Use the fuel container approved by safety authorities.
There may be pressure inside the fuel container. Slowly loosen
the fuel cover until the internal pressure becomes equal to the
external pressure before removing the fuel cover.
Place the fuel container in an outdoor open area. Ensure the
safety while tightening the cover. Wipe the fuel outside the
Do not refuel when the engine is hot or running. Do not store
the machine with fuel in the fuel tank into the warehouse. Fire
may easily occur in case of fuel leakage.
Start Engine
3m
Remove the chain saw to a place at least 3m away from the
refueling point before starting the engine.
Others must not get close to the chain saw when the engine is
started or the chain saw is used for cutting. Bystanders or other
small animals must be kept outside the working area. Wood
must not be held by others in the cutting process.
The engine must not be started until the working area is cleaned,
a safe standing place is determined, and the safe retreat routine
for escape at the time of falling-off of the tree is selected.
Before starting the engine, check whether the chain saw contacts
with any object. The handle must be dry, without any gasoline,
oil or mixture thereof. Operate the machine in a well-ventilated
area, as the exhaust gas, oil mist (produced in lubrication of the
chain saw) and sawdust are harmful to your health.
Relocation of the machine
Use the approved guide plate
sleeve for handling the chain saw
elsewhere. Stop the engine, make
the guide plate and chain face
away from the body before
moving the chain saw.
Safety prevention of bounce
Warning
Danger
When the top or front end of the guide plate of the chain
saw contacts with an object, bounce may easily occur
at the time of breaking of trees and in case of extrusion
of the chain saw in the cutting process. Preventive
measures must be taken in advance.
If the top contacts with other objects, slight and quick return
response will occur, and the guide plate will rapidly bounce up
and down towards the operator (known as rotating bounce). If
the chain is twisted towards the guide plate, the guide plate will
suddenly bounce towards the operator (known as linear bounce).
Any kind of bounce will result in out-of-control of the chain
saw and serious injury caused by collision between the chain
moving rapidly and the body. The chain saw operator must take
measures to prevent accidents or casualties.
The basic knowledge of bounce can help to reduce or evaluate
emergencies which may easily result in accidents. When you
understand the causes of bounce, you can take measures to
prevent the front part of the guide plate without protection from
contacting with other objects or the ground.
