power tool repaired before use. Many acci-
dents are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
■
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop-
erly maintained cutting tools with sharp cut-
ting edges are less likely to bind and are eas-
ier to control.
■
Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these instruc-
tions, 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 hazard-
ous situation.
■
Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,
clean and free from oil and grease. Slip-
pery handles and grasping surfaces do not
allow for safe handling and control of the tool
in unexpected situations.

Battery tool use and care

■
Recharge only with the charger specified
by the manufacturer. A charger that is suit-
able for one type of battery pack may create
a risk of fire when used with another battery
pack.
■
Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and
fire.
■
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 con-
nection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
■
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.
■
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modi-
fied batteries may exhibit unpredictable be-
haviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk of
injury.
■
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to
fire or excessive temperature. Exposure to
fire or temperature above 130 °C may cause
explosion.

■
Follow all charging instructions and do
not charge the battery pack or tool out-
side 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.
3.1.6

Service

■
Have your power tool serviced by a quali-
fied repair person using only identical re-
placement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
■
Never service damaged battery packs.
Service of battery packs should only be per-
formed by the manufacturer or authorized
service providers.
3.2

Chain saw safety warnings

■
Keep all parts of the body away from the
saw chain when the chain saw is operat-
ing. Before you start the chain saw, make
sure the saw chain is not contacting any-
thing. A moment of inattention while operat-
ing a chain saw may cause entanglement of
your clothing or body with the saw chain.
■
Always hold the chain saw with your right
hand on the rear handle and your left
hand on the front handle. Holding the chain
saw with the hands reversed increases the
risk of injury and should therefore be avoid-
ed.
■
Hold the chain saw only at the insulated
handles as the saw chain may contact
hidden wiring. Contact between the saw
chain and a live cable can result in electric
current flowing through metal parts of the ap-
pliance, leading to an electric shock.
■
Wear eye protection. Further protective
equipment for ears, head, hands, legs and
feet is recommended. Adequate protective
clothing will reduce the risk of personal injury
from flying debris or accidental contact with
the saw chain.
■
Do not operate the chain saw in a tree,
ladder or roof or other unstable surface.
Operation in this way poses a serious risk of
injury.
■
Always keep proper footing and operate
the chain saw only when standing on
fixed, secure and level surface. Slippery or
unstable surfaces may cause a loss of bal-
ance or control of the chain saw.
