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.
PRUNER SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING!
1. Do not cut branches beyond the specified
diameter, and do not cut hard items such as
metals, stone or any other non-plant materials. If
the blades are worn or damaged, please replace
blades.
2. To keep the pruner, battery and charger clean, use
a cloth or a soft brush (do not use any abrasive or
solvent-based cleaning agent).
3. Do not use the pruner in rain; water inside the tool
may damage it.
4. Do not use the pruner if it can't operate or shut
down properly.
5. To reduce the risk of harm, turn off power before
any adjustments to the pruner or changing acces-
sories.
6. Please ensure the blades are closed when not in
use. When storing the pruner it must be kept out
of the reach of CHILDREN.
7. Pruner usage shall comply with instructions sta-
ted in this manual, including methods of use and
working environment. Operation out of the tool's
range may damage the tool or reduce service life.
NOISE EMISSION/VIBRATION
■ A-weighted sound pressure level LpA= 73.2
dB(A), uncertainty K=3 dB(A). A-weighted sound
power level LwA= 84.2 dB(A), uncertainty K=3
dB(A). Recommendation for the operator to wear
hearing protection.
■ Vibration total value =1.782 m/s², uncertainty
K=1.5 m/s². The declared vibration total value has
been measured in accordance with a standard
test method and may be used for comparing one
tool with another. The declared vibration total va-
lue may also be used in a preliminary assessment
of exposure.
WARNING!
The vibration emission during actual use of the power
tool can differ from the declared total value depen-
ding on the ways in which the tool is used.
It's necessary to identify safety measures to protect
the operator that are based on an estimation of
exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking into
account all parts of the operating cycle, such as the
times when the tool is switched off and when it is
running idle, in addition to the trigger time).
