1. FOR SAFE OPERATION
Please read this manual carefully to understand how this machine works.
1.1. You must not use this machine under the influence of drugs, alcohol, you must also not use it
under physical fatigue, sleep or under the influence of any medication, the cold or if you
do not feel able to use this machine as a result of other circumstances that result in you not being in
your full faculties and , therefore, you are not able to use the machine in a very correct and safe
way.
1.2. When using this chainsaw, you must wear appropriate clothing and
the following protections:
1 - Helmet
2 - Protective metal face mask
3 - Anti-vibration work gloves
4 - Non-slip safety boots
5 - Hearing protectors
Never use your chainsaw in shorts or short-sleeved shirts with light, loose-fitting clothing or bare-
foot.
1.3. Keep the chainsaw chain aligned, check the good condition of the guide bar and the anti-vibra-
tion system, as well as the chain brake. A dull chain will require more cutting time and pressing the
machine more against the log with a worn chain will increase the vibrations of the chain.
A saw with loose components or with damaged or worn Anti-Vibration (AV) system will tend to
have a higher level of vibration and can cause an accident to the operator and cause
serious injury, even death.
1.4. Handle fuel with extreme care. Wipe up any spilled fuel
immediately. Move the chainsaw at least 3 meters away from the fuel filling location
before starting the engine.
