Operation
When working with the chain saw always hold it with both hands. Take the
rear handle with the right hand and the front handle with the left hand. Hold the
handles tightly with your thumbs facing your ngers.
CAUTION: When releasing the throttle trigger the chain will keep on
running for a short period of time (free-wheeling).
Continuously ensure that you have a safe footing.
Hold the chain saw such that you will not breathe in the exhaust gas. Do not work
in closed rooms (danger of poisoning).
Switch off the chain saw immediately if you observe any changes in its
operating behavior.
The engine must be switched off before checking the chain tension,
tightening the chain, replacing it or clearing malfunctions.
When the sawing device is hit by stones, nails or other hard objects, switch off
the engine immediately and check the sawing device.
When stopping work or leaving the working place, switch off the chain saw and
put it down such that nobody is endangered.
CAUTION: Do not put the overheated power chain saw in dry grass or on
any inammable objects. The mufer is very hot (danger of re).
CAUTION: Oil dropping from the chain or guide bar after having stopped the saw
chain will pollute the soil. Always use an appropriate base.
Kickback
When working with the chain saw dangerous kickbacks may occur.
Kickback occurs when the upper part of the end of the guide bar inadvertently
touches wood or other hard objects.
This causes the saw to be thrown back toward the user with great force and out
of control. Risk of injury!
In order to prevent kickback, follow these rules:
- Only specially-trained persons should perform plunge cuts, i.e., piercing timber
or wood with the tip of the saw!
- Never apply the end of the bar when starting to make a cut.
- Always observe the end of the guide bar. Be careful when continuing an
already started cut.
- When starting to cut the chain must be running.
- Ensure that the chain is always sharpened correctly. Pay special attention to
the height of the depth limiter.
- Never cut several branches at the same time. When cutting a branch ensure
that no other branch is touched.
- When crosscutting a trunk be aware of the trunks next to it.
Working behavior/Method of working
Only use the chain saw during good light and visibility periods. Be aware of
slippery or wet areas, and of ice and snow (risk of slipping). The risk of slipping is
extremely high when working on recently peeled wood (bark).
Never work on unstable surfaces. Make sure that there are no obstacles in the
working area, risk of stumbling. Always ensure that you have a safe footing.
Never saw above your shoulder height.
Never saw while standing on a ladder.
Never climb up into trees to perform sawing with the chain saw.
Do not work leaning too far over.
Guide the chain saw in such a way that no part of your body is within the
elongated swivelling range of the saw.
Use the chain saw for sawing wood only.
Avoid touching the ground with the chain saw while it is still running.
Never use the chain saw for lifting up or removing pieces of wood or other
objects.
Remove foreign objects such as sand, stones and nails found within the working
area. Foreign objects may damage the sawing device and can cause dangerous
kickback.
When sawing precut timber use a safe support (sawing jack). Do not steady the
workpiece with your foot, and do not allow anyone else to hold or steady it.
Secure round pieces against rotation.
