Use the battery only in AMPShare partner products. 18V
batteries marked with AMPShare are fully compatible
with the following products:
– All products of the FEIN-18V-AMPShare system
– All 18V products from AMPShare partners.
When working with and charging incorrect, damaged,
repaired or reconditioned batteries, imitations or other
brands, there is danger of fire and/or explosion.
Observe the battery recommendations in the operating
instructions for your product. Only in this way can the
battery and the product be operated safely, and the bat-
teries are protected from dangerous overload.
Only charge the batteries with chargers recommended
by FEIN or one of the AMPShare partners. A charger that
is suitable one type of battery pack may create a risk of
fire when used with another battery pack.
The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full
battery capacity, completely charge the battery in the
battery charger before using for the first time.
Store batteries out of the reach of children.
Batteries must not be disassembled, opened or reduced
in size. Do not subject batteries to mechanical impact
or shock. Hazardous vapours and fluid can escape in
case of damage and improper use of the battery. The
vapours can irritate the respiratory system. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause skin irritations or
burns.
In case of skin contact with battery fluid, rinse immedi-
ately with plenty of water. In case of eye contact with
battery fluid, wash out the eye with clean water and
immediately seek a doctor for treatment!
When the battery fluid has come into contact with
objects close by, check the respective components.
Avoid skin contact by wearing protective gloves. Clean
the parts with dry household paper or replace the parts
if necessary. Escaping vapours can irritate the respira-
tory system. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
skin irritations or burns.
Do not short-circuit the battery. Keep the battery not
being used away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws or other small metal objects, that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause burns or a fire.
The battery can be damaged by sharp objects such as
nails or screwdrivers or by external force. An internal
short-circuit may occur and the battery can burn,
smoke, explode or overheat.
Never maintain damaged batteries. Any maintenance of
batteries should be performed only by the manufac-
turer or by authorised after-sales service centers.
Protect the battery against heat, e.g., against
continuous intense sunlight, fire, debris, water,
max.50°C
and moisture. Danger of explosion and short-
circuiting.
Operate and store the battery only at ambient tempera-
tures between -20 °C and +50 °C. As an example, do not
leave the battery in a vehicle in summer. At tempera-
tures < 0 °C, machine-specific performance restrictions
are possible.
Charge the battery only at ambient temperatures
between 0 °C and +35 °C. Charge the battery via USB
connection only at ambient temperatures between
+10 °C and +35 °C. Charging the battery outside the
temperature range may damage the battery or increase
the risk of fire.
Handle discharged batteries with care. Batteries are a
source of danger, as they can cause a very high short-
circuit current. Even when Li-ion batteries appear to be
in a discharged state, they never fully discharge.
Do not immerse the battery in liquids, such as (salt)
water or beverages. Contact with liquids can damage
the battery. This may result in heat build-up, smoke
generation, ignition or explosion of the battery. Do not
continue to use the battery and contact an after-sales
service authorized by FEIN.
Do not use a damaged battery. The use of a battery
must be stopped immediately as soon as abnormal
properties, such as odour development, heat, discolour-
ation or deformation occur. Continued operation can
cause the battery to generate heat and smoke, ignite or
explode.
Do not open, crush, overheat or set fire to the battery.
Non-observance of this warning may result in burns
and fire. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.
Extinguish burning Li-ion batteries with water, sand or
a fire blanket.
Avoid physical blows/impact. Impact and penetration of
objects can damage batteries. This may result in leak-
age, heat build-up, smoke generation, ignition or explo-
sion of the battery.
Never charge the battery unattended overnight. Fire
and explosion hazards can result in case of non-observ-
ance.
Do not remove the battery from its original packaging
until it is going to be used.
Remove the battery only when the power tool is
switched off.
Before any work on the machine itself, remove the bat-
tery from the power tool. If the power tool accidentally
starts, there is danger of injury.
Protect the battery against moisture and water. Clean
contaminated battery terminals and power tool con-
nections with a dry, clean cloth.
Remove the battery when transporting and storing the
power tool.
Observe the safety instructions in the manuals of the
chargers from FEIN or the AMPShare partners.
Vibration and noise emission values
The vibration and noise emission values given in these
instructions have been measured according to a meas-
urement method standardised in EN 62841 and can be
used to compare power tools with each other. They are
also suitable for a preliminary assessment of vibration
and noise exposure.
The given vibration and noise emission values rep-
resent the main applications of the power tool.
