CSG-670 TYPE1-E

   

Read this cut-off saw operator’s manual carefully. Be sure you understand
how to operate this saw properly before you use it.

Establish a training program for cut-off saw operators.

Use safety footwear, snug-fitting clothing and protective gloves.

Wear eye, hearing and head protection devices. Use ballistics chaps or
pants when necessary. Clothing of fire-resistant and unmeltable material
should be worn by emergency crews exposed to flames or high heat
conditions.

Use caution when handling fuel. Put the gas caps back tightly on both the
gas can and the saw tank, move at least 3 m (10 feet) from the fueling point,
and be sure there is no leakage of fuel from the gas cap or the fuel system
before starting the engine. Avoid ignition from sparks.

   DANGER

After refueling tighten fuel cap firmly and check for leakage. In case
of fuel leakage repair before starting operation since there is a
danger of fire.

IMPORTANT

Check before every use.

After refueling, make sure fuel does not leak from around fuel pipe, fuel
grommet or fuel tank cap.

In case of fuel leakage there is a danger of fire. Stop using the machine
immediately and request your dealer to inspect or replace.

It is not permitted to fill fuel above the shoulder level of fuel tank.

Operate this gasoline engine saw only in well-ventilated areas.

Do not cause sparks in any area where there are flammable materials.

Start the saw on the ground with the cutting wheel completely in the clear.
Do not drop-start the saw, or start it if the wheel is obstructed by the ground
or any other object.

Do not allow other persons to be nearer than 9 m (30 feet) when you are
starting or cutting with the saw. Be aware that bystanders should wear
hearing and eye protection. Do not start cutting unless you have good
footing and the work area is clear.

Do not let someone hold the work you are cutting.

Adjust the wheel shield to a position where the sparks and debris from the
wheel will be thrown away from you. Do not operate if the wheel shield is
damaged, missing from the unit, improperly positioned, or cannot be locked
in proper position.

Keep a firm grip on the saw with both hands, the right hand on the rear
handle, and the left hand on the front handle when the engine is running.
Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the saw handles. A firm
grip will help you to keep control if the saw kickback toward you, or the
thrust of the rotating wheel pulls it away from you. Never operate the saw
with only one hand.
