Intended use
The tool is intended for cutting lumbers and logs.
Power supply
The tool should be connected only to a power supply of
the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can
only be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are
double-insulated in accordance with European Standard
and can, therefore, also be used from sockets without
earth wire.
For public low-voltage distribution systems of
between 220 V and 250 V.
Switching operations of electric apparatus cause voltage
fluctuations. The operation of this device under unfavor-
able mains conditions can have adverse effects to the
operation of other equipment. With a mains impedance
equal or less than 0.35 Ohms it can be presumed that
there will be no negative effects. The mains socket used
for this device must be protected with a fuse or protective
circuit breaker having slow tripping characteristics.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES
1. Read the instruction manual in order to familiarize
yourself with operation of the chain saw.
2. Before using the chain saw for the first time,
arrange to have instruction in its operation. If this
is not possible, at least practice cutting round tim-
ber on a trestle before beginning work.
3. The chain saw must not be used by children or
young persons under 18 years of age. Young per-
sons over 16 years of age may be exempted from
