Warning! Always carry the saw by the front
handle. If the saw is plugged in and you carry it by
the rear handle (which is where the switches are
located), then there is a risk that you could acci-
dentally press the safety lock-off and the ON/OFF
switch at the same time, and the chainsaw could
inadvertently start up.

6.3 Safety devices

Motor brake
The motor brakes the saw chain as soon as the
ON/OFF switch (Fig. 1/Item 6) is released or the
power supply is interrupted. This signifi cantly
reduces the risk of injury that would otherwise be
present if the chain continued to run after being
switched off or disconnected.
Chain brake
The chain brake is a safety mechanism which is
triggered via the front hand guard (Fig. 1/Item 2).
If kickback causes the chainsaw to suddenly jerk
back then the chain brake trips and stops the saw
chain in less than 0.1 seconds. You must check
the operation of the chain brake on a regular ba-
sis. To do this, fold the hand guard (Fig. 1/Item 2)
forward and briefl y switch the chainsaw on. The
saw chain must not start up.
Pull back the front hand guard (Fig. 1/Item 2) until
it engages to release the chain brake.
Danger! Never use the saw if the safety equip-
ment is not working properly. Never try to repair
safety related protection systems yourself – al-
ways have any work done by our service depart-
ment or by a similarly qualifi ed workshop.
Hand guard
The front hand guard (which also acts as the
chain brake at the same time) (Fig. 1/Item 2)
and the rear hand guard (Fig. 2/ Item 14) protect
against fi nger injuries resulting from contact with
the saw chain if the chain breaks because it is
overloaded.

7. Working with the chainsaw

7.1 Preparations
To ensure that you can work safely, check the fol-
lowing points before every use:
Condition of the chain saw
Inspect the chainsaw before the start of work for
damage to the housing, the power cable, the saw
chain and the cutter rail. Never use a chainsaw
which is obviously damaged.
Oil container
Fill level of the oil container. Even while working,
keep checking that suffi cient oil is in the system.
To avoid damaging the chainsaw, never run the
saw if there is no oil in the system or if the oil
drops below the "min" mark (Fig. 10/Item B).
On average, a single fi lling will last around 15
minutes depending on the number of pauses in
cutting and the loads involved.
Saw chain
Tension of the saw chain, condition of the cutting
elements. The sharper the chainsaw, the easier
and more controllable it is to operate the chain-
saw. The same also applies to the chain tension.
Again, while working also check the chain tension
every 10 minutes in order to increase your safety.
New saw chains in particular often tend to expand
more.
Chain brake
Check the operation of the chain brake as de-
scribed in the chapter "Safety devices" and then
release it.
Safety clothing
Always wear appropriate tight-fi tting safety
clothing like special trousers which protect
against cuts, protective gloves and safety shoes.
