permanent supervision of an adult! If it is necessary to leave the room where loading is taking place, it is required to disconnect the
charger from the mains, removing the charger from the mains socket. In case when smoke comes out of the charger, or a strange
smell is emitted, etc., it is required to immediately remove the plug of the charger from the mains socket!
The drill and automatic return screwdriver is provided with an unloaded battery, so before work may commence, it is required to
charge it following the procedure below, using the charger and charging dock provided. Li-ION batteries do not show the so called
"memory effect", so it is allowed to charge them at any moment. However, it is recommended to discharge them during normal work,
and then load them to their full capacity. If due to the nature of the task it is not possible to do so each time, then it is required to do
it at least from time to time. Under no circumstances is it allowed to discharge the batteries short-circuiting the electrodes, since this
would cause irreversible damage! It is also prohibited to check the load of the batteries, short-circuiting the electrodes for sparking.
Storage of the battery
In order to prolong the life of the battery, it is required to provide adequate storage conditions. The batteries can go through ap-
proximately 500 „loading - discharging" cycles. The battery must be stored between 0 and 30°C, at the relative humidity of 50%. In
order to store the battery for a prolonged period, it is required to charge it to approximately 70% of its capacity. In case of prolonged
storage, it is required to recharge the battery once a year. Do not permit excessive discharging of the battery, since this would
reduce its life and may cause irreversible damage.
During storage, the battery will be gradually unloading due to leakage conductance. The process of automatic unloading depends
on the temperature of storage, since the higher the temperature, the fastest the process. In case of incorrect storage of batteries,
there is a danger of electrolyte leakage. In case of leakage, it is required protect the leakage with neutralizing agent. In case of
contact of electrolyte with the eyes, it is required to rinse the eyes abundantly, and then immediately seek medical assistance. It
is prohibited to use a tool with a damaged battery.
In case the battery is completely worn out, it is required to deposit it at a special point dedicated to disposal of such waste.
Transport of the batteries
Lithium-ion batteries are in accordance with legal regulations treated as dangerous waste. The user of the tool may transport the
tool with the battery or only batteries by land. Then no additional conditions must be complied with. In transport is realised by third
parties (for example dispatch through courier service), then it is required to proceed in accordance with regulations for transport
of dangerous materials. Before shipment, contact an authorised person.
It is prohibited to transport damaged batteries. During transport the battery must be removed from the tool, and the exposed
contacts protected, e.g. with insulating tape. Protect the batteries so that they do not move inside the package during transport. It
is also required comply with the national regulations for transport of dangerous materials.
Charging the battery
Note! Prior to charging, unplug the charger of docking station from the mains, by pulling off the plug of the charger from the mains
socket. Also clean the battery and its terminals of dirt and dust using soft and dry cloth.
Disconnect the battery from the tool by pressing the latch or both latches at the same time, and then slide it out from the battery
socket.
Plug the charger to battery's socket (II)
Plug the charger to mains.
The diode lights up which indicates the start of charging process.
After charging is finished, the diode changes its colour from red to green, which indicates power supply to the charger.
Pull off the charger plug from the mains socket, and the plug of the charger cable should be disconnected from the battery.
Attention! If, when the charger is connected to the power supply, the green LED is on, this indicates a fully charged battery. In this
case, the charger does not start charging.
Mounting and replacing the saw blade
You should check whether the blade is not damaged, cracked, whether the cutting teeth are not broken, etc. In the case of dam-
age, replace the saw blade for a new one.
Saw blades differ depending on their assignation. Saw blades for wood and wood-based materials have widely spaced teeth and
saw blades for metal and plastic have finer teeth. You should select a saw blade suitable for the planned work. Mount the saw
blade with its teeth facing forward.
The blade should be put in the spindle gap, so it will rest by its back on the notch in the roll.
Attention! Mounting the saw blade should be carried out in the protective gloves. This will reduce the risk of injury.
Turn the clamping sleeve of the spindle and hold it, and to the spindle gap insert the blade holder (III). Allow the sleeve to go back
to its starting position and make sure that the blade has been properly fixed: i.e. the clamp sleeve is in its original position, and the
saw blade can not be removed from the spindle.
The saw blade removal should be carried out in reverse order.
