Use and Care Manual

CHARGER
Protect the battery charger and its cord from damage. Keep the charger and its cord away from heat, oil and sharp
edges. Electrical plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with grounded appliances. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
Keep the battery charger, battery pack(s) and the cordless tool out of the reach of children. Do not use the sup-
plied battery charger to charge other cordless tools. During periods of heavy use, the battery pack will become
warm. Allow the battery pack to cool to room temperature before inserting it into the charger to recharge.
Do not overcharge batteries. Do not exceed the maximum charging times. These charging times only apply to dis-
charged batteries. Frequent insertion of a charged or partially charged battery pack will result in overcharging and
cell damage. Do not leave battery in the charger for days on end. Never use or charge a battery if you suspect that
it has been more than 12 months since the last time they were charged. There is a high probability that the battery
pack has already suffered dangerous damage (exhaustive discharge). Do not use battery that have been exposed to
heat during the charging process, as the battery cells may have suffered dangerous damage. Do not use battery that
have suffered curvature or deformation during the charging process or those that exhibit other atypical symptoms
(gassing, hissing, cracking, etc.)
SAFETY RULES FOR CHARGERS
1. CHECK THE WORKPIECE for any cracks, bumps, nails or obstructions before commencing operation.
2. NEVER press in the locking pin when the rotary tool is running.
3. DO NOT cut any workpiece larger than the rotary tool’s capacity. Always maintain a firm grip on the rotary tool.
4. SECURE THE WORKPIECE whenever possible to prevent wobble, damage to the workpiece, and personal
injury.
5. ALWAYS USE safety goggles, a dust mask and hearing protection when using the rotary tool.
6. BEFORE TURNING ON THE ROTARY TOOL, ensure that it is completely clear of the workpiece.
7. NEVER touch any moving parts by hand.
8. CHECK THE POSITION of all electrical wiring and plumbing equipment when drilling into walls, floors or
ceilings.
9. DO NOT remove the attachment from the tool until it has completely stopped rotating.
10. DO NOT touch the attachment after operation, as it may be very hot. Allow time for the attachment to cool
before removing it.
11. DO NOT operate the tool in wet or damp conditions. Doing so significantly increases the risk of electrical shock
and other hazards.
12. DO NOT USE the tool if the ON/OFF switch is faulty, the plug or cable is damaged, or the tool produces
sparks, smoke, or unpleasant odors.
