Proper handling of the saw will reduce
the likelihood of accidental contact with
the moving saw chain.
h. Follow instructions for lubricating,
chain tensioning and changing the bar
and chain. Improperly tensioned or
lubricated chain may either break or
increase the chance for kick-back.
i.
Cut wood only. Do not use saw for
purposes not intended. For example:
do not use saw for cutting metal, plas-
tic, masonry or non-wood building
materials. Use of the saw for opera-
tions different than intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
j.
This saw is not intended for tree fell-
ing. Use of the saw for operations dif-
ferent than intended could result in
serious injury to the operator or
bystanders.
4. Causes and operator prevention
of kick-back
a. Kick-back 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.
b. Tip contact in some cases may cause a
sudden reverse reaction, kicking the
guide bar up and back towards the
operator.
c.
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 saw user, you
should take several steps to keep your
cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
d. (See Fig. B). Kick-back is the result of
saw misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions and can be
avoided by taking proper precautions as
given below:

• Maintain a firm grip, with thumb and
fingers encircling the saw handle and
position your body and arm to allow you
to resist kick-back forces. Kick-back
forces can be controlled by the operator,
if proper precautions are taken. Do not
let go of the saw.
• Only use replacement guide bars and
saw chains specified by the manufac-
turer. Incorrect replacement guide bars
and saw chains may cause chain break-
age and/or kick-back.
• Follow the manufacturer's sharpening
and maintenance instructions for the
saw chain. Decreasing the depth gauge
height can lead to increased kick-back.
5. Before the first use
Remove the machine and all accessories
from the package. Keep the packaging
materials out of the reach of small children.
There is a danger of suffocation!

7. Intended use
• The Nexxsaw has been exclusively
designed for cutting branches. The saw
is not intended for continuous commer-
cial use.
• The intended use also includes an opera-
tion following the operating instructions.
• In conjunction with the extension handle,
the Nexxsaw can be used as a pruner for
cutting branches.
• Any use beyond these parameters (differ-
ent media, applying force) or any
changes (reconstruction, no original
accessory) can lead to serious risks and
is regarded as use that is contrary to the
intended purpose.
