Only a careful and correct working
method can reduce the risk of a rebound
reliably!
Basic work technique
Before each use
1. Check the chain brake to ensure it
is functioning correctly.
2. Check the rear hand guard for damage.
3. Check the switch-on safety lock and
start button to ensure they are
functioning cor- rectly.
4. Check whether all handles are free of oil.
5. Check whether all parts of the device
are present, firmly attached and
undamaged.
6. Check the chain catcher for damage.
7. Check the chain tensioning.
Sawing technique
Pulling sawing
With this technique, sawing occurs with
the underside of the saw rail from above
down- wards. The saw chain thus pushes
the device forwards away from the user.
This way, the front edge of the device
forms a support, which catches the forces
which arise on the tree trunk when
sawing.
With pulling sawing, the user has much
more control over the device and can
avoid rebounds better. Therefore, this is
the pre- ferred sawing technique.
