be controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are
taken. Do not let go of the chainsaw.
■
Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder
height. This helps prevent unintended tip contact and
enables better control of the chainsaw in unexpected
situations.
■
Use only replacement bars and chains that are
specified by the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement
bars and chains may cause chain breakage and/or
kickback.
■ Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and
maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to
increased kickback.
ADDITIONAL CHAINSAW SAFETY WARNINGS
■ It is recommended to practise cutting logs on a saw-
horse or cradle when operating the product for the first
time.
■ Ensure that all guards, handles, and spiked bumper are
properly fitted and are in good condition.
■ Persons using the product should be in good health.
The product is heavy, so the operator requires to be
physically fit. The operator should be alert, have good
vision, mobility, balance, and manual dexterity. If there
is any doubt, do not operate the product.
■ Do not start using the product until you have a clear
work area, secure footing, and a planned retreat path
away from a falling tree.
■ Beware of the emission of lubricant mist and sawdust.
Wear a mask or respirator, if required.
■ Do not cut vines or small undergrowth (less than 75
mm in diameter).
■ Always hold the product with both hands when
operating the saw. Use a firm grip with thumbs and
fingers encircling the chainsaw handles. The right hand
must be on the rear handle and the left hand on the
front handle.
■ Before starting the product, make sure that the saw
chain is not contacting any object.
■ Do not modify the product in any way or use it to power
any attachments or devices that are not recommended
by the manufacturer for the product.
■ There should be a first-aid kit containing large
wound dressings and a means to summon attention
(e.g., whistle) close to the operator. A larger, more
comprehensive kit should be reasonably nearby.
■ Wear a helmet at all times when operating the product.
A helmet, equipped with mesh visor, helps reduce the
risk of injury to the face and the head if kickback occurs.
■ An incorrectly tensioned chain can jump off the guide
bar and could result in serious injury or fatality. The
length of the chain depends on the temperature. Check
the chain tension frequently.
■ Get used to a new chainsaw by making simple cuts on
securely supported wood. Do this whenever you have
not operated the saw for some time.
■ To reduce the risk of injury associated with contacting
moving parts, always stop the product, apply the chain
brake, remove the battery pack, and make sure that all
moving parts have come to a stop:
– before cleaning or clearing a blockage
– before leaving the product unattended
– before installing or removing attachments
– before checking, performing maintenance, or
working on the product
■ The size of the work area depends on the job being
performed and the size of the tree or workpiece
involved. For example, felling a tree requires a larger
work area than making other cuts, such as bucking
cuts. The operator needs to be aware and in control of
everything happening in the work area.
■ Do not cut with your body in line with the guide bar and
chain. If you experience kickback, this position helps
prevent the chain from coming into contact with your
head or body.
■ Do not use a back-and-forward sawing motion, let the
chain do the work, keep the chain sharp, and do not try
to push the chain through the cut.
■ Do not put pressure on the saw at the end of the cut.
Be ready to take on the weight of the saw as it cuts free
from the wood. Failure to do so could result in possible
serious personal injury.
■ Do not stop the saw in the middle of a cutting operation.
Keep the saw running until it is removed from the cut.
Personal protective equipment
Good quality personal protective equipment as used by
professionals helps reduce the risk of injury to the operator.
Wear the following items when operating a chainsaw:
■ Safety helmet
■ Hearing protection
■ Eye and face protection
■ Gloves
■ Leg protection (chaps)
■ Chainsaw safety boots
■ Chainsaw jackets for upper body protection
ASSEMBLY
WARNING
If any parts are damaged or missing, do not operate the
product until the parts are replaced. Failure to heed this
warning could result in serious personal injury.
1. Remove the battery pack from the product. Wear
protective gloves.
2. Loosen the chain tensioner knob, and remove the
sprocket cover.
3. Install the saw chain on the bar. Insert the chain drive
links into the bar groove. Position the saw chain so that
there is a loop at the back of the bar.
The saw chain should face in the direction of chain
rotation. If the saw chain faces backwards, turn the
loop over.
4. Hold the saw chain in position on the bar, and place
the loop around the drive sprocket. Lower the bar so
