power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil,
sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the
risk of electric shocks.
■ When operating a power tool outdoors,
use an extension cord suitable for outdoor
use. When using a cord suitable for
outdoor use, this will reduce the risk of
electric shocks.
■ If operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a residual
current device (RCD) protected supply.
Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
Personal safety
■ Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while
you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of
inattention while operating power tools may
result in serious personal injury.
■ Use personal protective equipment (PPE).
8
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment, such as a dust mask, non-skid
safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
■ Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the ‘off’ position before
connecting to a power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your finger
on the switch or energising power tools that
have the switch on invites accidents.
■ Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A wrench
or a key left attached to a rotating part of
the power tool may result in personal injury.
■ Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better
control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
■ Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing
or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and
gloves away from moving parts. Loose
clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
■ If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-related hazards.
■ If devices are provided for the connection
of dust extraction and collection facilities,
ensure these are connected and properly
used. Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-related hazards.

■ Do not let familiarity gained from
frequent use of tools allow you to become
complacent and ignore tool safety
principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
Power tool use and care
■ Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which it was designed.
■ Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
■ Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool, before making any
adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety
measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
■ Store idle power tools out of the reach
of children, and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these
instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
■ Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts and any other condition
that may affect the power tools operation.
If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
■ Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
10
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
■ Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits, etc., in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended,
could result in a hazardous situation.
■ 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.
Battery tool use and care
■ 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.

designated battery packs. Use of any
other battery packs may create a
risk of injury and fire.
■ When a battery pack is not in use, keep
it away from other metallic objects, like
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or
other small metallic objects, that can
make a connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery terminals
together may cause burns or a fire.
■ Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery; avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, immediately
11
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
■ Do not use a battery pack or tool that
is damaged or modified. Damaged
or modified batteries may exhibit
unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire,

Cordless chainsaw safety warnings
■ Keep all parts of the body away from the
saw chain when the chainsaw is operating.
Before you start the chainsaw, make sure
the chainsaw is not contacting anything.
A moment of inattention while operating
chainsaws may cause entanglement of your
clothing or body with the saw chain.
■ Always hold the chainsaw with your right
hand on the rear handle and your left hand
on the front handle. Holding the chainsaw
with a reversed hand configuration
increases the risk of personal injury and
should never be done.
■ Wear safety glasses for protection. Further
protective equipment for hearing, head,
hands, legs and feet is recommended.
Adequate protective clothing will reduce
personal injury by flying debris or accidental
contact with the chainsaw.
■ Do not operate a chainsaw in a tree, on
a ladder, from a rooftop, or any unstable
support. Operation of a chainsaw in this
manner could result in serious
personal injury.
■ Always keep proper footing and operate
the chainsaw only when standing on a
fixed, secure and level surface. Slippery
or unstable surfaces, may cause a loss of
balance or control of the Chainsaw.
17
■ When cutting a limb that is under tension
be alert for spring back. When the tension
in the wood fibres is released, the spring
loaded limb may strike the operator and/or
throw the chainsaw out of control.
■ Use extreme caution when cutting brush
and saplings. The slender material may
catch the chainsaw and be whipped toward
you or pull you off balance.
■ Carry the chainsaw by the front handle with
the chainsaw switched off and away from
your body. When transporting or storing
the chainsaw always fit the guide bar cover.
Proper handling of the chainsaw will reduce
the likelihood of accidental contact with the
moving chainsaw.
■ Follow instructions for lubricating, chain
tensioning and changing. Improperly
tensioned or lubricated chain may either
break or increase the chance for kickback.
■ Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil
and grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery
causing loss of control.
■ Cut wood only. Do not use chainsaw for
purposes not intended. For example,
do not use chainsaw for cutting metal,
plastic masonry or non-wood building
materials. Use of the chainsaw for
operations different than intended,
could result in a hazardous situation.
■ Hold the chainsaw by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the saw chain
may contact hidden wiring. Saw chains
contacting a live wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool live and could
give the operator an electric shock.
18
■ This chainsaw is not intended for tree felling.
Use of the chainsaw for operations different
than intended could result in serious injury
to the operator or bystanders.
■ Follow all instructions when clearing
jammed material, storing or servicing the
chainsaw. Make sure the switch is off and
the battery pack is removed. Unexpected
actuation of the chainsaw while clearing
jammed material or servicing, may result in
serious personal injury.
Causes and Operator Prevention of
Kickback:
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of
the guide bar touches an object, or when the
wood closes in and pinches the chainsaw in
the cut.
In some cases, tip contact may cause a
sudden reverse reaction, kicking the guide
bar up and back towards the operator.
Pinching the chainsaw along the top of the
guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly
back towards the operator.
Either of these reactions may cause you to
lose control of the saw which could result in
serious personal injury. Do not rely exclusively
upon the safety devices built into your saw.
As a chainsaw user, you should take several
steps to keep your cutting jobs free from
accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions
and can be avoided by taking proper
precautions as given below:
19
■ Do not overreach and do not cut above
shoulder height. This helps prevent
unintended tip contact and enables
better control of the chainsaw in
unexpected situations.
■ Only use replacement bars and chains
specified by the manufacturer. Incorrect
replacement bars and chains may cause
chain breakage and/or kickback.
■ Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and
maintenance instructions for the chainsaw.
Decreasing the depth gauge height can
lead to increased kickback.
■ Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and
fingers encircling the chainsaw handles,
with both hands on the saw. Then position
your body and arm to allow you to resist
kickback forces. Kickback forces can
be controlled by the operator, if proper
precautions are taken. Do not let go of the
chainsaw.
WARNING!
Residual risks
Even when the tool is used as prescribed it
is not possible to eliminate all residual risk
factors. The following hazards may arise in
connection with the tool’s construction
and design:
■ Damage to lungs if an effective dust mask
is not worn.
■ Damage to hearing if effective hearing
protection is not worn.
■ Health defects resulting from vibration
emission if the appliance is being used over
longer periods of time or not adequately
managed and properly maintained.
