Safety instructions

2.1 General safety instructions
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in electric shock, fire
and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future ref-
erence.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to
your mains-operated (corded) power tool or bat-
tery-operated (cordless) power tool.
2.2 Machine-specific safety notices for cordless
drills
– Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
12
when performing an operation where the cut-
ting accessory or fastener may contact hidden
wiring. Cutting accessory or fasteners contacting
a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
– Use suitable detectors to determine if utility
lines are hidden in the work area or call the lo-
cal utility company for assistance. Contact with
electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock.
Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion. Pene-
trating a water line causes property damage or
may cause an electric shock.
– Wear suitable protection: such as ear protection,
safety goggles, a dust mask for work which gener-
ates dust, and protective gloves when working with
raw materials and when changing tools.
CAUTION! Power tool can block and cause
sudden kickback! Switch off immediately!
– Hold the power tool firmly in your hand. Adjust
the torque correctly for screwing. Be prepared
for a high reaction torque, which may cause the
power tool to turn and possibly lead to injury.
– Do not use the power tool in the rain or in damp
surroundings. Moisture in the power tool may
cause a short circuit and burning.
– Do not lock the on/off switch permanently!
2.3 Battery pack and charger safety instruc-
tions
– This charger can be operated by persons with re-
duced physical, sensory or mental capabilities or a
lack of practical experience and knowledge, pro-
vided they are supervised or have been instructed
to use the machine safely and understand the dan-
gers of machine operation. Children are not al-
lowed use or play with the machine.
– Do not open the battery pack or the charger!
– Prevent metal parts (e.g. metal chips) or fluids
from entering the charger!
– Risk of explosion! Do not use battery packs or
chargers from other manufacturers!
– Protect the battery pack from excessive heat > 50
°C or constant heat sources such as sunlight or
naked flames!
– Never use water to extinguish burning li-ion bat-
tery packs! Use sand or a fire blanket.
– Check the plug and the cable regularly and
should either become damaged, in order to avoid
