5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a quali ed
repair person using only identical replacement

This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
PRECAUTION
Keep children and in rm persons away.
When not in use, tools should be stored out of reach
of children and in rm persons.
CHAIN SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain when
the chain saw is operating. Before you start the chain
saw, make sure the saw chain is not contacting anything.
A moment of inattention while operating chain saws
may cause entanglement of your clothing or body with
the saw chain.
2. Always hold the chain saw with your right hand on the rear
handle and your left hand on the front handle. Holding the
chain saw with a reversed hand con guration increases
the risk of personal injury and should never be done.
3. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
because the saw chain may contact hidden wiring or its
own cord. Saw chains contacting a “live” wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could
give the operator an electric shock.
4. Wear safety glasses and hearing protection. Further
protective equipment for head, hands, legs and feet
is recommended. Adequate protective clothing will
reduce personal injury by ying debris or accidental
contact with the saw chain.
5. Do not operate a chain saw in a tree. Operation of
a chain saw while up in a tree may result in personal
injury.
6. Always keep proper footing and operate the chain saw
only when standing on xed, secure and level surface.
Slippery or unstable surfaces such as ladders may
cause a loss of balance or control of the chain saw.
7. When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert for
spring back. When the tension in the wood bres is
released the spring loaded limb may strike the operator
and/or throw the chain saw out of control.
8. Use extreme caution when cutting brush and saplings.
The slender material may catch the saw chain and be
whipped toward you or pull you o balance.
9. Carry the chain saw by the front handle with the chain
saw switched o and away from your body. When
transporting or storing the chain saw always t the
guide bar cover. Proper handling of the chain saw will
reduce the likelihood of accidental contact with the
moving saw chain.
10. Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning
and changing accessories. Improperly tensioned or
lubricated chain may either break or increase the
chance for kickback.
11. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing loss of
control.
12. Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for purposes not
intended. For example: do not use chain saw for cutting
plastic, masonry or non-wood building materials. Use
of the chain saw for operations di erent than intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
Causes and operator prevention of kickback: (Fig. 1)
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.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden reverse
reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the
operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide
bar may push the guide bar rapidly back towards the
operator.
Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control
of the saw which could result in serious personal injury.
Do not rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into
your saw. As a chain saw user, you should take several
steps to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or
injury.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided
by taking proper precautions as given below:
Maintain a rm grip, with thumbs and ngers encircling
the chain saw handles, with both hands on the saw
and position your body and arm to allow you to resist
kickback forces. Kickback forces can be controlled by
the operator, if proper precautions are taken. Do not let
go of the chain saw.
Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder height.
This helps prevent unintended tip contact and enables
better control of the chain saw in unexpected situations.
Only use replacement bars and chains speci ed by the
manufacturer. Incorrect replacement bars and chains
may cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance
instructions for the saw chain. Decreasing the depth
gauge height can lead to increased kickback.
Chain brake operation:
If a chain saw hits a solid object at a high speed it reacts
violently and kicks back. This is di cult to control and
could be dangerous, especially with lightweight tools
that tend to be used in all kind of positions. The chain
brake immediately stops the chain from rotating if there
is an unexpected kickback. The chain brake can be
activated by pressing your hand against the handguard
or automatically by the kickback itself.
The chain brake can only be reset after the motor
has stopped completely. Reset the handle to the rear
position (Fig. 2). Check the function of the chain brake
every day.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Use the electrical voltage listed on the name plate for
the power source.
The use of a voltage that exceeds this may result in
injury.
2. Work without pressure. In addition, always keep your
body warm.
3. Before commencing work, re ect fully on the work
procedures involved and work to avoid accidents,
otherwise injury may occur.
4. Do not use in the event of bad weather, such as strong
wind, rain, snow, fog, or in areas prone to rockfall or
avalanches.
In bad weather, judgment may be impaired and the
vibration may result in disaster.
5. When visibility is poor, such as during bad weather or
night, do not use the unit. In addition, do not use it in rain
or in a location exposed to rain.
Unstable foothold or loss of balance may result in an
accident.
