English
machine starts to vibrate strangely, turn it off and
examine it to find the cause. If you do not detect the
reason, take your machine to the technical service.
Vibrations are always an indication of a problem in the
machine.
Stop the engine every time you leave the machine.
Reduce the engine speed when the engine is to shut
down, if the engine is equipped with a fuel shut-off
valve, cut the fuel when the engine has stopped.
2.6.1. IMPREVED REACTION FORCES WHILE
WORKING WITH THE MOWER
Always keep your attention while cutting with the
mower and be aware of possible unforeseen reaction
forces. The unforeseen reaction forces that occur in
a mower are rebound and recoil. These forces can
unbalance the user and cause dangerous situations.
2.6.1.1. REBOUND
A rebound of the mower may occur if an object is
touched with the cutting chain in the area of the tip
of the bar while it is running. The contact of the chain
at the tip of the bar can cause an unexpected reaction
force that can drive the tip of the bar backward
generating a movement in the rotary mower that can
cause loss of control of the machine and cause severe
body damage.
2.6.1.2. FORWARD PULL
A "forward pull" can occur when the chain stops
abruptly when it is caught in the cutting area with
a foreign body that is in the wood or because it is
not cut properly. The chain, when stopped, pushes
the mower forward which, if it is not properly secured,
produces an unexpected pull that can cause the user
to lose control of the mower, cause it to fall forward
and cause severe bodily damage.
To avoid this "forward pull", the full gas cutting will
begin and will always keep the machine at full speed
during the cutting by gripping the machine firmly with
both hands.
2.6.1.3. RECOIL
The imprisonment of the saw chain on the top of
the sword can quickly push the sword back towards
the operator. The chain, when stopped, pushes the
mower backwards (Recoil) which, if it is not correctly
held against the branch produces an unexpected push
that can cause the user to lose control of the mower,
make it fall back and cause severe bodily damage.
Any of these reactions can cause you to lose control
of the saw that could lead to a serious bodily accident.
Do not rely exclusively on the safety devices integrated
in your mower. As a mower user, you should take
steps to eliminate the risk of accidents or injuries in
your cutting work.
These reaction forces result from misuse of the tool
and / or improper operating procedures or conditions
and can be avoided by taking the appropriate
precautions specified below:
• Hold the saw firmly with both hands with your
thumbs and fingers enclosing the grip of the saw
and position your body and arms to allow it to resist
unexpected forces. Unexpected forces can be
controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are
taken. Do not release the chain saw.
• Do not extend your arms too far. This helps prevent
involuntary contact of the limb and allows better
control of the mower in unforeseen situations.
• Always be aware of where the tip of the chain bar
is.
• Pay attention so that the tip of the bar does not
touch any object.
• Do not cut branches with the tip of the bar.
• Ensure that there is no nail or piece of metal in the
