Position the chain saw in such a way that your body is clear of the cutting attachment whenever the engine is running. Stand to the left of cut while bucking.

Warning!

To reduce the risk of falls, keep rotating saw chain well clear of harness and lifelines to avoid them being severed. It is essential to use a double lifeline.

Check condition of harness, belts and ropes at regular frequent intervals. Always pull the saw out of the cut with the chain running.

After finishing a cut, activate the chain brake to lock the chain or shut down the engine before moving the saw to another position in the tree.

Never put pressure on the saw when reaching the end of a cut. The pressure may cause the bar and rotating chain to pop out of the cut or kerf, go out of control and strike the operator or some other object. If the rotating chain strikes some other object, a reactive force may cause the moving chain to strike the operator.

Working Conditions

Operate and start your power tool only outdoors in a well-ventilated area. Operate it under good visibility and daylight conditions only. Work carefully.

Warning!

Your chain saw is a one-person machine. Do not allow other persons in the general work area, even when start- ing. They should stand well clear of the branches being cut. Stop the engine immediately if you are approached.

Warning!

Even though bystanders should be kept away from the running saw, never work alone. Keep within calling distance of others in case help is needed.

Warning!

To reduce the risk of injury to bystanders and damage to property, never let your power tool run unattended. When it is not in use (e. g. during a work break), shut it off and make sure that unauthorized persons do not use it.

Warning!

As soon as the engine is running, this product generates toxic exhaust fumes containing chemi- cals, such as unburned hydrocarbons (including

benzene) and carbon monoxide, that are known to cause respiratory prob- lems, cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Some of the gases (e. g. carbon monoxide) may be colorless and odorless. To reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury/illness from inhaling toxic fumes, never run the machine indoors or in poorly ventilated locations. If exhaust fumes become concentrated due to insufficient ventilation, clear obstructions from work area to permit proper ventilation before proceeding and/or take frequent breaks to allow fumes to dissipate before they become concentrated.

Warning!

Operate your chain saw so that it produces a minimum of noise and emissions – do not run engine unnecessarily and accelerate the engine only for cutting.
