g) Use electric tools, insertion tools, etc. according
to these instructions. Take into account the work-
ing conditions and the work to be performed. Use
of the power tool for operations different from those in-
tended 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 an-
other. 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 acciden-
tally 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 ex-
hibit unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explo-
sion or risk of injury.
f) Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or ex-
cessive 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 outside the temperature
range specified in the instructions. Charging im-
properly 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 re-
pair 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 manu-
facturer or authorized service providers.
Safety instructions for chainsaws
a) Keep all body parts away from the saw chain
when the saw is running. Before starting the prun-
ing saw, ensure that the saw chain is not touching
anything. When working with a chainsaw, a moment
of carelessness can result in clothing or body parts
being caught by the saw chain.

b) Always hold the chainsaw with your right hand on
the rear handle and your left hand on the front
handle. Holding the chainsaw using the opposite grip
increases the risk of injuries and shall be avoided at
all times.
c) Only hold the chainsaw by the insulated gripping
surfaces, as the saw chain could hit hidden power
lines or its own mains cable. Contact between the
saw chain and a live power line can also electrify met-
al device parts and lead to an electric shock.
d) Wear eye protection. Further protective equipment
for hearing, head, hands, legs and feet is recom-
mended. Suitable protective clothing reduces the risk
of injury from flying chips and accidental contact with
the saw chain.
e) Do not work with the chainsaw in a tree, on a lad-
der, or from a roof or an unstable standing sur-
face. There is a serious risk of injury if operated in
such a manner.
f) Always make sure you have a firm footing and on-
ly use the chainsaw when standing on firm, safe
and level ground. Slippery ground or unstable stand-
ing surfaces can cause loss of balance or loss of con-
trol of the chainsaw.
g) When cutting a branch that is under tension, ex-
pect it to spring back. If the tension in the wood fi-
bres is released, the tensioned branch can hit the op-
erator and/or wrest the chainsaw from control.
h) Be especially careful when cutting undergrowth
and young trees. The thin material can get caught in
the saw chain and hit you or throw you off balance.
i)
Carry the chainsaw by the front handle when
switched off, with the saw chain facing away from
your body. Always put the protective cover on
when transporting or storing the chainsaw. Careful
handling of the chainsaw reduces the likelihood of ac-
cidental contact with the running saw chain.
j)
Follow the instructions for lubrication, chain ten-
sioning and replacing the guide bar and chain. An
improperly tensioned or lubricated chain can break or
increase the risk of kick-back.
k) Only saw wood. Do not use the chainsaw for work
for which it is not intended. Example: Do not use
the electric chainsaw to saw metal, plastic, brick-
work or building materials other than wood. Using
the chainsaw for unintended work can cause danger-
ous situations.
Causes and avoidance of kickback
Kickback can arise if the tip of the guide rail touches an
object or if the wood bends and the saw chain jams in the
cut.
Touching with the rail tip can sometimes lead to an unex-
pected backward reaction, whereby the guide rail whips
up and in the direction of the user.
If the saw chain jams on the top edge of the guide rail, the
rail can jerk back in the direction of the user suddenly.
Each of these reactions can lead to you losing control of
the saw and possibly suffering a serious injury. Never rely
solely on the safety equipment integrated in the chainsaw.
As the chainsaw user, you should implement various
measures to work without a risk of accidents and injuries.
