• Use only batteries specifically designed for
your power tool. The use of other batteries may
cause injuries and fire risks.
• Keep all unused batteries at a distance from
paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other
small metal objects as contact with the same
can cause short circuits. Short circuits between
battery contacts can lead to explosion or fires.
• Never use the battery charger in environments in
the presence of vapours, flammable substances
or on easily flammable surfaces such as paper,
fabric, etc. The battery charger heats up during
recharging and may cause a fire.
• When transporting batteries, make sure the
contacts never come into contact with each
other and never use metal containers to
transport them.
2.5 PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT
Safeguarding the environment must be a relevant
and priority aspect of machine use, of benefit to
the community and the environment we live in.
• Avoid being a disturbance to the neighbourhood.
Use this machine at reasonable times of the day
only (not early morning or late evening when the
noise could cause disturbance).
• A certain amount of chain lubricating oil is
released into the environment when the
machine is running, so only use biodegradable
oils made specifically for this use. Use of a
mineral oil or motor oil causes serious damage
to the environment.
• Comply with local regulations for the disposal of
packaging, deteriorated parts or any elements
with a strong environmental impact; this waste
must not be disposed of as normal waste, it
must be separated and taken to specified waste
disposal centres where the material will be
recycled.
• Comply with local regulations for the disposal of
waste materials
• When the machine is withdrawn from service,
do not dispose of it in the environment, but take
it to a waste disposal facility in accordance with
the local regulations in force.
Do not throw electrical equipment away
with domestic waste. According to the
European
electrical and electronic equipment waste
and its implementation, according to UK
Regulation "The waste electrical and electronic
equipment regulations 2013 (as amended)" and
according to national regulations, old electrical
equipment must be collected separately, for eco-
compatible recycling. If electrical equipment is
disposed of in landfills or in the ground, hazardous
substances can leak into the groundwater and
contaminate the food chain, damaging your health
Directive 2012/19/EU
and well-being. For further information on the
disposal of this product, contact your dealer or a
domestic waste collection service.
At the end of their working life, dispose of
batteries paying due attention to the
environment. Batteries contain material
classified as hazardous for you and the
environment. They must be removed and
disposed of separately at a facility that accepts
lithium-ion batteries.
Separate waste collection of the products
and packaging used allows the materials
to be recycled and reused. Reuse of
recycled
environmental pollution and reduces the
demand for raw materials.
3. GETTING TO KNOW THE MACHINE

two hands, using the front and rear hand grips,
and can use the main controls, always remaining
at a safe distance from the cutting means.
3.1.1 Intended use
This machine was designed
and manufactured for:
– delimbing trees with dimensions suitable
for the length of the guide bar or wooden
objects with the same characteristics;
– used by one operator.
3.1.2 Improper use
