c) Use only batteries specifically designed
for your power tool. The use of other
batteries may cause injuries and fire risks.
d) Keep all unused batteries at a distance
from paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws or other small metal objects as
contact with the same can cause short
circuits. Short circuits between battery
contacts can lead to explosion or fires.
e) Batteries in poor condition can cause
liquids to leak. Avoid contact with the
liquid. In the case of accidental contact
flush with water. If the liquid comes into
contact with the eyes, also seek medical
advice. Liquid leaking from the battery
may cause skin irritation or burns.
f) Check that the accumulator is in good
condition and there are no signs of
damage. Do not use the device with
a damaged or worn accumulator.

2.4 PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

Safeguarding the environment must be a relevant
and priority aspect of machine use, of benefit to
the community and the environment we live in.
• Avoid being a disturbance to the
neighbourhood. Use this machine at
reasonable times of the day only (not
early morning or late evening when the
noise could cause disturbance).
• A certain amount of chain lubricating oil
is released into the environment when
the machine is running, so only use
biodegradable oils made specifically for this
use. Use of a mineral oil or motor oil causes
serious damage to the environment.
• Comply with local regulations for the
disposal of packaging, deteriorated parts or
any elements with a strong environmental
impact; this waste must not be disposed of
as normal waste, it must be separated and
taken to specified waste disposal centres
where the material will be recycled.
• Comply with local regulations for
the disposal of waste materials
• When the machine is withdrawn from service,
do not dispose of it in the environment,
but take it to a waste disposal facility in
accordance with the local regulations in force.
Do not throw electrical equipment away
with domestic waste. According to the
European Directive 2012/19/EU on
electrical and electronic equipment
waste and its implementation in
compliance with national standards, old electrical
equipment must be collected separately, for eco-
compatible recycling. If electrical equipment is
disposed of in landfills or in the ground,
hazardous substances can leak into the
groundwater and contaminate the food chain,
damaging your health and well-being. For further
information on the disposal of this product,
contact your dealer or a domestic waste
collection service.
At the end of their working life, dispose of
batteries paying due attention to the
environment. Batteries contain material
classified as hazardous for you and the
environment. They must be removed and
disposed of separately at a facility that accepts
lithium-ion batteries.
Separate waste collection of the products
and packaging used allows the materials
to be recycled and reused. Reuse of
recycled materials help to prevent
environmental pollution and reduces the
demand for raw materials.

3. GETTING TO KNOW THE MACHINE

3.1 DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE
AND PLANNED USE
This machine is a forestry tool and
precisely a battery powered chainsaw
designed for trimming and pruning
work performed directly on the tree.
The machine is essentially composed of a
battery powered motor and a guide bar that
that takes the power from the battery to the
motor which drives the cutting chain.
The operator is able to operate the machine with
two hands, using the front and rear hand grips,
and can use the main controls, always remaining
at a safe distance from the cutting means.

3.1.1 Intended use

This special type of chainsaw
has been designed specifically for the
trimming of trees and must only be used
by a trained operator following carefully
planned and secure work instructions.
This chainsaw is only destined to the
trimming of trees when the above-
mentioned conditions are complied with.
It is generally conceived for use with two
hands, just like a standard chainsaw.
Some national regulations can
restrict use of the machine.
This machine was designed
and manufactured for:
