Safety recommendations for battery loading
Attention! Before loading may start make sure the body of the charger, the cable and the plug are not broken or damaged. It is prohibi-
ted to use a damaged loading dock and charger! For the purpose of loading batteries only the charging dock and the charger provided
may be used. Using another charger may be a cause of fire or damage the tool. Batteries may be charged only in a dry room, protected
from unauthorised persons, particularly children. Do not use the charging dock and the charger without 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 approxi-
mately 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.
Battery charging
Note! Prior to charge, unplug the charger from mains by pulling the plug off the socket. In addition, clean the contacts of charger plug as
well as product's charge terminal. For this purpose it is necessary to use a jet of compressed air at a pressure not more than 0.3 MPa.
For purpose of cleaning do not use sharp or metal objects.
Connect the cable plug to charger, then connect the cable plug to product's socket (II). Plugs have been designed in such a way that
only proper connection to sockets is possible. Do not apply excessive force when connecting plugs to socket. If a plug does not fit to
socket, change its position.
Plug the charger to mains.
The product has charge indicator. If the indicator starts to light in red during operation, this indicates that product's battery needs
charging.
If the indicator lights in green continuously, this indicates that the battery is fully charged.
Unplug the charger from mains socket, then unplug the cable plug from the product and from the charger.
Note! In the course of charging it is not possible to use the product. During charging, the grip handle of the product and charger cover
may heat up, this is normal phenomenon.
Adding and replacing staples
Note! During staples replacement and adding do not press the trigger.
Turn the product over.
Press simultaneously both pusher latches and remove the pusher from the magazine (III).
Remove staples from the magazine.
Make sure no staples or impurities remain in the magazine. Prior to installation of new staples, clean the magazine entirely.
Install new pack of staples, sliding it into magazine (III). Open part of staples must be directed toward the bottom of the tool. Staples
should always be installed in form of a single pack. It is forbidden to install single staples and adding one pack to the other.
Install only staples of dimensions specified in the table with technical data.
