Starting the tool (Img. 6)
1. The chain brake handle must be in its pulled back position.
2. Hold the saw firmly with both hands.
3. Press in the switch lock button (1).
4. Press in the power switch (2).
5. The chain saw starts.
6. The lock button can be released when the chain saw starts.
SAWING
Correct working posture (Img. 7)
• Always maintain a firm footing and good balance.
• Never saw above shoulder height. Do not overreach.
• Never use the chain saw from a ladder, tree or other unstable place.
• Do not use the chain saw in bad weather conditions or in the dark.
• Stand with both feet firmly on the ground.
• Pay attention to any obstructions in your work area.
• Hold the chain saw firmly with both hands when working.
Kickback (Img. 8 - 9)
Kickback can occur if the tip or topside of the
guide
bar comes into contact with wood or other solid objects. The
chain
saw then “kicks back”,
which can cause
serious and/or fatal personal injury.
• Always check before use that the chain brake is working properly.
• Do not allow the tip of the
guide
bar to make contact with wood or other solid objects.
• The chain brake may not be applied automatically in the event of minor kickback. For this reason, always hold the chain saw firmly with both hands.
The correct and careful way of working is the only reliable method of reducing the risk of kickback.
Overcutting (Img. 10)
With this technique sawing takes place with the underside of the
guide
bar, in a downwards motion, so that the chain pulls the saw forward, away from the
user. This allows the front of the saw to provide support and absorb the force from the wood being sawn.
Undercutting (Img. 11)
With this technique sawing takes place with the topside of the
guide
bar, in an upwards motion, so that the chain pushes the saw backwards towards the
user.
If
the guide
bar twists
,
the chainsaw can
bounce
back towards the user with great force.
If the user does not withstand the pushing force of the
chain
saw there is a risk of the tip of the
guide
bar coming into contact with the
wood, which can
cause kickback.
Tree felling
Caution! Risk of personal injury!
• Felling and limbing should only be carried out by qualified personnel – risk of fatal and/or serious personal injury.
• Always stand to the side of the tree being felled – risk of fatal and/or serious personal injury.
Check the following points before felling trees:
• Check that there are no people or animals in the work area.
• Check that everyone involved in the work has a clear retreat from the felling area. The retreat should run at an angle from the direction of fall. (Img. 12)
• Check that the area around the tree is free from obstructions that can be tripped over.
• Check that the nearest workplace is at least 2.5 times the tree height away. Check the direction in which the tree is going to fall and make sure there are no
people, animals or obstacles within at least 2.5 times the tree height.
Tree felling takes place in two steps (Img. 13).
2. Saw the felling cut (A) from the other side of the tree, 3–5 cm above the bottom of the notch cut. Always leave holding wood (C), which acts as a hinge.
Never saw all the way through the trunk.
Study the technique of working with chainsaws. It is recommended that users have received appropriate training before using the chainsaw. The information
on cutting techniques contained in this manual is only intended as a supplement.
