FLEXIBLE CLAMP LIGHT SAFETY WARNINGS
■
The light source contained in this luminaire shall only be
replaced by the manufacturer or his service agent or a
similar qualified person.
■
Use only with recommended battery pack and charger.
Any attempt to use another battery pack will cause
damage to the product and could possibly explode,
cause a fire, or personal injury.
■
Do not disassemble the product.
■
If wrapped or in contact with fabrics, the lens can
produce sufficient heat to melt some fabrics. To avoid
serious personal injury, never allow the lens to come in
contact with anything.
■
Do not place the product or battery pack near fire or heat.
This will reduce the risk of explosion and possible injury.
■
Remove the battery pack or disconnect the mains power
before starting any work on the product.
■
Do not store the product in a damp or wet location, or in
a location where the temperature may reach or exceed
40°C. For example, inside sheds, vehicles, or metal
buildings in the summer.
■
Do not direct the light beam at persons or animals and
do not stare into the light beam yourself (not even from
a distance). Staring into the light beam may result in
serious injury or vision loss.
BATTERY SAFETY WARNINGS
■
To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and product
damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool,
battery pack, or charger in fluid or allow fluid to flow inside
them. Corrosive or conductive fluids, such as seawater,
certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach-
containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.
TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
Transport the battery in accordance with local and national
provisions and regulations.
Follow all special requirements on packaging and labelling
when transporting batteries by a third party. Ensure that
no batteries can come in contact with other batteries
or conductive materials while in transport by protecting
exposed connectors with insulating, non-conductive caps or
tape. Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leaking.
Check with the forwarding company for further advice.

Class III protection
Do not dispose of waste batteries, waste electrical
and electronic equipment as unsorted municipal
waste. Waste batteries and waste electrical
and electronic equipment must be collected
separately. Waste batteries, waste accumulators,
and light sources have to be removed from the
equipment. Check with your local authority or
retailer for recycling advice and collection point.
According to local regulations, retailers may have
an obligation to take back waste batteries and
waste electrical and electronic equipment free
of charge. Your contribution to the reuse and
recycling of waste batteries and waste electrical
and electronic equipment helps to reduce the
demand of raw materials. Waste batteries, in
particular containing lithium, and waste electrical
and electronic equipment contain valuable and
recyclable materials, which can adversely impact the
environment and the human health if not disposed
of in an environmentally compatible manner. Delete
personal data from waste equipment, if any.
