Skil 2100 Notice Originale page 7

d) 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.
e) Maintain power tools. 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.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.,
in accordance with these instructions, taking 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.
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 fi re 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 fi re.
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 fi re.
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.
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.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR CORDLESS TACKERS
• Always assume that the tool contains fasteners
(careless handling of the tacker can result in
unexpected fi ring of fasteners and personal injury)
• Do not point the tool towards yourself or anyone
nearby (unexpected triggering will discharge the
fastener causing an injury)
• Do not actuate the tool unless the tool is placed
firmly against the workpiece (if the tool is not in
contact with the workpiece, the fastener may be
defl ected away from your target)
• Disconnect the tool from the power source when the
fastener jams in the tool (while removing a jammed
fastener, the tacker may be accidentally activated if it is
plugged in)
• Use caution while removing a jammed fastener
(the mechanism may be under compression and the
fastener may be forcefully discharged while attempting
to free a jammed condition)
• Do not use this tacker for fastening electrical cables
(it is not designed for electric cable installation and may
damage the insulation of electric cables thereby causing
electric shock or fi re hazards)
• Secure the workpiece (a workpiece clamped with
clamping devices or in a vice is held more securely than
by hand)
• Never push in the tacker head manually 4 (there is
danger of injury when at the same time the on/off switch
is activated unintentionally)
• Avoid damage that can be caused by screws, nails and
other elements in your workpiece; remove them before
you start working
• Always check that the supply voltage is the same as the
voltage indicated on the nameplate of the charger
(chargers with a rating of 230V or 240V can also be
connected to a 220V supply)
• In case of electrical or mechanical malfunction,
immediately switch off the tool or unplug charger from
power source
• SKIL can assure fl awless functioning of the tool only
when original accessories are used
• The tool/charger is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the tool/charger by a
person responsible for their safety
• Ensure that children do not play with the tool/charger
CHARGING/BATTERIES
• Charge battery only with the charger that is supplied
with the tool
• Do not expose tool/charger to rain
• Never charge battery outdoors 5
• Store tool/charger in locations where temperature will
not exceed 40°C or drop below 0°C
• Do not use charger when cord or plug is damaged; cord
or plug should be replaced immediately at one of the
offi cially registered SKIL Service Stations
• Do not disassemble charger or tool
• Do not attempt to recharge non-rechargeable batteries
USE
• Charging battery A 6
- battery of new tools is not fully charged
! unplug the charger from the tool after charging
period has ended thereby lengthening the service
life of the battery
IMPORTANT:
- after approximately 3 hours the battery is fully
charged
- while charging, the charger and the battery may
become warm to touch; this is normal and does not
indicate a problem
- do not charge at temperatures below 0°C and over
40°C; this will seriously damage the battery as well
as the charger
