logs. This also helps you get accustomed to your unit.
Always follow all the safety regulations which can restrict
the use of the machine. The chain saw must only be
used for cutting wood. It is forbidden to cut other types
of material. Vibrations and kickback vary with different
materials and the requirements of the safety regulations

lock it over fixed stands. It is forbidden to hitch tools or
applications to the P.t.o. that are not specified by the
manufacturer.

caught in the cut, do not attempt to pull it out by force,
but use a wedge or a lever to open the cut.

each usage by running the saw at full throttle for 1 or 2
