English
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools
with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to
control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories,
tool bits etc. in accordance with
these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the
power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge the batteries only in
chargers specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is
suitable for one type of battery pack
may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with
specifically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and
fire.

c) When battery pack is not in use,
keep it away from other metal
objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small
objects that could make a
connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery
terminals together may cause burns
or a fire.
d) Misuse may cause liquid to escape
from the battery. Avoid contact with
the liquid. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from
the battery may cause irritation or
burns.
6) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the
power tool is maintained.
7) Safety instructions for abrasive wheel
applications
Safety instructions for cut-off machines
a) The guard for the electrical power
tool must be mounted securely and
set to achieve a maximum level of
safety, i. e. the smallest possible
part of the abrasive element points
openly towards the operator. Make
sure that you and no other person is
outside the area of the rotating
grinding wheel. The guard is
designed to protect the operator
against fragments and accidental
contact with the abrasive element.
b) Use only bound reinforced or
diamond-tipped abrasive wheels for
your electrical power tool. Just
because the accessory can be
mounted to the electrical power tool,
this does not guarantee safe use.
c) The permissible speed of the tool
being used must be at least as high
as the maximum speed indicated on
the electrical power tool. An
accessory that rotates quicker than
permitted can break and fly around.
d) Abrasive elements must only be
used for the recommended
applications. For example: Never
grind with the side surface of an
abrasive wheel. Abrasive wheels
are designed to remove material
with the edge of the wheel. Lateral
forces applied to these abrasive
elements can break them.
e) Always use an undamaged
clamping flange of the correct size
and form for the abrasive wheel you
have chosen. Suitable flanges
support the abrasive wheel and
reduce the risk of the abrasive
wheel breaking.
f) Do not use worn abrasive wheels
from larger electrical power tools.
Abrasive wheels for larger electrical
power tools are not designed for the
high engine speeds of smaller
electrical power tools and can
break.
