Safety precautions
used for charging other batteries.
Use only those rechargeable bat-
teries in power tools which are in-
tended for them. Use of other re-
chargeable batteries may result in
injuries and fire hazard.
Protect the rechargeable battery
■
from moisture and water. Only
store the rechargeable battery in a
temperature range of 0 °C to
45 °C. For example, do not leave
the battery inside a car in summer.
Occasionally clean the rechargea-
ble battery's ventilation slots with
a soft, clean and dry brush.
Only use genuine Metabo or CAS
■
(Cordless Alliance System) battery
packs and accessories.
Battery packs marked CAS are
100% compatible with CAS (Cord-
less Alliance System) devices.
The chargers are only suitable for
charging Metabo and CAS (Cord-
less Alliance System) battery
packs.
Transportation
To transport the tool, remove the bat-
tery pack.
Transporting li-ion battery packs
Shipping a li-ion battery back is sub-
ject to regulations on the carriage of
dangerous goods (UN 3480 and
UN 3481). When shipping li-ion bat-
tery packs, ascertain the regulations
currently in effect. If necessary, ob-
tain information from your carrier.
Certified packaging is available from
Steinel.
Only ship battery packs if the housing
is intact and not leaking any liquid.
For shipment, remove the battery
pack from the machine. Insulate the
contacts to prevent short-circuiting
(e.g. with adhesive tape).
Outlet nozzle, nozzle attachment and
air delivery can reach a temperature
of over 500 degrees Celsius!
Beware of burns! After skin contact
with hot materials, immediately cool
with cold water. If necessary, seek
medical attention.
Keep these safety precautions
with the tool.
