f Before any work on the machine (e. g., maintenance,
tool change, etc.) as well as during transport and stor-
age, set the rotational direction switch to the centre
position. Unintentional actuation of the On/Off switch can
lead to injuries.
f Avoid unintentional switching on. Ensure the On/Off
switch is in the off position before inserting battery
pack. Carrying the power tool with your finger on the On/Off
switch or inserting the battery pack into power tools that have
the switch on invites accidents.
Protect the battery against heat, e. g., also
against continuous sun irradiation and fire. There
is danger of explosion.
f Do not open the battery. Danger of short-circuiting.
f In case of damage and improper use of the battery,
vapours may be emitted. Provide for fresh air and seek
medical help in case of complaints. The vapours can irri-
tate the respiratory system.
f When the battery is defective, liquid can escape and
come into contact with adjacent components. Check any
parts concerned. Clean such parts or replace them, if required.
Battery Charger
f Keep the battery charger away from rain or moisture.
Penetration of water in the battery charger increases the risk of
an electric shock.
f Keep the battery charger clean. Contamination can lead to
danger of an electric shock.
f Before each use, check the battery charger, cable and
plug. If damage is detected, do not use the battery
charger. Never open the battery charger yourself. Have
repairs performed only by a qualified technician and
only using original spare parts. Damaged battery chargers,
cables and plugs increase the risk of an electric shock.
f Do not operate the battery charger on easily inflamma-
ble surfaces (e. g., paper, textiles, etc.) or surroundings.
The heating of the battery charger during the charging process
can pose a fire hazard.
