manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of
battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create
a risk of injury and fire.
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects, like 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.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged
or modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk
of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excessive
temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above 130 °C
may cause explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions and do not charge the
battery pack or tool outside the temperature range
specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
6. Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
b) Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery
packs should only be performed by the manufacturer or
authorized service providers.
Safety instructions for colour application
devices
1. Risks of Fire and Explosion
When spraying flammable coatings vapours from
paint and solvents can cause flammable gases to be
produced in the work area (hazard area).
Risk of fire and explosion due to ignition sources in
this danger zone.
The electrically operated spray device contains
potential ignition sources (spark formation when
switching the motor on and off, when inserting and
removing the power plug, due to potential static

electricity at the spray gun)
-> Device must not be used at operating sites that fall
under the explosion protection ordinance.
-> Do not use combustible coating substances and
cleaning agents -> observe product data sheets!
-> Always seal paint or solvent containers tightly in
the vicinity of the device.
-> No ignition sources such as open fire, lit tobacco
products, glowing wires, hot surfaces, sparks e.g. due
to angle grinders etc. must be present.
-> When cleaning devices with flammable solvents,
remove the battery and clean thoroughly with a brush
and cloth. Before starting the device up again, ensure
that all traces of solvents are removed thoroughly.
Allow the cleaned parts to dry completely.
2. Warning: Danger of injury!
Never point spray gun at yourself, other persons or
animals.
3. Wear breathing equipment when spraying.
The user should be supplied with a breathing mask. In order
to avoid occupational diseases, the working instructions
provided by the manufacturer of the materials, solvents
and cleaning agents used must be complied with during
preparation, working with and cleaning the equipment.
Protective clothing, gloves and, if necessary, protective skin
cream is required to protect the skin.
4. Warning: When working with the paint spraying
system both indoors and outdoors, ensure that
no solvent-based vapours can form within the
area of the paint spraying system. When working
in closed places a sufficient ventilation must
be ensured to remove the solvent vapours.
5. Warning: The device is not splash proof. It should
not be used, neither outdoors in the rain nor be
sprayed with water nor immersed in liquid. Do
not use the device in damp or wet environments.
6. Attention! Never operate the device if the nozzle
seal is missing, damaged or incorrectly mounted.
If the nozzle seal is either missing, damaged
or incorrectly mounted liquids can enter the
device and increase the risk of an electric shock.
Check
the
nozzle
7. The units may only be used with a functional valve.
If paints rises in the ventilating hose (Fig. 1, item
4) do not operate the unit further! Dismantle and
clean the ventilating hose, valve and diaphragm and
seal
before
each
use.
