▪ When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from
one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
▪ Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
▪ Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
▪ Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or
temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
▪ Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the battery pack or tool outside the
temperature range specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at temperatures
outside the specified range may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
5.6 Service
▪ Your power tool should be serviced by a qualified specialist using only standard spare
parts. This will ensure that it meets the required safety standards.
6 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR DRILLS
▪ Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a ″live″ wire will make exposed metal
parts of the tool ″live″ and shock the operator.
▪ Let bit cool before touching, changing or adjusting it. Bits heat up dramatically while in
use, and can burn you.
▪ Avoid unintentional starting. Prepare to begin work before turning on the tool.
▪ Do not lay the tool down until it has come to a complete stop. Moving parts can grab the
surface and pull the tool out of your control.
▪ When using a handheld power tool, maintain a firm grip on the tool with both hands to
resist starting torque.
▪ Do not leave the tool unattended when the Battery Pack is connected. Turn off the tool,
and remove the Battery Pack before leaving.
▪ The battery Charger gets hot during use. The Charger’s heat can build up to unsafe levels
and create a fire hazard if it does not receive adequate ventilation, due to an electrical
fault, or if it is used in a hot environment. Do not place the Charger on a flammable
surface. Do not obstruct any vents on the Charger. Especially avoid placing the Charger
on carpets and rugs; they are not only flammable, but they also obstruct vents under the
Charger. Place the Charger on a stable, solid, nonflammable surface (such as a stable
metal workbench or concrete floor) at least 1 foot away from all flammable objects, such
as drapes or walls. Keep a fire extinguisher and a smoke detector in the area. Frequently
monitor the Charger and Battery Pack while charging.
▪ This product is not a toy. Keep it out of reach of children.
▪ The warnings, precautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot
cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the
operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this
product, but must be supplied by the operator.
