Service; Chainsaw Safety Warnings - Oregon CS1200-092 Manual Original De Instrucciones

• Use the power tool, accessories and
tool bits, etc. in accordance with these
instructions 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.
• Keep handles and grasping surfaces
dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not
allow for safe handling and control of the tool
in unexpected situations.

Service

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.

Chainsaw Safety Warnings

• Keep all parts of the body away from
the saw chain when the chainsaw is
operating. Before you start the chainsaw,
make sure the saw chain is not contacting
anything. A moment of inattention while
operating chainsaws may cause entanglement
of your clothing or body with the saw chain.
• Always hold the chainsaw with your right
hand on the rear handle and your left
hand on the front handle (Fig. ). Holding
the chainsaw with a reversed hand
configuration increases the risk of personal
injury and should never be done.

• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because saw chain may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Chainsaw Model CS1200-092
Important Safety Information
Saw chains contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live"
and could give the operator an electric shock.
• Wear safety glasses and hearing
protection. Further protective equipment
for head, hands, legs, and feet is
recommended. Adequate protective clothing
will reduce personal injury by flying debris or
accidental contact with the saw chain.
• Do not operate a chainsaw in a tree.
Operation of a chainsaw while up in a tree may
result in personal injury.
• Always keep proper footing and operate
the chainsaw only when standing on a
fixed, secure and level surface. Slippery
or unstable surfaces may cause a loss of
balance or control of the chainsaw.
• When cutting a limb that is under tension,
be alert for spring back. When the tension
in the wood fibres is released, the spring
loaded limb may strike the operator and/or
throw the chainsaw out of control.
• Use extreme caution when cutting brush
and saplings. The slender material may
catch the saw chain and be whipped toward
you or pull you off balance.
• Carry the chainsaw by the front handle
with the chainsaw switched off and away
from your body. When transporting or
storing the chainsaw, always fit the guide
bar cover (Fig. ). Proper handling of the
chainsaw will reduce the likelihood of
accidental contact with the moving saw chain.
