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 re.
4.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact acci-
dentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid con-
tacts 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 modied. Damaged or modied batteries
may exhibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in
re, explosion or risk of injury.
6. Do not expose a battery pack or tool to re or
excessive temperature. Exposure to re 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 specied in the instruc-
tions. Charging improperly or at temperatures
outside the specied range may damage the
battery and increase the risk of re.
Service
1.
Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
2. Follow instruction for lubricating and chang-
ing accessories.
3.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
4. Do not modify or attempt to repair the appli-
ance or the battery pack except as indicated in
the instructions for use and care.
Cordless Chain saw safety warnings
1.
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 inatten-
tion while operating chain saws may cause entan-
glement of your clothing or body with the saw chain.
2. 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 conguration increases the risk of
personal injury and should never be done.
3.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping sur-
faces only, because the saw chain may contact
hidden wiring. Saw chains contacting a "live" wire
may make exposed metal parts of the power tool
"live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
4. Wear safety glasses and hearing protection.
Further protective equipment for head, hands,
legs and feet is recommended. Adequate protec-
tive clothing will reduce personal injury by ying
debris or accidental contact with the saw chain.
5.
Do not operate a chain saw in a tree. Operation of a
chain saw while up in a tree may result in personal injury.
6. Always keep proper footing and operate the
chain saw only when standing on xed, secure
and level surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces
such as ladders may cause a loss of balance or
control of the chain saw.
7.
When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert
for spring back. When the tension in the wood bres
is released the spring loaded limb may strike the
operator and/or throw the chain saw out of control.
8.
Use extreme caution when cutting brush and sap-
lings. The slender material may catch the saw chain
and be whipped toward you or pull you o balance.
9. Carry the chain saw by the front handle with
the chain saw switched o and away from your
body. When transporting or storing the chain
saw always t the guide bar cover. Proper
handling of the chain saw will reduce the likelihood
of accidental contact with the moving saw chain.
10. Follow instructions for lubricating, chain ten-
sioning and changing accessories. Improperly
tensioned or lubricated chain may either break or
increase the chance for kickback.
11. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and
grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing
loss of control.
12. Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for pur-
poses not intended. For example: do not use
chain saw for cutting plastic, masonry or non-
wood building materials. Use of the chain saw
for operations dierent than intended could result
in a hazardous situation.
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 chain saw user,
you should take several steps to keep your cutting
jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incor-
rect operating procedures or conditions and can be
avoided by taking proper precautions as given below:
•
Maintain a rm grip, with thumbs and
ngers encircling the chain saw handles,
with both hands on the saw and position
your body and arm to allow you to resist
kickback forces. Kickback forces can be con-
trolled by the operator, if proper precautions
are taken. Do not let go of the chain saw.
