saw rebound towards the operator. The chain saw can bounce in the direction of the operator in the case, when the cutting chain
hits a resistance.
To minimize this risk you should:
Pay attention to the location of the peak of guide when cutting. It is forbidden to cut with the top quarter of the guide (IX).
You should cut only with the chain, which moves across the bottom part of the guide. When you are cutting wood, you can use
the lower bumper tooth as a hook of the axis of chain saw rotation (X).
For the cut wood you should apply only the chain saw, which is already running. Do not start the chain saw after the it is applied
to the processed wood.
During work do not raise the chain saw at the height shoulders or above (XI).
Do not stand in the cutting plane. This will reduce the risk of injury when the chain saw rebounds (XII)
Always, during working, you should hold the chain saw with both hands.
Make sure, the chain is always sharpened and properly tight.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR WORKING WITH THE SAW
When cutting you should the comfortable position and ensure full freedom of movement.
When cutting branches and boughs you should not cut them close to the trunk, but at a distance of about 15 cm from the trunk.
You should make two incisions on the depth equal to 1/3 the branch diameter about 8 cm apart. One incision from the bottom, the
second from the top. Then cut a branch right next to the trunk to a depth equal to 1/3 the diameter of the branch. Finish cutting by
cutting the branch next to the trunk from the top. It is forbidden to cut branches by cutting them upwards (XIII).
When you cut wood you should prepare place for cutting in the manner described above. In addition, you should prepare a safe
background when you cut trees. During the fall of tree you must stand at a safe distance aside to the plane of the tree fall. When
selecting the way of the tree fall you should consider such factors such as terrain shape, center of tree gravity, the distribution of
the crown of the tree and the wind direction. To properly prepare the tree for its cutting, you should perform an incision in the trunk
to a depth of 1/3 of the trunk diameter, on the side, in which you expect the tree to fall, and then cut another incision at 45 degrees
to the first. So, to cut from the trunk a "wedge". The you should, from the other side of the trunk, start cutting perpendicular to the
trunk axis, slightly higher (about 4 cm) than the base of cut "the wedge". You should not cut the trunk. You should leave a section
of length equal to about 1/10 of the trunk diameter. Then enter the wedge to split trees in the cut located on the opposite side to
the planned site of the tree fall (XIV).
If in the course of cutting the fall of the tree happens, then you should pull the chain saw out of the trunk and depart through earlier
prepared escape route for a safe distance.
In the case when the chain saw is wedged during cutting the trunk, you should never left it with running engine in this position.
You should switch off the chain saw motor, disconnect the chain saw from its power supply and remove the chain saw from the
trunk by using wedges.
When you partition a cut down tree into pieces you should observe the following recommendations. Place the wood on sawing
jack or on stands, so the cut off piece can fall freely on the ground without causing the wedging of chain saw. In the case of
chain saw wedging, you should proceed as it is described above. It is forbidden to touch soil with the chain saw or to allow for its
contamination by soil.
It is forbidden to use of the chain saw to hedge forming or cutting of shrubs.
When you are working on a slope you should remain above the cut wood.
When cutting a tensioned tree you should exercise extreme caution and, if it is possible, entrust this activity to a qualified lumber-
jack. When you are cutting the wood, which is tensioned and supported at both ends, you must cut it from its top to a depth equal
of its 1/3 in diameter, and then finish its cutting from the bottom.
In the case when the wood is supported at only one end, you should cut the wood from its bottom to a depth equal of its 1/3 in
diameter, and then finish its cutting from the top (XV).
In this way you will reduce the risk of chain saw deadlock during cutting.
Safety recommendations for battery loading
Attention! Before loading may start make sure the body of the charger, the cable and the plug are not broken or damaged. It
is prohibited to use a damaged loading dock and charger! For the purpose of loading batteries only the charging dock and the
charger provided may be used. Using another charger may be a cause of fire or damage the tool. Batteries may be charged only
in a dry room, protected from unauthorised persons, particularly children. Do not use the charging dock and the charger without
permanent supervision of an adult! If it is necessary to leave the room where loading is taking place, it is required to disconnect the
charger from the mains, removing the charger from the mains socket. In case when smoke comes out of the charger, or a strange
smell is emitted, etc., it is required to immediately remove the plug of the charger from the mains socket!
The drill and automatic return screwdriver is provided with an unloaded battery, so before work may commence, it is required
to charge it following the procedure below, using the charger and charging dock provided. Li-ION batteries do not show the so
called "memory effect", so it is allowed to charge them at any moment. However, it is recommended to discharge them during
normal work, and then load them to their full capacity. If due to the nature of the task it is not possible to do so each time, then it
is required to do it at least from time to time. Under no circumstances is it allowed to discharge the batteries short-circuiting the
electrodes, since this would cause irreversible damage! It is also prohibited to check the load of the batteries, short-circuiting the
electrodes for sparking.
