15. Reduce the risk of unintentional starting – Make sure
not press the trigger switch before inserting the battery.
16. Use recommended accessories –
Consult the owner’s
manual for recommended accessories. The use of
improper accessories may cause risk of injury.
17. Check for damaged parts – Before each use, repair, or
replace any guard or part that is damaged. In addition,
check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts, and any other conditions that
may affect the tool's operation.
18. Never leave tool unattended while it is running – Turn
the power OFF by removing the power cord directly from
its socket. Do not leave the saw until the cutting bar
comes to a complete stop.
19. Avoid unintentional starting – Do not carry the cordless
chain saw with your finger on the switch.
20. Do not grasp the exposed cutting blade or cutting
edges when picking up or holding the saw – Be sure to
encase the cutting bar in its protective sheath when not
in use.
21. Stay alert –
Watch what you are doing. Use common
sense. Do not operate the chain saw when you are tired.
22. Store idle tool indoors – When not in use, appliances
should be stored indoors in a dry and high or locked-up
place out of the reach of children.

WARNING!
Some dust and debris created by the
use of the tool could contain chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• Chemicals in fertilizers
• Compounds in insecticides, herbicides, and pesticides
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber
Your risk from exposure to these chemicals varies, and
depends on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure, work in a well-ventilated area and with
approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Chain Saw Safety Warnings
• Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain when
the chain saw is operating. Before you start the chain saw,
make sure the saw chain is not contacting anything. A
moment of inattention while operating the chain saw may
cause entanglement of your clothing or body with the saw
chain.
• Always hold the chain saw with your right hand on the rear
handle and your left hand on the front handle. Holding the
chain saw with a reversed hand configuration increases
the risk of personal injury and should never be done.
• Wear safety glasses and hearing protection. If you are
using the chain saw every day under normal conditions,
you can be exposed to a noise level of 85 dB (A) or higher.
Further protective equipment for head, hands, legs and
feet is recommended. Adequate protective clothing will
reduce personal injury by flying debris or accidental
contact with the saw chain.
• Do not operate the chain saw in a tree. Operation of a
chain saw while up in a tree may result in personal injury.
• Always keep proper footing and operate the chain saw
only when standing on a fixed, secure and level surface.
Slippery or unstable surfaces such as ladders may cause
a loss of balance or control of the chain saw.
• When cutting a limb that is under tension, be cautious
of spring back. When the tension in the wood fibers is
released, the spring-loaded limb may strike the operator
and/or throw the chain saw out of control.
• 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.
• Carry the chain saw by the front handle with the chain saw
switched off and away from your body. When transporting
or storing the chain saw, always fit the guide bar cover.
Proper handling of the chain saw will reduce the likelihood
of accidental contact with the moving saw chain.
• Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning and
changing accessories. An improperly tensioned or poorly
lubricated chain may either break or increase the chance
for kickback.
• Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Greasy, oily handles are slippery and can cause loss of
control.
• Cut wood only. Do not use the chain saw for any other
purpose. For example, do not use the chain saw to cut
plastic, masonry or non-wood building materials. Using
the chain saw in these incorrect ways could result in
serious damage to you and your tool.

Safety Instructions
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery
pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries that are safe,
durable and have a high energy density. The battery cells have
a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially
formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded.
This data is then used exclusively to be able to assemble the
best possible battery packs.
Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be
exercised when handling batteries. The following points must
be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use can only
be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling
of the battery pack can cause cell damage.
