Safety instructions
WARNING
Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provid-
ed with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-
operated (cordless) power tool.
Electrical safety
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will in-
crease the risk of electric shock.
Using and handling the rechargeable tool
a) Only charge the batteries with battery chargers recommended by the manufacturer. A bat-
tery charger that is suitable for a particular type of battery poses a fire hazard when used with
other batteries.
b) Only use the batteries in power tools that are designed for them. The use of other batteries
can lead to injuries and a risk of fire.
c)
Keep the unused battery away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small
metal objects that could cause a short-circuit between the contacts. A short-circuit between
the contacts of the battery could result in burns or fires.
d) Liquid may leak from the battery if used incorrectly. Avoid contact with it. In case of acci-
dental contact, rinse with water. If the liquid gets into your eyes, seek additional medical
attention. Leaking battery fluid may cause skin irritation or burns.
e) Do not use a damaged or modified battery. Damaged or modified batteries can behave unpre-
dictably and cause fire, explosion or injury.
f)
Do not expose a battery to fire or excessive temperatures. Fire or temperatures above 130°C
may cause an explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions and never charge the battery or rechargeable tool outside
the temperature range specified in the operating manual. Incorrect charging or charging out-
side the approved temperature range can destroy the battery and increase the risk of fire.
Service
a) Only have your power tool repaired by qualified specialists and only with original spare
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
