a chain saw for logging purposes, for
instance, refer to the OSHA regulations
for "logging operations" at 29 Code of
Federal Regulations 1910.266.
WARNING
Do not lend or rent your chain saw
without the instruction manual. Be sure
that anyone using it understands the
information contained in this manual.
The use of noise emitting chain saws
may be restricted to certain times by
national, state or local regulations.
Use your chain saw only for cutting
wooden objects.
WARNING
Do not use it for other purposes, since
misuse may result in personal injury or
property damage, including damage to
the chain saw.
WARNING
Minors should never be allowed to use
this chain saw. Bystanders, especially
children, and animals should not be
allowed in the area where it is in use.
Most of these safety precautions and
warnings apply to the use of all STIHL
chain saws. Different models may have
different parts and controls. See the
appropriate section of your instruction
manual for a description of the controls
and the function of the parts of your
model.
WARNING
Always stop the engine and activate the
QuickStop Chainbrake before
transporting or carrying out any work on
the chain saw. This avoids the risk of the
engine starting unintentionally.
STIHL recommends the use of genuine
STIHL replacement parts. They are
specifically designed to match your
model and meet your performance
requirements.
Safe use of a chain saw involves
1
the operator
2 the chain saw
3 the use of the chain saw.
THE OPERATOR
Physical Condition
You must be in good physical condition
and mental health and not under the
influence of any substance (drugs,
alcohol, etc.) which might impair vision,
dexterity or judgment. Do not operate
this chain saw when you are fatigued.
WARNING
Be alert – if you get tired, take a break.
Tiredness may result in loss of control.
Working with any power tool can be
strenuous. If you have any condition that
might be aggravated by strenuous work,
check with your doctor before operating
this chain saw.
WARNING
Prolonged use of a chain saw (or other
power tools) exposing the operator to
vibrations may produce whitefinger
disease (Raynaud's phenomenon) or
carpal tunnel syndrome.
These conditions reduce the hand's
ability to feel and regulate temperature,
produce numbness and burning
sensations and may cause nerve and
circulation damage and tissue necrosis.
All factors which contribute to white-
finger disease are not known, but cold
weather, smoking and diseases or
physical conditions that affect blood
vessels and blood transport, as well as
high vibration levels and long periods of
exposure to vibration are mentioned as
factors in the development of whitefinger
disease. In order to reduce the risk of
whitefinger disease and carpal tunnel
syndrome, please note the following:
–
Most STIHL chain saws are
available with an anti-vibration
("AV") system designed to reduce
the transmission of vibrations
created by the chain saw to the
operator's hands. An AV system is
recommended for those persons
using chain saws on a regular or
sustained basis.
–
Wear gloves and keep your hands
warm. Heated handles, which are
available on some STIHL chain
saws, are recommended for cold
weather use.
