During operation
Holding and controlling the tool
Always hold the device by the handles with both hands during
operation. Close your fingers and thumbs around the handles.
Place your left hand on the front handle and your right hand on the
rear handle on the throttle. This also applies to left-handed users.
Always keep your hands in this position to keep your saw under
control.
Never try to operate your tool with one hand. Losing control of your
device can cause severe or fatal injury.
Always keep your balance and a secure footing to maintain control of your chainsaw.
Never work on a ladder, tree branch, or another unsafe surface. Never lift the device
above shoulder height. Do not bend forward too far. Use a lifting platform to work at the
height of more than 4.5 meters.
Special care is required when working on slippery surfaces (wet ground, snow) and on
steep, overgrown terrain. Watch out for hidden obstacles such as tree stumps, roots,
and puddles to avoid tripping. Remove fallen branches, undergrowth, and cuttings. Be
extremely careful when working on sloping or uneven ground.
Be extremely careful in wet and frosty conditions (rain, snow, ice). Interrupt work in the
event of wind, storm, or heavy rain.

blades despite idling adjustment.
If the chain is stuck, always switch off the engine before cleaning and make sure that
the chain is stationary.
Make sure that the saw-chain does not come into contact with foreign objects such as
