General safety instructions for electric tools
The term “electric tool” used in the safety instructions refers to electric tools operated from the mains power supply (with a power cable) and to battery operated electric tools (without a power cable).
1. Workplace safety
a) Keep your work area clean and well illuminated. Untidy or un-lit work areas can result in accidents.
b) Do not operate the electric tool in an environment where there is a risk of explosions and where there are infl ammable liquids, gases or dust. Electric tools produce sparks which could set the dust or vapours alight.
c) Keep the electric tool out of the reach of children and other persons. If there is a distraction, you may lose control of the appliance.
2. Electrical safety
a) The connector plug from this electric tool must fi t into the socket. The plug should never be altered in any way. Never use adapter plugs together with earthed electric tools. Un-altered plugs and correct sockets reduce the risk of an electric shock.
b) Avoid bodily contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, heating, ovens and fridges. The risk of electric shock is increased if your body is earthed.
c) Keep the tool out of the rain and away from moisture. The ingress of water into an electric tool increases the risk of an electric
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
shock.
d) Do not use the cable to carry the electric tool, to hang it up or to pull it out of the socket. Keep the cable away from heat, oil, sharp edges and moving parts of the appliance. Damaged or entangled cables increase the risk of an electric shock.
e) If you are working outdoors with an electric tool, only use extension cables which are designed specifically for this purpose. Using specially designed outdoor extension cables, the risk of electric shock is reduced.
f) If operation of the electric tool in a damp environment can not be avoided, use a earth-leakage circuit-breaker. The earth-leakage circuit-breaker reduces the risk of an electric shock.
3. Safety of persons
a) Be careful, watch what you are doing and use an electric tool sensibly. Do not use the tool if you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention when using the electric tool can result in serious injuries.
b) Wear personal protection equipment and always wear safety goggles. Wearing personal protection (such as dust masks, non-slip safety shoes, safety helmet or ear protection, depending upon the type and use of the electric tool) reduces the risk of injury.
c) Make sure that the appliance cannot start up accidentally. Ensure that the electric tool is switched off before you connect it to the power supply and/or insert the battery, or pick up or carry the tool. If your finger is on the switch whilst carrying the electric tool or if you connect the appliance to the mains when it is switched on, this can lead to accidents.
d) Remove keys and wrenches before switching on the electric tool. A tool or key which comes into contact with rotating parts of the appliance can lead to injuries.
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
e) Avoid abnormal working postures. Make sure you stand squarely and keep your balance at all times. In this way, you can control the electric tool better in unexpected circumstances.
f) Wear suitable work clothes. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep hair, clothes and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothing, jewellery or long hair can get trapped in moving parts.
g) If vacuuming devices and draining devices can be fitted, make sure that these are correctly attached and correctly used. The use of a dust extraction system can reduce the danger posed by dust.
- Usage and treatment of the electric tool
a) Do not overload the appliance. Use the correct tool for your work. You will be able to work better and more safely within the given performance boundaries.
b) Do not use an electric tool with a defective switch. An electric tool that cannot be switched on or off is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Pull the plug out of the socket and/or remove the battery before making any adjustments to the appliance, changing accessories or putting the appliance down. This safety measure prevents starting the electric tool unintentionally.
d) Keep unused electric tools out of the reach of children. Do not allow people who are not familiar with the appliance or who have not read these instructions to use the appliance. Electric tools are dangerous if they are used by inexperienced people.
e) Clean your electric tool carefully. Check whether moving parts are functioning properly and not jamming, whether parts are broken or damaged enough that the functioning of this electric tool is affected. Have damaged parts repaired before using the appliance. Many accidents are caused by badly maintained electric tools.
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
f) Keep your cutting tools sharp and clean. Carefully maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges will jam less and are easier to control.
g) Make sure to use electric tools, accessories, attachments, etc. in accordance with these instructions. Take the conditions in your work area and the job in hand into account.
Using electric tools for any purpose other than the one for which they are intended can lead to dangerous situations.
- Using and handling the cordless tool
a) Only charge the batteries in chargers that are recommended by the manufacturer. A charger that is designed for a certain type of battery may pose a fire risk if it is used with other types of battery.
b) Use only the correct batteries in the electric tools. The use of other batteries may result in injuries and a fi re risk.
c) Keep unused batteries away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws and other metallic objects that could cause a short circuit between the contacts. A short circuit between the battery contacts may cause burns or a fire.
d) In case of incorrect use, fl uid may escape from the battery. Avoid contact with it. If you touch it by accident, rinse the affected area with water. If you get the fl uid in your eyes, also seek medical advice. Leaking battery fluid can cause skin irritation or burns.
- Service
a) Have your electric tool repaired only by trained personnel using only genuine spare parts. This will ensure that your electric tool remains safe to use.
Special safety instructions for chainsaws
- When the chainsaw is running make sure that you keep all parts of your body away from the chainsaw. Before starting
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
up the chainsaw make sure that it is not touching anything.
When you are working with a chainsaw, a single moment of carelessness is all it takes for clothing or parts of your body to get caught by the chainsaw.
- Always hold the chainsaw securely with your right hand on the rear handle and your left hand on the front handle. Holding the chainsaw with your hands in other positions increases the risk of injury and is therefore not allowed.
- Wear safety goggles and ear protection. Other safety equipment for the head, hands, legs and feet is recommended. Correct protective clothing reduces the risk of injury caused by catapulted chips or in the event of accidental contact with the chainsaw.
- Never use the chainsaw up a tree. You risk injuring yourself if you use the chainsaw up a tree.
- Always maintain a steady standing position and only use the chainsaw when you are standing on a solid, safe and flat surface. Slippery or unsafe surfaces in combination with a ladder can cause you to lose your balance and control over the chainsaw.
- When cutting through a branch which is under tension, take into account how it will spring back once the cut has been made. Once the tension in the wood fibers is released, the tensioned branch could hit the operator and/or seize control of the chainsaw.
- Take special care when cutting undergrowth and young trees. The thin material can become caught in the saw chain and whip back towards you or make you lose your balance.
- Carry the chainsaw by the front handle with the chainsaw switched off and the chain facing away from the body. Always fit the protective cover when transporting the chainsaw or putting it into storage. Careful handling of the chainsaw reduces the likelihood of accidental contact with the saw chain while it is running.
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
- Follow the instructions for lubrication, chain tension and replacement of accessories. A chain which is not properly tensioned or lubricated can either break or increase the risk of kickback.
- Keep the handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Greasy or oily handles are slippery and will result in loss of control.
- Only use the chainsaw to cut wood. The chain must only be used to perform the work for which it is intended. For example: Never use the chainsaw to cut plastic or brickwork or building materials which are not made of wood. Use of the chainsaw for non-intended or non-approved work can create dangerous situations.
- When transporting the equipment, remove the battery pack and drain the chain oil from the tank.
Causes of and ways to avoid recoil
Recoil can occur if the tip of the chain bar touches an item or if the wood bends and jams the saw chain in the cut.
In many cases contact with the bar tip can result in an unexpected reaction aimed backwards in which the chain bar is catapulted upwards towards the operator.
Jamming the saw chain on the top of the chain bar can catapult the bar towards the operator at high speed.
Any of these reactions can result in you losing control over the saw and possibly suffering serious injuries. You should therefore not rely totally on the safety equipment fitted to the chainsaw. When using a chainsaw you should take various precautions to enable you to work without suffering accidents or injuries.
Recoil is the result of incorrect or wrong use of the electric tool. It can be prevented by suitable precautions, as described below:
- Hold the saw firmly with both hands, with fingers and
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
thumbs gripped around the handles. Steady yourself with your body and arms in a position in which you can control the kickback forces. Provided appropriate measures are taken, an operator should be capable of controlling the kickback forces. Never let go of the chain saw.
- Avoid abnormal working postures. Never cut above shoulder height. This prevents accidental contact with the tip of the rail and offers better control over the chainsaw in unexpected situations.
- Always use the correct replacement rails and saw chains recommended by the manufacturer. The use of incorrect replacement rails or saw chains may result in breakage of the chain and/or kickback.
- Follow the manufacturer's instructions for sharpening and maintaining the saw chain. The risk of kickback is increased if the depth limiter is set too low.
More important information:
- Before you start felling branches: Make sure that there is nobody within a range of at least two and a half times the length of the branch.
- Take the weather conditions into account when felling trees. Do not fell trees in strong or gusting wind. Do not fell trees in frost conditions or on frozen, icy ground. Do not fell trees in rain or if visibility is poor.
• Comply with local regulations. - Plan an escape route from falling trees or branches in advance. Make sure that this escape route is free of obstacles which could restrict or prevent free movement. Keep in mind that freshly cut grass or bark is slippery.
- Ensure that somebody is in the vicinity (but at a safe distance) in case of an accident.
- When the chain is moving, do not let the tip of the chain bar come into contact with any objects.
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
- Start sawing only after the chain has reached full speed.
- Never try to target a previous cut. Always start a new cut.
- Watch out for moving branches or other forces which could interfere with a cut and impact with the chain.
- Never try to cut a branch with a larger diameter than the cutting length of the equipment.
- Contact your local government offices for information regarding minimum age requirements for operating the equipment.
- Keep the equipment at a minimum distance from overhead power cables.
- Before you begin your work, make yourself well acquainted with all the control elements. Practice handling the equipment and have an expert explain its functions, mode of operation and sawing techniques.
- Never use the equipment if you are ill, tired or under the influence of alcohol or medication. Always take timely breaks from your work. Change your working position regularly.
Warning!
If the equipment is used for a lengthy period, the vibrations it causes in the hands of the user may result in circulation problems (white finger syndrome).
White finger syndrome is a vascular disease that involves seizure-like spasms of the fingers and toes. The affected areas are no longer sufficiently supplied with blood and therefore appear extremely pale. The frequent use of vibrating equipment may trigger nerve damage in people with an impaired circulation (for example smokers, diabetics).
Should you observe any unusual impairments, interrupt your work immediately and consult a doctor.
Follow these instructions in order to reduce the dangers:
- Keep your body and in particular your hands warm when working in the cold.
• Take regular breaks and move your hands to stimulate the blood
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
circulation during the breaks.
- Ensure that the equipment makes the least possible vibration through regular maintenance and solid parts on the equipment.
Additional safety instructions
We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries which feature maximum power density, durability and safety. The battery cells have a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded. This data are then used exclusively to be able to assemble the best possible battery packs. Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be exercised when handling batteries. The following points must be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use.
Safe use can only be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling can cause cell damage.
GB Important: Analyses confirm that incorrect use and poor care are the main causes of the damage caused by high performance batteries.
Information about the battery
- The battery pack supplied with your cordless tool is not charged. The battery pack has to be charged before you use the tool for the first time.
- For optimum battery performance avoid low discharge cycles. Charge the battery pack frequently.
- Store the battery pack in a cool place, ideally at 15°C and charged to at least 40%.
- Lithium-ion batteries are subject to a natural ageing process. The battery pack must be replaced at the latest when its capacity falls to just 80% of its capacity when new. Weakened cells in an aged battery pack are no longer capable of meeting the high power requirements and therefore pose a safety risk.
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
- Do not throw battery packs into an open fire. There is a risk of explosion!
- Do not ignite the battery pack or expose it to fire.
- Do not exhaustively discharge batteries. Exhaustive discharge will damage the battery cells. The most common cause of exhaustive discharge is lengthy storage or non-use of partly discharged batteries. Stop working as soon as the performance of the battery falls noticeably or the electronic protection system triggers. Place the battery pack in storage only after it has been fully charged.
- Protect batteries and the tool from overloads. Overloads will quickly result in overheating and cell damage inside the battery housing without this overheating actually being apparent externally.
- Avoid damage and shocks. Replace batteries which have been dropped from a height of more than one meter or which have been exposed to violent shocks without delay, even if the housing of the battery pack appears to be undamaged. The battery cells inside the battery may have suff ered serious damage. In this respect, please also read the waste disposal information.
- If the battery pack suffers overloading and overheating, the integrated protective cut-off will switch off the equipment for safety reasons. Important. Do not press the ON/OFF switch any more if the protective cut-off has actuated. This may damage the battery pack.
- Use only original battery packs. The use of other batteries may result in injuries, explosion and a fire risk.
Information on chargers and the charging process
-
Please check the data marked on the rating plate of the battery charger. Be sure to connect the battery charger to a power supply with the voltage marked on the rating plate. Never connect it to a different mains voltage.
-
Protect the battery charger and its cable from damage and sharp
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
edges. Have damaged cables repaired without delay by a qualified electrician.
- Keep the battery charger, batteries and the cordless tool out of children's reach.
- Do not use damaged battery chargers.
- Do not use the supplied battery charger to charge other cordless tools.
- In heavy use the battery pack will become warm. Allow the battery pack to cool to room temperature before commencing with the charging.

5.2 Fitting the chain saw mounting kit (for use as a pole-operated pruner)
5.2.a Assembly of the cutter rail and the saw chain
- Undo the fixing screw (C) of the chain wheel cover (Fig. 5).
• Take off the chain wheel cover. - Lay the chain as shown in the groove which runs around the cutter rail (Fig. 6/Item E).
- Insert the cutter rail and chain as shown in the mounting in the chainsaw (Fig. 7). At the same time guide the chain around the chain wheel (Fig. 7/Item K).
- Attach the chain wheel cover (Fig. 8/Item C) and fasten it hand-tight with the fastening screw.
Important! Do not fully tighten the fastening screw until after you have adjusted the chain tension (see section 5.2.b).
5.2.b Tensioning the saw chain
Caution! Always remove the battery from the device before inspection and adjustment. Always wear protective gloves when working on the chainsaw to protect yourself against injury.
- Undo the fixing screw (C) of the chain wheel cover a few turns (Fig. 5).
- Adjust the chain tension with the chain tensioning screw (Fig. 9/Item D). Turning the screw clockwise increases the chain tension, turning it counter-clockwise decreases the chain tension. The saw chain is correctly tensioned if it can be lifted approx. 2 mm in the middle of the cutter rail (Fig. 10).
- Secure the fixing screw (C) of the chain wheel cover (Fig. 8).
Notice! All the chain links must lie properly in the guide groove of the cutter bar.
Notes on tensioning the chain:
The saw chain must be properly tensioned to ensure safe operation.
You can tell that the chain tension is perfect if the saw chain can be
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
lifted by around 2 mm in the middle of the cutter rail. As the saw chain heats up during cutting and thus changes in length, check the chain tension no less than every 10 minutes and adjust it again as required. This applies in particular to new saw chains. When you have finished working slacken the chain again, as the chain will shorten when it cools down. This will prevent the chain from being damaged.
5.2.c Saw chain lubrication
Caution! Always remove the battery from the device before inspection and adjustment. Always wear protective gloves when working on the chainsaw to protect yourself against injury.
Important! Never operate the chain if it is not lubricated with saw chain oil. Use of the chainsaw without saw chain oil or if the oil level is below the viewing window will result in damage to the chainsaw!
Important! Be aware of the temperature conditions: different lubricants with completely different viscosities are required at different ambient temperatures. At lower temperatures you will need low viscosity oils in order to achieve a sufficient lubricating film. However, if the same low viscosity oil is used during the summer it will become even thinner due to the ambient temperatures alone, and as a result the lubricating film could break down, causing the chain to overheat and become damaged. In addition, the chain oil would burn and produce unnecessary pollutants.
GB
Filling the oil tank (Fig. 11):
- Place the chainsaw on a flat surface.
- Clean the area around the oil tank cover (Item 31) and then clean the oil tank cover.
- Fill the tank (Item 30) with saw chain oil. In the process, make sure that no dirt enters the tank, as this could cause the oil nozzle to become blocked.
- Close the oil tank cover (Item 31).

- In the section entitled „Charger indicator“ you will find a table with an explanation of the LED indicator on the charger.
The battery pack can become a little warm during the charging. This is normal.
If the battery pack fails to charge, check:
• whether there is voltage at the socket outlet
- whether there is good contact at the charging contacts.
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
If the battery pack still fails to charge, send
- the charging unit
• and the battery pack
to our customer service center.
To ensure that the battery pack provides long service, you should take care to recharge it promptly. You must recharge the battery pack when you notice that the power of the cordless equipment drops. Never fully discharge the battery pack. This will cause it to develop a defect.

7. Working with the chainsaw mounting kit
Preparations
To ensure that you can work safely, check the following points before every use:
Condition of the chainsaw
Inspect the chainsaw before the start of work for damage to the housing, the power cable, the saw chain and the cutter rail. Never use a chainsaw which is obviously damaged.
Oil container
Fill level of the oil container. Even while working, keep checking that sufficient oil is in the system. To avoid damaging the chainsaw, never run the saw if there is no oil in the system or if the oil drops below the "min" mark. On average, a single filling will last around 20 minutes depending on the number of pauses in cutting and the loads involved.
GB
Saw chain
Tension of the saw chain, condition of the cutting elements. The sharper the chainsaw, the easier and more controllable it is to operate the chainsaw. The same also applies to the chain tension. Also while working you should check the chain tension no less than every 10 minutes in order to increase your safety. New saw chains in particular often tend to expand more.
Safety clothing
Always wear appropriate tight-fitting safety clothing like special trousers which protect against cuts, protective gloves and safety shoes.
Hearing protection and protective goggles.
Wear a protective helmet with integral face and hearing protection. This will offer protection against falling branches and any branches if they spring back.
Safe working
- To ensure that you can work in safety you must use the equipment at a working angle of max. 60°.
- Never stand under the branch you want to saw.
- Use special caution when working with branches under tension and splintered wood.
- Possible risk of injury caused by falling branches and catapulting pieces of wood.
- When the equipment is in operation keep other persons and animals away from the danger zone.
- The equipment is not protected from electric shock through contact with high-voltage cables. Keep a minimum distance of 10 m from live cables. Electric shock can cause fatal injury.
- When working on slopes always stand to the upper or left or right side of the branch you wish to cut.
- Hold the equipment as close as possible to your body. This will help you to keep your balance.
Cutting techniques
- When removing branches, hold the equipment at an angle of max. 60° to the horizontal to avoid being hit by a falling branch (Fig. 25).
- Start with the bottom branches on the tree. This will make it easier for the cut branches to drop.
- After completing a cut, the weight of the saw will abruptly increase for the operator as the saw is no longer supported by the branch. This can result in you losing control over the saw.
- Remove the saw from the cut only with the saw chain still running. This will prevent the saw from getting jammed.
• Never cut with the tip of the saw.
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
- Never cut into the bulging branch collar. This will prevent the tree from healing.
Sawing off smaller branches (Fig. 26):
Place the contact surface of the saw onto the branch. This will prevent the saw from making jerky movements when you begin a cut. Exerting slight pressure, guide the saw from the top to the bottom through the branch.
Sawing off larger and longer branches (Fig. 27):
Carry out a relief cut when working on larger branches.
Start by sawing through 1/3 of the branch diameter (a) from the bottom to the top with the top side of the cutter rail. Then saw towards the first cut (b) from the top to the bottom with the bottom side of the cutter rail.
Saw off longer branches in several steps to keep control over the impact location.
GB
Kick-back!
The term “kickback” describes what happens when the running chainsaw suddenly kicks upward and backward. Usually, this is caused by contact between the tip of the cutter rail and the workpiece or the saw chain becoming trapped.
In the event of kickback, large forces occur suddenly and violently. As a result, the chainsaw usually reacts uncontrollably. This can often result in very serious injuries to the worker or persons in the vicinity. The risk of kickback is at its greatest when the saw is positioned for a cut in the region of the tip of the cutter rail, as the leverage effect is greatest there. It is therefore safest to position the saw as flat as possible.
Important!
• Make sure that the chain tension is always correctly adjusted.
- Only use a chainsaw if it is in perfect working order.
• Only work with a saw chain that has been properly sharpened in
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
accordance with the instructions.
- Never cut with the upper edge or the tip of the cutter rail.
• Always hold the chainsaw firmly with both hands.
Cutting wood which is under tension
Special care is required when cutting wood which is under tension. Wood which is under tension from which it is released by cutting may in some cases react completely unpredictably and uncontrollably. In the worst case this could result in extremely severe or even fatal injuries. This type of work must only be performed by persons who have been specially trained.
8. Care and maintenance
Danger!
Remove the battery pack before doing any cleaning and maintenance work.
- Always keep the tool clean and dry and protect it from oil and grease.
- Wear safety goggles to protect your eyes during cleaning.
- Always keep the tool and the air vents clean in order to ensure safe and correct use.
- Check the ventilation grilles at the motor and at the On/Off switch for dust and foreign bodies. Remove layers of dust with a soft brush.
- If required, use a soft damp rag to wipe the tool housing clean. You can use a mild cleaning agent but no alcohol, petrol or other cleaning agent.
- Never use aggressive cleaning agents to clean plastic parts.
- Lubricate all moving parts regularly.
- Check all fasteners regularly. Vibrations might cause fasteners to become loose in the course of time.
• Regularly clean the clamping mechanism by blowing it out with
GB
Pattfield® ERGO TOOLS
compressed air or cleaning it with a brush. Do not use tools for cleaning.
- Clean the equipment as required with a damp cloth and, if necessary, mild washing up liquid.
Replacing the saw chain and cutter rail
The cutter rail needs to be replaced if the guide groove of the cutter rail is worn; Proceed as described in the section "Assembly of the cutter rail and the saw chain".
Checking the automatic chain lubrication
You should check the operation of the automatic chain lubrication system on a regular basis in order to guard against overheating and the associated damage to the cutter rail and the saw chain. To do this, point the tip of the cutter rail towards a smooth surface (board, section of a cut tree) and allow the chainsaw to run. If an increasing oil trace becomes evident during this process then the automatic chain lubrication system is working properly. If no clear oil trace is evident then please refer to the corresponding instructions in “Troubleshooting”. If the information contained there still fails to remedy the situation then please contact our service department or another similarly qualified workshop.
Important! Do not actually touch the surface with the tip of the cutter rail when performing this test. Keep a safe distance (approx. 20 cm).
Sharpening the saw chain
Eff ective working with the chainsaw is only possible if the saw chain is in good condition and sharp. This also reduces the risk of kickback. The saw chain can be re-sharpened by any dealer. Do not attempt to sharpen the saw chain yourself unless you have the necessary special tools and experience.

Dear Customer,
All of our products undergo strict quality checks to ensure that they reach you in perfect condition. In the unlikely event that your device develops a fault, please contact our service department at the address shown on this guarantee card or the sales outlet from where you bought the device. Please note the following terms under which guarantee claims can be made:
-
These warranty terms regulate additional warranty services, which the manufacturer mentioned below promises to buyers of its new products in addition to their statutory rights of guarantee. Your statutory guarantee claims are not affected by this guarantee. Our guarantee is free of charge to you.
-
The warranty services cover only defects due to material or manufacturing faults on a product which you have bought from the manufacturer mentioned below and are limited to either the rectification of said defects on the product or the replacement of the product, whichever we prefer.
Please note that our devices are not designed for use in commercial, trade or professional applications. A guarantee contract will not be created if the device has been used by commercial, trade or industrial business or has been exposed to similar stresses during the guarantee period.
- The following are not covered by our guarantee:
- Damage to the device caused by a failure to follow the assembly instructions or due to incorrect installation, a failure to follow the operating instructions (for example connecting it to an incorrect mains voltage or current type) or a failure to follow the maintenance and safety instructions or by exposing the device to abnormal environmental conditions or by lack of care and maintenance. - Damage to the device caused by abuse or incorrect use (for example overloading the device or the use or unapproved tools or accessories), ingress of foreign bodies into the device (such as

sand, stones or dust, transport damage), the use of force or damage caused by external forces (for example by dropping it).
- Damage to the device or parts of the device caused by normal or natural wear or tear or by normal use of the device.
- The guarantee is valid for a period of 3 years starting from the purchase date of the device. Guarantee claims should be submitted before the end of the guarantee period within two weeks of the defect being noticed. No guarantee claims will be accepted after the end of the guarantee period. The original guarantee period remains applicable to the device even if repairs are carried out or parts are replaced. In such cases, the work performed or parts fitted will not result in an extension of the guarantee period, and no new guarantee will become active for the work performed or parts fitted. This also applies if an on-site service is used.
Also refer to the restrictions of this warranty concerning wear parts, consumables and missing parts as set out in the service information in these operating instructions.
