Protection from environmental infl uences
1. Wear suitable work clothes. Wear safety gog-
gles.
2. Protect your cordless tool and the battery
charger from moisture and rain. Moisture
and rain can cause dangerous cell damage.
3. Do not use the cordless tool or the battery
charger near vapors and infl ammable liquids.
4. Use the battery charger and cordless tools
only in dry conditions and an ambient tempe-
rature of 10-40°C.
5. Do not keep the battery charger in places
where the temperature is liable to reach over
40°C. In particular, do not leave the battery
charger in a car that is parked in the sunshine.
6. Protect batteries from overheating. Over-
loads, over-charging and exposure to direct
sunlight will result in overheating and cell
damage. Never charge or work with batteries
which have been overheated – replace them
immediately if possible.
7. Storage of batteries, battery chargers
and cordless tools. Store the charger and
your cordless tool only in dry places with an
ambient temperature of 10-40°C. Store your
lithium-ion battery pack in a cool, dry place at
a temperature of 10-20°C. Protect them from
humidity and direct sunlight. Only place fully
charged batteries in storage (charged at least
40%).
8. Prevent the lithium-ion battery pack from free-
zing. Battery packs which were stored below
0°C for more than 60 minutes must be dispo-
sed of.
9. When handling batteries beware of electro-
static charge: Electrostatic discharges cause
damage of the electronic protection system
and the battery cells. Avoid electrostatic char-
ging and never touch the battery poles.
Rechargeable batteries and cordless electric
machines and tools contain materials that are po-
tentially harmful to the environment.

general instructions, illustrations and
data supplied with the tool. If you fail to
obey the following instructions, you may
suff er an electric shock, fi re and/or serious

was not intended could lead to dangerous
situations and injuries.
c) Do not use any accessories which have
not been designed and recommended
by the manufacturer specifi cally for this

fl ange. Plug-in tools that are not exactly se-
cured to the electric tool will rotate irregularly,
vibrate a great deal and might result in you
losing control.
g) Do not use damaged plug-in tools. Before
use, check plug-in tools such as
grinding/sanding wheels for splintering
