socket and/or remove the re-
chargeable battery before you
change the device’s settings,
change accessory parts or put
away the power tool.
Such pre-
ventive safety measures reduce the risk
of starting the power tool accidentaIly.
d) Store idle power tools out of
the reach of children and do not
allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instruc-
tions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
e) Look after the power tool and
application tool carefully. Check
for misalignment or binding
of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condi-
tion that may affect the power
tool’s operation.
If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and
clean.
Properly maintained cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges are less
Iikely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories
and tool bits etc. in accordance
with these instructions, tak-
ing into account the working
conditions and the work to be
performed.
Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
h)
Keep handles and grip surfaces
dry, clean and free from oil and
grease.
Slippery handles and grip
surfaces do not permit safe operation
and control over the power tool in un-
expected situations.
5) CAREFUL hANDLING AND USE
OF BATTERy DEVICES
a) Charge the batteries only in
chargers that are recommended
by the manufacturer.
Risk of fire if a
charger that is suitable for a specific type
of battery is used with other batteries.
b) In the power tools, use only the
batteries designed for the pur-
pose.
The use of other batteries may
result in injuries and risk of fire.
c) Keep the unused battery away
from paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws and other small
metal objects, which could
cause bridging of the contacts.
A short circuit between the battery con-
tacts may cause burns or fire.
d) If used incorrectly, liquid may
leak from the battery. Avoid
contact with this. In the event of
accidental contact, rinse off with
water. If the liquid gets into
eyes, seek medical assistance.
Leaking battery fluid may cause skin
irritations or burns.
e) Do not use damaged or altered
batteries.
Damaged or altered batter-
ies can be unpredictable and lead to
fire, explosion or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose batteries to fire
or elevated temperatures
. Fire or
temperatures over 130°C can cause
an explosion.
g) Follow all instructions for charg-
ing and never charge the bat-
tery or the battery-powered
tool outside the temperature
range stated in the operating
instructions.
Incorrect charging or
charging outside the permitted tem-
perature range may destroy the battery
and increase the risk of fire.
