Additional precautions for working with power tools
Warning! Additional safety instructions for use with
trimming devices.
The intended use is described in this instruction manual. Not allowed
use the tool for unforeseen purposes; for example, it is forbidden to use the tool
felling trees. Use of any accessory or accessory or
any operation that differs from the one recommended in this
instructions for use, poses a risk of injury.
◆ Keep the power tool only for insulated, designated for this purpose
surface, as the cutting tool can touch the concealed wiring. Contact with
wires under current can transfer voltage to open metal parts
electric tools, which can lead to electric shock to the operator.
◆
Wear well-fitting protective clothing, including a protective helmet with a visor / goggles, protective
headphones, non-slip safety shoes, protective overalls and durable leather
gloves.
◆ Always stay out of the trajectory of the falling branches.
◆ The safe distance between the cut branch and strangers, buildings and other objects
must be at least 2½ times the length of the branch. Any strangers, building or
an object within this distance is exposed to the risk of being hit by a falling branch.
◆ Plan out a safe departure from falling trees or branches in advance. Make sure that
The route of departure is free from obstacles that can impede the movement or make it
impossible. Remember that wet grass and freshly cut bark are slippery.
◆ Make sure that someone is nearby (but at a safe distance) just in case.
◆ Do not use the instrument while standing on a tree or on a ladder, or on any other
unstable surface.
◆ Always keep the right rack and balance.
◆
Hold the tool firmly in both handles when the motor is running.
◆ Do not allow the moving chain to contact any object on the tip of the guide
canvases.
◆ Start cutting only when the chain is moving at full speed.
◆ Do not attempt to insert the saw into the previous notch. Always start a new file.
◆ Watch for shifting branches or other forces that can close the nail and clamp
chain, or hit it.
◆ Do not attempt to saw the branches when the diameter of the branch exceeds the cutting length of
the tool.
◆ Always remove the battery from the tool and put the chain casing on the chain when storing or
transportation of the tool.
