care and surgery. The chain saw is intended to
be used by properly trained persons only.
Observe all instructions, procedures and
recommendations from the relevant
professional organization. Otherwise fatal
accidents may occur. It is recommend that
always using a rising platform (cherry picker,
lift) for sawing in trees. Rappelling techniques
are extremely dangerous and require special
training. The operators must be trained to
become familiar with safety equipment usage
and climbing techniques. Always use the
appropriate belts, ropes and carabiners when
working in trees. Always use restraining
equipment for both the operator and the saw.
2. Perform cleaning and maintenance before
storage in accordance with the instruction
manual.
3. Ensure safe positioning of the chain saw
during car transportation to avoid fuel or chain
oil leakage, damage to the tool and personal
injury.
4. Regularly check the functionality of chain
brake.
5. Do not fill the chain oil near fire. Never smoke
when you fill the chain oil.
6. National regulation may restrict the use of the
chain saw.
7. If the equipment gets heavy impact or fall,
check the condition before continuing work.
Check the controls and safety devices for
malfunction. If there is any damage or doubt,
ask our authorized service center for the
inspection and repair.
8. Always activate the chain brake before starting
the chain saw.
9. Hold the saw firmly in place to avoid skating
(skid movement) or bouncing of the saw when
starting a cut.
10. At the end of the cut, be careful to keep your
balance due to the “drop”.
11. Take into account the direction and speed of
the wind. Avoid sawdust and chain oil mist.
Protective equipment
1. In order to avoid head, eye, hand or foot
injuries as well as to protect your hearing the
following protective equipment must be used
during operation of the chain saw:
—
The kind of clothing should be appropriate, i.
e. it should
be tight-fitting but
not be a
hindrance. Do not
wear jewelry or
clothing which could become
entangled with bushes or shrubs. If you
have long hair, always wear a hairnet!
—
It is necessary to wear a protective helmet
whenever working with the chain saw. The
protective helmet is to be checked in regular
intervals for damage and is to be replaced
after 5 years at the latest. Use only approved
protective helmets.
— The
face shield of the protective helmet (or
the goggles) protects against sawdust and
wood chips. During operation of the chain
saw always wear a goggle or a face shield to
prevent
eye injuries.
— Wear adequate
noise protection
equipment (ear muffs, ear plugs, etc.)
— The
protective jacket consists of 22 layers
of nylon and protects the operator against
cuts. It is always to be worn when working
from elevated platforms (cherry pickers, lifts),
from platforms mounted on ladders or when
climbing with ropes.
— The
protective brace and bib overall is
made of a nylon fabric with 22 layers and
protects against cuts. We strongly
recommend its use.
—
Protective gloves made of thick leather are
part of the prescribed equipment and must
always be worn during operation of the chain
saw.
— During operation of the chain saw
safety
shoes or safety boots fitted with
anti skid sole, steel toe caps
and protection for the leg must always to be
worn. Safety shoes equipped with a
protective layer provide protection against
cuts and ensure a secure footing. For
working in trees the safety boots must be
suitable for climbing techniques.
Vibration
1. Individuals with poor circulation who are exposed
to
excessive vibration may
experience injury to blood
vessels or the nervous system. Vibration may
cause the following symptoms to occur in the
fingers,
hands or wrists:
“Falling asleep”
(numbness), tingling,
pain, stabbing sensation, alteration of skin colour
or of the skin.
If any of these symptoms occur,
see a physician! To reduce the risk of
“white
finger
disease”, keep
your
hands warm during operation and
well maintain the equipment and accessories.
