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 temperatures
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 over-
loading and overheating during the charging pro-
cess.
– Do not leave flat battery packs in a charger dis-
connected from the mains power supply for lon-
Clean individual parts, replace defective or worn
parts, and assemble in the opposite sequence.
During reassembly of the transport lever into
the slides, pay due care to correct fitting of
the spring [19-2] in the transport lever. In-
correct assembly may result in dysfunction
of the belt transport.
