Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the Battery
● Ensure the switch is in the off position before inserting battery pack. Inserting the battery pack into machines that have the
switch on invites accidents.
● Keep the battery charger away from rain or moisture. Penetration of water in the battery charger increases the risk of an
electric shock.
● 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.
● Do not charge other batteries. The battery charger is suitable only for charging lithium ion batteries within the listed voltage
range. Otherwise there is danger of fire and explosion.
● Keep the battery charger clean. Contamination can lead to danger of an electric shock.
● Before each use, check the battery charger, cable and plug. If damage is detected, do not use the battery charger. Never
open the battery charger yourself. Have repairs performed only by a qualified technician and only using original spare
parts. Damaged battery chargers, cables and plugs increase the risk of an electric shock.
● Do not operate the battery charger on easily inflammable surfaces (e.g., paper, textiles, etc.) or surroundings. The heating
of the battery charger during the charging process can pose a fire hazard.
● Use only battery packs intended specifically for the machine. 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.
● Do not open the battery. Danger of short-circuiting.
● Protect the battery against heat, e.g., also against continuous sun irradiation and fire. There is danger of explosion.
● Do not short-circuit the battery. There is danger of explosion.
● In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapors' may be emitted. Provide for fresh air , The vapors' can irritate
the respiratory system.
● Protect the battery against moisture and water.
