controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from
the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check
for misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tool's operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the power tool
for operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) 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.
b) Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.
c) 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 terminals together
may cause burns or a fire.
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation
or burns.
e) Do not use a battery pack or tool that is
damaged or modified. Damaged or modified
batteries may exhibit unpredictable behaviour
resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire
or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or
temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.
g) Follow all charging instructions and
do not charge the battery pack or tool
20V 5'' Chain Saw
outside the temperature range specified
in the instructions. Charging improperly or at
temperatures outside the specified range may
damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
6) Service
a) 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.
b) Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
1) General pruning saw safety warnings:
a) Keep all parts of the body away from the saw
chain when the pruning saw is operating.
Before you start the pruning saw, make sure the
saw chain is not contacting anything. A moment
of inattention while operating pruning saws may
cause entanglement of your clothing or body with
the saw chain.
b) Always hold the pruning saw with your right
hand on the rear handle and your left hand on
the front handle. Holding the pruning saw with a
reversed hand configuration increases the risk of
personal injury and should never be done.
c) Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces 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.
d) Wear safety glasses protection. Further
protective equipment for hearing, head,
hands, legs and feet is recommended. Adequate
protective clothing will reduce personal injury by
flying debris or accidental contact with the saw
chain.
e) Do not operate a pruning saw in a tree, on a
ladder, from a rooftop, or any unstable support.
Operation of a pruning saw in this manner could
result in serious personal injury.
f) Always keep proper footing and operate the
pruning saw only when standing on fixed,
secure and level surface. Slippery or unstable
surfaces may cause a loss of balance or control of
the pruning saw.
g) When cutting a limb that is under tension , be
alert for spring back. When the tension in the
wood fibres is released , the spring loaded limb may
strike the operator and/or throw the pruning saw out
of control.
h) 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.
i) Carry the pruning saw by the front handle with
the pruning saw switched off and away from
your body. When transporting or storing the
pruning saw , always fit the guide bar cover.
Proper handling of the pruning saw will reduce the
likelihood of accidental contact with the moving saw
