The time it takes to fully recharge an empty
battery is approximately 3 to 5 hours. The
temperature of the battery pack might rise
slightly during the charging operation. This is
normal.

Battery does not charge up
If the battery fails to charge, please check
- whether there is voltage at the socket outlet.
- whether there is good contact at the charging
contacts.
- whether the red LED and the green LED (Fig.
3/ Item A) light up at the same time. This can
happen, for example, if the battery tempera-
ture becomes too low or too high. Place the
unit in storage at room temperature for one
day.
If you still fail to charge the battery pack, please
return the complete tool together with the battery
charger to our Customer Service Center.
To ensure that items are properly packaged
and delivered when you send them to us,
please contact our customer service or the

When shipping or disposing of batteries and
cordless tools, always ensure that they are
packed individually in plastic bags to prevent
short circuits and fi res.
To ensure that the battery pack provides long ser-
vice, you should take care to recharge it promptly.
You must recharge the battery pack when you
notice that the performance of the device drops.
Never allow the battery pack to become fully di-
scharged. This will cause it to develop a defect.
Warning! Any foreign bodies must be com-
pletely cleared away from the area to be
worked on.
Warning!
The switching devices installed on the tool
by the manufacturer are not allowed to be
removed or bypassed, e.g. by fi tting a swit-
ching button to the handle, as this may result
in risk of injury and the tool will no longer
switch off automatically.
