conditions to ensure that the chainsaw works correctly. Any damaged
security device or any damaged part must suitably be repaired or be

instruction manual says otherwise.
Notes about sawing
Kickback (Fig. 9)
You could avoid accidents by not sawing with the end of the guide bar
since this could cause that the chainsaw rises suddenly.
Always use the safety equipment when working with the chainsaw.
Kickback is a movement upwards and / or backwards of the guide bar
that could take place if the chainsaw finds an obstruction at the end of
the guide bar.Use the chainsaw with both hands. Kickback causes that
the chainsaw has an uncontrolled behavior and this also happens with
a loose or unsharpened chain. An unsharpened chain increases the
risk of kickback. Never saw over shoulder height.
Felling a tree
1. Decide the felling direction considering the wind, lean of the tree,
location of heavy branches, ease of job after felling and other
factors.
2. While clearing the area around the tree, arrange a good foothold
and retreat path.
3. Make a notch cut one-third of the way into the tree on the felling
side.
4. Make a felling cut from the opposite side of the notch and at a level
slightly higher than the bottom of the notch.
WARNING!
When you fell a tree, be sure to warn your neighboring workers of the
danger.
