Warning!
Because a clearing saw is
a high-speed, fast-cutting
power tool, special safety
precautions must be
observed to reduce the risk of personal
injury.
It is important that you
read, fully understand and
observe the following
safety precautions and
warnings. Read the
owner's manual and the
safety instructions periodically. Careless
or improper use of any clearing saw may
cause serious or fatal injury.
Have your STIHL dealer show you how
to operate your clearing saw. Observe
all applicable local safety regulations,
standards and ordinances.
!Warning!
Do not lend or rent your clearing saw
without the owner's manual. Be sure that
anyone using your clearing saw
understands the information contained
in this manual.
!Warning!
The use of any clearing saw may be
hazardous. If the rotating cutting tool
comes in contact with your body, it will
cut you. When it comes in contact with
solid foreign objects such as rocks or
bits of metal, it may fling them directly or
by ricochet in the direction of bystanders
or the operator.
Striking such objects could damage the
cutting attachment and may cause
blades to crack, chip or break.
STIHL does not recommend the use of
rigid blades when cutting in stony areas.
Thrown objects or damaged blades may
result in serious or fatal injury to the
operator or bystanders.
!Warning!
Minors should never be allowed to use a
clearing saw. Bystanders, especially
children, and animals should not be
allowed in the area where a clearing saw
is in use.
Never let the clearing saw run
unattended.
Most of these safety precautions and
warnings apply to the use of all STIHL
clearing saws. Different models may
have different parts and controls. See
the appropriate section of your owner's
manual for a description of the controls
and function of the parts of your model
clearing saw.
Safe use of a clearing saw involves
1. the operator
2. the clearing saw
3. the use of the clearing saw.
THE OPERATOR
Physical Condition
You must be in good physical condition
and mental health and not under the
influence of any substance (drugs,
alcohol, etc.) which might impair vision,
dexterity or judgement. Do not operate a
clearing saw when you are fatigued.
Be alert – if you get tired while operating
your clearing saw, take a break.
Tiredness may result in loss of control.
Working with any clearing saw can be
strenuous. If you have any condition that
might be aggravated by strenuous work,
check with your doctor before operating
a clearing saw.
