Safety instructions for Electrical branch
chainsaw
Keep all parts of your body in safe distance from
the saw when running. Before starting the saw,
make sure the saw chain does not touch any-
thing. A moment of inattention when working with
the chainsaw is able to cause the saw chain to catch
your clothes or parts of your body.
Wear protective glasses and ear protectors.
Further, wearing head, hand and leg protection
equipment is recommended. Suitable protective
clothing minimises the risk of injury by thrown-away
wood chips and possible contact with the saw chain.
Do not work on trees with the chainsaw. There is a
risk of injury when working on a tree.
Provide safe posture at all times and use the
chainsaw only when standing on a solid, safe
and level surface. A slippery or unstable surface,
such as ladder, may lead to loss of balance or loss
of control over the chainsaw.
When cutting a tense branch, be sure to know
that the branch will bounce back. If tension in the
wood fibres gets released, the tense branch may hit
the operator and/or cause a loss of control over the
chainsaw.
Be especially careful when cutting scrubs and
saplings. Thin material may get caught in the chain-
saw and hit you or you may lose your balance.
Carry the chainsaw by the front handle in a
switched-off condition and the saw chain must
be deflected from your body. Fit a protection cov-
er on the chainsaw whenever it is transported
or stored. Careful chainsaw treatment reduces the
likelihood of an accidental contact with the running
saw chain.
Follow the instructions for lubrication, chain ten-
sioning and replacing accessories. An improperly
tensioned or lubricated chain can break and increase
the risk of kickback.
Only saw wood. Do not use the branch chainsaw
for work for which it is not intended. Example:
Do not use the branch chainsaw to saw plastic,
brickwork or building materials other than wood.
Using the branch chainsaw for unintended work can
cause dangerous situations.
