GENERAL SAFETY CONDITIONS

NOTE! Get acquainted with all the instructions below. Failure to observe them may lead to an electric shock, fire or injuries. The notion of electric tool used in the instructions applies to all the tools which are powered with electric current, both wire tools and wireless ones.

OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS

Place of work The place of work must be properly illuminated and clean. Disorder and poor illumination may be a cause of accidents. Do not work with electric tools in explosive environments, or those which contain inflammable liquids, gases or vapours. Electric tools generate sparks, which may cause a fire in case of contact with inflammable gases or vapours. Do not allow children and outsiders to the place of work. A lack of concentration may result in a loss of control over the tool. Electric safety The plug of the power supply cable must fit the mains socket. Do not modify the plug. Do not use any adapters whatsoever in order to adapt the plug to the socket. Unmodified plug which fits the socket reduces the risk of an electric shock. Avoid contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, heaters and refrigerators. Grounding of the body increases the risk of an electric shock.GB ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS

Do not expose electric tools to precipitation or humidity. Water and humidity which gets into the electric tool increases the risk of an electric shock. Do not overload the power supply cable. Do not use the power supply cable in order to carry the tool or to connect and disconnect the plug from the mains socket. Avoid contact of the power supply cable with heat, oils, sharp tools and moving elements. Damage to the power supply cable increases the risk of an electric shock. In case work is realised outside closed areas, it is necessary to use extension cords designed for applications outside closed areas. Using a correct extension cord permits to reduce the risk of an electric shock. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RDC) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock. Personal safety Commence work in good physical and psychological conditions. Pay attention to what you do. Do not work if you are tired or under effects of medicines or alcohol. Even a moment’s inattention during work may lead to serious injuries. Always use individual means of protection. Always wear goggles. Using individual means of protection, such as dust-masks, protective shoes, helmets and hearing protections permits to reduce the risk of serious injuries. Avoid accidental activation of the tool. Make sure the switch is in the OFF position, before you connect the tool to the mains. Holding the tool with a finger on the switch or connecting an electric tool when the switch is in the ON position may lead to serious injuries. Before you turn an electric tool on remove all the spanners and other tools, which have been used for adjustments. A spanner left on rotating elements of the tool may lead to serious injuries. Keep your balance. Maintain an appropriate position. It will permit to control the electric tool in case of unpredicted situations during its operation. Use protective clothes. Do not wear loose clothes or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothes and gloves away from moving elements of the electric tool. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair may get caught on moving elements of the tool. Use dust extractors or dust containers, if the tool is equipped with any. Make sure they are properly connected. Using of dust extractors permits to reduce the risk of serious injuries. Caution when using a power tool. Before inserting a battery pack make sure that the switch stays in “OFF” position. Inserting a battery pack into a power tool, when the switch is in “ON” position may cause accidents. Use only chargers recommended by the manufacturer. Using a charger designed for only one type of battery pack, to charge other types of battery pack may be a cause of fire. Use power tools only with battery pack specified by the manufacturer. Use of other battery pack may be a cause of injuries or fire. When the battery pack is not used, it should be stored away from metal objects, such as paper clips, coins, nails, bolts or other small metal elements, that may short the terminals. Shorting terminals of a battery may cause burns or fire. In adverse conditions, a liquid may escape from a battery; avoid any contact with this liquid. In case of accidental contact with a liquid, rinse with water. If a liquid gets into your eyes, please seek medical advice. A liquid escaping from a battery may cause irritations or burns. Repairs The tool may be repaired only by authorised service centres, which must use solely original spare parts. It will guarantee a proper level of safety of operation of the electric tool.

SPECIAL SAFETY CONDITIONS

Always assume that the tool contains fasteners. Gripping the tool without proper care may result in unexpected firing of fastener and injury. Do not aim the tool at yourself or at other persons that stay nearby. Unexpected pressing of trigger will cause firing of fastener causing an injury. Do not start the tool until the tool is securely placed on a work piece. If the tool has no contact with the work piece, a fastener may rebound from the target point. Disconnect the tool from power supply in case the fastener jams in the tool. When removing the fastener jammed, the tool must not be accidentally activated if it is on. Be cautious when removing the fastener jammed. The mechanism may be squeezed and the fastener may be released with suffi- cient force when removing the jammed element. Do not use the tool for mounting electric cables. The tool has not been designed for installation of electric cables and may damage the insulation of electric cables resulting in hazard of electric shock and fire.

Note! All operations described in this chapter should be carried out with power supply off. Make sure that the switch remains in “OFF - O” position [V].GB ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS

Safety recommendations for battery loading Attention! Before loading may start make sure the body of the charger, the cable and the plug are not broken or damaged. It is prohibi- ted to use a damaged loading dock and charger! For the purpose of loading batteries only the charging dock and the charger provided may be used. Using another charger may be a cause of fire or damage the tool. Batteries may be charged only in a dry room, protected from unauthorised persons, particularly children. Do not use the charging dock and the charger without permanent supervision of an adult! If it is necessary to leave the room where loading is taking place, it is required to disconnect the charger from the mains, removing the charger from the mains socket. In case when smoke comes out of the charger, or a strange smell is emitted, etc., it is required to immediately remove the plug of the charger from the mains socket! The drill and automatic return screwdriver is provided with an unloaded battery, so before work may commence, it is required to charge it following the procedure below, using the charger and charging dock provided. Li-ION batteries do not show the so called “memory effect”, so it is allowed to charge them at any moment. However, it is recommended to discharge them during normal work, and then load them to their full capacity. If due to the nature of the task it is not possible to do so each time, then it is required to do it at least from time to time. Under no circumstances is it allowed to discharge the batteries short-circuiting the electrodes, since this would cause irreversible damage! It is also prohibited to check the load of the batteries, short-circuiting the electrodes for sparking. Storage of the battery In order to prolong the life of the battery, it is required to provide adequate storage conditions. The batteries can go through approxi- mately 500 „loading - discharging” cycles. The battery must be stored between 0 and 30°C, at the relative humidity of 50%. In order to store the battery for a prolonged period, it is required to charge it to approximately 70% of its capacity. In case of prolonged storage, it is required to recharge the battery once a year. Do not permit excessive discharging of the battery, since this would reduce its life and may cause irreversible damage. During storage, the battery will be gradually unloading due to leakage conductance. The process of automatic unloading depends on the temperature of storage, since the higher the temperature, the fastest the process. In case of incorrect storage of batteries, there is a danger of electrolyte leakage. In case of leakage, it is required protect the leakage with neutralizing agent. In case of contact of electrolyte with the eyes, it is required to rinse the eyes abundantly, and then immediately seek medical assistance. It is prohibited to use a tool with a damaged battery. In case the battery is completely worn out, it is required to deposit it at a special point dedicated to disposal of such waste. Transport of the batteries Lithium-ion batteries are in accordance with legal regulations treated as dangerous waste. The user of the tool may transport the tool with the battery or only batteries by land. Then no additional conditions must be complied with. In transport is realised by third parties (for example dispatch through courier service), then it is required to proceed in accordance with regulations for transport of dangerous materials. Before shipment, contact an authorised person. It is prohibited to transport damaged batteries. During transport the battery must be removed from the tool, and the exposed contacts protected, e.g. with insulating tape. Protect the batteries so that they do not move inside the package during transport. It is also required comply with the national regulations for transport of dangerous materials. Battery charging Note! Prior to charge, unplug the charger from mains by pulling the plug off the socket. In addition, clean the contacts of charger plug as well as product’s charge terminal. For this purpose it is necessary to use a jet of compressed air at a pressure not more than 0.3 MPa. For purpose of cleaning do not use sharp or metal objects. Connect the cable plug to charger, then connect the cable plug to product’s socket (II). Plugs have been designed in such a way that only proper connection to sockets is possible. Do not apply excessive force when connecting plugs to socket. If a plug does not fit to socket, change its position. Plug the charger to mains. The product has charge indicator. If the indicator starts to light in red during operation, this indicates that product’s battery needs charging. If the indicator lights in green continuously, this indicates that the battery is fully charged. Unplug the charger from mains socket, then unplug the cable plug from the product and from the charger. Note! In the course of charging it is not possible to use the product. During charging, the grip handle of the product and charger cover may heat up, this is normal phenomenon. Adding and replacing staples Note! During staples replacement and adding do not press the trigger. Turn the product over. Press simultaneously both pusher latches and remove the pusher from the magazine (III). Remove staples from the magazine. Make sure no staples or impurities remain in the magazine. Prior to installation of new staples, clean the magazine entirely. Install new pack of staples, sliding it into magazine (III). Open part of staples must be directed toward the bottom of the tool. Staples should always be installed in form of a single pack. It is forbidden to install single staples and adding one pack to the other. Install only staples of dimensions specified in the table with technical data.GB ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS

Failure to observe the aforementioned rules may lead to staples being jammed in the mechanism of staple gun, and may also lead to damage of the gun. Insert staple pusher and make sure, that both latches work, and the pusher will not move back by accident during work (IV).

WORKING WITH PRODUCT

Note! It is recommended prior to normal operation to make a test on waste material. Grab the product’s grip handle in such a way as to prevent pressing the trigger. Switch the product’s switch to “ON-I” position. Attach the product’s base to materials to be bonded and slightly press down (VI). This will make the safety catch moving back and prepare the product for operation. Press the trigger, this will cause firing of single staple onto materials to be bonded. Release the trigger. Lift the staple gun and move it to new place of firing staple, repeat the procedure of staple firing. After the completion of work switch the switch to “OFF-O” position and then empty the magazine from remaining staples. Note! In case staples are fired into soft wood (e.g. pine, spruce) it is recommended not to press down the staple gun to substrate too much. This may result in imprints in wood. Note! The staple gun has no staple firing speed adjustment. If a staple is not entirely embedded, this means the materials were too hard. In such case replace the materials or staple gun. Jamming removal If staples are jammed, first disconnect power supply by switching the switch to “OFF-O” position. Directing the staple outlet away from yourself and other persons and animals. Move out the pusher from the magazine. Remove pack of staples, and then remove the jamming. When removing the jamming, special care should be taken as not to damage the staple firing mechanism. Do not use sharp or hard tool for this purpose. After removal of jamming install staples in the magazine and make a test on waste material. Additional notes The staple gun is not designed for construction works. You cannot install construction materials using it. Avoid pressing the trigger when the magazine is empty, i.e. the so-called “empty firing”. Failure to observe this rule may lead to faster wear and tear of staple firing mechanism, which will result in improper product operation. Make regular breaks during the work. Do not exceed product’s rated capacity. Do not overload the tool, temperature of external surfaces can never exceed 60 °C. Declared total value of vibration was measured by means of standardized test method and can be used to compare one tool with the other. Declared total value of vibration can be used in the initial exposure assessment. Note! Emission of vibration when working with the tool may vary from the declared value, depending on how the tool is used. Note! It is required to determine safety measures to protect the operator, which are based on the exposure assessment in real condi- tions of use (including all elements of work cycle, such as for example time when tool is switched off or idling and time of activation).

MAINTENANCE AND OVERHAUL

ATTENTION! Before any adjustment, technical service or maintenance operations unplug the tool. Once the operations have been finished, the technical conditions of the tool must be assessed by means of external evaluation and inspection of the following ele- ments: body and handle, conductor with a plug and deflection, functioning of the electric switch, patency of ventilation slots, sparking of brushes, noise level of functioning of bearings and gears, start-up and smoothness of operation. During the guarantee period, the user cannot dismantle the electric tools or change any sub-assemblies or elements, since it will cancel any guarantee rights. All irregularities detected at overhaul or during functioning of the tools are a signal to have the tool repaired at a service shop. Once the functioning has been concluded, the casing, ventilation slots, switches, additional handle and protections must be cleansed with a stream of air (at a pressure not exceeding 0.3 MPa), with a brush or a cloth without any chemical substances or cleaning liquids. Tools and handles must be cleansed with a clean cloth.D ORIGINALANLEITUNG
