Batteries
• Do not charge the batteries when room temperature is lower than 0°C (32°F) or greater
than 40°C (104°F)
• Do not use a step-down transformer, a power-supply unit or a DC supply plug
• Do not short-circuit the batteries: do not touch the terminals with any conductive material
Avoid keeping the batteries in contact with metal objects such as nails, coins, clips, etc.
• Do not expose batteries to water or rain. A short-circuit of the batteries can cause a strong
current flow, overheating, burns and faults
• Do not keep the device and the batteries in places where room temperature is equal to
or greater than 50°C (122°F)
• Do not burn the batteries even if they are damaged or completely worn out, they
may explode and cause a fire
• Be careful not to drop, shake or hit the batteries
• Remove the batteries from their boxes or cases before recharging them. Keep the
batteries in a well-ventilated area during the charging process
• Do not dispose of batteries with household waste, in fire or water: collect, recycle or
dispose of the batteries in order to protect the environment. Contact an authorized Service Centre to
obtain information on the centers where damaged or unusable batteries can be disposed of.
Personal safety
• Always pay attention to the operation you are performing and use common sense while
handling an electrically-operated tool. Do not use electrically-operated tools if you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medicines. When using electrically-operated tools, even a momentary lapse
of concentration can cause serious personal injuries.
• Wear suitable clothing. Do not wear loose clothes or jewels. Long hair must be tied back. Keep hair,
clothes and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewels or long hair may get caught in moving
parts.
• Do not lean. Keep a correct posture and correct balance at all times. A correct posture and good
balance give you a better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
• Use safety devices. Always wear safety goggles. Always use dust masks, safety anti-slip shoes, helmets
or earmuffs to provide for safe work conditions.
Tool use and maintenance
• Use vices or other fixing systems to fasten the piece to be processed to a stable platform. A
piece that is held by hand or with the body reduces stability and may lead to a loss of control.
• Do not force the tools. Use a tool suitable for the operation to be performed. The appropriate tool,
used in nominal conditions, allows you to work in the safest way.
• Store unused tools out of the reach of children and unauthorized persons.
• Check that no moving part is unaligned, removed or damaged, and that no other condition may
affect tool operation. In case of damage, check the tool before use. Many accidents are caused by
poor maintenance.
• Use only the accessories recommended by the manufacturer for that specific model.
• This product was designed exclusively for the tightening of threaded inserts and stud bolts in pre-
holed supports for professional use. Any other use is forbidden. Any alteration, repair or
modification made without the consent of the manufacturer is forbidden.
