•

Do not clean the battery or the battery charger with

water. Strong detergent can cause damage to the

plastic.

•

cycle of the product and increases the risk of

accidents.

•

Special training is necessary for all servicing and

repair work, especially for the safety devices on the

product. If not all checks in this operator's manual

are approved after you have done maintenance, turn

to your servicing dealer. We guarantee that there are

professional repairs and servicing available for your

product.

Safety instructions for the cutting

equipment

WARNING:

Read the warning instructions

that follow before you use the product.

•

Use the correct combination of guide bar and saw

chain to decrease the risk of kickback! Only use the

bar/saw chain combinations we recommend and use

the correct filing equipment. See

Technical data on

page 33

for instructions.

•

Use protective gloves when you handle the saw

chain. A saw chain that does not move can also

cause injuries to a person that touches the saw

chain.

•

Keep the cutting teeth correctly sharpened! Follow

our instructions and use the recommended file

gauge. A damaged saw chain or a saw chain that

has been incorrectly sharpened increases the risk of

accidents.

•

Keep the correct depth gauge setting! Follow our

instructions and use the recommended depth gauge

clearance. Too large a clearance increases the risk

of kickback.

•

Make sure that the saw chain has the correct

tension! If the saw chain is not tight against the guide

bar, the risk for it to come loose increases. This

leads to increased wear on the guide bar, saw chain

and drive sprocket.

•

Do maintenance on the cutting equipment regularly

and keep it correctly lubricated. The risk of wear on

the guide bar, saw chain and drive sprocket

increases if the saw chain is not correctly lubricated.
