foreseen situations.

3.1.4 Safety in the workplace

■
Keep your working area
clean, and make sure it is
well illuminated. Untidiness
or dimly lit working areas can
lead to accidents.
■
Do not work with the power
tool in a potentially explos-
ive atmosphere with the
presence of flammable li-
quids, gases or dust. Power
tools give rise to sparks that
can ignite the dust or vapours.
■
Keep children and other
people away from the power
tool when using it. If you are
distracted, you may lose con-
trol of the power tool.
3.1.5 Use and handling of the
rechargeable battery-
operated tool
■
Only recharge batteries with
chargers that are recom-
mended by the manufac-
turer. Using a charger inten-
ded for one particular type of
rechargeable battery with a
different type of rechargeable
battery represents a fire risk.
■
Only use batteries in the
power tools that are inten-
ded for this purpose. Using
30
other batteries can lead to in-
juries and represents the risk
of fire.
■
Keep the unused re-
chargeable battery away
from paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other
small metal objects that
could short-circuit the con-
tacts. A short circuit between
the rechargeable battery con-
tacts can result in burns or
fire.
■
Incorrect use can result in
fluid leaking out of the re-
chargeable battery. Avoid
coming into contact with it.
In case of inadvertent con-
tact, rinse off with water. If
the fluid gets into your
eyes, additionally seek
medical assistance. Leaking
rechargeable battery fluid can
lead to skin irritations or
burns.
■
Do not use a damaged or
changed rechargeable bat-
tery. Damaged or changed
batteries can behave unpre-
dictably and lead to fire, ex-
plosion or a risk of injury.
■
Do not expose a re-
chargeable battery to fire or
high temperatures. Fire or
temperatures over 130 °C can
cause an explosion.
