Do not charge the battery in the rain or in lo-
■
cations where it might be exposed to spray or
moisture. If the battery is charged while wet,
electric shocks or short-circuiting is possible,
which could result in burning and a fire.
Do not touch the mains plug with wet hands. If
■
you touch it with wet hands, you could receive
an electric shock.
Do not cover the charger with a cloth or
■
similar. Application of a cover can generate
heat, resulting in deep-discharging or a fire.
Do not place the charger close to a fire or
■
naked flame.
Do not charge the battery in the vicinity of
■
combustible substances.
Charge the battery in a well ventilated
■
location and protect it against direct sunlight.
Charging in direct sunlight may overheat the
charger, which could result in deep-dischar-
ging or a fire.
Charge the battery in an ambient tempera-
■
ture range of 0°C to 40°C. If the ambient
temperature is below 0°C to 40°C, charging
may not be permissible because it could result
in a fire.
Do not allow any foreign bodies to get into
■
the ventilation openings or the battery contact
socket of the charger. Otherwise an electric
shock or other malfunctions could occur. Only
use the device in dust-free locations.
Handle the mains cable with care. If you
■
carry the mains adapter using the mains
cable or pull it out of the mains socket via the
mains cable, the cable could be damaged
or cracked, which in turn could lead to a
short-circuit. Ensure that it does not come into
contact with cutting blades, hot substances, oil
or grease. Replace a damaged mains cable
with a new cable.
Safety instructions
If the battery has been disconnected from
■
the tool housing, cover it with a sealing cap
until it is used again. To prevent short-circuits,
cover the terminal block (metal part) of the
unused battery with the cap provided with the
packaging.
Do not short-circuit the terminal block (metal
■
part) of the battery. If it is short-circuited, a
large current flows, overheating the battery,
which could result in burning or damage.
Do not throw the battery into the fire. Failure to
■
comply could result in an explosion.
When connecting the battery to the device,
■
observe the following to prevent malfunctions.
• Do not place your finger on the trigger.
• Do not press the workpiece contact against
• Keep your fingers or hand away from the

■
odours or noise. When the tool is activated
and then generates unusual odours or noise,
this is an indication of a fault. Use of the tool
in this condition can result in accidents. Con-
tact an authorised Würth dealer if anomalies
occur.
Disconnect the charger from the mains when it
■
is not being used.
Avoid direct sunlight. Do not leave the tool in a
■
vehicle or luggage compartment in which the
temperature could increase because otherwise
it might explode.
Keep the tool away from fires and naked
■
flames.
Ensure that you use the tool in a working envi-
■
ronment of -10 °C to 40 °C, because other-
wise the tool could ignite or explode. -10 °C
or less: The tool body could be damaged.
40°C or greater: The gas cartridge could be
damaged, which could result in ignition or
explosion.
Do not use the tool in the rain or in very damp
