Protect from rain – do not
immerse in fluids.
Protect from heat and fire
– never throw into a fire –
risk of explosion.
Use and store the bat-
tery only in a temperature
range between - 10°C
and + 50°C.
Protect the battery from direct
–
sunlight when it is not in use.
Never expose the battery to
–
microwaves or high pressures.
Never insert objects in the battery's
–
cooling slots.
Never bridge the battery terminals
–
with metallic objects (short circuit).
The battery may be damaged by a
short circuit. Keep a battery that is
not in use away from metal objects
(e.g. nails, coins, jewelry). Do not
use metallic transport boxes.
Fluid may leak from the battery if it is
–
damaged or not used properly –
avoid contact with the skin! Leaking
battery fluid can cause skin irritation
and chemical burns. In the event of
accidental contact, wash affected
areas of skin thoroughly with soap
HLA 65
and water. If fluid gets into your
eyes, do not rub your eyes – rinse
them with plenty of water for at least
15 minutes. Also seek medical
attention.
Never open, disassemble or drop
–
the battery. Battery fluid may leak
from damaged cells and cause skin
irritation or serious burns. Shorting
the cells may result in damage to
the battery.
Charger
Use only original STIHL chargers.
–
Only use for charging geometrically
–
matching STIHL batteries with a
maximum capacity of 50 Ah and a
maximum voltage of 42 V.
Never attempt to charge defective,
–
damaged or deformed batteries.
Connect the charger only to an
–
easily accessible wall outlet with the
voltage and frequency specified on
the rating plate.
Never use a defective or damaged
–
charger.
Do not open the charger.
–
Store the charger out of the reach of
–
children.
Protect from rain and
dampness.
Use and store only
indoors in dry locations.
Operate the charger at ambient
–
temperatures between + 5°C and
+ 40°C.
Allow the charger to cool down
–
normally – do not cover it.
Never bridge (short circuit) the
–
contacts of the charger with metallic
objects (e.g. nails, coins, jewelry).
The charger may be damaged by a
short circuit.
In the event of smoke or fire in the
–
charger, disconnect it from the wall
outlet immediately.
To reduce the risk of electric shock
–
or short circuit, do not insert any
objects in the charger's cooling
slots.
Do not operate on an easily
–
combustible surface (e.g. paper,
textiles) or in an easily combustible
environment – risk of fire.
Do not operate in a hazardous
–
location, i.e. in a location where
there are combustible liquids
(fumes), vapors or dusts. Chargers
can produce sparks, which may
ignite the dust or vapors – risk of
explosion.
Check the charger's
power supply cord regu-
larly for damage. If the
power supply cord is
damaged, immediately
disconnect the plug from
the wall outlet to avoid
the risk of electric shock.
