46. Danger! Your power tool is not insulated against
electric shock. To reduce the risk of
electrocution, never operate this power tool in
the vicinity of any wires or cables (power, etc.)
which may be carrying electric current.
47. The power tools are equipped with a catalytic
converter, which is designed to reduce the
exhaust emissions of the engine by a chemical
process in the muffler. Due to this process, the
muffler does not cool down as rapidly as
conventional mufflers when the engine returns
to idle or is shut off. To reduce the risk of fire
and burn injuries, the following specific safety
precautions must be observed.
48. To reduce the risk of severe or even fatal injury
from falling objects do not cut vertically above
your body. Hold the pole pruner at an angle of
not more than 60° from the horizontal level (see
picture). Objects may fall in unexpected
directions.
Do not stand directly underneath the limb being
cut!
49. Kickback may occur when the moving saw chain
near the upper quadrant of the bar nose contacts
a solid object or is pinched. The reaction of the
cutting force of the chain causes a rotational
force on the chainsaw in the direction opposite to
the chain movement. This may cause the bar to
move upward.
50.
To Avoid Kickback
: The best protection from kickback is to avoid kickback
situations:
Be aware of the location of the guide bar nose at all times.
Never let the nose of the guide bar contact any object. Do not cut limbs with
the nose of the guide bar. Be especially careful near wire fences and when
cutting small, tough limbs, which may easily catch the chain.
Cut only one limb at a time.
51.
Pull-in
: Pull-in occurs when the chain on the
bottom of the bar is suddenly stopped when
it is pinched, caught or encounters a foreign
object in the wood. The reaction of the chain
pulls the saw forward. Pull-in frequently
occurs when the chain is not rotating at full
speed before it contacts the wood.
