General safety information for power tools
The term „power tool“ used in the safety
regulations refers to power tools operated from
the mains power supply (with a power cable) and
to battery operated power tools (without a power
cable).
1) Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power
tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can
cause you to lose control.
Anl_GE_LM_36_4in1_Li_SPK7_USA.indb 17Anl_GE_LM_36_4in1_Li_SPK7_USA.indb 17 29.09.2021 09:33:5429.09.2021 09:33:54

2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or
grounded surfaces such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There
is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the
cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep cord away from
heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for
outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
f) If operating a power tools in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric
shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or
BATTERY pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on
the switch or energising power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part of the
power tool may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of these devices can reduce dust
related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent
use of tools allow you to become
complacent and ignore tool safety
principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your application.
The correct power tool will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or remove the battery pack,
if detachable, from the power tool before
making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools and accessories.
Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.

5) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge only with the charger 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 metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the

time.
2. For optimum battery performance avoid low
discharge cycles. Charge the battery pack
frequently.
3. Store the battery pack in a cool place, ideally
at 59°F (15°C) and charged to at least 40%.
4. Lithium-ion batteries are subject to a natural
ageing process.The battery pack must be
replaced at the latest when its capacity
falls to just 80% of its capacity when new.
Weakened cells in an aged battery pack are
no longer capable of meeting the high power
requirements and therefore pose a safety risk.
5. Do not throw battery packs into an open fire.
There is a risk of explosion!
6. Do not ignite the battery pack or expose it to
fire.
7. Do not exhaustively discharge batteries.
Exhaustive discharge will damage the battery
cells.The most common cause of deep
discharge is lengthy storage or non-use of
partly discharged batteries. Stop working as
soon as the performance of the battery falls
noticeably or the electronic protection system
triggers. Place the battery pack in storage
only after it has been fully charged.
8. Protect batteries and the tool from
overloads. Overloads will quickly result
in overheating and cell damage inside the
battery housing without this overheating
actually being apparent externally.
9. Avoid damage and shocks. Replace
batteries which have been dropped from
a height of more than one meter or which
have been exposed to violent shocks without
delay, even if the housing of the battery pack
appears to be undamaged.The battery cells
inside the battery may have suffered serious
damage. In this respect, please also read the
waste disposal information.
10. If the battery pack suffers overloading and
overheating, the integrated protective cut-
offwill switch offthe equipment for safety
reasons. Caution! Do not press the ON/OFF
switch any more if the protective cut-offhas
actuated.This may damage the battery.
11. Use only original battery packs.The use
of other batteries may result in injuries,
explosion and a fire risk.
12. Protect your rechargeable battery against
moisture, rain and high humidity. Moisture,
rain and high humidity can cause dangerous
cell damage. Never charge or work with
batteries which have been exposed to
moisture, rain or high humidity – replace them
immediately.
13. If your equipment is fitted with a detachable
battery, remove the battery for safety reasons
after you have finished your work
Information on chargers and the charging
process
1. Please check the data marked on the rating
plate of the battery charger. Be sure to
connect the battery charger to a power supply
with the voltage marked on the rating plate.
Never connect it to a different mains voltage.
2. Protect the battery charger and its cable from
damage and sharp edges. Have damaged
cables repaired without delay by a qualified
electrician.
3. Keep the battery charger, batteries and the
cordless tool out of children‘s reach.
4. Do not use damaged battery chargers.
5. Do not use the supplied battery charger to
charge other cordless tools.
6. In heavy use the battery pack will become
warm. Allow the battery pack to cool to room
temperature before commencing with the
charging.
7. Do not over-charge batteries. Do not
exceed the maximum charging times.These
charging times apply only to discharged
batteries. Frequent insertion of a charged
or partly charged battery pack will result in
over-charging and cell damage. Do not leave
batteries in the charger for days on end.
8. Never use or charge batteries if you
suspect that the last time they were
charged was more than 12 months
previously. There is a high probability
that the battery pack has already suffered
dangerous damage (exhaustive discharge).
9. Charging batteries at a temperature below
50°F (10°C) will cause chemical damage to
the cell and may cause a fire.
10. Do not use batteries which have heated
during the charging process, as the battery
cells may have suffered dangerous damage.
11. Do not use batteries which have suffered
curvature or deformation during the charging
process or which show other non-typical
symptoms (gassing, hissing, cracking,…)
