Prevent Operator Kickback; Symbols On The Product; Risk Levels - GreenWorks Pro CS60L03 Manual Del Operador

EN
• Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning
and changing accessories. Improperly tensioned or
lubricated chain may either break or increase the chance
for kickback.
• Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
Greasy, oily handles are slippery, causing loss of control.
• Cut wood only. Do not use chainsaw for purposes not
intended. For example: do not use chainsaw for
cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood building
materials. Use of the chainsaw for operations other than
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
4 PREVENT OPERATOR
KICKBACK
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar
touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches the
saw chain in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden reverse
reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the
operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may
push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator.
Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the
saw which could result in serious personal injury. Do not rely
exclusively upon the safety devices built into your saw. As a
chainsaw user, you should take several steps to keep your
cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by
taking proper precautions as given below:
• Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers
encircling the chainsaw handles, with both hands on
the saw and your body and arm positioned to allow
you to resist kickback forces.
Kickback forces can be controlled by the operator, if
proper precautions are taken. Do not let go of the
chainsaw.
• Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder
height. This helps prevent unintended tip contact and
enables better control of the chainsaw in unexpected
situations.
• Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the
manufacturer. Incorrect replacement bars and chains
may cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
• Follow the manufacturer's sharpening and
maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to increased
kickback.
