GB) BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
BASIC PRECAUTIONS FOR PERSONAL SAFETY
•
Chain saws are designed for the purpose of cutting wood only. Any misuse of the product might cause serious injury or death.
•
Use safety footwear, snug-fitting clothing, and eye, hearing and head protection.
•
Wear non-slip gloves to improve your grip. Do not wear scarfs, jewelry, or neckties which could be drawn into the engine or catch on the chain
or underbrush.
•
Always hold the chain saw with both hands when the engine is running. Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw handles.
•
Protect your hearing. Guard against the effects of a long or continuous exposure to noise, such as involved in the operation of a chain saw. Wear
hearing protection devices.
•
Never operate a chain saw when you are fatigued, ill or under influence of alcohol or other drugs.
•
Keep all parts of your body away from the saw chain when the engine is running.
•
Exposure to vibrations through prolonged use of gasoline powered hand tools could cause blood vessel or nerve damage in the fingers, hands,
and wrists of people prone to circulation disorders or abnormal swellings. Prolonged use in cold weather has been linked to blood vessel damage
in otherwise healthy people. If symptoms occur such as numbness, pain, loss of strength, change in skin color or texture, or loss of feeling in
the fingers, hands, or wrists, discontinue the use of this tool and seek medical attention.
•
Avoid breathing exhaust gas, chain lubrication oil mist or saw dust. Only operate the chain saw in well ventilated areas.
BASIC PRECAUTIONS WITH CHAIN SAWS
•
Always carry the chain saw with the engine stopped, the guide bar and saw chain to the rear, and the muffler away from your body.
•
When transporting your chain saw, use the appropriate guide bar scabbard.
•
Always use caution when handling fuel. Move the chain saw at least 3 meters from the fueling point before starting the engine.
•
Be ready to hold up the saw so it will not drop onto your leg when the cut is finished.
•
Never make one-hand cuts because kickback, pinch, push or other reactions cannot be controlled as well with only one hand.
•
Never let anyone use your chain saw who has not received adequate instructions in its proper use. This applies to rentals as well as privately
owned saws.
•
Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil or fuel mixture.
•
Before you start the engine, make sure the saw chain is not contacting anything.
•
Shut off the engine before setting down the saw. Do not leave the engine running unattended.
•
Be sure that the chain stops moving when the throttle control is released.
•
Do not adapt your powerhead to a bow guide or use it to power any attachments or devices not listed for your saw.
BASIC PRECAUTIONS ABOUT MAINTENANCE
•
Never operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly adjusted, or is not completely and securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops
moving when the throttle control trigger is released.
•
All chain saw service, other than items in the owner's manual Maintenance Intructions, should be performed by competent chain saw service
personnel. For example, improper repairs to the flywheel or clutch can cause serious injuries from exploding parts.
BASIC PRECAUTIONS IN CUTTING/WORK AREA
•
Do not operate a chain saw in a tree unless you have been specifically trained to do so.
•
Keep bystanders and animals out of the work area.
•
Never start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing, and a planned retreat path from the falling tree.
•
Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and saplings, because 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 springback so that you will not be struck when the tension in the wood fibers is released.
•
Use only the product manufacturer's genuine replacement parts. Failure to do so may cause possible injury.
