DANGER
Danger of injury!
Sawing and felling work as well as all related work
may only be carried out by specially trained and
briefed persons.
Notes:
Before switching on, make sure that the product does
not touch any objects.
Observe the country-specific regulations for felling work
and obtain information from the relevant authority.
• Make sure that no one can be harmed by the falling
branches and trees.
• Only the persons required for the felling work may
be in the work area.
• Keep the work area at the trunk clear and tidy so
that operators have a safe standing area.
• Keep escape routes clear and tidy in order to be
able to leave the work area quickly.
• Do not carry out felling work in stronger wind condi-
tions, bad weather or poor visibility.
• Keep distances to the nearest workplace of at least
2 1/2 tree lengths.
• Switch off the motor if the saw comes into contact
with a foreign object. Check the saw and repair it if
necessary.
• Protect the chain from dirt and sand. Even small
amounts of dirt can quickly dull the chain and in-
crease the risk of kickback.
