waRNiNG: Read all safety warnings
and instructions. Failure to follow
the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for
future reference.
The term power tool in the warnings refer to
your electric (corded) power tool or battery-
operated (cordless) power tool.
1) work area safety
a) keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) do not operate power tools in
explosive atmospheres, such as in the
presence of flammable liquids, gases
or dust. Power tools create sparks which
Chain Saw
may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) keep children and bystanders
away while operating a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2) Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in
any way. do not use any adapter
plugs with grounded power tools.
Unmodified plugs and matching outlets
will reduce risk of electric shock.
b) avoid body contact with grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
ranges and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body
is grounded.
c) do not expose power tools to rain or
wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will increase the risk of electric shock.
d) do not abuse the cord. Never use
the cord for carrying, pulling or
unplugging the power tool. keep cord
away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled
cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) when operating a power tool
outdoors, use an extension cord
suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electric shock.
f) if operating a power tool in a damp
location is unavoidable, use a ground
fault circuit interrupter (GFCi)
protected supply. Use of an GFCI
reduces the risk of electric shock.
3) Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are
doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. do not use
a power tool while you are tired or
under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b) use personal protective equipment.
always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
en
protection used for appropriate conditions
will reduce personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure
the switch is in the off-position before
connecting to power source and/or
battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your
finger on the switch or energizing power
tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench
before turning the power tool on. A
wrench or a key left attached to a rotating
part of the power tool may result in
personal injury.
e) do not overreach. keep proper
footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
f) dress properly. do not wear loose
clothing or jewelry. keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) if devices are provided for the
connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) do not force the power tool. use
the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was designed.
b) do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be
repaired.
c) disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the
reach of children and do not allow
Chain Saw
persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other
condition that may affect the power
tools operation. if damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many
accidents are caused by poorly maintained
power tools.
f) keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
g) use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits etc., in accordance with
these instructions and in the manner
intended for the particular type of
power tool, taking into account the
working conditions and the work to
be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by
a qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is
maintained.
