Safety, performance, and dependability have been given 

top priority in the design of your petrol chainsaw.

INTENDED USE

The petrol chainsaw is only intended for use outdoors in a 

well-ventilated area. For safety reasons, the product must 

be adequately controlled by using two-handed operation at 

all times.
The product is designed for cutting branches, trunks, logs, 

and beams of a diameter determined by the cutting length 

of the guide bar. It is only designed to cut wood. It is only 

to be used in domestic application by adults who have 

received adequate training on the hazards and preventative 

measures/actions to be taken while using the product.

The product is not to be used by children or by persons 

not wearing adequate personal protective equipment and 

clothing. It is also not to be used for professional tree 

services.
Do not use the product for any other purpose.

 

 WARNING

When using the product, the safety rules must be 

followed. For your own safety and that of bystanders, 

you must read and fully understand these instructions 

before operating the product. You should attend 

a professionally organised course on the use and 

maintenance of chainsaws, preventative actions, and 

first  aid.  Please  keep  these  instructions  safe  for  later 

use.

 

 WARNING

Chainsaws are potentially dangerous tools. Accidents 

involving the use of chainsaws often result in loss of 

limbs or death. It is not just the product that is the hazard. 

Falling branches, toppling trees, rolling logs can all kill. 

Diseased or rotting timber poses additional hazards. 

You should assess your capability of completing the task 

safely. If there is any doubt, leave it to a professional 

tree surgeon.

GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS

 

Some regions have regulations that restrict the use of 

the product. Check with your local authority for advice. 

 

Never allow children or people unfamiliar with the 

instructions to use the product. Local regulations may 

restrict the age of the operator.

 

Ensure before each use that all controls and safety 

devices function correctly. Do not use the product if the 

“off” switch does not stop the engine.

 

Never start or run the engine in a closed or poorly 

ventilated area, breathing exhaust fumes can kill.

 

Clear the work area before each use, a cluttered and 

untidy work area leads to accidents.

 

Wear full eye and hearing protection, strong sturdy 

gloves, safety boots with non-slip soles as well as head 

protection while using the product. Use a face mask if 

operation is dusty.

 

Do not wear loose fitting clothing, short trousers or 

jewellery of any kind.

 

Secure long hair so it is above shoulder level to prevent 

entanglement in moving parts. 

 

Beware of thrown, flying, or falling objects. Keep all 

bystanders, children, and animals at least 15 m away 

from work area.

 

Never use the product in an explosive or flammable 

atmosphere.

 

Maintain a firm grip on both handles while using the 

product.

 

Stay alert, watch what you are doing, and use common 

sense when using the product. Do not use the product 

while tired, ill, or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, 

or medication. A lapse in concentration while using the 

product may result in severe personal injury.

 

Do not use in poor lighting. The operator requires a 

clear view of the work area to identify potential hazards.

 

Use of hearing protection reduces the ability to hear 

warnings (shouts or alarms). The operator must pay 

extra attention to what is going on in the work area.

 

Operating similar tools nearby increases both the risk 

of hearing injury and the potential for other persons to 

enter your work area.

 

Keep firm footing and balance. Do not overreach. 

Overreaching can result in loss of balance or exposure 

to hot surfaces and can increase the risk of kickback.

 

Keep all parts of your body away from any moving part.

 

Do not touch the area around the silencer or engine of 

the product; these parts get very hot during operation.

 

Inspect the product before each use. Check for correct 

operation of all controls including the chain brake. 

Check for loose fasteners, fuel leaks, etc. Make sure all 

guards and handles are properly and securely attached. 

Replace any damaged parts before use.

 

Do not modify the product in any way or use parts 

and accessories that are not recommended by the 

manufacturer.

 

 WARNING

If the product is dropped, suffers heavy impact, or begins 

to vibrate abnormally, immediately stop the product and 

inspect for damage or identify the cause of the vibration. 

Any damage should be properly repaired or replaced by 

an authorised service centre.

 

When mixing fuel or filling fuel tank, do not smoke and 

keep 10 m away from any source of ignition.

 

Mix and store fuel only in a container approved for fuel.

 

Mix fuel outdoors where there are no sparks or flames. 

Wipe up any fuel spillage. Move 10 m away from 

refuelling site before starting engine.

 

Stop the engine and allow it to cool down before 

refuelling, storing, or transporting the product.

 

Remember to properly close all fuel tank/container caps 

after refuelling or mixing.
