that cold weather is a major factor contributing to Raynaud’s
Syndrome.
■
After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood
circulation.
■
Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per day.
■
Protective gloves available from professional chainsaw retailers
are designed specifically for chainsaw use, which give protection,
good grip, and reduce the effect of handle vibration.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition, immediately
discontinue use and see your doctor.
WARNING! Injuries may be caused, or aggravated, by
prolonged use of a tool. When using any tool for prolonged
periods, ensure you take regular breaks.

SAFETY DEVICES
Low kickback saw chain
A low-kickback saw chain helps to reduce the possibility of a kickback
event.
The rakers (depth gauges) ahead of each cutter can minimize the
force of a kickback reaction by preventing the cutters from digging in
too deeply. Only use replacement guide bar and chain combinations
recommended by the manufacturer.
As saw chains are sharpened, they lose some of the low kickback
qualities and extra caution is required. For your safety, replace saw
chains when cutting performance decreases.
Spiked bumper
The integral bumper spike may be used as a pivot when making a cut.
It helps to keep the body of the chainsaw steady while cutting. When
cutting, push the machine forward until the spikes dig into the edge
of the wood, then move the rear handle up or down in the direction of
the cutting line to help ease the physical strain of cutting.
Guide bars
Generally, guide bars with small radius tips have a somewhat lower
potential for kickback. Use a guide bar and matching chain that is just
long enough for the job. Longer bars increase the risk of loss of control
during sawing. Regularly check the chain tension. When cutting
smaller branches (less than the full length of the guide bar), the chain
is more likely to be thrown off if the tension is not correct.
Chain brake
Chain brakes are designed to quickly stop the chain from rotating.
When the chain brake lever is pushed towards the bar, the chain
should stop immediately. A chain brake does not prevent kickback.
It only lowers the risk of injury should the chain bar contact the
operator’s body during a kickback event. The chain brake should be
tested before each use for correct operation in both the run and brake
positions.
WARNING! If the chain brake does not stop the chain
immediately, or if the chain brake does not stay in the run
position without assistance, take the product to an authorised
service centre for repair prior to use.
