Safety information

DANGER: Read all the safety information and  instructions. Failure to adhere to the safety  information and instructions set out below  may result in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury. Keep all the safety information and instructions in a safe place for future use.

General safety information for power tools

The term “power tool“ used in the safety  regulations refers to power tools operated from  the mains power supply (with a power cable) and  to battery operated power tools (without a power  cable).

1. Work area safety
   • Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
   • Do not operate power tools in explosive  atmospheres, such as in the presence of  flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
   • Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
   • Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do  not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodifi ed plugs  and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
   • Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your  body is earthed or grounded.
   • Do not expose power tools to rain or wet  conditions. Water entering a power tool will  increase the risk of electric shock.
   • Do not abuse the cord. Never use the  cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.  Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
   • When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for  outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
   • If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit interruptor (GFCI) protected  supply. Use of an GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.
3. Personal safety
   • Stay alert, watch what you are doing and  use common sense when operating a  power tool. Do not use a power tool while  you are tired or under the infl uence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of  inattention while operating power tools may  result in serious personal injury.
   • Use personal protective equipment.  Always wear eye protection. Protective  equipment such as dust mask, non-skid  safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection  used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
   • Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure  the switch is in the Off -position before  connecting to power source and/or  BATTERY pack, picking up or carrying the  tool. Carrying power tools with your fi nger on  the switch or energizing power tools that have  the switch on invites accidents.
   • Remove any adjusting key or wrench  before turning the power tool on. A wrench  or a key left attached to a rotating part of the  power tool may result in personal injury.
   • Do not overreach. Keep proper footing  and balance at all times. This enables  better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
   • Dress properly. Do not wear loose  clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,  clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
   • If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly  used. Use of these devices can reduce dust related hazards.
   • Do not let familiarity gained from frequent  use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety  principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.
4. Power tool use and care
   • Do not force the power tool. Use the  correct power tool for your application.  The correct power tool will do the job  better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
   • Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off . Any power tool  that cannot be controlled with the switch is  dangerous and must be repaired.
   • Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack,  if detachable, from the power tool before  making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
   • Store idle power tools out of the reach  of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these  instructions to operate the power tool.  Power tools are dangerous in the hands of  untrained users.
   • Maintain power tools and accessories.  Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and  any other condition 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.
   • Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp  cutting edges are less likely to bind and are  easier to control.
   • Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with  these instructions and in the manner  intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.  Use of the power tool for operations different from intended could result in a hazardous situation.
   • 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
   • 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.
   • Use power tools only with specifically designed battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
   • 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.
   • 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.
   • Do not use a BATTERY pack or tool that  is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, EXPLOSION or risk of injury.
   • Do not expose a BATTERY pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 266°F (130°C) may  cause explosion.
   • 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
   • 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.
   • Never service damaged BATTERY packs. Service of BATTERY packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or authorized  service providers.

Additional safety instructions

We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery pack to ensure that we supply  you with batteries which feature maximum  power density, durability and safety. The battery  cells have a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded.  These data are then used exclusively to be able to assemble the best possible battery packs.  Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be exercised when handling  batteries. The following points must be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use can only be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect  handling can cause cell damage.

Caution: Analyses confirm that incorrect use and poor care are the main causes of the damage caused by high-performance batteries.

Information about the battery

1. The battery pack supplied with your cordless tool is not charged. The battery pack has to be charged before you use the tool for the first time.
2. For optimum battery performance avoid low discharge cycles. Charge the battery pack frequently.
3. Store the battery pack in a cool place, ideally at 59°F (15°C) and charged to at least 40%.
4. Lithium-Ion batteries are subject to a natural aging process. The battery pack must be replaced at the latest when its capacity falls to just 80% of its capacity when new.  Weakened cells in an aged battery pack are no longer capable of meeting the high power requirements and therefore pose a safety risk.
5. Do not throw battery packs into an open fire. There is a risk of explosion!
6. Do not ignite the battery pack or expose it to fire.
7. Do not exhaustively discharge batteries. Exhaustive discharge will damage the battery cells. The most common cause of deep discharge is lengthy storage or non-use of  partly discharged batteries. Stop working as soon as the performance of the battery falls noticeably or the electronic protection system  triggers. Place the battery pack in storage  only after it has been fully charged.
8. Protect batteries and the tool from overloads. Overloads will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside the  battery housing without this overheating actually being apparent externally.
9. Avoid damage and shocks. Replace  batteries which have been dropped from  a height of more than one meter or which  have been exposed to violent shocks without  delay, even if the housing of the battery pack  appears to be undamaged. The battery cells  inside the battery may have suff ered serious  damage. In this respect, please also read the  waste disposal information.
10. If the battery pack suff ers overloading and overheating, the integrated protective cutoff will switch off the equipment for safety reasons. Caution! Do not press the ON/OFF  switch any more if the protective cut-off has actuated. This may damage the battery.
11. Use only original battery packs. The use  of other batteries may result in injuries, explosion and a fi re risk.
12. Protect your rechargeable battery against moisture, rain and high humidity. Moisture,  rain and high humidity can cause dangerous  cell damage. Never charge or work with batteries which have been exposed to moisture, rain or high humidity – replace them  immediately.
13. If your equipment is fitted with a detachable  battery, remove the battery for safety reasons after you have finished your work.

Information on chargers and the charging process

1. Please check the data marked on the rating  plate of the battery charger. Be sure to connect the battery charger to a power supply with the voltage marked on the rating plate. Never connect it to a different mains voltage.
2. Protect the battery charger and its cable from  damage and sharp edges. Have damaged  cables repaired without delay by a qualifi ed electrician.
3. Keep the battery charger, batteries and the  cordless tool out of children‘s reach.
4. Do not use damaged battery chargers.
5. Do not use the supplied battery charger to charge other cordless tools.
6. In heavy use the battery pack will become warm. Allow the battery pack to cool to room  temperature before commencing with the charging.
7. Do not over-charge batteries. Do not exceed the maximum charging times. These  charging times apply only to discharged  batteries. Frequent insertion of a charged or partly charged battery pack will result in over-charging and cell damage. Do not leave batteries in the charger for more than 48  hours.
8. Never use or charge batteries if you suspect that the last time they were charged was more than 12 months  previously. There is a high probability  that the battery pack has already suffered dangerous damage (exhaustive discharge).
9. Charging batteries at a temperature below  50°F (10°C) will cause chemical damage to the cell and may cause a fire.
10. Do not use batteries that have heated during the charging process, as the battery cells may have suffered dangerous damage.
11. Do not use batteries which have suffered curvature or deformation during the charging  process or which show other non-typical  symptoms (gassing, hissing, cracking,…)
12. Never fully discharge the battery pack  (recommended depth of discharge max.  80%) A complete discharge of the battery pack will lead to premature ageing of the battery cells.
13. Never charge the batteries unsupervised.

Protection from environmental influences

1. Wear suitable work clothes. Wear safety goggles.
2. Protect your cordless tool and the battery charger from moisture and rain. Moisture  and rain can cause dangerous cell damage.
3. Do not use the cordless tool or the battery charger near vapors and inflammable liquids.
4. Use the battery charger and cordless tools  only in dry conditions and an ambient temperature of 50°F to 104°F (10°C to 40°C).
5. Do not keep the battery charger in places  where the temperature is liable to reach over  104°F (40°C). In particular, do not leave the  battery charger in a car that is parked in the unshine.
6. Protect batteries from overheating.  Overloads, over-charging and exposure to direct sunlight will result in overheating and cell damage. Never charge or work with  batteries which have been overheated –  replace them immediately if possible.
7. Storage of batteries, battery chargers  and cordless tools. Store the charger and your cordless tool only in dry places with an ambient temperature of 50°F to 104°F (10°C  to 40°C). Store the Lithium-Ion rechargeable  battery in a cool and dry place at 50°F to 68°F  (10°C to 20°C). Protect them from humidity  and direct sunlight! Place only fully charged batteries in storage (charged at least 40%).
8. Prevent the Lithium-Ion battery pack from  freezing. Battery packs which were stored  below 32°F (0°C) for more than 60 minutes must be disposed of.
9. When handling batteries beware of  electrostatic charges: Electrostatic discharges cause damage of the electronic protection system and the battery cells. Avoid electrostatic charging and never touch the battery poles.
