5.5 Service
▪ Your power tool should be serviced by a qualified specialist using only standard spare
parts. This will ensure that it meets the required safety standards.
6 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR SANDERS
▪ Always wear safety-goggles and a dust-mask during your work with the mouse-sander.
▪ Always secure the work piece by clamps or else to avoid slipping away.
▪ Always keep the holes in the base plate clean from dust.
▪ Always connect a vacuum cleaner to the attached adaptor during your work.
▪ Take special care when sanding lead based paint:
o All persons entering the work area must wear a mask specially designed for
protection against lead paint dust and fumes.
o Children and pregnant women must not enter the work area.
o Do not eat, drink or smoke in the work area.
o Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.
▪ Ventilate your work area adequately when you perform sanding operations.
▪ Be sure that there are no cracks or breakage on the pad before use. Cracks or breakage
may cause a personal injury.
7 ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR BATTERIES AND
CHARGERS
7.1 Batteries
▪ Never attempt to open for any reason.
▪ Do not store in locations where the temperature may exceed 40 °C.
▪ Charge only at ambient temperatures between 4 °C and 40 °C.
▪ Store your batteries in a cool dry place (5 °C-20 °C). Never store batteries in discharged
state.
▪ It is better for Li-ion batteries to discharge and reload them regularly (at least 4 times a
year). The ideal charge for long-term storage of your Li-ion battery is 40% of capacity.
▪ When disposing of batteries, follow the instructions given in the section “Protecting the
environment”.
▪ Do not cause short circuits. If connection is made between the positive (+) and negative (-)
terminal directly or via accidental contact with metallic objects, the battery is short circuited
and an intense current will flow causing heat generation which may lead to casing rupture
or fire.
▪ Do not heat. If batteries are heated to above 100 °C, sealing and insulating separators
and other polymer components may be damaged resulting in electrolyte leakage and/or
internal short circuiting leading to heat generation causing rupture or file. Moreover do not
dispose of the batteries in fire, explosion and/or intense burning may result.
▪ Under extreme conditions, battery leakage may occur. When you notice liquid on the
battery, proceed as follows:
− Carefully wipe the liquid off using a cloth. Avoid skin contact.
− In case of skin or eye contact, follow the instructions below:
✓ Immediately rinse with water. Neutralize with a mild acid such as lemon juice or
vinegar.
✓ In case of eye contact, rinse abundantly with clean water for at least 10 minutes.
Consult a physician.
Fire hazard! Avoid short-circuiting the contacts of a detached battery. Do not
incinerate the battery.
