starting lockout lever.
WARNING
Note that the chain continues to run for a
short period after you let go of the trigger
switch and starting lockout lever –
flywheel effect.
During longer work breaks – disconnect
the plug from the wall outlet.
When the power tool is not in use, store
it in such a way that it does not endanger
others.
Secure it against unauthorized use.
Overload Cutout
The unit is equipped with an overload
circuit breaker
which cuts off the power suppy in the
event of mechanical overload due to,
e.g.
excessive infeed force
–
"lugging down" the motor
–
pinching the saw chain in the cut
–
If the overload circuit breaker has cut off
the power supply:
Pull the guide bar out of the cut.
N
Wait about 3 minutes for the
N
overload circuit breaker to cool
down.
Do not switch on the unit during this
period because you will otherwise
prolong the required cooling time.
Once the motor starts:
Run the unit for about 15 seconds
N
off load. This helps cool the motor
windings and considerably delays
renewed tripping of the overload
circuit breaker.
