Battery tool use and care
1. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the o-position before connecting
to battery pack, picking up or carrying the
machine. Carrying the machine with your nger
on the switch or energizing machine that have the
switch on invites accidents.
2. Disconnect the battery pack from the machine
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing machine. Such preven-
tive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
machine accidentally.
3. Recharge only with the charger specied by
the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery pack may create a risk of re
when used with another battery pack.
4. Use machines only with specically desig-
nated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and re.
5. 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 termi-
nals together may cause burns or a re.
6. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If con-
tact accidentally occurs, ush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or
burns.
7. Do not use a battery pack or machine that is
damaged or modied. Damaged or modied
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in re, explosion or risk of injury.
8. Do not expose a battery pack or machine to
re or excessive temperature. Exposure to re
or temperature above 130°C (265°F) may cause
explosion.
9. Follow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or machine outside of
the temperature range specied in the instruc-
tions. Charging improperly or at temperatures
outside of the specied range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of re.
10. Have servicing performed by a qualied repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the product is
maintained.
11. Do not modify or attempt to repair the machine
or the battery pack except as indicated in the
instructions for use and care.
