Bosch 0 601 2A6 580 Original Instructions Manual page 11

Remove the rechargeable battery before adjusting the
u
tool settings, changing accessories, or storing the
heat gun. This safety measure prevents the heat gun
from being started accidentally.
Keep your work area well-ventilated. The
gas and steam produced during work are often
harmful to one's health.
Wear protective gloves and do not touch the nozzle
u
while it is hot. There is a risk of burns.
Do not direct the airflow at persons or animals.
u
Do not use the heat gun as a hair dryer. The outgoing
u
airflow is considerably hotter than that of a hair dryer.
Do not allow foreign objects to enter the heat gun.
u
The distance between the nozzle and the workpiece
u
depends on the material you are working on (metal,
plastic, etc.) and the intended working method. Al-
ways test the amount of air and temperature first.
Do not open the battery. There is a risk of short-circuit-
u
ing.
In case of damage and improper use of the battery, va-
u
pours may be emitted. The battery can set alight or ex-
plode. Ensure the area is well ventilated and seek medical
attention should you experience any adverse effects. The
vapours may irritate the respiratory system.
If used incorrectly or if the battery is damaged, flam-
u
mable liquid may be ejected from the battery. Contact
with this liquid should be avoided. If contact accident-
ally occurs, rinse off with water. If the liquid comes
into contact with your eyes, seek additional medical
attention. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause ir-
ritation or burns.
The battery can be damaged by pointed objects such
u
as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally.
An internal short circuit may occur, causing the battery to
burn, smoke, explode or overheat.
When the battery is not in use, keep it away from pa-
u
per clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small
metal objects that could make a connection from one
terminal to another. A short circuit between the battery
terminals may cause burns or a fire.
Only use the battery with products from the manufac-
u
turer. This is the only way in which you can protect the
battery against dangerous overload.
Only charge the batteries using chargers recommen-
u
ded by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for
one type of battery may pose a fire risk when used with a
different battery.
Protect the battery against heat, e.g. against
continuous intense sunlight, fire, dirt, water
and moisture. There is a risk of explosion and
short-circuiting.
