2 - SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
2.2 Tool operating precautions
•
Always hold the tool with both hands on the handles and make sure you are in a steady and safe work position.
•
Use the tool just for the aims indicated in ch. “Product description”. Any other kind of use may cause injuries.
•
Always check that the safety devices are perfectly efficient.
•
Transport the tool by keeping its bar (10) backwards, protected by the bar guard (32). The air hose must be disconnected
from the coupling (15).
•
Before starting the tool, make sure the chain (11) is not in contact with anything.
•
Hold the handles (7) and (17) with both hands tight (picture G).
•
When cutting, make the motor run at high speed.
•
Never cut higher than the operator’s shoulders.
•
Never cut branches having a diameter which is over 150 mm, if the bar is 8”, or over 200 mm, if the bar is 10” (picture N).
•
Follow the chain manufacturer’s instructions as for the chain (11) sharpening and maintenance.
•
Never use the tool if it is damaged, uncorrectly regulated or only partially assembled.
•
Be very careful when cutting bushes or small shrubs, since soft parts may get entangled in the chain and then may be
thrown against the operator, or they may make him loose his balance.
•
Be very careful with the handles (7) and (17). They must be always perfectly dry, clean and free from oil residues.
•
Check the oil level. It must always reach at least the half of the chain reservoir (26). Lack of oil causes chain seizing.
•
Be careful with the kickback effects due to upwards directed reaction movements of the bar (10). They may make the
operator loose his balance or the tool control (picture P).
SAFETY RULES ABOUT THE KICKBACK EFFECT
Kickback may be caused when the bar (10) top touches an object, or when some wood stops or crushes the chain (11)
during the cutting operations. In order to prevent from or reduce the kickback effect, hold the tool with both hands
tight.
