shoes, a protective helmet, and hearing protection, depending
on the type and use of of the tool, decreases the risk of injuries.
c) Avoid unintended start-up. Ensure that the power tool is shut off
before you connect it to the battery, pick it up, or carry it. If you have
your nger on the trigger while carrying the power tool, or the device
is connected to the power supply, this can lead to accidents.
d) Avoid non-ergonomic posture. Make sure you are standing stably
and always maintain your balance. You can then control the power
tool in unexpected situations.
e) Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry.
Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothing, jewelry, or long hair can get caught in moving parts.
3.4.4. USING AND HANDLING THE POWER TOOL
a) Do not overload the tool. Use the proper tool for your work . You
work better and more safely in the dened output range when
using the proper tool .
b) Do not use power tools with defective switches. A tool that cannot
be shut off is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Remove the battery before you change tool settings, replace
accessories, or lay the tool down. This prevents the power tool from
starting unintentionally.
d) Store unused tools out of reach of children. Do not allow persons
to use the device who are not familiar with it or have not read
these instructions. Power tools are dangerous if they are used by
inexperienced persons.

- 12 -
e) Take good care of the power tool. Check that moving parts work
properly and do not jam, that there are no broken or damaged
parts, and that the functionality is not hindered. Have damaged
parts repaired prior to using the device. Many accidents are
caused by poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep the tools clean. Carefully maintained tools jam less often and
are easier to use.
g) Use the tool, accessories, etc. in accordance with these instructions.
Take the working conditions and task to be executed into
account. The use of power tools for other purposes than the
intended use can lead to hazardous situations.
h) Use the right tool. Do not use low-output tools for heavy loads. Do
not use the tool for purposes and work for which it is not intended.
i) Check your tool for damage. Prior to further use of the tool, the
safety equipment or damaged parts must be inspected to ensure
proper functionality.
Check to ensure the functionality of moving parts, that they don’t
jam, that no parts are broken, and that all parts are properly and
correctly installed and all conditions required for the operation of
the device have been fullled.
Damaged safety equipment and parts should be properly repaired
or replaced by trained and qualied personnel unless otherwise
indicated in the operating instructions . Damaged switches must be
replaced by trained and qualied personnel. Do not use tools on
which the trigger cannot be easily switched on and off .
3.4.5. SERVICE
Only allow your power tool to be repaired by a
qualied technician using only original spare parts,
available from AIMCO. This ensures that the safety of
your device is maintained.
3.5.0. LITHIUM-ION BATTERY
Please make sure to follow the following instructions
for using lithium-ion batteries.

- 13 -
a) Only charge the batteries in chargers recommended by the
manufacturer. If the battery is not charged on a suitable charger,
it can be permanently damaged .
b) Only use the provided battery for power tools. The use of other
batteries can lead to injuries and re hazards.
c) If the battery is unused for an extended period of time, it must not
remain on the charger or on the tool. If a work break of more than
3 hours is expected, the battery must be removed from the tool.
Otherwise, the battery may be permanently damaged.
d) The lithium-ion battery should not remain on the charger for longer
than 36 hours for safety reasons. Remove the battery from the
charger immediately after the charging process is completed.
e) An empty battery should not be in contact with the tool or a
charger that is disconnected from the mains for an extended
period of time. In both cases, currents are owing that deep
discharge the battery and can permanently damage it.
f) Recharge the lithium-ion batteries immediately and never store
them when empty. If the battery is stored while disconnected from
the tool and the charger, it will maintain a constant capacity over
a long period of time. (Loss approx. 5% per year.)
g) Always transport the battery separately from the tool. This prevents the
tool from accidentally switching on and deep discharging the battery.
h) Do not subject the lithium-ion battery to high temperatures
(+ 50° C) or direct sunlight. If the battery gets warmer than 50° C
during operation (charging or discharging), it must be removed
from the charger or tool immediately.
i) Keep the unused battery away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws or other small metal objects which might bridge the contacts.
Do not open the battery and do not short-circuit it. A short-circuit
between the battery contacts can lead to burns, re, or explosions.
j) Under extreme use or temperature conditions, batteries can
leak. Avoid contact with the skin or eyes if the battery leaks.
The battery uid is acidic and can cause chemical burns. If the
uid comes into contact with skin, immediately wash it with soap
and water and then rinse it with lemon juice or vinegar. If the uid
gets into the eyes, ush with water for at least 10 minutes and
immediately go to the doctor.
k) Make sure that the Li-Ion battery does not fall down or is subject
to vibration and impact.
l) Clean the contacts regularly with a cotton swab soaked in a high-
percent alcohol.

- 14 -
Lithium-ion batteries have nearly no self-discharge and
do not have a memory effect. If properly used, they
will reliably supply your tool with power for several
years (approx. 700 - 1000 charge cycles).
In general, avoid deep discharging or overcharging
the lithium-ion battery under any circumstances. It will
be permanently damaged from this.
3.6.0. CLEANING AND DISPOSING OF THE TOOL
Use and dispose of used materials and substances properly, in
particular cleaning agents and solvents.
Donotthrowtheusedbatteryinthehouseholdtrash,are,orinwater.
Have it properly disposed of by a specialist shop or the manufacturer.
3.7.0. RISK OF INJURY AND DAMAGE TO THE TOOL
1. Make sure that none of the tool parts are
damaged. All damaged parts must be repaired
prior to using the device. If you work with
damaged tool parts, you risk injury.
2. If you work on raised platforms, wear a safety belt and avoid
letting the tool fall down. Non-compliance may lead to injury
and signicant damage.
3. First remove the battery before you clean the device or perform
general maintenance.
4. Never hold your face near the exhaust holes.
5. Avoid skin contact with substances such as lubricating grease
and oil. These substances are ammable on skin. If you do come
