While working
In the event of impending danger or in
an emergency, switch off the engine
immediately by moving the slide control
/ stop switch/button to 0 or STOP.
This power tool is not
insulated. Keep at least
15 m away from electric
power lines – Danger of
fatal electric shock!
15m (50ft)
Do not allow other persons within a
radius of 15 m of your own position due
to falling branches and ejected wood
particles – Risk of injury! This distance
must also be maintained in relation to
objects (vehicles, window panes) – risk
of property damage!
Keep the bar nose at least 15 m away
from electric power lines . Electric
current may also arc over from high-
voltage cables at greater distance. Have
the power switched off before starting
work in the immediate vicinity of power
lines.
Ensure that the engine idling speed is
correct. The saw chain must not move
when the throttle trigger has been
released.
Check and correct the idle speed setting
at regular intervals. If the saw chain still
rotates, have your dealer check your
machine and make proper adjustments
or repairs – see the user manual of the
KombiEngine.
Take special care in slippery, wet
conditions, in snow and on slopes,
uneven ground, etc. – Risk of slipping!
The gear head becomes
hot during operation. To
reduce the risk of burn
injury, do not touch the
gear housing!
Watch out for obstacles: tree stumps,
roots – risk of tripping or stumbling!
Make sure you always have good
balance and secure footing.
When working at heights:
Always use a lift bucket
–
Never use the machine while
–
standing on a ladder or in a tree
Never work on an insecure support
–
Never use the machine with just one

hand
Be particularly alert and cautious when
wearing hearing protection because
your ability to hear warnings (shouts,
alarms, etc.) is restricted.
