General pruner saw safety warnings
1. Keep all parts of the body away from the
saw chain when the pruner saw is operating.
Before you start the pruner saw, make sure
the saw chain is not contacting anything. A

2. Always hold the pruner saw with one hand
on the rear handle and the other hand on the
auxiliary handle.
3. Hold the pruner saw by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the saw chain may con-
tact hidden wiring. S a w c h a i n s c o n t a c t i n g a " l i v e "

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).
