warnings

1. This chain saw is designed especially for tree

care and surgery. The chain saw is intended

to be used by properly trained persons only.

Observe all instructions, procedures and rec-

ommendations from the relevant professional

organization. Otherwise fatal accidents may

occur. It is recommend that always using a

rising platform (cherry picker, lift) for sawing

in trees. Rappelling techniques are extremely

dangerous and require special training. The

operators must be trained to become familiar

with safety equipment usage and climbing

techniques. Always use the appropriate belts,

ropes and carabiners when working in trees.

Always use restraining equipment for both the

operator and the saw.

2. Perform cleaning and maintenance before

storage in accordance with the instruction

manual.

3 . Ensure safe positioning of the chain saw

during car transportation to avoid fuel or chain

oil leakage, damage to the tool and personal

injury.

4 . Regularly check the functionality of chain

brake.

6. National regulation may restrict the use of the

chain saw.

7 . If the equipment gets heavy impact or fall,

check the condition before continuing work.

Check the controls and safety devices for mal-

function. If there is any damage or doubt, ask

our authorized service center for the inspec-

tion and repair.

8. Always activate the chain brake before starting

the chain saw.

Tips for maintaining maximum

battery life

1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely

discharged. Always stop tool operation and

charge the battery cartridge when you notice

less tool power.

2. Never recharge a fully charged battery car-

tridge. Overcharging shortens the battery

service life.

3 . Charge the battery cartridge with room tem-

perature at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let

a hot battery cartridge cool down before

charging it.

4 . When not using the battery cartridge, remove

it from the tool or the charger.

5. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use

it for a long period (more than six months).
