other checks or assemble the product.
• The operator must only do the maintenance and
servicing shown in this operator's manual. Turn to
your servicing dealer for maintenance and
servicing of a larger extension.
• Do not clean the battery or the battery charger with
water. Strong detergent can cause damage to the
plastic.
• If you do not do maintenance, it decreases the life
cycle of the product and increases the risk of
accidents.
• Special training is necessary for all servicing and
repair work, especially for the safety devices on the

Safety instructions for the cutting equipment
WARNING:
Read the warning
instructions that follow before you use the
product.
• Only use approved guide bar/saw chain
combinations and filing equipment. Refer to
for instructions.
• Use protective gloves when you use or do
maintenance on the saw chain. A saw chain that
does not move can also cause injuries.
• Keep the cutting teeth correctly sharpened. Obey
the instructions and use the recommended file
gauge. A saw chain that is damaged or incorrectly
sharpened increases the risk of accidents.
• Keep the correct depth gauge setting. Obey the
instructions and use the recommended depth
gauge setting. Too large depth gauge setting
increases the risk of kickback.
• Make sure that the saw chain has the correct
tension. If the saw chain is not tight against the
guide bar, the saw chain can derail. An incorrect
saw chain tension increases wear on the guide bar,
saw chain and chain drive sprocket. Refer to
.
• Do maintenance on the cutting equipment regularly
and keep it correctly lubricated. If the saw chain is
not correctly lubricated, the risk of wear on the
guide bar, saw chain and chain drive sprocket
increases.
