Safety rules – general and for electric chainsaws
1. Replacement Parts. When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
2. Plugs. Do not modify the plug connected to the power lead in any way.
3. Cleanliness. Keep Work Area Clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries.
Do not start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing, and a planned
retreat path from the falling tree.
4. Environment. Consider your local environment, including any neighbors.
5. Cutting Small Branches. Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and
saplings because the slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped toward
you or pull you off balance. When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for spring
back so that you will not be struck when the tension in the wood fibers are released.
6. Working Conditions. Do not expose chainsaw to rain or use in damp or wet locations or
in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.
7. Guard Against Electric Shock. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces. For
example: metal pipes, wire fences etc and preferably use in conjunction with an RCD.
These are inexpensive and can be purchased from most hardware shops.
8. Children. Keep children away from this equipment at all times.
9. Storage. When not in use, chainsaws should be stored in a dry, high, or locked up place
out of the reach of children and with the chain cover supplied in place.
10. Use Correct Force. Let the chain do the work ! Using force won’t help, can be
dangerous, and probably means your saw requires sharpening.
11. Only use this saw to cut wood.
12. Dress Properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry as they could get caught in
moving parts. Rubber or leather gloves and nonskid footwear are recommended when
working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair. Use CE approved
safety goggles, head and preferably ear protectors.
13. Transporting The Chainsaw. Carry the chainsaw by the front handle with the saw
stopped, finger off the switch, the guide bar and saw chain to the rear. Keep the chain
cover fitted.
14. Maintenance.
