ambient temperatures < 4 °C or > 40 °C.
Recommended charging temperature:
approx. 24 °C.
• To charge the battery pack (6), insert it into the
charger (7) as shown and plug in the charger.
Be sure that the battery pack is fully seated in the
charger. The red charging indicator (8) will blink.
After approx. 1 hour, it will stop blinking and
remain on. The battery pack is now fully charged
and the charger automatically switches to
equalization mode. After approx. 2-4 hours,
it will switch to maintenance charge mode.
The battery pack can be removed at any time or
left in the connected charger indefinitely.
• The red charging indicator flashes rapidly to
indicate a charging problem. Reinsert the battery
pack or try a new one. If the new pack also
refuses to charge, have your charger tested by
an authorized Elu repair agent.
• When plugged into power sources such as
generators or sources that convert DC to AC,
the red charging indicator (8) may blink twice,
switch OFF and repeat. This indicates a
temporary problem of the power source.
The charger will automatically switch back to
normal operation.
Refresh mode (fig. A)
The refresh mode helps to maintain
the optimum capacity of the battery
pack. It is therefore recommended to
use the refresh mode weekly or every
10 charge/discharge cycles. Please
make sure to use the feature
whenever you notice decreased
battery pack performance.
• Start the charging process as described above.
• Press the refresh mode button (9). The red
charging indicator will stop blinking momentarily,
quickly blink three times and then resume blinking
as before. The charger is now in refresh mode.

Replacing the saw blade (fig. B)

Saw blades
A wide variety of dedicated saw blades is available
as an option.
Always select your saw blade with great
care.
Instructions for use
• Always observe the safety instructions
and applicable regulations.
• Ensure the material to be sawn is
secured in place.
• Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool
and do not exert side pressure on the
saw blade. If possible, work with the saw
shoe pressed against the workpiece.
This prevents damage to the blade and
stops the tool from jerking and vibrating.
• When sawing in walls or floors be aware
of the location of pipework and wiring.
Always hold the tool by its handle.
• Avoid overloading.
