Safety Instructions For Multi Saws - Batavia Maxxpack 18V Mode D'emploi

g. Check the safe operating condition of
the Nexxsaw, in particular the guide bar
and the saw chain, before each
operation.
h. Always have a safe stand when working
with the saw.
i. Hold the machine firmly and securely
when switching on.
j. Make sure the guide bar and the saw
chain must be free when switched on
and must not come into contact with
the workpiece to be cut.
k. Keep your hands away from the sawing
area. Do not reach under the workpiece.
Contact with the saw chain may result
in injury.
l. Guide the Nexxsaw onto the workpiece
only when switched on. Otherwise there
is a risk of kickback if the saw chain
gets caught in the workpiece.
m. When sawing, the base plate must
always face against the workpiece. The
saw chain can become jammed and
lead to loss of control over the machine.
n. When the cut is completed, switch off
the machine and then pull the saw
chain out of the cut only after it has
come to a standstill. This way you can
avoid kickback.
o. Clamp the material to be processed
well. Do not support the workpiece with
your hand or foot. Do not touch objects
or the floor with the saw running. Dan-
ger of kickback.
p. When sawing converted timber and thin
branches always use a strong support,
such as a sawing trestle. Do not stack
timber pieces.
q. Before cutting logs, secure the logs in
position.
r. When working on sloping ground, make
sure to work facing upwards.
s. Be particularly careful when cutting
splintered wood. Splinters of wood can
be torn along by the saw chain and
increase the risk of injury!
t. Foreign objects such as nails, screws,
metal parts, sand, etc. lead to increased
wear on the guide bar and saw chain.
u. A blunt saw chain can cause overheat-
ing and damage to the motor.
v. Always pull out the battery when check-
ing the chain tension, to re-tighten it, to
mount the saw chain and to eliminate
faults! Also remove the battery if you do
not use the machine temporarily.
3. Safety instructions for multi
saws
General multi saw safety warnings:
3.1
a. Keep all parts of the body away from
the saw chain when the multi saw is
operating. Before you start the multi
saw, make sure the saw chain is not
contacting anything. A moment of
inattention while operating multi saws
may cause entanglement of your cloth-
ing or body with the saw chain.
b. Hold the multi saw by insulated grip-
ping surfaces only, because the saw
chain may contact hidden wiring. Saw
chains contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the multi
saw "live'" and could give the operator
an electric shock.
c. Wear eye protection. Further protec-
tive equipment for hearing, head,
hands, legs and feet is recommended.
Adequate protective equipment will
reduce personal injury from flying
debris or accidental contact with the
saw chain.
d. Always keep proper footing and oper-
ate the multi saw only when standing
on fixed, secure and level surface.
Slippery or unstable surfaces may
cause a loss of balance or control of the
multi saw.
e. When cutting a limb that is under ten-
sion, be alert for spring back. When
the tension in the wood fibres is
released, the spring loaded limb may
strike the operator and/or throw the
multi saw out of control.
f. Use extreme caution when cutting
brush and saplings. The slender mate-
rial may catch the saw chain and be
whipped toward you or pull you off
balance.
