1. General Safety Rules
CAUTION!
Read all safety regulations and instructions.
Any errors made in following the safety regulations
and/or serious injury.
Keep all safety regulations and instructions in a
safe place for future use.
1. Work area
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
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.
2. Electrical safety
a. Power tools plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
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.
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
A
moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personal injury.
b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye
protection. Safety equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before plugging in. Carrying
plugging in 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 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.
4. Power tool use and cars
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 the battery pack 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. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may affect the
power tools operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
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 and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions and
in the manner intended for the particular type
of power tool, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed. Use of

6. Recommendation
We recommend that the tool always be supplied via
residual current device with a rated residual current
of 30 mA or less.
2. Additional Safety Rules
Hold the equipment by the insulated handles when
carrying out work during which the screw or the
plug-in tool could strike concealed power cables.
Contact with a live cable may also make the metal
parts of the equipment live and cause an electric
shock.
We pay a great deal of attention to the design
of every battery pack to ensure that we supply
you with batteries which feature maximum power
density, durability and safety. The battery cells have
a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell
is initially formatted and its electrical characteristic
curves are recorded. These data are then used
exclusively to be able to assemble the best possible
battery packs. Despite all the safety precautions,
caution must always be exercised when handling
batteries. The following points must be obeyed at
all times to ensure safe use.
Safe use can only be guaranteed if undamaged
cells are used. Incorrect handling can cause cell
damage.
Important!
and poor care are the main causes of the damage
caused by high performance batteries.
Information about the battery
1. The battery pack supplied with your cordless
tool is not charged. The battery pack has to be
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 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.
There is a risk of explosion!
6. Do not ignite the battery pack or expose it to
7. Do not exhaustively discharge batteries.
Exhaustive discharge will damage the battery
cells. The most common cause of exhaustive
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-
off will switch off the equipment for safety
reasons. Important! Do not press the ON/OFF
switch any more if the protective cut-off has
actuated. This may damage the battery pack.
11. Use only original battery packs. The use
of other batteries may result in injuries,
Information on chargers and the charging
process

m
charged battery pack will result in overcharging
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 10°C
will cause chemical damage to the cell and may
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,…)
12. Never fully discharge the battery pack
(recommended depth of discharge max. 80%) A
complete discharge of the battery pack will lead
to premature ageing of the battery cells.
13. Never charge the batteries unsupervised.
1. Wear suitable work clothes. Wear safety
goggles.
2. Protect your cordless tool and the battery
charger from moisture and rain. Moisture and
rain can cause dangerous cell damage.
3. Do not use the cordless tool or the battery
4. Use the battery charger and cordless tools only
in dry conditions and an ambient temperature
of 10-40°C.
5. Do not keep the battery charger in places where
the temperature is liable to reach over 40°C. In
particular, do not leave the battery charger in a
car that is parked in direct sunlight.
6. Protect batteries from overheating. Overloads,
over-charging and exposure to direct sunlight
will result in overheating and cell damage.
Never charge or work with batteries which have
been overheated – replace them immediately if
possible.
7. Storage of batteries, battery chargers and
cordless tools. Store the charger and your
cordless tool only in dry places with an
ambient temperature of 10-40°C. Store your
lithium-ion battery pack in a cool, dry place at
a temperature of 10-20°C. Protect them from
humidity and direct sunlight. Only place fully
charged batteries in storage (charged at least
40%).
8. Prevent the lithium-ion battery pack from
freezing. Battery packs which were stored
below 0°C for more than 60 minutes must be
disposed of.
9. When handling batteries be aware of
electrostatic charge: Electrostatic discharges
cause damage of the electronic protection
system and the battery cells. Avoid
electrostatic charging and never touch the
battery poles.
Important!
When using equipment, a few safety precautions
must be observed to avoid injuries and damage.
