Important notice - so your guarantee does not
expire:
• Always keep the air-intake clean.

certain types of batteries; if used with other
types there is a risk of fire!
c) Only use batteries designed for your pow-
er 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 battery
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 addition-
ally. Leaking battery fluid may lead to irrita-
tions of the skin or burns!
