WARNING
Beware of the following:
• Rotary recoil (Fig. 14)
A = Recoil distance / B = Recoil reaction zone
• Impact/Jamming recoil and pulling reactions (Fig. 15)
A = Pull / B = Solid objects / C = Push
• To prevent pulling reactions, place the wood you wish to cut against the spiked
bumper (12). Use the spiked bumper as a pivot point during cutting.
• Make sure that the chainsaw cannot swing through at the end of the cut due to
its own weight. If it is no longer supported in the cut, hold something appropri-
ate against it.

Important notices
1)
Turn off the engine if the saw comes in contact with foreign objects. Check the
saw and, if applicable, repair it.
2)
Protect the chain from dirt and sand. Even small quantities of dirt can quickly
make the chain blunt and increase the risk of kickback.
3)
Start by cutting up smaller logs to practise in order to get a feel for the device,
before attempting difficult tasks.
4)
Activate the throttle at maximum, before starting sawing.
5)
Press the casing of the chainsaw against the log when starting sawing.
6)
Run the device at full throttle throughout the whole sawing process.
7)
Let the saw do the work. Only use slight downwards pressure.
8)
Release the throttle as soon as you have finished your work so the motor runs
idle. If you let the machine run at full throttle without load, there will be
unnecessary wear and tear.
9)
So that you do not lose control of the device after the chain exits the wood, you
should not apply any pressure to the saw towards the end of the cut.
10)
Turn off the device before putting it down.
11)
Check after starting the idle setting. The cutting blade must be stationary
during idling.
