■ When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert

for spring back. When the tension in the wood fibres

is released, the spring loaded limb may strike the

operator and/or throw the chainsaw out of control.

■ Use extreme caution when cutting brushes and

saplings. The slender material may catch the saw

chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off

balance.

■ Carry the chainsaw by the front handle with the

chainsaw switched off and away from your body.

When transporting or storing the chainsaw always fit

the guide bar cover. Proper handling of the chainsaw

will reduce the likelihood of accidental contact with

the moving saw chain.

■ Follow instructions for lubrication, chain tensioning

and changing accessories. Improperly tensioned or

lubricated chains may either break or increase the

chance for kickback.

■ Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and

grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery and can

causing the loss of control.

■ Cut wood only. Do not use chainsaw for purposes

not intended. For example: do not use the chainsaw

for cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood building

materials. Use of the chainsaw for operations

different than intended can result in a hazardous

situation.

■ Causes and operator prevention of kickback

a) Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the

guide bar touches an object, or when the wood

closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut.

b) Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden

reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and

back towards the operator.

c) Pinching the saw chain along the top of the

guard bar may push the guide bar rapidly back

towards the operator.

d) Either of these reactions may cause you to lose

control of the saw which could result in serious

injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the safety

devices built into your saw. As a chainsaw user,

you should take several steps to keep your

cutting jobs free from accident or Injury.

e) Kickback is the result of tool misuse and /or

incorrect opera ing procedures or conditions and

can be avoided by taking proper precautions as

given below:

1) Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers

encircling the chainsaw handles, with both

hands on the saw and position your body

and arm to allow you to resist kickback force.

Kickback forces can be controlled by the

operator, if proper precautions are taken. Do

not let go of the chainsaw.

2) Do not overreach and do not cut above

shoulder height. This helps to prevent

unintended tip contact and enables better

control of the chainsaw in unexpected

situations.

3) Only use replacement bars and chains

specified by the manufacturer. Incorrect

replacement bars and chains may cause

chain breakage and/or kickback.

4) Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and

maintenance instructions for the saw chain.

Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead

to increased kickback.

■ It is recommended to use a residual current device

with a tripping current of 30mA or less.

■ Ensure that the power cord and the extension

cord of the chainsaw cannot become entangled in

branches or any other objects during the usage of the

chainsaw.

■ If you are an unexperienced user of the chainsaw,

you should practice cutting logs on a saw-horse

or cradle before using the chainsaw without these

supporting tools.

■ The chainsaw has a high starting current and

should be connected to a robust power supply. The

chainsaw should be connected to a power source

with an impedance of Zsysmax=0.12+0.08j or less.

Please consult your electricity provider or au hority if

necessary.
