tool's operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents 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.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery
handles and grasping surfaces do not allow
for safe handling and control of the tool in
unexpected situations.
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
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
10
from other metal objects, like paper clips,
coins, keys, nails, screws or other small
EN
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.
e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire
or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or
temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or tool outside
the temperature range specified in the
instructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range may
damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
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.
b) Never service damaged battery packs.
Service of battery packs should only be
performed by the manufacturer or authorized
service providers.
1) General pruning saw safety warnings:
a) Keep all parts of the body away from
the saw chain when the pruning saw is
operating. Before you start the pruning
saw, make sure the saw chain is not
contacting anything. A moment of inattention
while operating pruning saws may cause
entanglement of your clothing or body with the
saw chain.
b) Hold the pruning saw by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the saw chain may
contact hidden wiring. Saw chains contacting
a live wire may make exposed metal parts
of the pruning saw live and could give the
operator an electric shock.
c) Wear safety glasses protection. Further
protective equipment for hearing, head,
hands, legs and feet is recommended.
Adequate protective clothing will reduce
personal injury by flying debris or accidental
contact with the saw chain.
d) Do not operate a pruning saw in a tree, on
a ladder, from a rooftop, or any unstable
support. Operation of a pruning saw in this
manner could result in serious personal injury.
e) Always keep proper footing and operate
the pruning saw only when standing on
fixed, secure and level surface. Slippery or
unstable surfaces may cause a loss of balance
or control of the pruning saw.
f) When cutting a limb that is under tension ,
be alert for spring back. When the tension in
the wood fibres is released , the spring loaded
limb may strike the operator and/or throw the
pruning saw out of control.
g) Use extreme caution when cutting brush
and saplings. The slender material may catch
the saw chain and be whipped toward you or
pull you off balance.
h) Carry the pruning saw by the front handle
with the pruning saw switched off and
away from your body. When transporting
or storing the pruning saw , always fit
the guide bar cover. Proper handling of
the pruning saw will reduce the likelihood of
accidental contact with the moving saw chain.
i) Follow instructions for lubricating, chain
tensioning and changing the bar and chain.
Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain
may either break or increase the chance for
kickback.
j) Cut wood only. Do not use pruning saw for
purposes not intended. For example: do not
use pruning saw for cutting metal, plastic,
masonry or non-wood building materials.
Use of the pruning saw for operations different
than intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
k) This pruning saw is not intended for tree
felling. Use of the pruning saw for operations
different than intended could result in serious
injury to the operator or bystanders.
