tool that can no longer be switched on and oﬀ is dangerous and must be repaired.

c)Pull the mains plug out of the socket and / or remove the rechargeable bat- tery before you make any adjustments to the device, change accessories or when the device is put away. This pre- caution is intended to prevent the device from unintentionally starting.

d)When not in use always ensure that electrical power tools are kept out of reach of children. Do not let anyone use the device if he or she is not familiar with it or has not read the instructions and advice. Electrical power tools are dan- gerous when they are used by inexperienced people.

e)Look after the device carefully. Check that moving parts are working prop- erly and move freely. Check for any parts that are broken or damaged enough to detrimentally affect the functioning of the device. Have dam- aged parts repaired before you use the device. Many accidents have their origins in poorly maintained electrical power tools.

f)Keep cutting tools clean and sharp. Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to jam and are easier to control.

g)Use the electrical power tool, accesso- ries, inserted tools etc. in accordance with these instructions and advice, and the stipulations drawn up for this par- ticular type of device. In doing this, take into account the working conditions and the task in hand. The use of electrical power tools for purposes other than those in- tended can lead to dangerous situations.

5.Use and handling of the cord- less electrical power tool

a)Charge a rechargeable battery unit using only the charger recommended by the manufacturer. Chargers are often designed for a particular type of rechargeable

battery unit. There is the danger of ﬁre if other types of rechargeable battery units are used.

b)Only the rechargeable battery units supplied are to be used with an elec- trical power tool. The use of other recharge- able battery units may lead to the danger of injury or ﬁre.

c)When they are not being used, store rechargeable battery units away from paperclips, coins, keys. nails, screws or other small metal objects that could cause the contacts to be bridged. Short- circuiting the contacts of a rechargeable battery unit may result in heat damage or ﬁre.

d)Fluids may leak out of rechargeable battery units if they are misused. If this happens, avoid contact with the ﬂuid. If contact occurs, ﬂush the aﬀect- ed area with water. Seek additional medical help if any of the ﬂuid gets into your eyes. Escaping battery ﬂuid may cause skin irritation or burns.

Safety advice relating to cordless drill drivers

Securely support the workpiece. A workpiece held in a clamp or vice is kept more securely in place than one held by your hand.

WARNING! POISONOUS DUSTS! Harmful / noxious dusts generated from your work represent a risk to the health of the person operating the device and to anyone near the work area.

Wear safety glasses and a dust mask!

Do not drill any material containing asbestos. Asbestos is a known carcinogen. Hold the electrical power tool ﬁrmly. High reaction torques may occur momentarily during tightening or loosening of screws.

If the inserted tool jams, switch oﬀ the electrical power tool immediately. Be prepared for high reaction torques as they may cause kickback. The inserted tool may jam if the electrical power tool is overloaded or is held at an angle to the workpiece.
