circumstances.
f)
Wear suitable work clothes. Do not wear
loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clo-
thes and gloves away from moving parts.
Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair can get
trapped in moving parts.
g) If vacuuming devices and draining de-
vices can be fi tted, make sure that these
are correctly attached and correctly used.
The use of a dust extraction system can redu-
ce the danger posed by dust.
4. Usage and treatment of the electric tool
a) Do not overload the appliance. Use the
correct tool for your work. You will be able
to work better and more safely within the gi-
ven performance boundaries.
b) Do not use an electric tool with a defec-
tive switch. An electric tool that cannot be
switched on or off is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Pull the plug out of the socket and/or
remove the battery before making any ad-
justments to the appliance, changing ac-
cessories or put the appliance down. This
safety measure prevents starting the electric
tool unintentionally.
d) Keep unused electric tools out of the
reach of children. Do not allow people
who are not familiar with the appliance or
who have not read these instructions to
use the appliance. Electric tools are dange-
rous if they are used by inexperienced people.
e) Clean your electric tool carefully. Check
whether moving parts are functioning
properly and not jamming, whether parts
are broken or damaged enough that the
functioning of this electric tool is aff ec-
ted. Damaged parts must be repaired be-
fore using the appliance. Many accidents
are caused by badly maintained electric tools.
f)
Keep your cutting tools sharp and clean.
Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges will jam less and are easier to
control.
g) Make sure to use electric tools, accesso-
ries, spare parts, etc. in accordance with
these instructions. Take the conditions
in your work area and the job to perform
into account. Using electric tools for any
purpose other than the one for which they are
intended can lead to dangerous situations.

5. Using and handling the cordless tool
a) Only charge the batteries in chargers that
are recommended by the manufacturer.
A charger that is designed for a certain type
of battery may pose a fi re risk if it is used with
other types of battery.
b) Use only the correct batteries in the elec-
tric tools. The use of other batteries may
result in injuries and a fi re risk.
c) Keep unused batteries away from paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws and other
metallic objects that could cause a short
circuit between the contacts. A short cir-
cuit between the battery contacts may cause
burns or a fi re.
d) In case of incorrect use, fl uid may escape
from the battery. Avoid contact with it. If
you touch it by accident, rinse the aff ec-
ted area with water. If you get the fl uid
in your eyes, also seek medical advice.
Leaking battery fl uid can cause skin irritation
or burns.
6. Service
a) Have your electric tool repaired only by
trained personnel and/or the authorized
service agent, using only genuine spare
parts. This will ensure that your electric tool
remains safe to use.
Special safety information
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of
every battery pack to ensure that we supply you
with batteries which feature maximum power den-
sity, durability and safety. The battery cells have
a wide range of safety devices. Each individual
cell is initially formatted and its electrical charac-
teristic curves are recorded. These data are then
used exclusively to be able to assemble the best
possible battery packs. Despite all the safety
precautions, caution must always be exer-
cised when handling batteries. The following
points must be obeyed at all times to ensure
safe use.
Safe use can only be guaranteed if undama-
ged cells are used. Incorrect handling can
cause cell damage.
Important: Analyses confi rm that incorrect use
and poor care are the main causes of the damage
caused by high performance batteries.
