SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Fuel safety

WARNING! Fuel and fuel vapour are highly

!flammable.Take care when handling fuel and chain oil. Be aware of the risks of fire, explosion and those associated with inhalation.

•Never refuel the machine while the engine is running.

•Make sure there is plenty of ventilation when refuelling or mixing fuel (gasoline and 2-stroke oil).

•Move the machine at least 3 m from the refuelling point before starting it.

•Never start the machine:

1If you have spilt fuel or chain oil on the machine. Wipe off the spillage and allow remaining fuel to evaporate.

2If you have spilt fuel on yourself or your clothes, change your clothes. Wash any part of your body that has come in contact with fuel. Use soap and water.

3If the machine is leaking fuel. Check regularly for leaks from the fuel cap and fuel lines.

Transport and storage

•Always store the chain saw and fuel so that there is no risk of leakages or fumes coming into contact with sparks or naked flames from electrical equipment, electric motors, relays/switches, boilers and the like.

•Always store fuel in an approved container designed for that purpose.

•For longer periods of storage or for transport of the chain saw, the fuel and chain oil tanks should be emptied. Ask where you can dispose of waste fuel and chain oil at your local gas station.

•Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a complete service is carried out before long-term storage.

•The transport guard must always be fitted to the cutting attachment when the machine is being transported or in storage.

General working instructions

WARNING! This section describes basic

!safety rules for using a chain saw. This information is never a substitute for professional skills and experience. If you get into a situation where you feel unsafe, stop and seek expert advice. Contact your chain saw dealer, service agent or an experienced chain saw user. Do not attempt any task that you feel unsure of!

Before using a chain saw you must understand the effects of kickback and how to avoid them. See instructions under the heading How to avoid kickback.

Before using a chain saw you must understand the difference between cutting with the top and bottom edges of the bar. See instructions under the heading How to avoid kickback.

Basic safety rules

•Look around you:

-To ensure that people, animals or other things cannot affect your control of the machine.

-To make sure that none of the above might come within reach of your saw or be injured by falling trees.

Follow the instructions above, but do not use a chain saw in a situation where you cannot call for help in case of an accident.

•Do not use the machine in bad weather, such as dense fog, heavy rain, strong wind, intense cold, etc. Working in bad weather is tiring and often brings added risks, such as icy ground, unpredictable felling direction, etc.

•Take great care when removing small branches and avoid cutting bushes (i.e. cutting many small branches at the same time). Small branches can be grabbed by the chain and thrown back at you, causing serious injury.

•Make sure you can move and stand safely. Check the area around you for possible obstacles (roots, rocks, branches, ditches, etc.) in case you have to move suddenly. Take great care when working on sloping ground.
