4. Safety instructions
The safety instructions must be observed
when using the machine. For your own
safety and the safety of others, please read
this information carefully before using the
machine and keep it in a safe place for refe-
rence. Use the chainsaw only to saw wood
or objects made of wood. Any other types
of use are at your own risk and could well
be dangerous. The manufacturer cannot be
held liable for damage caused by improper
or incorrect usage.
Safety instructions and
accident prevention
To prevent the incorrect handling
of the chainsaw, please read the
operating instructions in their entirety before
using the machine for the first time. All the infor-
mation on the handling of the chainsaw is rele-
vant to your personal safety. Ask a professional
to show you how to use the machine!
Switch the machine off before releasing the
chain brake.
To prevent damage to your hearing, wear ear
muffs; helmets with a visor are particularly
advantageous.
Make sure you have a firm footing when working
with the chainsaw.
Always switch off the machine before putting it
down.
Always pull the plug out of the power socket
before doing
any
work on the machine.
Only plug in when the machine is switched off.
The chainsaw must be used only by one person
at a time. All other persons must stay clear of the
chainsaw’s area of swing. Children and pets in
particular must be kept well away at all times.
The saw must not be touching anything when it
starts up.
Hold the chainsaw firmly in both hands when
working with it!
The chainsaw must not be operated by children
and young people. The only exception to this rule
are young persons of 16 years and over who can
use the chainsaw under supervision as part of
their training. Lend the saw only to those persons
who are familiar with this type of machine and
know how to handle it. Always pass on the ope-
rating instructions along with the chainsaw!
The chainsaw may be operated only by persons
who are rested and in good health, i.e. in good
physical condition. If you start to tire, have a
break in good time. The chainsaw may not be
used after the consumption of alcohol.
If the machine is not going to be used for a while
it must be set aside in such a way that no other
person is endangered.
Before making a cut, always set the claw stop
before you start to saw.
The power cable must always be behind the saw
operator.
The power cable must always lead away from
the rear of the machine.
Use only original accessories.
Machines used outdoors must be connected
up to an earth-leakage circuit-breaker.
When using an extension cable outdoors:
Check that it is approved for outdoor use and is
marked accordingly
Use a strong support when sawing converted
timber and thin branches (sawing trestle, Fig. 4).
Do not stack the timber and do not have it held
by a second person or with your foot.
Logs must be secured in position.
On sloping ground, always work facing upwards.
Pull the saw out of the wood only when the saw
chain is running.
If you are performing several cuts, switch off the
chainsaw in between cuts.
Pay extra attention when cutting splintered wood.
Sawed off pieces of wood may be catapulted in
any direction (risk of injury!).
Do not use the chainsaw to remove or sweep
away small pieces of wood or similar objects.
Leave branch lopping work to trained personnel!
Risk of injury!
Pay special attention to branches under tension.
Do not cut through freely suspended branches
from underneath.
Never stand on the trunk when lopping off bran-
ches.
The chainsaw may not be used for forest work,
i.e. for felling and lopping off branches in the
forest. Because of the cable connection the saw
operator does not have the necessary mobility
and his safety is not guaranteed!
Always stand to the side of the tree being felled.
When retreating after making the back cut, watch
out for falling branches.
On slopes the saw operator should stand to the
upper or left or right side the trunk or lying tree,
never by its bottom.
To prevent injury, damaged power cables may
only be replaced by the manufacturer or the
customer service center.
