ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
FOR TOOL
1. Be aware that this tool is always in an operating
condition, because it does not have to be
plugged into an electrical outlet.
2. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool
may contact hidden wiring. Contact with a "live"
wire will also make exposed metal parts of the
tool "live" and shock the operator.

no one is below when using the tool in high loca-
tions.
4. Hold the tool firmly.
5. Keep hands away from rotating parts.

the battery cartridge.
For Models BFL080F & BFL120F
• To remove the battery cartridge, withdraw it from the
tool while pressing the buttons on both sides of the car-
tridge.
• To insert the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the

it into place. Always insert it all the way until it locks in
place with a little click. If not, it may accidentally fall out
of the tool, causing injury to you or someone around

1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely dis-
charged.
Always stop tool operation and charge the battery car-
tridge when you notice less tool power.

10°C – 40°C (50°F – 104°F).
Let a hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the Nickel Metal Hydride battery cartridge
when you do not use it for more than six months.
