type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when
used with another battery pack.
b. Use power tools only with specifically designat-
ed 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 ob-
jects that can make a connection from one ter-
minal 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 acci-
dentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid con-
tacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irrita-
tion or burns.
e. Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam-
aged or modified. Damaged or modified batter-
ies may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting
in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
f. Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or tem-
perature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
6 SERVICE
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified re-
pair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the pow-
er tool is maintained.
b. Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
Machine-specific safety notices for cord-
less drills
– Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the cut-
ting accessory or fastener may contact hidden
wiring. Cutting accessory or fasteners contacting
a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
– Use suitable detectors to determine if utility
lines are hidden in the work area or call the lo-
cal utility company for assistance. Contact with
electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock.
Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion. Pene-
trating a water line causes property damage or
may cause an electric shock.
– Wear suitable protection: such as ear protec-
tion, safety goggles, a dust mask for work which
generates dust, and protective gloves when
working with raw materials and when changing
tools.
CAUTION! Power tool can block and cause
sudden kickback! Switch off immediately!
– Do not lock the on/off switch permanently!

structed to use the machine safely and under-
stand the dangers of machine operation.
Children are not allowed use or play with the ma-
chine.
– Do not open the battery pack or the charger!
– Prevent metal parts (e.g. metal chips) or fluids
from entering the charger!
– Do not use power adapters or battery packs
form other manufacturers to operate the cord-
less power tool. Do not use any charger from
other manufacturers for charging the battery
pack. The use of impermissible accessories may
result in electric shock and / or serious acci-
dents!
– Protect the battery pack from excessive heat > 50
°C or constant heat sources such as sunlight or
naked flames!
– Never use water to extinguish burning li-ion bat-
tery packs! Use sand or a fire blanket.
