4.4 Usage Hazards
4.4.2 BATTERIES
DANGER
Strong mechanical influences, can lead
to a leakage, fire or explosion of the
batteries or trigger the release of toxic
substances.
• Batteries and rechargeable batteries may not
be opened or exposed to mechanical loads.
• Repairs have to be exclusively performed by
Hultafors
WARNING
High ambient temperatures and
immersion into liquids can cause
a leakage, fire or explosion of the
batteries or trigger the release of toxic
substances.
• Protect batteries and rechargeable batteries
from mechanical influences during transport.
• Do not overheat batteries and rechargeable
batteries or expose them to fire.
• Avoid the ingress of moisture into batteries
and rechargeable batteries.
• Do not use damaged batteries or rechargeable
batteries. Perform a proper disposal
(see Ch ap te r 11 / Di sp os al)
.
WARNING
A short-circuiting or unintended use can
cause batteries to overheat and create
an injury or fire hazard.
4.4.1 GENERAL
WARNING
Missing or incomplete instructions may
result in improper or incorrect use.
is can cause accidents with serious
damages to persons, property, assets
and the environment.
• Follow the manufacturer‘s and operator‘s
safety instructions.
• Protect equipment and accessories from
access through children.
WARNING
Blinding by laser radiation can indirectly
lead to serious accidents, especially
for people who are driving a vehicle or
operating machinery.
• Do not set up the laser beam and the laser
plane at eye level or aim at people.
CAUTION
A fall, longer storage, transportation or
other mechanical eects can lead to
erroneous measurement results. Check
the unit for damage before use.
Do not use damaged equipment.
• Repairs have to be exclusively performed by
Hultafors
• Do not transport or store batteries in the
pockets of garments.
• Do not bring the battery contacts in contact
with jewelery, keys, or other electrically
conductive objects.
• Do not charge the batteries.
• Do not discharge the batteries through short-
circuiting.
• Do not solder the batteries within the device.
• Do not mix old and new batteries, and do not
mix batteries from dierent manufacturers or
with a diering type designation.
WARNING
If disposed of improperly third parties
can possibly be seriously injured and
the environment polluted. e burning
of plastic components generates toxic
fumes which may impair health of people.
Bat te rie s / re ch arge able b at ter ie s may
explode if they are damaged or heated
excessively, and thereby cause poisoning,
burning, corrosion or environmental
contamination.
If disposed of negligently unauthorized
persons are able to use the product
improperly.
• e product may not be disposed of together
with household waste. Perform a proper
disposal of the device and the accessories
(see
Cha p te r 12 / Dis p o s al )
.
• Protect the product at all times from access
through unauthorized persons, and especially
children.
4.5 Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
e electromagnetic compatibility is the ability
of the product to function in an environment
with electromagnetic radiation and electrostatic
discharges were are present, without causing an
electromagnetic interference for other devices.
4.5.1 INTERFERENCE FOR OTHER DEVICES
THROUGH HDL 80
Although the product meets the strict requirements
of the relevant directives and standards, Hultafors
can not completely exclude the possibility of
interference with other devices (for example,
when using the product in combination with third-
party devices, such as field computers, personal
computers, wireless devices, mobile phones,
certain cables or external batteries).
• When using computers and radio equipment
make sure to observe to the vendor-
specific information about electromagnetic
compatibility.
• Only use original Hultafors equipment and
accessories.
4.5.2 INTERFERENCE OF THE HDL 80
THROUGH OTHER DEVICES
Although the product meets the strict requirements
of the relevant directives and standards, Hultafors
can not entirely exclude the possibility that an intense
electromagnetic radiation in the immediate vicinity of
radio transmitters, two-way radios, diesel generators,
etc. can distort the measurement results.
• When performing measurements under these
conditions check the plausibility of the results.
