necting the tool to the mains supply with the switch in
'ON' position, this may result in accidents.
d) Remove adjustment tools or wrenches and the
like before you switch the power tool on. A wrench
or other tool that is inside or on a rotating part of the
tool may cause injury.
e) Avoid unusual postures. Make sure to have a
safe footing and keep your balance at all times.
This will allow you to better control the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f) Wear suitable clothes. Do not wear wide clothing
or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothes and gloves
clear of all moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery
or long hair may get caught in moving parts.
g) If dust extraction/collection devices are provided
make sure that they are connected and used
properly. The use of a dust extraction device may
reduce risks caused by dust.
4) Use and handling of the power tool
a) Do not overtax the power tool. Use the power
tool intended for your type of work in each case.
The use of the suitable power tool within the stated
range of performance makes working more effective
and safer.
b) Do not use a power tool with a damaged switch. A
power tool that cannot be switched on or off any more
is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Pull the mains plug and/or remove the battery
before adjusting a tool, changing accessories or
putting the tool aside. This precaution avoids the
unintentional start of the tool.
d) Store power tools that are currently not used out
of the reach of children. Do not allow persons to
use the tool if they are not familiar with the tool
or these instructions. Power tools are dangerous if
used by inexperienced persons.
e) Thoroughly maintain your power tool. Check
whether moving parts are working properly and
are not jamming/sticking, and whether parts
are broken or otherwise damaged in a way that
may affect the function of the power tool. Have
damaged parts repaired before using the tool.
Many accidents are the result of poorly maintained
power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Thoroughly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are
jamming less often and are easier to guide.
g) Use power tools, accessories, add-on tools, etc.
in accordance with these instructions and in the
way prescribed for the respective type of tool.
You should also consider the working conditions
and the work to be carried out. The use of power
tools for purposes other than those intended for the
respective tool may result in dangerous 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

from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects,
that can make a connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.

dentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid con-
tacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
cal personnel only; repairs should be carried out
using exclusively original spare parts. This will en-
sure the continued safe operation of the power tool.
Keep the cable away from the cutting area. When
working with the tool the cable might be hidden in
bushes and accidentally cut through.
Keep all parts of your body clear of the chain
while the saw is running. Before starting the saw,
make sure that the chain does not touch any ob-
jects. When working with a chain saw, even a short
moment of inattentiveness may result in clothes or
parts of the body being caught by the chain.
Always hold the chain saw with your right hand
at the rear handle and your left hand at the front
handle. Holding the chain saw differently (left hand
– rear handle / right hand – front handle) during
operation will increase the risk of injury and is not
permitted.
Hold the electric equipment by its insulated
handle surfaces, as the chainsaw can come into
contact with its own mains power cable. If the
chainsaw comes into contact with a live cable, it can
energise metal parts of the equipment and cause an
.
electric shock
Wear eye and hearing protection. Other personal
protection equipment for the head, hands, legs
and feet is recommended. Proper protective cloth-
ing and protection equipment reduce the risk of injury
caused by thrown-about wood chips and accidental
contact with the chain.
Do not operate the chain saw on trees. Operating
a chain saw while situated on a tree involves a high
risk of injury.
Make sure to have a safe stand at any time, and
only use the chain saw when standing on solid,
safe and level ground. A slippery ground or instable
surfaces as the steps of a ladder may lead to loosing
balance or the control over the chain saw.
When cutting a branch that is under tension take
into account that it will spring back. When the
tension of the wood fibres is released the tensioned
branch may hit the operator and/or the chain saw
resulting in a loss of control.
Apply particular caution when cutting brush and
young trees. The thin material may get caught in the
chain and hit you or throw you off balance.
