chainsaws.
The intended use is described in this instruction manual. Do
not use the tool for purposes not intended; for example do
not use the tool to fell trees. The use of any accessory or
attachment or performance of any operation with this tool
other than those recommended in this instruction manual
may present a risk of personal injury.
Wear close fitting and protective clothing including a
safety helmet with visor/goggles, ear protectors, non-
skid safety footwear, protective bib trousers and strong
leather gloves.
Always position yourself out of the path of falling
branches.
The safe distance between a branch to be felled and
bystanders, buildings and other objects is at least 2 1/2
times the length of the branch. Any bystander, building
or object within this distance is at risk from being struck
by the falling branch.
Pre-plan a safe exit from falling branches. Ensure the
exit route is clear of obstacles that would prevent or
hinder movement. Remember wet grass and freshly cut
bark is slippery.
Ensure someone is nearby (but at a safe distance) in
case of an accident.
Do not use the tool while standing in a tree, on a ladder
or on any other unstable surface.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
Hold the tool firmly with both hands when the motor is
running.
Do not let the moving chain contact any object at the tip
of the guide bar.
Start cutting only with the chain moving at full speed.
Do not attempt to enter a previous cut. Always make a
fresh cut.
Watch for shifting branches or other forces that could
close a cut and pinch or fall into the chain.
Do not attempt to cut a branch when the diameter of the
branch exceeds the cutting length of the tool.
Always remove the battery from the tool and place the
chain cover assembly over the chain when storing or
transporting the tool.
Keep the saw chain sharp and properly tensioned.
Check the tension at regular intervals.
Switch the tool off, allow the chain to stop and remove
the battery from the tool before carrying out any
adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
Only use genuine replacement parts and accessories.
Causes and operator prevention of kickback
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar
touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches
the saw chain in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden reverse
reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the
operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may
push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator.
Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the
chainsaw which could result in serious personal injury. Do
not rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into your
chainsaw. As a chainsaw user, you should take several
steps to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and / or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by
taking proper precautions as given below:
Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers encircling
the chainsaw handles. With both hands on the
chainsaw, position your body and arm to allow you to
resist kickback forces. Kickback forces can be
controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are
taken. Do not let go of the chainsaw.
Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder height.
This helps prevent unintended tip contact and enables
better control of the chainsaw in unexpected situations.
Only use replacement guide bars and chains specified
by the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement guide bars
and chains may cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
Follow the manufacturer's sharpening and maintenance
instructions for the saw chain. Decreasing the depth
gauge height can lead to increased kickback.
Safety recommendations for the chainsaw
We strongly recommend that first time users obtain
practical instruction in the use of the chainsaw and
protective equipment from an experienced user. Initial
practice should be completed sawing logs on a saw
horse or cradle.
We recommend that when carrying the chainsaw that
you make sure that the brake is engaged
