Battery tool use and care
1.
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.
2.
Use power tools only with specifically desig
-
nated battery packs.
Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
3.
When 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 make a connection from one
terminal to another.
Shorting the battery termi-
nals together may cause burns or a fire.
4.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If con
-
tact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If
liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical
help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause
irritation or burns.
5.
Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam
-
aged or modified.
Damaged or modified batteries
may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in
fire, explosion or risk of injury.
6.
Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or tem
-
perature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
7.
Follow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or tool outside the
temperature range specified in the instruc
-
tions.
Charging improperly or at temperatures
outside the specified range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of fire.
Service
1.
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
2.
Never service damaged battery packs.
Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
3.
Follow instruction for lubricating and chang
-
ing accessories.
General pruner saw safety warnings
1.
Keep all parts of the body away from the
saw chain when the pruner saw is operating.
Before you start the pruner saw, make sure
the saw chain is not contacting anything.
A
moment of inattention while operating pruner saws
may cause entanglement of your clothing or body
with the saw chain.
2.
Always hold the pruner saw with one hand on
the rear handle and the other hand on the front
handle.
3.
Hold the pruner saw by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the saw chain may con
-
tact hidden wiring.
Saw chains contacting a “live”
wire may make exposed metal parts of the pruner
saw “live” and could give the operator an electric
shock.
4.
Wear eye protection. Further protective equip
-
ment for hearing, head, hands, legs and feet is
recommended.
Adequate protective equipment
will reduce personal injury from flying debris or
accidental contact with the saw chain.
5.
Do not operate a pruner saw in a tree, on a lad
-
der, from a rooftop, or any unstable support.
Operation of a pruner saw in this manner could
result in serious personal injury.
6.
Always keep proper footing and operate the
pruner saw only when standing on fixed,
secure and level surface.
Slippery or unstable
surfaces may cause a loss of balance or control of
the pruner saw.
7.
When cutting a branch that is under tension,
be alert for spring back.
When the tension in the
wood fibres is released, the spring loaded branch
may strike the operator and/or throw the pruner
saw out of control.
8.
Use extreme caution when cutting brush and
saplings.
The slender material may catch the saw
chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off
balance.
9.
Carry the pruner saw with the pruner saw
switched off and away from your body. When
transporting or storing the pruner saw, always
fit the guide bar cover.
Proper handling of the
pruner saw will reduce the likelihood of accidental
contact with the moving saw chain.
10.
Follow instructions for lubricating, chain
tensioning and changing the bar and chain.
Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may
either break or increase the chance for kickback.
11.
Cut wood only. Do not use pruner saw for pur
-
poses not intended. For example: do not use
pruner saw for cutting metal, plastic, masonry
or non-wood building materials.
Use of the
pruner saw for operations different than intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
12.
This pruner saw is not intended for tree felling.
Use of the pruner saw for operations different than
intended could result in serious injury to the opera
-
tor or bystanders.
13.
Causes and operator prevention of kickback:
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the
guide bar touches an object, or when the wood
closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden
reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and
back towards the operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide
bar may push the guide bar rapidly back towards
the operator.
Either of these reactions may cause you to lose
control of the saw which could result in serious
personal injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the
safety devices built into your saw. As a pruner saw
user, you should take several steps to keep your
cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of pruner saw misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and
can be avoided by taking proper precautions as
given below:
