b. Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
c. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like
paperclips, 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.
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.
e. Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or
modified batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour, resulting in fire, explosion or
risk of injury.
f. Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperatures. Exposure to
fire or a temperature above 130 °C may cause an explosion.
g. Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool
outside the temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly
or at temperatures outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase
the risk of fire.
Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical
replacements parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
b. Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be
performed by the manufacturer or authorised service providers.
MACHINE-SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTION
Safety warnings for drills and screwdrivers
Hold the power tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when performing an
operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a
"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool conductive and could give
the operator an electric shock
Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area
or call your local utility company for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to
fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion. Penetrating a water
line causes property damage or may cause an electric shock.
Switch off the power tool immediately when the tool becomes blocked or stuck. Be
prepared for high reaction torque that can cause kickback. The tool becomes blocked
when:
• the power tool is subjected to overload
• or it becomes wedged in the workpiece.
