English Protect the charger from rain and dampness. Keep charger dry. Use and store charger only indoors in dry rooms. Operate charger at temperatures between 41 °F (5 °C) and 104 °F (40 °C). Allow the charger to cool down normally - do not cover it. Never bridge the contacts of the charger with metallic objects (e.g. nails, coins, jewelry) - short circuit. The charger may be damaged by a short circuit. In the event of smoke or fire in the charger, disconnect it from outlet immediately. Warning! To reduce the risk of electric shock or short circuit, do not insert any objects into the charger's cooling slots. Warning! The charger heats up during the charging process. Do not operate on an easily combustible surface (e.g. paper, texiles) or in an easily combustible environment - risk of fire. Warning! Do not operate in a hazardous location, i.e. in a location where there are combustible liquids (fumes), vapors or dusts. Chargers can produce sparks, which may ignite the dust or vapors - risk of explosion. Check the charger's power supply cord and plug regularly for damage. If the power supply cord or plug is damaged, immediately disconnect the plug from the wall outlet to avoid the risk of electric shock. Never jerk the power supply cord to disconnect it from the wall outlet. To unplug, grasp the plug, not the cord. Have a damaged power supply cord repaired by an experienced electrician. Do not use the power supply cord for any other purpose, e.g. for carrying or hanging up the charger. Never use power supply cords that do not comply with regulations. Make sure the power supply cord is located and/or marked so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, come in contact with sharp edges or moving parts or otherwise be subjected to damage or stress. An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. If an extension cord must be used, plug the charger into a properly wired 16 gauge (AWG 16) or heavier gauge extension cord with blades that are the same number, size and shapes as the blades on the charger. To reduce the risk of electric shock: - Always connect the unit to a properly installed wall outlet. - Make sure the insulation of the power supply cord and plug is in good condition. Unplug the power supply cord from the outlet when charger is not in use. Never store the battery in the charger. THE USE OF THE POWER TOOL Transporting the Power Tool Warning! To reduce the risk of injury from saw chain contact, never carry or transport your power tool with the saw chain moving. Always fully release the trigger switch and make sure the chain has stopped moving before putting the saw down or carrying it. Always engage the chain brake when taking more than a few steps. Warning! Always switch off the motor, and fit the chain guard (scabbard) over the chain and guide bar, move front hand guard to ƒ and remove the battery - even when you carry the unit for short distances. When transporting it in a vehicle, properly secure it to prevent turnover, chain oil spillage and damage. 8 MSA 160 C
