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 designated 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 irritation or burns.
6) Service
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
Safety warnings (IEC 60745-2-
13:2006+A1:2009)
• Keep all parts of the body away
from the saw when the saw is
operating. Before you start the
saw, make sure the saw is not in
contact with anything. A moment
of inattention while operating saws
may cause entanglement of your
clothing or body with the saw.

• Always hold the power tool with
the right hand on the main handle
and the left hand on the support
handle. Holding the tool with the
hand configuration reversed in-
creases the risk of personal injury
and should never be done.
• Hold the power tool by its insu-
lated gripping surfaces only, be-
cause the saw may touch hidden
wiring or its own cord. Saws
touching a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the ope-
rator an electric shock.
• Wear safety glasses and hea-
ring protection. Further protective
equipment for head, hands, legs
and feet is recommended. Ade-
quate protective clothing will redu-
ce personal injury by flying debris
or accidental contact with the saw.
• Do not operate a saw while up
in a tree. Operation of a saw whi-
le up in a tree may result in per-
sonal injury.
• Always keep proper footing
and operate the saw only when
standing on a fixed, secure and
level surface. Slippery or unsta-
ble surfaces such as ladders may
cause a loss of balance or con-
trol of the saw.
• When cutting a limb that is un-
der tension be alert for spring
back. When the tension in the
wood fibers is released the
spring loaded limb may strike
the operator and/or throw the
saw out of control.
• Use extreme caution when cut-
ting brush and grass. The slen-
der material may catch the saw
and be whipped toward you or
pull you off balance.
