●
When working for a long time, the saw operator may experience formication and numbness in fingers
and hands. Stop working in such case, because numbness reduces precision in saw use.
●
It is forbidden to use open flame and smoke cigarettes.
●
Fill the fuel tank of the saw with petrol and oil blend when the engine is off and cooled down, otherwise
there is risk of spilling the blend and ignition from hot parts of the saw.
●
Do not start the saw when leakage is found, it may cause fire.
●
The saw heats considerably during operation. Be careful and do not touch hot parts of the saw with
unprotected parts of your body.
●
Only one person can operate the chain saw at a time. All other persons shall be away from working area
of the chain saw. Especially children and animals should be away from working area.
●
When starting the saw, its chain must not rest on the processed material or touch anything else.
●
When working with the chain saw hold it with both hands by both handles. Keep firm body position.
●
Children and juveniles cannot operate the chain saw. Allow access to the saw only to adults who know
how to handle the tool. This instruction manual should be given with the chain saw.
●
Stop working with the chain saw with first signs of fatigue.
●
Before starting to cut set the chain brake lever in appropriate position (pull it to yourself ). It is also hand
guard.
●
Move chain saw away from the material being cut only when the cutting chain is working.
●
When cutting processed sawn wood or thin branches use support (sawing horse). Do not cut several boards
at the same time (placed one on top of another), or material held by other person or held with foot.
●
Long objects should be firmly fixed before cutting.
●
In uneven, sloping terrain proceed with your work when facing upwards.
●
When cutting through always use the bumper spike as a point of support. Hold the saw by the rear
handle and guide with the front handle.
●
In case the cut cannot be completed in one run, pull the saw a little back, put the bumper spike in
another place and continue the cut lifting rear handle slightly.
●
When cutting in horizontal plane, position yourself at an angle as close to 90º from cutting line as
possible. Such operation requires concentration.
●
When the chain is pinched when cutting with the tip of the bar, the saw may recoil towards operator.
Because of this effect cut with the straight part of the chain whenever possible. Then, in case of pinching,
the recoil effect changes direction away from the operator.
●
Be very careful when cutting wood when there is the risk of splitting. Pieces of wood that are cut off can
be flung in any direction (risk of body injury!).
●
Only trained persons should cut tree branches!
of body injury!
●
Do not cut with tip of the guide bar (
●
Pay special attention to branches under strain. Do not cut branches, which hangs freely, from below.
●
Always stand to the side of predicted fall line of the tree that is to be cut.
●
During a tree fell there is a risk that branches of the tree, or trees in proximity, will break and fall. Be very
careful, otherwise a body injury may occur.
●
On a sloped terrain the operator should stay on upper part of the slope with respect to the tree being
cut, never lower.
●
Watch out for logs that may roll down towards you.
●
Operating saw tends to rotate when tip of the chain guide bar touches processed material. In such case
the saw may get out of control and move towards the operator (risk of body injury!).
●
The tree cuttings should be preceded with preparation of the work place consisting of the removal of
lower interfering branches and clearing the area around the tree trunk.
●
Do not work in strong wind, which may influence the predicted tree falling direction and cause its
uncontrolled felling.
●
Do not carry out cuttings in conditions of limited visibility, when it is foggy, rains or snows.
●
Do not overreach and do not cut above your shoulder height, or when standing on a tree, ladder, scaffold,
trunk, etc.
●
A well-equipped first aid kit should be available near the work place.
To prevent saw recoil follow below instructions:
Uncontrolled fall of a tree branch constitutes a risk
risk of recoil).
Jump away!
