General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING!
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (cord power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
•Work area safety
−Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
−Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids,
gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
−Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
•Electrical safety
−Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs
with earthed (ground-power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
−Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
−Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
−Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
−When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
−If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RC-protected
supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.
•Personal safety
−A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.
−Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as 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 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.
•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.
−Treat electric tools carefully. Check whether the moving parts work perfectly and do not drag, whether
not broken or damaged to such an extent that functioning of electric tools could be affected. Have any
damaged parts repaired before using the machine. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
−Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. 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.
•Using and treatment of cordless tools.
−Charge the batteries only in chargers recommended by the manufacturer. Risk of fire for a charger
suitable only for a certain type of batteries or, as appropriate, accumulators, if used for other
accumulators.
−Use only such accumulators in this electric appliance that have been designed for this appliance. Use of
other accumulators may lead to injuries and risk of fire.
−Do not leave an accumulator not being used near office clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small
metal items that could cause contact bridging. Short circuit between accumulator contacts may result in
burns or fire.
−Liquid may leak from an accumulator if used improperly. Prevent contact with such liquid. Rinse an
affected body part with water in case of accidental contact. If liquid gets to your eye, seek medical
advice. Liquid leaking from a battery may cause skin irritation or burns.
•Service
−Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Safety Instructions for the Pole Chainsaw
•Keep all parts of your body in safe distance from the saw when running. Before starting the saw,
make sure the saw chain does not touch anything.
A moment of inattention when working with the chainsaw is able to cause the saw chain to catch your
clothes or parts of your body.
•Wear protective glasses and ear protectors. Further, wearing head, hand and leg protection
equipment is recommended.
Suitable protective clothing minimises the risk of injury by thrown-away wood chips and possible contact with
the saw chain.
•Do not work on trees with the chainsaw.
There is a risk of injury when working on a tree.
•Provide safe posture at all times and use the chainsaw only when standing on a solid, safe and level
surface.
A slippery or unstable surface, such as ladder, may lead to loss of balance or loss of control over the
chainsaw.
•When cutting a tense branch, be sure to know that the branch will bounce back.
If tension in the wood fibres gets released, the tense branch may hit the operator and/or cause a loss of
control over the chainsaw.
•Be especially careful when cutting scrubs and saplings.
Thin material may get caught in the chainsaw and hit you or you may lose your balance.
•Carry the chainsaw by the front handle in a switched-off condition and the saw chain must be
deflected from your body. Fit a protection cover on the chainsaw whenever it is transported or
stored.
Careful chainsaw treatment reduces the likelihood of an accidental contact with the running saw chain.
