Charging the battery (Fig. 2 and 3)
Please note: The device, battery and charge
are also separately available at retailers!
Please note: Only charge the battery at an
ambient temperature of 10 to 40 °C!
When delivered, the battery is partially char-
ged and must be charged completely before
commissioning the device. To do so, proceed
as follows:
1. Insert the plug of the charger.
2. Insert battery 1 in the charger 2 as shown
in Fig. 2.
3. The yellow light-emitting diode 3 signals the
charging process. When completed, the
green light-emitting diode 4 lights up.
4. Remove the completely charged battery
from the charger.
5. Insert battery 1 as shown in Fig. 3 in the
housing opening of the device until it engages.
To protect the battery from harmful total dischar-
ge while in operation, the charge status is per-
manently monitored electronically and the de-
vice will switch off before it reaches the critical
discharge condition. The battery will now need
to be recharged. Do not attempt to put the device
back into operation with a discharged battery!
6. To charge, press the release buttons 2, pull
out the battery to the rear and carry out
steps 1-5.
The charging process can be interrupted at
any time and continued without damage to the
battery.
Caution!
Drastically reduced operating times after the
charging process indicates that the battery
needs to be replaced!
If after inserting the battery into its designated
opening the light-emitting diode fl ashes instead
of glowing yellow continuously, the cause may
be a too high temperature, a defect, or the total
discharge of the battery.
- 14 -
• If the battery is too hot, the charging process
will start automatically after it cools down.
• If, on the other hand, the battery has a nor-
mal temperature but is totally discharged, the
charger will check if it still draws power or it
if is already defective.
• If the battery can be recovered, the yellow
light-emitting diode will glow continuously-
after some time, signalling the successful
charging process.
• If the yellow light-emitting diode fl ashes, the
battery is defective and needs to be disposed
of; see also "Note on disposal within the EU"
later on in these instructions.
General handling of the device
Caution!
Ensure the work piece is fi xed securely!
Loose work pieces should be clamped in a
suitable fi xture. This prevents the work pieces
from fl ying about
Danger!
Please wear a dust mask as necessary!
Some types of wood or even varnish residues
(or similar) can generate harmful dusts while
working. If you are unsure of the harmlessness
of your material to be ground, please wear a
dust protection mask! Ensure the work place is
well ventilated in any case and work with a va-
cuum cleaner for dust extraction as necessary!
Hold power tool by insulated gripping sur-
faces, when performing an operation where
the cutting accessory may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory con-
tacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
Caution!
The battery must be removed from the device
before assembly, adjustment (except the belt
running adjustment), maintenance measures
or repair!
