CAUTION! Even discharged battery packs
contain some energy. Before disposing, use
electrical tape to cover the terminals to prevent
the battery pack from shorting, which could cause
a fi re or explosion.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of injury or
explosion, never burn or incinerate a battery
pack even if it is damaged, dead, or completely
discharged. When burned, toxic fumes and
materials are emitted into the surrounding
atmosphere.
1. Batteries vary according to device. Consult
your manual for specifi c information.
2. Install only new batteries of the same type in
your product (where applicable).
3. Failure to insert batteries in the correct
polarity, as indicated in the battery
compartment or manual, may shorten the life
of the batteries or cause batteries to leak.
4. Do not mix old and new batteries.
5. Do not mix Alkaline, Standard (Carbon-Zinc),
or Rechargeable (Nickel Cadmium, Nickel
Metal Hydride, or Lithium-Ion) batteries.
6. Do not dispose of batteries in fi re.
7. Batteries should be recycled or disposed of
as per state, provincial and local guidelines.
When shipping or disposing of batteries and
cordless tools, always ensure that they are
packed individually in plastic bags to prevent
short circuits and fi res.

Chain saw safety warnings
1) 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.

saw chain guard. Proper handling of the pole
chain saw will reduce possible personal injury
from the saw chain.
3) Hold the pole chain saw by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the saw chain may
contact hidden wiring. A saw chain contacting
a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts
of the pole chain saw "live" and could give the
operator an electric shock.
4) Do not use the pole chain saw in bad weather
conditions, especially when there is a risk
of lightning. This decreases the risk of being
struck by lightning.
5) To reduce the risk of electrocution, never use
near any electrical power lines. Contact with
or use near power lines may cause serious
injury or electric shock resulting in death.
6) Always use two hands when operating the
pole chain saw. Hold the pole chain saw with
both hands to avoid loss of control.
7) Always use head protection when operating
the pole chain saw overhead. Falling debris
can result in serious personal injury.
