m WARNING
Danger of accident!
Do not under any circumstances saw the breaking
strip C during felling cut B, otherwise the tree may fall
in an unpredictable direction!
Be prepared for the tree to "slide" uncontrollably
when falling on the cut.
Be prepared for the tree to "jump" uncontrollably in
one direction when it hits the ground.
• To prevent the chainsaw from jamming in felling cut
B, drive aluminium or plastic wedges into felling cut
B in good time. Do not use iron wedges.
m ATTENTION
Property damage!
Make sure that the wedge does not come into contact
with the saw chain (17). It can be severely damaged
by this.
10.4 Delimbing work
• Always be aware of the danger of branches snap-
ping back.
• Do not stand on the trunk when delimbing.
• Do not saw with the tip of the guide bar.
• Never saw several branches at once.
• Support the chainsaw with the claw stop (15) when
delimbing, if possible.
• Make sure that at the end of the cut the chainsaw
can swing through under its own weight. It is no
longer supported in the cut so hold it securely.
• Take a firm, stable and secure stance when delimb-
ing.
10.4.1 Delimbing work in sections
Shorten long or thick branches before making the fi-
nal cut (see Fig. N). Otherwise the saw chain (17) can
easily jam.
11. Working on tensioned wood
It is essential to follow the correct sequence when
working on wood that is tensioned. Otherwise the
saw chain (17) may jam or kick-back may occur.
Tensioned wood must always be cut on the com-
pressed side first. Only then perform the separating
cut using the opposite side.
This prevents the saw chain (17) from jamming.
m ATTENTION
Property damage!
Lying wood must not touch the ground on the under-
side of the cutting point, otherwise the saw chain (17)
may be damaged.

Safe work
• Keep the device in good working order to prevent
injuries.
• After dropping the device, check for significant
damage or defects.
• Do not use the device whilst standing on a ladder or
in an unsafe position.
• Do not be tempted to make a rash cut. This could
endanger yourself and others.
• Change your working position regularly. Prolonged
use of the device can lead to vibration-induced
circulatory disorders of the hands. However, you
can extend the duration of use by wearing suitable
gloves or taking regular breaks. Be aware that per-
sonal predisposition to poor circulation, low outside
temperatures or large gripping forces when work-
ing reduce the duration of use.
11.1 Wooden branch is bent downwards
• First saw relief cut 1 (approx. 1/3 of the branch di-
ameter) on the compressed side (see fig. K).
• Then make cut 2 (approx. 2/3 of the branch diame-
ter) on the tensioned side (see fig. K).
11.2 Wooden branch is bent upwards
• First saw relief cut 1 (approx. 1/3 of the branch di-
ameter) on the compressed side (see fig. K).
• Then make cut 2 (approx. 2/3 of the branch diame-
ter) on the tensioned side (see fig. K).
12. Transport
• Always use the guide rail cover (27) when trans-
porting.
• Switch off the chainsaw before any transport, even
over short distances. Secure the machine against
tipping over during transport (including in vehicles)
to prevent fuel loss, damage or injury.
• Carry the device only by the front handle (2). In do-
ing so, the guide bar points backwards, away from
your body (see fig. L).
• Keep the hot silencer away from your body. There
is a risk of burns!
13. Cleaning and maintenance
All instructions regarding maintenance and cleaning
must be carried out regularly or daily and before each
commissioning. Incorrect maintenance can lead to
severe property or personal damages. If this work
cannot be carried out by the user themselves, see a
specialist dealer.
