5 Safety instructions
5.1 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 fu-
ture reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to
your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
5.2 Machine-related safety instruc-
tions
– Hold power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may con-
tact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cut-
ting accessory contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool
"live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
– The charger and power tool are not in-
tended for use by persons (including
children) with limited physical, sensory
or mental ability or without sufficient
experience and/or knowledge, unless
they are supervised by a person respon-
sible for their safety or have been in-
structed on how the charger or power
tool is to be used.Children should always
be supervised to ensure that they do not play
with the charger or the power tools.
– Switch of the power tool immediately if
the tool is blocked. Always be prepared
for high reaction torques that can cause
kickback.
The tool blocks if:
- the power tool is overloaded or - it be-
comes jammed in the workpiece being pro-
cessed.
– Wait until the power tool stops com-
pletely until placing it down. The tool can
become entangled and lead to a loss of con-
trol of the power tool.
– Avoid unintentional activation. Ensure
that the on/off switch is in switched-off
position before inserting a battery. Car-
rying the power tool with your finger at the
on/off switch, or inserting the battery when
the power tool is switched on, can result in
accidents.
– Take care when drilling into walls as there is
a danger of rupturing concealed gas/water
pipes or cutting through power cables.
– Do not open the battery pack or the charger.
Even after disconnection from the mains,
there is still a high capacitor voltage inside
the charger.
– Make sure that metal objects (such as metal
chips) or fluids do not collect in the battery
pack retaining slots or enter the machine
through the air vent slits (danger of short cir-
cuit).
– Do not charge battery packs from external
manufacturers. The charger is designed for
charging original battery packs only. Never
charge the battery packs in chargers from
external manufacturers. Otherwise there is a
danger of fire and explosion.
– Protect the battery pack from excessive heat
or constant heat sources such as sunlight or
naked flames. There is a risk of explosion.
– Never use water to extinguish burning LiIon
battery packs, always use sand or a fire
blanket.
– Check the plug and the cable regularly and
should either become damaged, have them
replaced by an authorised after-sales service
workshop.
– Always pull the mains plug out of the socket
when the charger is not in use.
