1. Important notes

Please read the instructions for use carefully and
observe the information provided. It is important to
consult these instructions in order to acquaint
yourself with the tool, its proper use and safety
precautions.
Important!
For safety reasons this battery-powered tree
pruning saw is not to be used by children, young
people under 16 years of age, or any other
persons who are not acquainted with these
instructions for use.
The replaceable battery supplied with your cord-
less multi-saw is not charged. Before the saw can
be used for the first time, you must charge the
battery.
The battery does not reach its maximum
capacitance until it has been charged and
discharged approximately five times.
NC batteries lose their charge even when they
are not being used. Regular charging is therefore
recommended. Capacitance losses can be
compensated by timer-controlled daily recharging
periods of approx. 30 minutes.
Please check the data marked on the rating plate
of the battery charger. Connect the battery
charger only to an identical mains supply to that
on the rating plate.
In heavy use the battery will become warm. Allow
it to cool to room temperature before
commencing with the charging.
Keep the battery away from fire and water.
Never use defective or deformed batteries.
Never open a battery!
Never short-circuit the battery contacts.

Used and defective batteries do not belong in the
refuse bin. Think of the environment - cadmium is
toxic. For proper disposal of used and defective
batteries, send them postage-paid to Einhell or take
them to a special collecting station in your area. Ask
at your local council offices for the nearest used
battery collecting station.
