Safety instructions
Before you do any work with the
cordless pruner, make yourself
familiar with all operating parts.
Practise using the saw (sawing
logs on a sawhorse) and get an
experienced user or a specialist to
explain to you the function of the
saw, the way of working, the tech -
niques of sawing and the personal
protection equipment.
If an accident or fault occurs during
operation, immediately switch off
the device and disconnect at the
plug. Treat injuries appropriately or
consult a doctor. For the correction
of faults, read the “Troubleshooting”
chapter or contact our service cen-
tre.
General safety instructions
for power tools
WARNING! Read all safety di-
rections and instructions.
Omis -
sions in the compliance with safety
directions and instructions can
cause electrical shock, fire and/or
severe injuries.
Retain all safety directions and in-
structions for future use.
The term “Power Tools” used in the safety
instructions refers to mains-operated pow -
er tools (with power cord) and to battery-
operated power tools (without power cord).
Work area safety:
•
Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
•
Do not operate power tools in ex -
plosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable Iiquids, gas -
es or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders
away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
Electrical safety:
•
Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in
any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools.
Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce risk of
electric shock
• Avoid body contact with earthed
or grounded surfaces, such as
pipes, radiators, ranges and refrig-
erators.
There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is earthed
or grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain
or wet conditions.
Water entering
a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use
the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged
or entangled cords increase the risk
of electric shock.
•
When operating a power tool out -
doors, use an extension cord suit-
able for outdoor use.
