Weighted effective value of acceleration
The indicated weighted effective value of acceleration has been measured against standard test procedures
and can be used by way of comparison with another device. The indicated weighted effective value of accel-
eration can also be used as a preliminary evaluation of the exposure.
CAUTION
The indicated weighted effective value of acceleration can differ during operation from the indicated value,
dependent on the manner in which the device is used. Dependent upon the actual conditions of use (periodic
duty) it may be necessary to establish safety precautions for the protection of the operator.

2. Preparations for Use

2.1. Electrical connection

WARNING
Mains voltage present! Before connecting the REMS rapid charger, check whether the voltage given on the
rating plate corresponds to the mains voltage. Only operate the electrical device on the mains with a 30 mA
fault current protection (FI switch) on building sites, in a humid environment or in similar types of application.
Rechargeable batteries
NOTICE
Always hold the battery (8) upright when inserting it in the drive unit or the rapid charger. If inserted at an
angle it can cause damage to the contacts and result in a short circuit which damages the battery.
Total discharging by undervoltage
The Li-Ion batteries may not drop below a minimum voltage because otherwise the battery could be damaged
by "total discharge". The cells of the REMS Li-Ion battery are delivered pre-charged to approx. 40 %. There-
fore the Li-Ion batteries must be charged before use and recharged regularly. Failure to observe this regula-
tion of the cell manufacturer can lead to damage to the Li-Ion battery by total discharging.
Total discharging due to storage
If a relatively low charged Li-Ion battery is stored, self discharging can lead to total discharge damage of the
battery after longer storage. Li-Ion batteries must therefore be charged before storing and recharged every
six months at the latest and charged again before use.
NOTICE
Charge the battery before use. Recharge Li­Ion batteries regularly to avoid their total discharge. The
rechargeable battery will be damaged by total discharge.

Only use a REMS rapid charger for charging. New Li-Ion batteries and Li-Ion batteries which have not been
used for a long time only reach full capacity after several charges.
Rapid charger Li­ion/NiCd (Art. No. 571560)
The left control lamp lights up and remains green when the mains plug is plugged in. If a battery is inserted
in the rapid charger, the green control lamp flashes to indicate that the battery is charging. The green light
stops flashing and remains on to signal that the battery is fully charged. If the red control lamp flashes, the
battery is defective. If the red control lamp comes on and remains on, this indicates that the temperature of
the rapid charger and / or the battery is outside the permissible range.
