of the electric tool) reduces the risk of injury.
c) Make sure that the appliance cannot start
up accidentally. Ensure that the electric
tool is switched off before you connect
it to the power supply and/or insert the
battery, or pick up or carry the tool. If your
fi nger is on the switch whilst carrying the elec-
tric tool or if you connect the appliance to the
mains when it is switched on, this can lead to
accidents.
d) Remove keys and wrenches before swit-
ching on the electric tool. A tool or key
which comes into contact with rotating parts
of the appliance can lead to injuries.
e) Avoid abnormal working postures. Make
sure you stand squarely and keep your
balance at all times. In this way, you can
control the electric tool better in unexpected
circumstances.
f) Wear suitable work clothes. Do not wear
loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clo-
thes and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair can get
trapped in moving parts.
g) If vacuuming devices and draining de-
vices can be fi tted, make sure that these
are correctly attached and correctly used.
The use of a dust extraction system can redu-
ce the danger posed by dust.
4. Usage and treatment of the electric tool
a) Do not overload the appliance. Use the
correct tool for your work. You will be able
to work better and more safely within the gi-
ven performance boundaries.
b) Do not use an electric tool with a defec-
tive switch. An electric tool that cannot be
switched on or off is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Pull the plug out of the socket and/or
remove the battery before making any
adjustments to the appliance, changing
accessories or putting the appliance
down. This safety measure prevents starting
the electric tool unintentionally.
d) Keep unused electric tools out of the
reach of children. Do not allow people
who are not familiar with the appliance or
who have not read these instructions to
use the appliance. Electric tools are dange-
rous if they are used by inexperienced people.
e) Clean your electric tool carefully. Check
whether moving parts are functioning
properly and not jamming, whether parts
are broken or damaged enough that the

functioning of this electric tool is aff ec-
ted. Have damaged parts repaired before
using the appliance. Many accidents are
caused by badly maintained electric tools.
f) Keep your cutting tools sharp and clean.
Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges will jam less and are easier to
control.
g) Make sure to use electric tools, accesso-
ries, attachments, etc. in accordance with
these instructions. Take the conditions in
your work area and the job in hand into
account. Using electric tools for any purpose
other than the one for which they are intended
can lead to dangerous situations.
5. Using and handling the cordless tool
a) Only charge the batteries in chargers that
are recommended by the manufacturer.
A charger that is designed for a certain type
of battery may pose a fi re risk if it is used with
other types of battery.
b) Use only the correct batteries in the elec-
tric tools. The use of other batteries may
result in injuries and a fi re risk.
c) Keep unused batteries away from paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws and other
metallic objects that could cause a short
circuit between the contacts. A short cir-
cuit between the battery contacts may cause
burns or a fi re.
d) In case of incorrect use, fl uid may escape
from the battery. Avoid contact with it. If
you touch it by accident, rinse the aff ec-
ted area with water. If you get the fl uid
in your eyes, also seek medical advice.
Leaking battery fl uid can cause skin irritation
or burns.
6. Service
a) Have your electric tool repaired only by
trained personnel using only genuine
spare parts. This will ensure that your elec-
tric tool remains safe to use.
