■
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts the eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
■
In case of damage and improper use of the battery, vapors may be emitted. In the
case of vapor emission, turn off your device and seek fresh air away from the fumes. Seek
medical help in case of complications or overexposure to vapors to avoid damage to the
respiratory system.
■
Do not expose a battery pack or appliance to fire or excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or temperature above 212°F may cause an explosion.
■
Do not dispose of the battery in a fire. The cell may explode. Check with local codes for
possible special disposal instructions.
■
Keep your battery pack clean to avoid a poor connection.
■
Do not keep batteries on the charger when not in use.
■
Keep the battery charger away from rain or damp environments. Water penetration
into the battery charger increases the chance of damage.
■
Before each use, check the battery charger, cable, and plug. If damage is detected,
do not use the battery charger.
■
Do not operate the battery charger on easily flammable surfaces (e. g., paper,
textiles, etc.) or surroundings. The heating of the battery charger during the charging
process can pose a fire hazard.
■
Use the battery only to power your power tool. Do not use your battery on other tools
or for any other purposes.
1.5 SERVICE
■
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.
■
Never service damaged battery packs. Service of battery packs should only be
performed by the manufacturer or authorized service providers.
■
Never open the battery charger yourself. Have repairs performed only by a qualified
technician and only using original spare parts. Damaged battery chargers, cables, and
plugs increase the risk of an electric shock.

1.6 POLE SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
■
Keep hands away from blades.
■
Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain. Do not remove cut material or hold
material to be cut when blades are moving. Make sure the switch is off when clearing jammed
material. The saw chain continues to move after the switch is turned off. A moment of inatten-
tion while operating the extended-reach pruner may result in serious personal injury.
■
Carry the extended-reach pruner by the handle with the saw chain stopped. When
transporting or storing the extended-reach pruner, always fit the saw chain device cover. Proper
handling of the extended-reach pruner will reduce possible personal injury from the saw chain.
■
Hold the extended-reach pruner by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the
saw chain may contact hidden wiring. A saw chain contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the extended-reach pruner "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
■
Do not use the extended-reach pruner in bad weather conditions, especially when
there is a risk of lightning. This decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
■
To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use near any electrical power lines. Contact
with or use near power lines may cause serious injury or electric shock resulting in death.
■
Always use two hands when operating the extended-reach pruner. Hold the extend-
ed-reach pruner with both hands to avoid loss of control.
■
Wear eye protection. Further protective equipment for hearing, hands, legs, and feet is
recommended. Adequate protective equipment will reduce personal injury from flying
debris or accidental contact with the saw chain.
■
Always use head protection when operating the extended-reach pruner overhead.
Falling debris can result in serious personal injury.
■
Do not operate a pole saw in a tree, on a ladder, from a rooftop, or any unstable support.
The operation of a pole saw in this manner could result in serious personal injury.
■
Always keep proper footing and operate the pole saw only when standing on a
fixed, secure, and level surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces may cause a loss of
balance or control of the pole pruner.
■
When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for spring back. When the
tension in the wood fiber is released, the spring-loaded limb may strike the operator
and/or throw the pole pruner out of control.
■
Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning, and changing the bar and chain.
An improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may either break or increase the chance
of kickback.
