6 SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR STAPLERS
▪
Before inserting staples or nails ensure the machine is switched off or remove the battery
pack.
▪
Never point the machine at persons or animals.
▪
Only use staples or nails which are suitable for the machine.
▪
Before using the machine, ensure that the safety device is operating properly.
▪
Never block the safety device.
▪
Switch the machine off when you take a break and when the work is completed.
▪
Wear ear protectors.
▪
Do not activate the tool unless the tool is placed firmly against the workpiece. If the tool is
not in contact with the workpiece, the fastener may be deflected away from your target.
▪
Do not use the tacker for fastening electrical cables. It is not designed for electric cable
installation and may damage the insulation of electric cables thereby causing electric
shock or fire hazard.
7 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERIES AND
CHARGERS
7.1
Batteries
▪
Never attempt to open for any reason.
▪
Do not store in locations where the temperature may exceed 40 °C.
▪
Charge only at ambient temperatures between 4 °C and 40 °C.
▪
Store your batteries in a cool dry place (5 °C-20 °C). Never store batteries in discharged
state.
▪
It is better for Li-ion batteries to discharge and reload them regularly (at least 4 times a
year). The ideal charge for long-term storage of your Li-ion battery is 40% of capacity.
▪
When disposing of batteries, follow the instructions given in the section "Protecting the
environment".
▪
Do not cause short circuits. If connection is made between the positive (+) and negative
(-) terminal directly or via accidental contact with metallic objects, the battery is short
circuited and an intense current will flow causing heat generation which may lead to
casing rupture or fire.
▪
Do not heat. If batteries are heated to above 100 °C, sealing and insulating separators
and other polymer components may be damaged resulting in electrolyte leakage and/or
internal short circuiting leading to heat generation causing rupture or file. Moreover do
not dispose of the batteries in fire, explosion and/or intense burning may result.
▪
Under extreme conditions, battery leakage may occur. When you notice liquid on the
battery, proceed as follows:
− Carefully wipe the liquid off using a cloth. Avoid skin contact.
− In case of skin or eye contact, follow the instructions below:
✓
Immediately rinse with water. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or
vinegar.
✓
In case of eye contact, rinse abundantly with clean water for at least 10 minutes.
Consult a physician.
Fire hazard! Avoid short-circuiting the contacts of a detached battery. Do not
incinerate the battery.
