c) Restrictions of use
• Do not use the machine if you are unable to
hold it with both hands or keep steady on
your legs while working.
• Never use the machine with damaged,
missing or incorrectly positioned guards.
• Don't use the machine if the attachments/
tools are not installed in their seats.
• Never disengage,
or tamper with the safety systems/micro
switches installed.
• Do not use the power tool if the switch
does not turn it on and off. Any power tool
that cannot be controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
• Do not strain the machine too much and
do not use a small machine for heavy-duty
work; if you use the right machine, you will
reduce the risk of hazards and improve the
quality of your work.

4) Maintenance, storage
Ensure regular maintenance and correct
storage to maintain machine safety
and high performance levels.
a) Maintenance
• Never use the machine with worn or
damaged parts. Faulty or worn-out parts
must always be replaced and never repaired.
• Be careful during adjustment of the machine
to prevent entrapment of the fingers between
moving parts of the cutting means and fixed
parts of the machine.
The noise and vibration levels shown
in these instructions are the maximum
levels when using the machine. The use of an
unbalanced cutting element, the excessive speed
of movement, or the absence of maintenance
have a significant influence on noise emissions
and vibrations. Consequently, it is necessary
to take preventive steps to eliminate possible
damage due to high levels of noise and stress
from vibration; maintain the machine well, wear
ear protection devices, and take breaks whilst
working.
b) Storage
• To reduce fire risks, do not leave containers
with debris inside a room.
2.3 BATTERY / BATTERY CHARGER
IMPORTANT The following safety instructions
are in addition to the safety requirements provided
in the specific battery and battery charger manual
delivered with this machine.
deactivate, remove
• Only use battery chargers recommended
by the manufacturer to recharge batteries.
An inadequate battery charger may cause
electric shock, overheating or corrosive
liquid to leak from the battery.
• Use only batteries specifically designed for
your power tool. The use of other batteries
may cause injuries and fire risks.
• Make sure that the machine is switched
off before inserting the battery. Inserting a
battery in a machine which is switched on
can cause a fire.
• 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.
• Do not use the battery charger in places
where there are inflammable vapours,
substances
surfaces like paper, fabric, etc. During
recharge, the battery charger becomes
heated and may cause fire.
• When transporting batteries, make sure the
contacts never come into contact with each
other and never use metal containers to
transport them.
2.4 ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Protecting the environment must be a significant
and top priority for machine use, to the benefit of
civil co-habitation and of the environment that we
live in.
Avoid being an element of disturbance to the
surrounding area. Use this machine at reasonable
times of the day only (not early morning or late
evening when the noise could cause disturbance).
Scrupulously 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 with regular waste,
but must be separated and taken to collection
centres, which will recycle the materials.
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 Directive 2012/19/EU on electrical and
electronic equipment waste and its implementation
EN - 5
or on easily inflammable
