- Only move at walking speed.
- Never leave the device unattended during breaks in work and store it in a safe place.
- Keep all parts of the body away from the chainsaw. Do not attempt to remove material to be cut or
hold material to be cut while the blade is running. Remove trapped material only when the machine
is switched off. A moment of carelessness while using the chainsaw can cause serious injury.
- Carry the chainsaw by the handle with the blade stationary. Always remove the battery when
transporting or storing the device. Careful handling of the device reduces the risk of injury from the
chainsaw.
- Hold the power tool only by its insulated grip surfaces, as the chainsaw may come into contact with
hidden power lines. Contact of the saw with a live wire can put metal parts of the tool under voltage
and cause electric shock.
- During the cutting process, make sure that no persons (especially children) or animals are in the
working area.
-While the saw is running, keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain. Before starting the
saw, make sure that the saw chain does not touch anything. When working with a chainsaw, a
moment of carelessness may cause clothing or body parts to be caught by the saw chain.
- Wear protective goggles and hearing protection. Other protective device for head, hands, legs and
feet is recommended. Suitable protective clothing reduces the risk of injury from flying chips and
accidental contact with the saw-chain.
- Do not work with the chainsaw when on a tree. There is a risk of injury when operating on a tree.
- Only use the device in dry weather conditions. Keep it away from rain or moisture.
- Always make sure that you stand firmly and only use the chainsaw when you are standing on firm,
safe and level ground. Slippery surfaces or unstable standing surfaces, such as on a ladder, can cause
loss of balance or loss of control of the saw.
- Make sure that the chainsaw does not come into contact with the ground or other objects during
operation.
-When cutting a branch that is under tension, expect it to spring back. If the tension in the wood
fibres is released, the tensioned branch may hit the operator and/or snatch the chainsaw away from
control.
- Be especially careful when cutting undergrowth and young trees. Thin material can get caught in
the saw-chain and strike you or throw you off balance.
- Wait until the power tool has stopped before putting it down.
- Never leave the device unattended during work interruptions and store it in a safe place.
