After about 50 consecutive compressions, it should be made to rest for at
least 15 min. to allow it to cool.
11. Do not burn the tool, charger or rechargeable batteries! Rechargeable
batteries may explode and flare up.
12. As a result of improper use, liquid can leak from the battery. Avoid contact
with this liquid. In the event of inadvertent contact, rinse off with water.
Should the liquid enter the eyes, obtain medical assistance as well.
Processing at temperatures under -10 °C and over +45 °C may result in
damage to jointing components, to the tool and/or in personal injury!
