Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers
encircling the chain saw handles, with both

Do not overreach and do not cut above
shoulder height. This helps prevent unintended
tip contact and enables better control of the
chain saw in unexpected situations.
–
Only use replacement bars and chains speci-
fied by the manufacturer. Incorrect replace-
ment bars and chains may cause chain
breakage and/or kickback.
–
Follow the manufacturer's sharpening and
maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to
increased kickback.
13. Before starting work, check that the chain saw is in
proper working order and that its condition complies
with the safety regulations. Check in particular that:
•
The chain brake is working properly;
•
The run-down brake is working properly;
•
The bar and the sprocket cover are fitted
correctly;
•
The chain has been sharpened and tensioned in
accordance with the regulations;
14. Do not start the chain saw with the chain cover
being installed on it. Starting the chain saw with
the chain cover being installed on it may cause the
chain cover to thrown out forward resulting in
personal injury and damage to objects around the
operator.

you fill the chain oil.
6.
National regulation may restrict the use of the chain
saw.
7.
If the equipment gets heavy impact or fall, check the
condition before continuing work. Check the controls
and safety devices for malfunction. If there is any
damage or doubt, ask our authorized service center
for the inspection and repair.
8.
Always activate the chain brake before starting the
chain saw.
9.
Hold the saw firmly in place to avoid skating (skid
movement) or bouncing of the saw when starting a
cut.
10. At the end of the cut, be careful to keep your
balance due to the "drop".
11. Take into account the direction and speed of the
wind. Avoid sawdust and chain oil mist.
Protective equipment
1.
In order to avoid head, eye, hand or foot injuries
as well as to protect your hearing the following
protective equipment must be used during
operation of the chain saw:
–
The kind of clothing should be appropriate, i. e. it
should be tight-fitting but not be a hindrance. Do
not wear jewelry or clothing which could become
entangled with bushes or shrubs. If you have
long hair, always wear a hairnet!
–
It is necessary to wear a protective helmet when-
ever working with the chain saw. The protective
helmet is to be checked in regular intervals for
damage and is to be replaced after 5 years at
the latest. Use only approved protective helmets.
–
The face shield of the protective helmet (or the
goggles) protects against sawdust and wood
chips. During operation of the chain saw always
wear a goggle or a face shield to prevent eye
injuries.
–
Wear adequate noise protection equipment
(ear muffs, ear plugs, etc.)
–
The protective jacket consists of 22 layers of
nylon and protects the operator against cuts. It is
always to be worn when working from elevated
platforms (cherry pickers, lifts), from platforms
mounted on ladders or when climbing with
ropes.
–
The protective brace and bib overall is made
of a nylon fabric with 22 layers and protects
against cuts. We strongly recommend its use.
–
Protective gloves made of thick leather are part
are
of the prescribed equipment and must always be
worn during operation of the chain saw.
–
During operation of the chain saw safety shoes
or safety boots fitted with anti skid sole, steel
toe caps and protection for the leg must always
to be worn. Safety shoes equipped with a protec-
tive layer provide protection against cuts and
ensure a secure footing. For working in trees the
safety boots must be suitable for climbing tech-
niques.
