chain saw is operating. Before you start the chain saw, make

sure the saw chain is not contacting anything. A moment of

inattention while operating chain saws may cause entanglement

of your clothing or body with the saw chain.

because the saw chain may contact hidden wiring or its own

cord. Saw chains contacting a ″live″ wire may make exposed

metal parts of the power tool ″live″ and could give the operator an

electric shock.

ceases. If medical attention is needed, the battery electrolyte for

Li-ion batteries is composed of a mixture of liquid organic

carbonates and lithium salts.

WARNING: Never attempt to open the battery pack for any

reason. If battery pack case is cracked or damaged, do not insert into

charger. Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack. Do not use a

battery pack or charger that has received a sharp blow, been

dropped, run over or damaged in any way (i.e., pierced with a nail, hit

with a hammer, stepped on). Damaged battery packs should be

returned to service center for recycling.

WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry battery so that

of Transportation Hazardous Material Regulations (HMR) actually

prohibit transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes (i.e.,

packed in suitcases and carry-on luggage) UNLESS they are properly

protected from short circuits. So when transporting individual batteries,

make sure that the battery terminals are protected and well insulated

from materials that could contact them and cause a short circuit.

NOTE: LI-ION batteries should not be put in checked baggage.
