is very important that you read and understand the
contents of this operator’s manual.
• Under no circumstances may the design of the
product be modified without the permission of the
manufacturer. Do not use a product that appears to
have been modified by others and only use
accessories recommended for this product. Non-
authorized modifications and/or accessories can
result in serious personal injury or the death of the
operator or others.
• The inside of the muffler contain chemicals that may
be carcinogenic. Avoid contact with these elements
in the event of a damaged muffler.
• Long term inhalation of the engine’s exhaust fumes,
chain oil mist and sawdust can represent a health
risk.

Safety instructions for operation
WARNING: Read the warning instructions
that follow before you use the product.
• This top handle chainsaw is designed specifically for
tree surgery and maintenance in the tree. Due to the
special compact handle design (closely spaced
handles), there is an increased risk of losing control.
For this reason these special chainsaws should be
used only for work in a tree by persons who are
trained in special cutting and working techniques and
who are properly secured (lift bucket, ropes, safety
harness). Regular chainsaws (with wider spaced
handles) are recommended for all other cutting work
at ground level.
• Working in a tree requires the use of special cutting
and working techniques which must be observed in
order to reduce the increased risk of personal injury.
Never work in a tree unless you have received
specific, professional training for such work,
including training in the use of safety and other
climbing equipment, such as harnesses, ropes,
belts, climbing irons, snap hooks, carabiners,
etcetera.
• Never attempt to catch falling sections. Never cut in
the tree when you are only secured with one rope.
Always use two secured ropes.
• During critical felling operations, hearing protectors
should be lifted immediately when the sawing is
completed so that sounds and warning signals can
be heard.
• Before using this product you must understand the
effects of kickback and how to avoid them. Refer to
Kickback information on page 11
for instructions.
• Never use a product that is faulty. Carry out the
safety checks, maintenance and service instructions
described in this manual. Some maintenance and
service measures must be carried out by trained and
qualified specialists. Refer to
16
for instructions.
• Never use the product with visible damage to the
spark plug cap and ignition cable. A risk of sparking
arises, which can cause a fire.
• Never use the product if you are fatigued, while
under the influence of alcohol or drugs, medication
or anything that could affect your vision, alertness,
coordination or judgement.
• Do not use the product in bad weather such as
dense fog, heavy rain, strong wind, intense cold,
etcetera. Working in bad weather is tiring and often
brings added risks, such as icy ground,
unpredictable felling direction, etcetera.
• Faulty cutting equipment or the wrong combination
of guide bar and saw chain increases the risk of
