SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

5 Vibration damping system

Your chain saw is equipped with a vibration damping system that is designed to minimise vibrations and make operation easier.

When you use a chain saw vibrations are generated by the uneven contact between the chain and the wood you are cutting.

Cutting hardwoods (most broadleaf trees) creates more vibration than cutting softwoods (most conifers). Cutting with a chain that is blunt or faulty (wrong type or badly sharpened, see section

D)will increase the vibration level.

The vibration damping system reduces the vibrations transmitted from the engine and chain to the handles of the chain saw. The body of the saw, including the cutting equipment, is insulated from the handles by vibration damping units.

Overexposure to vibration can lead to circulatory damage or nerve damage in people who have impaired circulation.

Contact your doctor if you experience symptoms of overexposure to vibration. These symptoms include numbness, loss of feeling, tingling, pricking, pain, loss of strength, changes in skin colour or condition. These symptoms normally appear in the fingers, hands or wrists.

6 Stop switch

Use the stop switch to switch off the engine.

7 Muffler

The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user.

The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot and may contain sparks which can start a fire. Never start the saw indoors or near combustible material!

In areas with a hot, dry climate there is a high risk of forest fires. These areas are sometimes controlled by legislation and requirements that among other things the muffler must be equipped with an approved type of spark arrestor mesh.

For mufflers it is very important that you follow the instructions on checking, maintaining and servicing your saw (see the section on ”Inspecting, maintaining and servicing chain saw safety equipment”).

The muffler gets very hot in use and remains so for a short time afterwards. DO NOT TOUCH THE MUFFLER IF IT IS HOT!

CS 2165, CS 2171, CS2163 specifications

The Jonsered CS2163, CS2171, and CS2165 are a trio of powerful chain saws designed for professionals and serious enthusiasts alike. These models are particularly noteworthy for their blend of performance, durability, and user-friendly features, making them suitable for a wide range of cutting tasks.

The Jonsered CS2163 is equipped with a robust 3.1 kW engine, providing ample power for various cutting jobs, from felling trees to limbing and even cutting firewood. One of its notable features is the Quick-Release Air Filter, which allows for easy access and maintenance, ensuring optimal engine performance. Additionally, the CS2163 incorporates the Smart Start technology that reduces the resistance in the starter cord, allowing users to start the saw with minimal effort.

The CS2171, on the other hand, is a more advanced model designed for heavy-duty applications. This saw comes with a 3.4 kW engine and boasts a larger cutting capacity, making it perfect for professional users who tackle more demanding tasks. Its X-Torq engine design significantly lowers fuel consumption and emissions, aligning with environmental standards while delivering exceptional power. The CS2171 also features an anti-vibration system that enhances user comfort during extended cutting sessions, therefore maximizing productivity without sacrificing ease of use.

The CS2165 occupies a sweet spot between the CS2163 and CS2171, offering a balance of power and efficiency. Powered by a 3.2 kW engine, it provides ample performance for most tasks while still being lightweight for easy maneuverability. This model includes the same Quick-Release Air Filter found in the CS2163, making maintenance a breeze. The CS2165 also features an adjustable oil pump, allowing users to customize the oil flow to the chain based on their specific cutting needs, enhancing the longevity of both the saw and the chain.

All three models prioritize user safety, featuring a chain brake system that quickly halts the chain in case of kickback. Furthermore, the ergonomic design of the handles offers a comfortable grip, reducing fatigue during longer cutting sessions.

In summary, the Jonsered CS2163, CS2171, and CS2165 are exceptional chainsaws that cater to the needs of professionals and enthusiasts alike, combining power, technology, and ease of use in one reliable package. Their innovative features, efficient engines, and focus on user comfort make them an excellent choice for anyone in need of a high-performance chainsaw.
