work with damaged tools!
• Ensure the work piece is fi xed securely! Loo-
