1_MACHINE SPECIFIC SAFETY WARNINGS
Keep your whole body away from the saw when it is in
operation. Before operating the saw make sure that the
chain is not in contact with anything.
Keep the handles dry and free of moisture and oil. A slippery
handle can lead to accidents.
Always put the protective sheath on the blade when the tool
is not in use. Exposed blades can cause accidents.
Always hold the tool with both hands, one hand on the main
handle controlling the trigger while the other hand holds
the auxiliary handle. Holding the tool with only one hand or
incorrectly can cause accidents.
Always hold the tool by the rubber areas. The saw could cut
a hidden cable and cause an electric shock to the operator.
Switch o the power tool immediately if it becomes jammed.
Before making any cuts, make sure that there are no cables,
wires or other solid items between branches or hedges.
Hidden obstacles can lead to loss of control of the machine,
accidents and damage to the tool.
Always maintain a rm and safe working posture. Using the
tool in awkward positions can lead to accidents.
Make safe cuts by resting the saw on the tool's fulcrum.
Do not attempt to cut anything until the machine is switched
on and running at full power. If the tool is operated while
in contact with any material, the chain may bounce or jam
causing accidents.
When you have completed a cut, turn the tool o and do not
remove it from the material until it has come to a complete
stop. In this way you can avoid bouncing and kickback.
Only use chains and bars that are in perfect condition. The
use of dull or damaged chains can aect the quality of the cut
and cause accidents.
Do not brake the saw by applying excessive pressure on
the cut or by pressing sideways against the cutting material.
This could damage the tool and break the chain causing
accidents.
Do not cut with the tool at an angle of more than 60° to the
ground. This could cause the branches you are cutting to fall
on you.
Always keep the working space clear with escape routes. If
you are cutting a thick branch, you must have a quick and
easy way to get away from the area where the branch will
fall.
Be aware of weather and wind conditions. Do not use the tool
when it is raining or windy to avoid accidents and damage to
the tool.
Disconnect the battery whenever the tool is not in use,
whether for transport, adjustment, maintenance or storage.
Be especially careful not to accidentally operate the switch.
Use skin, eye and respiratory protection.
Avoid kickback, kickback and jamming. These incidents
occur when touching any material with the tip of the saw
in operation, or while making a cut in wood where the cut
is constricted by the weight of the workpiece trapping the
chain. When the tool is subjected to this type of situation,
the tool can bounce violently against the material, become
jammed or cause a kickback that pushes the tool against the
operator.
All of these situations pose a risk to the operator, so extreme
caution must be exercised and all safety precautions in this
instruction manual must be followed:
- Maintain a rm grip, keeping ngers and other body parts
away from the chain. Holding the tool rmly allows you to
control it in the event of kickback or recoil.
- Do not cut in awkward, unstable positions, stretching or
holding the body of the tool by raising your arms above
shoulder height. This prevents unintentional contact with the
tip of the tool.
- Use only manufacturer's approved spare parts.
- Keep the chain sharp and all components well maintained
and cared for.
- Before starting work ensure that the chain is in good
condition, correctly tensioned, lubricated and tted to the bar,
with all components securely locked into position.
BATTERIES USE AND CARE
Do not open the battery. Danger of shortcircuiting.
Protect the battery against heat, e. g., against continuous
intense sunlight, re, water, and moisture. Danger of
explosion.
In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapours
may be emitted. Provide for fresh air and seek medical help
in case of complaints. The vapours can irritate the respiratory
system.
Use the battery only in conjunction with your STAYER
power tool. This measure alone protects the battery against
dangerous overload.
Use only original STAYER batteries with the voltage listed
on the nameplate of your power tool. When using other
batteries, e. g. imitations, reconditioned batteries or other
brands, there is danger of injury as well as property damage
through exploding batteries.
Do not continue to press the On/O switch after the machine
has been automatically switched o. The battery can be
damaged.
The battery is equipped with a temperature control which
allows charging only within a temperature range of between
0 °C and 45 °C. A long battery service life is achieved in this
manner.
Observe the notes for disposal.
Use only the battery chargers listed on the accessories
page. Only these battery chargers are matched to the lithium
ion battery of your power tool.
The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full
capacity of the battery, completely charge the battery in the
battery charger before using your power tool for the rst time.
The lithiumion battery can be charged at any time without
reducing its service life. Interrupting the charging procedure
does not damage the battery.
The lithiumion battery is protected against deep
discharging. When the battery is empty, the machine is
switched o by means of a protective circuit: The inserted
tool no longer rotates.
Temperature Dependent Overload Protection
When using as intended for, the power tool cannot be subject
to overload. When the load is too high or the allowable
battery temperature range of 0–50 °C is exceeded, the
speed is reduced. The power tool will not run at full speed
until reaching the allowable battery temperature. position.
Unintentional actuation of the On/O switch can lead to
injuries.
