IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS
IMPORTANT
READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USE. KEEP FOR FUTURE
REFERENCE.
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 (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Work area safety
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite
accidents.
2. 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.
3. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power
tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
Electrical safety
1. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug
in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)
power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce
risk of electric shock.

9
2. 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.
3. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water
entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in
order to avoid a hazard.
Personal safety
1. 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.
2. 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.

10
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected
situations.
6. 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.
7. 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
1. 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.
2. 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.
3. 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.

11
4. 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.
5. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that
may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
6. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting
tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
7. 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.
Service
1. Have your power tools serviced by a qualified repair person
using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that
safety of the power tool is maintained.
Pruner safety warnings
1. Interrupt your work when you feel tired or exhausted. Make
regular breaks to regenerate. A moment of inattention while
operating the product may result in serious personal injury.
2. Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain. Do not
remove cut material or hold material to be cut when saw chain
is moving. Make sure the switch is off when clearing jammed
material. A moment of inattention while operating the product
may result in serious personal injury.

12
3. Hold the product by insulated gripping surfaces only, 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 product “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
4. Keep cable away from cutting area. During operation the cable
may be hidden in shrubs and can be accidentally cut by the
blade.
5. Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain when
the product is operating. Before you start the product, make
sure the saw chain is not contacting anything. A moment of
inattention while operating products may cause entanglement of
your clothing or body with the saw chain.
6. Always hold the product with both hands on the handle and soft
grip. Holding the product with only one hand or on parts not
intended for that increases the risk of personal injury and should
never be done.
7. Wear safety glasses and hearing protection. Further protective
equipment for head, hands, legs and feet is recommended.
Adequate protective clothing will reduce personal injury by flying
debris or accidental contact with the saw chain.
8. Do not operate a product in a tree. Operation of a product while
up in a tree may result in personal injury.
9. Always keep proper footing and operate the product 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 product.
10.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 product
out of control.
11.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.

13
12.Carry the product by the soft grip with the product switched
off and away from your body. When transporting or storing the
product always fit the guide bar cover. Proper handling of the
product will reduce the likelihood of accidental contact with the
moving saw chain.
13.Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning and
changing accessories. Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain
may either break or increase the chance for kickback.
14.Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. Greasy,
oily handles are slippery causing loss of control.
15.Cut wood only. Do not use product for purposes not intended.
For example: do not use product for cutting plastic, masonry or
non-wood building materials. Use of the product for operations
different than intended could result in a hazardous situation.
16.Pay attention to national and local regulations. National and
local regulations may restrict the use of this product.
17.Only use replacement guide bars and saw chains specified
by the manufacturer or equivalent replacements. Using non-
approved cutting attachments can result in personal injuries and
damage to property.
18.Before using the product and after any impact or dropping,
check for signs of wear or damage and repair as necessary.
19.Never remove or modify any guard or safety component. Ensure
that guards and other safety components necessary for machine
operation are in position, in good working condition and properly
maintained to avoid injuries.
20.Training of all operation is necessary for first-time and
inexperienced operator.
21.Remove branches in section.
22.Use the harness provided.

14
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 saw chain in
the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden reverse reaction,
kicking the guide bar up and back towards the operator.
Pinching the saw chain 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 product 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:
1. Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers encircling the
product handles, with both hands on the saw and 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 product.
2. Do not overreach. This helps prevent unintended tip contact and
enables better control of the product in unexpected situations.
3. Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the
manufacturer. Incorrect replacement bars and chains may cause
chain breakage and/or kickback.
4. Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance
instructions for the saw chain. Decreasing the depth gauge
height can lead to increased kickback.

15
Vibration and noise reduction
To reduce the impact of noise and vibration emission, limit the time
of operation, use low-vibration and low- noise operating modes as
well as wear personal protective equipment.
Take the following points into account to minimize the vibration and
noise exposure risks:
1. Only use the product as intended by its design and these
instructions.
2. Ensure that the product is in good condition and well
maintained.
3. Use correct application tools for the product and ensure they in
good condition.
4. Keep tight grip on the handles/grip surface.
5. Maintain this product in accordance with these instructions and
keep it well lubricated (where appropriate).
6. Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use
across a longer period of time.
