• Maintain power tools. Poorly maintained power tools cause many accidents. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may
affect the power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use?
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., by these instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be performed. Using the power tool for operations
different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Battery tool use and care
• Recharge only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another.
• Use power tools only with specifically designated battery packs. Using other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
• When the 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 connect one terminal. 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. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or
burns. If liquid contacts the eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Service
• Have your power tool serviced by a quali- fied repair person using only identical replacement
parts. That will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety instructions for Chain Saws
• When the saw is running, keep all body parts away from the saw chain. Before starting the saw,
ensure that the saw chain touches nothing. When working with a chain saw, a moment of
inattention may result in clothing or body parts being caught by the chain saw.
• Always hold the chain saw with your right hand on the rear handle and your left hand on the
front handle. Having the chain saw in reverse working position increases the risk of injuries and
must be avoided.
