• Make sure that you can stand firmly and
safely in each work position. When work-
ing on a sloping subsurface, be espe-
cially careful!
• Always hold the device firmly in both
hands. Use your right hand to grip the
rear handle, your left hand to grip the
other handle, even if you are left-handed.
Do not let go of the handles!
• When the saw is running, keep all body
parts away from the saw chain. Make
sure before starting the saw that the saw
chain does not touch anything.
• Never saw above shoulder height! Do not
lean forward or back!
• Always ensure that you are standing
firmly and only use the chain saw when
you are standing on stable, firm and level
ground. A slippery subsurface or instable
standing area such as on a ladder can
cause you to lose your balance or lose
control over the chain saw.

• Never work on ladders, on trees or in
other positions in which you cannot stand
safely.
• Take care when walking backwards. Dan-
ger of stumbling!

• Do not saw any wood which is under ten-
sion.
• Do not work alone! Ensure that you have
an aural, visual or other connection with
another person who is in a position to
administer first aid in emergency situa-
tions.
• With each change of location, switch the
motor off and activate the chain brake.
