battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid
may be ejected from the battery;
avoid contact. If contact acci-
dentally occurs, flush with wa-
ter. If liquid contacts eyes, ad-
ditionally seek medical help. Li-
quid ejected from the battery may
cause irritation or burns.
e) Do not use a battery pack or
tool that is damaged or modi-
fied. Damaged or modified batter-
ies may exhibit unpredictable be-
haviour resulting in fire, explosion
or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or
tool to fire or excessive temper-
ature. Exposure to fire or temper-
ature above 130°C may cause ex-
plosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions
and do not charge the battery
pack or tool outside the temper-
ature range specified in the in-
structions. Charging improperly or
at temperatures outside the spe-
cified range may damage the bat-
tery and increase the risk of fire.
6. SERVICE
a) Have your power tool serviced
by a qualified repair person us-
ing only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is main-
tained.
b) Never service damaged battery
packs. Service of battery packs
should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service
providers.
Safety information for drills
Safety instructions for all
operations
• Hold the power tool by insulated
gripping surfaces, when per-
forming an operation where the
cutting accessory or fasteners
may contact hidden wiring. Cut-
ting accessories or fasteners con-
tacting a “live” wire may make ex-
posed metal parts of the power
tool “live” and could give the oper-
ator an electric shock.
Safety instructions when using long
drill bits
• Never operate at higher speed
than the maximum speed rating
of the drill bit. At higher speeds,
the bit is likely to bend if allowed to
rotate freely without contacting the
workpiece, resulting in personal in-
jury.
• Always start drilling at low speed
and with the bit tip in contact
with the workpiece. At higher
speeds, the bit is likely to bend
if allowed to rotate freely without
contacting the workpiece, resulting
in personal injury.
• Apply pressure only in direct line
with the bit and do not apply ex-
cessive pressure. Bits can bend
causing breakage or loss of con-
trol, resulting in personal injury.
Additional safety instructions
• Secure the workpiece. A work-
piece clamped with clamping
devices or in a vice is held more
secure than by hand.
• Switch the power tool off im-
mediately if the application tool
becomes blocked. Be prepared
for high torque reactions which
cause kickback. The application
tool becomes blocked when it be-
