tools, etc. in accordance with these in-
structions and in the way prescribed for
the respective type of tool. You should
also consider the working conditions
and the work to be carried out. The use
of power tools for purposes other than those
intended for the respective tool may result in
dangerous situations.
5) Appropriate handling and use of bat-
tery-operated power tools
a) Make sure that the device has been
switched off before inserting the battery.
Inserting a battery into a switched-on power
tool may lead to accidents!
b) Only use charging devices recommend-
ed by the manufacturer to charge the bat-
teries. Charging units are usually designed
for certain types of batteries; if used with
other types there is a risk of fire!
c) Only use batteries designed for your
power tool. The use of other batteries may
lead to injury and risk of fire!
d) Keep unused batteries clear of paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other
small metal objects that may bridge the
contacts. A short circuit between the bat-
tery contacts may lead to burns or fire!
e) Improper use may result in fluid leaking
out of the battery. Avoid any contact
with battery fluid. Flush with water in
case of contact. If battery fluid should
get into your eyes seek medical advice
additionally. Leaking battery fluid may lead
to irritations of the skin or burns!
6) Service
a) Have the power tool serviced by qualified
technical personnel only; repairs should
be carried out using exclusively original
spare parts. This will ensure the safe oper-
ation of the power tool.
