GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure
to follow the warnings and instructions may result in
electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
INTENDED USE
This chainsaw is designed for cutting branches, trunks,
logs and beams of a diameter determined by the cutting
length of the guide bar. It is only designed to cut wood.
It is only to be used in an outdoor, domestic application
by adults.
Do not use the chainsaw for any purpose not listed above.
This chainsaw is not to be used for professional tree
services. It is not to be used by children or by persons
not wearing adequate personal protective equipment and
clothing.
RESIDUAL RISKS:
Even with the intended use of the appliance, there is other
risk which cannot be prevented. According to the type
and construction of the appliance, the following potential
hazards might happen:
Contact with exposed saw teeth of the saw chain
(cutting hazards).
Access to the rotating saw chain (cutting hazards).
Unforeseen, abrupt movement of the guide bar
(cutting hazards).
Flung out of parts from the saw chain (Cutting /
injection hazards).
Flung out of parts of the work piece.
Inhalation of work piece particles.
Skin contact with the fuel oil.
Loss of hearing, if no ear protection is used during
work.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term “power tool” in the warnings
refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
Keep work area clean and well lit
. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool
. Distractions can cause you
to lose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool.
Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under the
influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A lapse of
attention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing
protection used appropriately will reduce personal
injuries.
Prevent unintentional starting.
Ensure the switch is
in the off position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack and when picking up or carrying
the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the
switch or energizing power tools that have the switch
on invites accidents.
Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left
attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury.
Do not over-reach
. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power
tool in unexpected situations.
Dress properly.
Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts.
Loose clothes, jewellery or
long hair can be caught in moving parts.
If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used.
Use of dust
collection can reduce dust-related hazards.
