3.2 Vibration load
■ Danger due to vibration
The actual magnitude of the vibration emissions during the use of the appliance may deviate from that stated by the manufacturer. Observe the following influencing factors before or during use:
Is the appliance being used as intended?
Is the material being cut or processed in the proper manner?
Is the appliance in a proper condition of use?
Is the cutting tool properly sharpened or is the correct cutting tool installed?
Are the handle grips and any optional vibration grips mounted, and are they firmly attached to the appliance?
■ Only operate the tool at the motor speed required for the respective work. Avoid using the maximum speed in order to reduce noise and vibrations.
■ The noise and vibrations of the tool may increase due to improper use and maintenance. This leads to health damage. In this case, immediately switch off the tool and have it repaired by an authorised service workshop.
■ The degree of stress due to vibration depends on the work to be performed or on the use of the tool. Estimate the stress and plan appropriate work breaks. This considerably reduces stress due to vibration over the entire working time.
■ Extensive use of the tool exposes the operator to vibrations, which can lead to circulatory issues ("white fingers"). To avoid this risk, wear gloves and keep your hands warm. If
any symptoms of "white fingers" occur, immediately consult a physician. These symptoms include: Numbness, loss of feeling, tingling, itching, pain, reduced muscular strength, changes in the colour or condition of the skin. Normally these conditions affect the fingers, hands or pulse. The risk increases at low temperatures.
■ Take long breaks during your working day so you can recover from the noise and the vibrations. Plan your work in such a way that the use of appliances that generate strong vibrations is spread over several days.
If you notice an unpleasant sensation or discolouration of the skin on your hands when using the tool, stop work immediately. Take sufficient work breaks. Without sufficient breaks, a hand/arm vibration syndrome can occur.
- Minimise your risk of being exposed to vibrations. Maintain the tool according to the instructions in the operating instructions.
■ If the tool is used frequently, contact your dealer to pur-
chase anti-vibration accessories (e.g. handles).
- Avoid working with the tool at temperatures below 10 °C.
Define how the vibration load can be limited in a work plan.
3.3 Safety information regarding the rechargeable battery

9 TRANSPORT
Before transporting, carry out the following measures:
- Switch off the tool.
- Remove the rechargeable battery from the appliance.
- Pack the battery properly.

NOTE
The nominal energy of the rechargeable battery is more than 100 Wh. Therefore, observe the following transport instructions.
The li-ion rechargeable battery contained in the appliance is subject to the hazardous goods law, but can be transported under simplified conditions:
The rechargeable battery can be transported on public roads by the private user without further conditions provided it is packaged for retail sale and the transport serves personal purposes.
■ Commercial users who carry out the transport in connection with their main activity (e.g. delivery from and to building sites, or demonstrations) can also take advantage of this simplification.
In both cases, it is essential to take the mandatory precautions mentioned above to prevent any leakage of the contents. In other cases, it is essential to comply with the regulations of the hazardous goods law. In the case of non-compliance, severe penalties can be imposed on the sender and possibly the transporter.
Additional notes on transport and shipment
■ Only transport or send the li-ion rechargeable battery in an undamaged condition.
For transporting the rechargeable battery, only use the original cardboard box or a suitable hazardous goods cardboard box (not required for rechargeable batteries with a nominal energy less than 100 Wh).
■ Tape off exposed rechargeable battery contacts to avoid a short circuit.
- Secure the rechargeable battery against shifting in the packaging to avoid damage to the rechargeable battery.
■ Ensure the correct marking and documentation of the shipment for transport or shipping (e.g. by parcel service or freight forwarding).
- Check in advance that transport with the selected service provider is possible and indicate the shipment.
We recommend involving a hazardous goods specialist in preparation of the shipment. Also heed any further national regulations.
