Charging the tool
The battery charger 8supplied matches to the battery installed in the machine.
Do not use otherbattery chargers.
The battery is protected against deep discharging.
Whenthe battery is empty, the machineis switched off by means of aprotective
circuit: the blade will no longer move.
In a warm environment or after heavy use, the battery pack may become too hot to
permit charging. Allow time for the battery to cool down before recharging.
Charging
Plug charger plug into a suitable power outlet and afterwards plug your tool into
the battery charger.The charging Indicator light 7on the back of tool will turn red
during charging. Whencharging isdone, it will turn green.
Unplug the charging plug from the wall socket and then remove the tool from the
battery charger(See Fig. D).
During the charging procedure, the handle of the machine warms up. This is
normal. When not using for extended periods, disconnect the battery charger from
the socket. Do not use the machine during the charging procedure.
Cutting
Thinmaterials, such as fabrics, can be pulled into the toolduring cutting and
become wedged. Therefore, do not apply too much pressure with these materials
in order to achieve good cutting results. During cutting, apply sufficient tension
while holding fabrics and cut slowly (See Fig. E).
Do not allow the foot to become wedged during cutting. The foot must be parallel
to the cut.
Do not touch the blade or bring the tool nearthe hand or face when operating.
Whencutting the material, never put the hand infront of the blade.
