• To reduce risk of damage to electric plug and cord, disconnect from mains socket by pulling
the plug rather than the cord.
• Make sure cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise
subjected to damage or stress.
• Do not operate the battery charger on easily inflammable surfaces (e. g., paper, textiles, etc.)
or surroundings. The heating of the battery charger during the charging process can pose
a fire hazard.
• Do not place any object on top of charger or on a surface that might block the ventilation
slots and result in excessive internal heat. Place the charger in position away from any heat
source.
• Do not disassemble charger. Take it to authorized service center when service or repair is
required. Incorrect reassemble may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or fire.
• Keep the battery charger clean. Contamination can lead to danger of an electric shock.
• Do not store or use the tool in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 50°C
(such as outside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
PERSONAL PROTECTION AND FIRST AID
• Work only in places where it is possible to quickly call an ambulance!
Note:I
we recommend always having:
• A suitable fire extinguisher (snow, powder, halotron) at your disposal.
• A fully equipped first-aid kit, easily accessible for accompaniment and operator.
• Mobile phone or other device for quickly calling emergency services.
• Accompaniment familiar with the principles of first aid.
C Accompaniment must keep a safe distance from the workplace while always seeing
you!
• Always follow the principles of first aid in case of any injuries.
• If there is a cut, cover the wound with a clean bandage (fabric) and press down firmly to
stop the bleeding.
• If the skin is burnt, avoid further exposure to the source of burns first. Cool the injured areas
of smaller extend with water of preferably about 4-8 °C. Do not put ointments, creams or
dusting powders on the affected area. The best way is to use a wet compress, for example
a handkerchief or a towel. Then secure the sterile cover and, if necessary, seek medical
attention.
• If persons with circulatory problems are often exposed to excessive vibration, they may
experience injury to blood vessels or their nervous system. The vibrations may cause
the following symptoms appear on fingers, hands or wrists: numbness, itching, pain,
tingling, changes in skin colour or of the skin itself. If any of these symptoms occur, consult
a doctor.
• When an electric shock is caused, it is necessary more than anywhere else to put emphasis
on safety and risk elimination for the rescuers. The affected person usually stays in contact
with electrical equipment (source of injury) because of muscle spasms caused by the electric
shock. Traumatic process continues in this case. It is therefore necessary to TURN THE
POWER OFF FIRST using any possible way. Subsequently CALL AN AMBULANCE or other
professional service, and then PROVIDE FIRST AID! Ensure free airways, check breathing,
