10 Before Starting Work
￭ Use of parts that are not authorized or approved by STIHL
may cause serious or fatal injury or property damage.
– STIHL recommends that only identical STIHL
replacement parts be used for repair or
maintenance.
￭ To reduce the risk of short circuit and fire:
– Keep the battery guides free of foreign matter. Clean
as necessary with a dry cloth or soft, dry brush.
￭ Improper storage can result in unauthorized use, damage
to the pole pruner and battery, and an increased risk of
fire, electric shock and other personal injury or property
damage.
– Remove the battery from the pole pruner before
storing.
– Never store the pole pruner or charger with the
battery inserted.
– Store the pole pruner and battery indoors in a dry,
secure place that cannot be accessed by children or
other unauthorized users.
– Never store the battery in the pole pruner, in the
charger, in a metal container or in a container with
metal objects (e.g., paper clips, nails, coins, keys).
NOTICE
Always release tension on the chain after finishing work. The
chain contracts as it cools down. If it is not slackened, it can
damage the drive shaft and bearings. Properly re-tension
the chain before using the pole pruner again.

11 Charging the Battery
11.1 Setting up the Charger
WARNING
Read and follow the safety precautions on the battery and
charger and all warnings and instructions that accompany
those products. To reduce the risk of short circuit, which
could lead to electric shock, fire and explosion, make sure
the charger and its components are dry and not damaged;
operate the charger indoors at an appropriate ambient
temperature.
WARNING
A typical household electric circuit is between 15 and 20
amps. A single STIHL AL 500 charger draws approximately
4.8 amps. A single AL 300 charger draws approximately
4.4 amps. To reduce the risk of fire from overloading an
electrical circuit:
► Ensure the electrical system is rated to withstand the
expected electrical draw before charging your battery.
► Charge multiple batteries one at a time or on separate
circuits, unless you know your circuit can handle the total
expected draw from multiple chargers.
WARNING
Since the charger heats up during the charging process, do
not operate the charger on a combustible surface or in a
location where combustible gases, liquids, vapors, dusts or
other materials and substances are present.
