Disposal of old electric devices.
The European directive 2002/96/EC for waste electrical and electronic
equipment (WEEE) states that used household devices should not be
disposed of with unsorted community waste. These used devices must be
collected separately from household waste in order to increase the
percentage of recovered devices and to recycle their parts, with the goal
of reducing the negative effects on human health and on the environment.
The symbol of the crossed out garbage can will be stamped onto all
devices as a reminder of the obligation to put them in a separate garbage
collection. The consumer must consult local authorities or the vendor to
inform themselves about the manner in which their device should be
disposed of.
When the device has reached the end of its service life, make it defective by
disconnecting the power plug from the socket and cutting the cord.
This tool has a rechargeable battery that should be given to a qualified professional
when discarding the tool, to be taken apart and disposed of in an environmentally
friendly way.
Dispose of the packaging materials in an appropriate way. Contact your local authorities
about collecting points or waste separation.
