Battery
A battery that is new or has not been used for a longer period does
not develop its full capacity until after approx. 2 – 3 charging/
discharging cycles.
Do not place down the battery on radiators or expose it to intense
sunlight for longer periods; temperatures above 50 °C cause damage.
Keep the contacts/terminals of the charger and replaceable battery
clean. For optimal service life, fully charge the battery after use.
Dust Extraction
Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some wood
types, minerals and metal can be harmful to one’s health. Touching
or breathing-in the dusts can cause allergic reactions and/or lead to
respiratory infections of the user or bystanders.
Certain dusts, such as oak or beech dust, are considered carcinogenic,
especially in connection with wood-treatment additives (chromate,
wood preservative). Materials containing asbestos may only be
worked on by specialists.
