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 grasping surfaces dry, 

clean and free from oil and grease. 

Slippery 

handles and grasping surfaces do not allow 

for safe handling and control of the tool in 

unexpected situations. 

5)   Battery tool use and care 

a)   Recharge only with the charger specified by 

the manufacturer. 

A charger that is suitable 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 

designated battery packs.

 Use of any other 

battery 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 

connection 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. 

e)   Do not use a battery pack or tool that is 

damaged or modified. 

Damaged or modified 

batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour 

resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury. 

f)   Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire 

or excessive temperature. 

Exposure to fire or 

temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion. 

g)  Follow all charging instructions and do 

not charge the battery pack or tool 

outside the temperature range specified 

in the instructions. 

Charging improperly or at 

temperatures outside the specified range may 

damage the battery and increase the risk of fire. 

6)   Service 

a)   Have your power tool serviced by a 

qualified repair person using only identical 

replacement parts. 

This will ensure that the  

safety of the power tool is maintained. 

b)   Never service damaged battery packs. 

Service of battery packs should only be performed 

by the manufacturer or authorized service 

providers.

SAFETY INSTRUCTION FOR 

CUTTING

   Hold power tool by insulated gripping 

surfaces, when performing an operation 

where the cutting accessory may contact 

hidden wiring. 

Cutting accessory contacting a 

“live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the 

power tool “live” and could give the operator an 

electric shock.

SAFETY WARNINGS FOR 

BATTERY PACK

a)   Do not dismantle, open or shred cells or 

battery pack. 

b)   Do not short-circuit a battery pack. Do not 

store battery packs haphazardly in a box or 

drawer where they may short-circuit each 

other or be short-circuited by conductive 

materials. 

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 connection from one 

terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals 

together may cause burns or a fire.

c)   Do not expose battery pack to heat or fire. 

Avoid storage in direct sunlight.

d)   Do not subject battery pack to mechanical 

shock.

e)   In the event of battery leaking, do not allow 

the liquid to come into contact with the skin 

or eyes. If contact has been made, wash 

the affected area with copious amounts of 

water and seek medical advice.

f)   Seek medical advice immediately if a cell or 

battery pack has been swallowed.

g)   Keep battery pack clean and dry.

h)   Wipe the battery pack terminals with a clean 

dry cloth if they become dirty.

i)   Battery pack needs to be charged before  

use. Always refer to this instruction and use 

the correct charging procedure.

j)   Do not maintain battery pack on charge 

when not in use.

k)   After extended periods of storage, it may 

be necessary to charge and discharge 

the battery pack several times to obtain 

maximum performance.

l)   Battery pack gives its best performance 

when it is operated at normal room 

temperature 

(20 °C ± 5 °C).

m)  When disposing of battery packs, keep 

battery packs of different electrochemical 

systems separate from each other.

n)   Recharge only with the charger specified 

by POSITEC. Do not use any charger other 

than that specifically provided for use with 

the equipment. 

A charger that is suitable for one 

type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when 

used with another battery pack. 

o)   Do not use any battery pack which is not 

designed for use with the equipment.

p)   Keep battery pack out of the reach of 

children.

q)   Retain the original product literature for 

future reference.

r)   Remove the battery from the equipment 

when not in use.

s)   Dispose of properly.
