WARNING:
The vibration emission during actual
use of the power tool can differ from the declared val
-
ue(s) depending on the ways in which the tool is used
especially what kind of workpiece is processed.
WARNING:
Be sure to identify safety measures
to protect the operator that are based on an estima-
tion of exposure in the actual conditions of use (tak-
ing account of all parts of the operating cycle such
as the times when the tool is switched off and when
it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).

SAFETY WARNINGS
General power tool safety warnings
WARNING:
Read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specifications provided
with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instruc-
tions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
Cordless Chain saw safety warnings
1.
Keep all parts of the body away from the saw
chain when the chain saw is operating. Before
you start the chain saw, make sure the saw
chain is not contacting anything.
A moment of
inattention while operating chain saws may cause
entanglement of your clothing or body with the
saw chain.
2.
Always hold the chain saw with your right
hand on the rear handle and your left hand on
the front handle.
Holding the chain saw with a
reversed hand configuration increases the risk of
personal injury and should never be done.
3.
Hold the chain saw by insulated gripping sur-
faces only, because the saw chain may contact
hidden wiring.
Saw chains contacting a "live" wire
may make exposed metal parts of the chain saw
"live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
4.
Wear eye protection. Further protective equip-
ment for hearing, head, hands, legs and feet is
recommended.
Adequate protective equipment
will reduce personal injury from flying debris or
accidental contact with the saw chain.
5.
Do not operate a chain saw in a tree, on a lad-
der, from a rooftop, or any unstable support.
Operation of a chain saw in this manner could
result in serious personal injury.
6.
Always keep proper footing and operate the
chain saw only when standing on fixed, secure
and level surface.
Slippery or unstable surfaces
may cause a loss of balance or control of the
chain saw.
7.
When cutting a limb that is under tension, be
alert for spring back.
When the tension in the
wood fibres is released, the spring loaded limb
may strike the operator and/or throw the chain
saw out of control.
8.
Use extreme caution when cutting brush and sap-
lings.
The slender material may catch the saw chain
and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance.
9.
Carry the chain saw by the front handle with
the chain saw switched off and away from your
body. When transporting or storing the chain
saw, always fit the guide bar cover.
Proper
handling of the chain saw will reduce the likelihood
of accidental contact with the moving saw chain.
10.
Follow instructions for lubricating, chain
tensioning and changing the bar and chain.
Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may
either break or increase the chance for kickback.
11.
Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for pur-
poses not intended. For example: do not use
chain saw for cutting metal, plastic, masonry
or non-wood building materials.
Use of the
chain saw for operations different than intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
12.
Do not attempt to fell a tree until you have an
understanding of the risks and how to avoid
them.
Serious injury could occur to the operator or
bystanders while felling a tree.
13.
Causes and operator prevention of kickback:
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the
guide bar touches an object, or when the wood
closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden
reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and
back towards the operator. Pinching the saw chain
along the top of the guide bar may push the guide
bar rapidly back towards the operator. Either of
these reactions may cause you to lose control of
the saw which could result in serious personal
injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the safety
devices built into your saw. As a chain saw user,
you should take several steps to keep your cutting
jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of chain saw misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and
can be avoided by taking proper precautions as
given below:
•
Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and
fingers encircling the chain saw handles,
with both hands on the saw and position
your body and arm to allow you to resist
kickback forces.
Kickback forces can be
controlled by the operator, if proper precau-
tions are taken. Do not let go of the chain
saw.

•
Do not overreach and do not cut above
shoulder height.
This helps prevent unin-
tended tip contact and enables better control
of the chain saw in unexpected situations.
