Service and maintenance

Observe the following instructions:
– Keep the air slits on the machine and the
charger free and clean to ensure adequate
cooling.
– Keep the contacts on the machine, charger
and battery pack clean.
Information on battery packs
– Where possible, store the battery pack in a
cool, dry place at a temperature between
5 °C and 25 °C.
– Battery packs are most efficient at temper-
atures between 20 °C and 30 °C.
– Protect the battery pack from moisture,
water and heat.
– Significantly shorter operating times after
each charge indicate that the battery pack
is worn and should be replaced with a new
one.
– The LiIon battery pack is fully compatible
with the charger! Integrated electronics
prevent overloading and overheating dur-
ing the charging process.
– Do not leave flat battery packs in a charger
disconnected from the mains power supply
for longer than one month. There is a risk
of total discharge and the maximum power
of the battery pack may decrease.
– Store the battery pack in its packaging to
reduce the risk of short circuits..
– If LiIon battery packs are to be stored for
long periods without use, they should be
charged to 40 %
15 mins. charging period).

Accessories

Use only original Festool accessories and
Festool consumable material intended for
this machine because these components are
designed specifically for the machine. Using
capacity (approx.
accessories and consumable material from
other suppliers will most likely affect the
quality of your working results and limit any
warranty claims. Machine wear or your own
personal workload may increase depending
on the application. Protect yourself and your
machine, and preserve your warranty claims
by always using original Festool accessories
and Festool consumable material!
The order numbers of the accessories and
tools can be found in the Festool catalogue or
on the Internet under "www.festool.com".

Disposal

Do not throw the power tool in your house-
hold waste! Dispose of machines, accesso-
ries and packaging at an environmentally re-
sponsible recycling centre. Observe the valid
national regulations.
EU only: European Directive 2002/96/EC
stipulates that used electric power tools must
be collected separately and disposed of at an
environmentally responsible recycling cen-
tre.
Return used or faulty battery packs to your
local specialist retailer, Festool after-sales
service or a designated public waste man-
agement facility. The battery packs will then
be recycled. (Observe the regulations appli-
cable in your country). The batteries must be
discharged on return.
EU only: European Directive 91/157/EEC
stipulates that faulty or used battery packs/
batteries must be recycled.

Transport

The equivalent amount of lithium in the LiIon
battery pack is less than the applicable limit
value and certified as per UN manual ST/SG/
AC.10/11/rev. 3 part III, subsection 38.3.
The LiIon battery pack is therefore not sub-
ject to national and international dangerous
goods regulations, neither as an individual
component nor as a fitted machine compo-
nent. However, dangerous goods regulations
may apply when several battery packs are
transported, in which case you may have to
fulfil special conditions. Refer to ADR special
regulation 230 for more information relevant
for the EU.
