– Slowly press down on the throttle to
increase the motor speed.
The clutch will be released when the motor
speed is high enough, and the sawing chain
will start to rotate.
– Make sure the chain is sufficiently lubri-
cated (
– Check if the chain stops rotating when
you release the throttle.
Turning off the motor
– Release the throttle.
– Set ignition switch to
[0]
.
The motor switches off.
Adjust chain greasing
The factory-set lubrication quantity should
be changed in exception cases (e.g. in par-
ticular high load).
– Adjust adjustment screw (22) depending
on application area of the saw.
MIN = light work over longer time period e.g.
keying, sawing of small wood
MAX = heavy work over longer time period
e.g. only cutting down trees, sawing of large
quantity of hardwood
Notes on operation
Before use, familiarize yourself sufficiently
with the sawing technique for chain saws.
You will find information about this in the
trade literature. We recommend that you
attend suitable training sessions. The notes
here serve only as a complement!
Correct posture
Stand with both legs securely on the ground.
Heed obstacles in the work area.
While you are working, always hold the
device fast with both hands!
Hold the device:
• with the left hand on the handle
• with the right hand on the handle
• balanced in a secure position.
Here’s how to saw correctly!
– Search the work area and remove objects
which are in your way.
– When you begin work, check the safety of
– Starting the motor (
– Take the device in both hands as
instructed (
– Push the throttle through carefully.
Always saw with sufficient speed!
Risk of rebound!
Rebounds occur if the upper edge or tip of
the saw rail touch wood or other hard
objects. The device is thrown with high
energy back and forth, which can cause
extremely severe injuries.
Avoid letting the area of the saw rail depicted
on the right touch wood or other hard
objects.
In order to reduce the risk of injury in case of
a rebound, the device is equipped with a
chain brake which is triggered automatically
on impact and which stops the saw chain
immediately.
For safety reasons, the functionality of the
chain brake must be checked each time the
device is used (
brake – p. 17).
With less strong rebounds, it can happen
that the chain brake is not triggered automat-
ically. For this reason it is important that the
device be held fast with both hands.
DANGER! Risk of injury!
–Never
work on unstable subsurfaces!
– Never work above shoulder
height!
– Never work while standing on a
ladder!
– Do not work bent too far forward!
– Only use the device under favour-
able weather and site conditions!
DANGER! Risk of injury!
Always
switch the motor off before you put
the device down!
DANGER! Risk of injury!
When
working with the device, dangerous
rebounds may occur! Severe or even
fatal injuries can be the result!
Before beginning work with the
device, the chain brake must be
checked to ensure that it is function-
ing correctly!
