6.3 Connecting to the mains supply
•
Connect the power cable to a suitable extension cable. Make sure
that the extension cable is designed for the power rating of the
chainsaw.
•
Secure the extension cable as shown in Fig. 14 to protect it
against pulling forces and accidental disconnection.
•
Connect the extension cable to a professionally installed safety
mains outlet with ground contact. We recommend using a cable
with a bright and highly visible color, e.g. red or yellow. This will re-
duce the risk of accidentally damaging it with the chainsaw.
6.4 On/Off switch
Switching on
•
Hold the chainsaw by the handles with both hands (thumbs under
the additional handle).
•
Press and hold the safety lock-off (Fig. 14/Item R).
•
To switch on the chainsaw, activate the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 14/
Item 3). You can then release the safety lock-off.
Switching off
Release the ON/OFF switch (Fig. 14/Item 3). Always disconnect the
mains plug when you stop working, even if it is only for a short time.
7. Working with the chainsaw
Preparations
To ensure that you can work safely, check the following points before
every use and in the event of any damage:
Condition of the chainsaw
Inspect the chainsaw before the start of work for damage to the
housing, the power cable, the saw chain and the cutter rail. Never use
a chainsaw which is obviously damaged. - Danger of accident!
