accessories, and attachments. Failure to do so can cause
possible injury, can contribute to poor performance, and
may void your warranty.
WARNING
Before inspecting, cleaning, or servicing the product;
stop the motor, wait for all moving parts to stop, and
remove the battery. Failure to follow these instructions
can result in serious personal injury or property damage.
WARNING
Servicing requires extreme care and knowledge
and should be performed only by a quali
fi ed service
technician. Have the product serviced by an authorised
service centre only. When servicing, use only original
replacement parts.
■
Turn off and remove the battery pack before conducting
any maintenance or cleaning work.
■
You may make adjustments and repairs described in
this manual. For other repairs, contact an authorised
service centre.
■
After each use, clean the product with a soft, dry cloth.
Any part that is damaged should be properly repaired or
replaced by an authorised service centre.
■
Check all nuts, bolts, and screws at frequent intervals
for proper tightness to ensure that the product is in safe
working condition.
■
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types
of commercial solvents and may be damaged by their
use. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, or grease.
■
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, or penetrating oils, come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic which may result in serious personal
injury.
NOTE: To ensure long and reliable service, carry out the
following maintenance regularly.
■
Check for obvious defects such as loose, dislodged, or
damaged blade; loose fixings; and worn or damaged
components.
■
Check if the covers and guards are undamaged and
correctly fitted. Carry out necessary maintenance or
repairs before using the product.
■
Always clean the cutting blades after operation.
■
Visually check the condition of the cutting edges of the
cutting blade. Any damaged blade should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorised service centre.
■
Store the product and make sure the cutting mechanism
has stopped before setting the product down.
CLEARING A BLOCKAGE
See pages 147 - 148.
■
If the blades are jammed by splinters or bark between
the blades and can’t be released by pushing the trigger
3 to 4 times, follow this procedure:
●
Wear goggles and gloves.
●
Remove the battery.
●
Use a piece of wood or a rubber hammer and hit
against the blade.
●
Apply force only to the area where the blade is
shown. Do not hit the spring.
■
Be aware of the spring-loaded blades. Keep hands
away from the blades, they will open suddenly.
■
When the blockage debris has cleared:
●
Insert the battery.
●
When the blades are released, push the trigger
before continuing to cut so that the blades can open
fully.
RESIDUAL RISKS
Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still
impossible to completely eliminate certain residual risk
factors. The following hazards may arise in use and the
operator should pay special attention to avoid the following:
■
injury caused by vibration
– Always use the right tool for the job, use designated
handles and restrict working time and exposure.
■
injury caused by contact with blades
– Ensure that the blade protectors are fitted when the
product is not in use. Keep hands and feet away
from the blades at all times.
■
injury caused by thrown-out pieces of the workpiece
(wood chips, splinters)
– Wear eye and head protection at all times.
RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from hand-held tools
may contribute to a condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome
in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling,
numbness, and blanching of the
fi ngers, usually apparent
upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to
cold and dampness, diet, smoking, and work practices
are all thought to contribute to the development of these
symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the
operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:
■
Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating
the product, wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists
warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor
contributing to Raynaud’s Syndrome.
■
After each period of operation, exercise to increase
blood circulation.
■
Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of
exposure per day.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition,
immediately discontinue use and see your physician.
