c. Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or remove the battery pack, if detachable,
from the power tool before making any adjust-
ments, changing accessories, or storing power
tools. Such precautionary measures reduce the
risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with
the power tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the
hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools and accessories. Check
for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition that
may affect the power tool's operation. If dam-
aged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use electric tools, insertion tools, etc. accord-
ing to these instructions. taking into account
the working conditions and the work to be per-
formed. Use of the power tool for operations differ-
ent from those intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
h. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles
and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe han-
dling and control of the tool in unexpected situa-
tions.
5. Service
a. Only have your electric tool repaired by quali-
fied specialists and only with original spare
parts. . This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
m WARNING! This power tool generates an electro-
magnetic field during operation. This field can impair
active or passive medical implants under certain cir-
cumstances. In order to prevent the risk of serious
or deadly injuries, we recommend that persons with
medical implants consult with their physician and the
manufacturer of the medical implant prior to operat-
ing the power tool.

Vibration
m WARNING! Raynaud's syndrome is a vascular dis-
ease that causes the small blood vessels on the fin-
gers and toes to cramp in spasms. The symptoms in-
clude: Insensitivity, loss of sensitivity, tingling, itching,
pain, loss of strength, change in colour or condition
of the skin. The affected areas are no longer supplied
with sufficient blood and therefore appear extremely
pale. The frequent use of vibrating tools can cause
nerve damage in people whose circulation is im-
paired (e.g. smokers, diabetics). If you notice unusual
adverse effects, stop working immediately and seek
medical advice. For long-term and regular users, it is
therefore recommended to closely monitor the condi-
tion of your hands and fingers. Observe the following
information to reduce hazards:
• Keep your body warm, especially your hands, es-
pecially in cool weather.
• Take regular breaks and move your hands to pro-
mote circulation.
• Limit the use of high vibration tools per day and
spread them over several days Make a work sched-
ule that limits vibration exposure.
• Ensure as little vibration as possible of the tool via
regular maintenance and stable parts on the de-
vice. Replace worn parts immediately.
• Change your working position regularly.
• If the machine is to be used or operated frequently,
you should contact your specialist dealer and re-
quest anti-vibration accessories (handles) if appli-
cable.
Chainsaw safety features
• Front hand guard protects the operator's left hand
should it slip off the front handle while the chainsaw
is running.
• The rear hand guard protects the right hand from
contact with a dropped or broken saw chain.
• The chain brake is a safety feature to reduce in-
juries due to kickback by stopping a running saw
chain in milliseconds. It is activated by the front
hand guard in case of kickback.
• The switch lock prevents accidental acceleration of
the engine. The throttle lever can only be pressed
when the switch lock is depressed.
• The claw stop supports the chainsaw on the wood
during work. Never work without a claw stop, the
chainsaw can pull the operator forward. Use the
claw stop for cutting tree trunks or thick branches.
Using the claw stop increases work safety, reduces
personal strain when working and vibrations are
also reduced. The claw stop must always be ap-
plied to the tree trunk when using the chainsaw. Us-
ing the rear handle, press the claw stop against the
tree trunk. To cut, push the front handle towards the
cutting line. The claw stop may have to be reposi-
tioned for further cutting.
