the power cable is always trailing be-
hind the operator. The extension cable
can be accidentally severed.
•
Use the envisaged cable suspensions
when attaching an extension cable.
•
Never carry the equipment by its power
cable. Never pull the cable to discon-
nect the plug from the mains socket.
Protect the cable from heat, oil and
sharp edges. The mains power cable
could be damaged.
CAREFUL HANDLING AND USE OF
BATTERY DEVICES
a) Charge the batteries only in chargers
that are recommended by the manu-
facturer. 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 bat-
teries designed for the purpose. The
use of other batteries may result in inju-
ries 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 con-
tact, rinse off with water. If the liquid
gets into eyes, seek medical assis-
tance. Leaking battery fluid may cause
skin irritations or burns.
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.
SPECIAL SAFETY DIRECTIONS
FOR BATTERY-OPERATED TOOLS
a) Ensure that the device is switched off
before inserting the battery. Inserting a
battery into a power tool that is switched
on may result in accidents.
b) Recharge the batteries indoors only
because the battery charger is de-
signed for indoor use only.
c) To reduce the electric shock hazard,
unplug the battery charger from the
mains before cleaning the charger.
d) Do not subject the battery to strong
sunlight over long periods and do not
leave it on a heater. Heat damages the
battery and there is a risk of explosion.
e) Allow a hot battery to cool before
charging.
f)
Do not open up the battery and avoid
mechanical damage to the battery.
Risk of short circuit and fumes may be
emitted that irritate the respiratory tract.
Ensure fresh air and seek medical assis-
tance in the event of discomfort.
g) Do not use non-rechargeable batteries!
