Right hand guard
The right hand guard is a protection for your hand on the
rear handle. The right hand guard gives you protection if
the saw chain breaks or derails. The right hand guard
also gives you protection from branches or twigs.
(Fig. 28)
Vibration damping system
Your product is equipped with a vibration damping
system that is designed to minimize vibration and make
operation easier. The product′s vibration damping
system reduces the transfer of vibration between the
engine unit/cutting equipment and the product′s handle
unit. The body of the chainsaw, including the cutting
equipment, is insulated from the handles by vibration
damping units.
Cutting hardwoods (most broadleaf trees) creates more
vibration than cutting softwoods (most conifers). Cutting
with cutting equipment that is blunt or faulty (wrong type
or badly sharpened) will increase the vibration level.
WARNING: Overexposure to vibration can
lead to circulatory damage or nerve damage
in people who have impaired circulation.
Contact your doctor if you experience
symptoms of overexposure to vibration.
Such symptoms include numbness, loss of
feeling, tingling, pricking, pain, loss of
strength, changes in skin colour or condition.
These symptoms normally appear in the
fingers, hands or wrists. These symptoms
may be increased in cold temperatures.
Start/stop switch
Use the start/stop switch to stop the engine.
(Fig. 29)
WARNING: The start/stop switch
automatically goes back to start position. To
prevent accidental start, remove the spark
plug cap from the spark plug when you
assemble or do maintenance on the product.
(Fig. 30)
Muffler
WARNING: The muffler becomes very hot
during/after operation and at idle speed.
There is a risk of fire, especially when you
operate the product near flammable
materials and/or fumes.
WARNING: Do not operate a product
without a muffler or with a defective muffler.
A defective muffler can increase the noise
level and the risk of fire. Keep fire
extinguishing tools near. Do not use a
product without, or with a broken, spark
arrestor mesh if you must have a spark
arrestor mesh in your area.
The muffler keeps the noise levels to a minimum and
points the exhaust fumes away from the operator. In
areas with a hot, dry weather there is a high risk of fire.
Obey local regulations and maintenance instructions.
(Fig. 31)

associated with inhalation.
• Do not smoke and do not place any hot objects in
the vicinity of fuel.
• Always stop the engine and let it cool for a few
minutes before refuelling.
• When refuelling, open the fuel cap slowly so that any
excess pressure is released gently.
• Tighten the fuel cap carefully after refuelling.
• Never refuel the machine while the engine is
running.
• Always move the product at least 3 m (10 ft) away
from the refuelling area and source before starting.
After refuelling, there are some situations where you
must never start the product:
• If you have spilled fuel or chain oil on the product.
Wipe off the spillage and allow remaining fuel to
evaporate.
