Chain saw safety warnings (EN 60745 part 2-13)
damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
■
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop-
erly maintained cutting tools with sharp cut-
ting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
■
Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these instruc-
tions, 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 hazard-
ous situation.
4.5 Battery tool use and care
■
Recharge only with the charger specified
by the manufacturer. A charger that is suit-
able for one type of battery pack may create
a risk of fire when used with another battery
pack.
■
Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and
fire.
■
When battery pack is not in use, keep it
away from other metal objects, lie paper-
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other
small metal objects that can make a con-
nection 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, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
4.6 Service
■
Have your power tool serviced by a quali-
fied repair person using only identical re-
placement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
5 CHAIN SAW SAFETY WARNINGS (EN
60745 PART 2-13)
■
Keep all parts of the body away from the
saw chain when the chain saw is operat-
ing. Before you start the chain saw, make
sure the saw chain is not contacting any-
thing. A moment of inattention while operat-
ing chain saws may cause entanglement of
your clothing or body with the saw chain.
■
Always hold the chain saw with your right
hand on the rear handle and your left
hand on the front handle. Holding the chain
saw with a reversed hand configuration in-
creases the risk of personal injury and should
never be done.
■
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the saw chain may
contact hidden wiring. Saw chains contact-
ing a "live" wire may make exposed metal
parts of the power tool "live" and could give
the operator an electric shock.
■
Wear safety glasses and hearing protec-
tion. Further protective equipment for
head, hands, legs and feet is recommen-
ded. Adequate protective clothing will reduce
personal injury by flying debris or accidental
contact with the saw chain.
■
Do not operate a chain saw in a tree. Oper-
ation of a chain saw while up in a tree may
result in personal injury.
■
Always keep proper footing and operate
the chain saw only when standing on
fixed, secure and level surface. Slippery or
unstable surfaces such as ladders may
cause a loss of balance or control of the
chain saw.
■
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 chain saw out of control.
■
Use extreme caution when cutting brush
and saplings. The slender material may
catch the saw chain and be whipped toward
you or pull you off balance.
■
Carry the chain saw by the front handle
with the chain saw switched off and away
from your body. When transporting or
storing the chain saw always fit the guide
bar cover. Proper handling of the chain saw
will reduce the likelihood of accidental con-
tact with the moving saw chain.
■
Follow instructions for lubricating, chain ten-
sioning and changing accessories. Improp-
erly 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 slip-
pery causing loss of control.
■
Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for
purposes not intended. For example: do
not use chain saw for cutting plastic, ma-
