- after touching a foreign body in order
to check the machine for damage.
- for an immediate check if the ma-
chine begins to vibrate excessively.
Such preventive safety measures re-
duce the risk of starting the power tool
accidentaIly.
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 dan-
gerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for mis-
alignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condi-
tion that may affect the power tool's op-
eration. 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 Iikely 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.
5) CAREFUL HANDLING AND USE
OF BATTERY DEVICES
•
Charge the batteries only in chargers
that are recommended by the manu-
facturer. Risk of fire if a charger that
is suitable for a specific type of bat-
tery is used with other batteries.
•
In the power tools, use only the bat-
teries designed for the purpose. The
use of other batteries may result in
injuries and risk of fire.
•
Keep the unused battery away from
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws
and other small metal objects, which
could cause bridging of the contacts.
A short circuit between the battery
contacts may cause burns or fire.
•
If used incorrectly, liquid may leak
from the battery. Avoid contact with
this. In the event of accidental contact,
rinse off with water. If the liquid gets
into eyes, seek medical assistance.
Leaking battery fluid may cause skin
irritations or burns.
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.
7) CHAIN SAW SAFETY WARNINGS:
a) 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 white operating chain saws
may cause entanglement of your cloth-
ing or body with the saw chain.
b) 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.
c) Wear safety glasses and hear-
ing protection. Further protective
equipment for head, hands, legs
and feet is recommended. Adequate
protective clothing will reduce personal
