a battery in a machine which is switched
on can cause outbreak of fire.
• 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.
• Never use the battery charger in
environments in the presence of vapours,
flammable substances or on easily
flammable surfaces such as paper, fabric,
etc. The battery charger heats up during
recharging and may cause a fire.
• When transporting batteries, make
sure the contacts never come into
contact with each other and never use
metal containers to transport them.

2.6 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION

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.
• Scrupulously 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.
• Scrupulously comply with local regulations
for the disposal of waste materials
• When the machine is withdrawn from service,
do not dump 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 a landfill
or in the ground, the harmful substances can
reach the aquifer and enter the food chain,
damaging your health and wellbeing. For further
information on disposing of this product, contact
the competent authority for the disposal of
domestic waste or your dealer.
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 chain saw.
The machine is essentially composed of
a battery powered motor and a guide bar
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 handgrips, and can use the
main controls, always remaining at a safe
distance from the cutting means.
3.1.1

Intended use

This machine was designed
and manufactured for:
– felling, bucking and delimbing trees
with dimensions suitable for the length
of the guide bar or wooden objects
with the same characteristics;
– use by one operator.

3.1.2 Improper use

Any other usage not in keeping with the above-
mentioned ones may be hazardous and harm
persons and/or cause damage. Examples of
improper use may include, but are not limited to:
– trimming hedges;
