Original instructions English We declare under our sole responsibility: These cordless cartridge guns, identified by type and serial number *1), comply with all relevant require- ments of the directives *2) and standards *3). Tech- nical file at *4) - see page 3. The device is designed to extrude sealant or adhe- sive from cartridges or plastic bags. It is not designed for foodstuffs or for medical/veter- inary purposes. It should not be used with pressur- ized cartridges. The caulking gun should also not be used as a lifting/spreading tool. The user bears sole responsibility for any damage caused by improper use. Generally accepted accident prevention regula- tions and the enclosed safety information must be observed. For your own protection and for the protection of your electrical tool, pay attention to all parts of the text that are marked with this symbol! WARNING – Reading the operating instruc- tions will reduce the risk of injury. Pass on your electrical tool only together with these documents. General Power Tool Safety Warnings WARNING – Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference! The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

3.1 Work area safety

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flam- mable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

3.2 Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching out- lets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medi- cation. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

3.4 Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalign- ment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many acci- dents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

3.5 Battery tool use and care

a) Recharge only with the charger specified by the 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 desig- nated 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 irri- tation or burns.

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. Slightly acidic, flammable fluid may leak from defective li-ion battery packs! If battery fluid leaks out and comes into contact with your skin, rinse immediately with plenty of water. If battery fluid leaks out and comes into contact with your eyes, wash them with clean water and seek medical attention imme- diately. If the machine is defective, remove the battery pack from the machine. Protect battery packs from water and mois- ture! Do not use faulty or deformed battery packs! Do not expose battery packs to naked flame! Do not open battery packs! Do not touch or short-circuit battery packs! Remove the battery pack from the machine before any adjustments, conversions or servicing are performed. Before fitting the battery pack, make sure that the machine is switched off. Do not use frozen or set adhesive or sealant. Do not overload the motor! If the motor is over- loaded, switch off the device and remove the battery pack. Determine the cause of the problem and resolve it. Refer to the instructions for assembling the device. Ensure that the front cap, tube and threaded ring are correctly fitted and securely fastened. Always wear protective goggles. Danger of crushing! Do not take hold of the toothed rod (5)! Ensure that nothing is caught by the toothed rod. Follow national requirements for the materials you want to work with. Refer to the glue or adhesive manufacturers' instructions and alsothe safety data sheet for the consumable material. Adhesives and sealants can be dangerous. For this reason, you should always carefully read any instructions on the container or other information provided by the manufacturer about the material to be used. Do not use materials without knowing what risks they entail. Do not use any solvent, acidic or other abrasive cleaning agents. Store the device and its components in a safe place (e. g. ensure that the dismantled tube (3) is not allowed to roll away). Transport of li-ion battery packs: The shipping of li-ion battery pack is subject to laws related to the carriage of hazardous goods (UN 3480 and UN 3481). Inform yourself of the currently

valid specifications when shipping li-ion battery packs. If necessary, consult your freight forwarder. Certified packaging is available from Metabo. Only send the battery pack if the housing is intact and no fluid is leaking. Remove the battery pack from the machine for sending.

Multifunctional monitoring system If the device switches off automatically, the machine electronics have activated automatic protection mode. Causes and remedies:

1. Battery pack almost flat (the electronics

prevent the battery pack from discharging totally and avoid irreparable damage). If the battery pack is almost flat, it must be recharged.

2. Long continuous overloading of the machine will

activate the temperature cut-out. Leave the machine or battery pack to cool.

3. If the current is too high (for example, during

extended periods of overloading) the device is switched off. Using the trigger switch, turn off the device (7) and remove the battery pack. Determine the cause of the problem and resolve it.

7.2 Setting the feed rate

Set the feed rate using the adjusting wheel (8).

7.3 Switching on and off

Switching on: press the trigger switch (7). Switching off: release the trigger switch (7). Note: The toothed rod is automatically retracted slightly to avoid dripping. However, if you activate the trigger switch at brief intervals (shorter than 1 second), the rod is not auto- matically retracted. This allows precise dosage of volumes. Note: The motor switches off automatically if either the cartridge or the plastic bag is empty. Only use original Metabo battery packs and Metabo accessories.
