General
Observe all applicable local safety
regulations, standards and ordinances.
The use of noise emitting power tools
may be restricted to certain times by
national or local regulations.
If you have not used this model before:
Have your dealer or other experienced
user show you how to operate your
machine or attend a special course in its
operation.
Minors should never be allowed to use a
chain saw.
Keep bystanders, especially children,
and animals away from the work area.
The user is responsible for avoiding
injury to third parties or damage to their
property.
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.
To operate a chain saw you must be
rested, in good physical condition and
mental health. If you have any condition
that might be aggravated by strenuous
work, check with your doctor before
operating a chain saw.
Do not operate the chain saw if you are
under the influence of any substance
(drugs, alcohol) which might impair
vision, dexterity or judgment.
To reduce the risk of accidents or injury,
put off the work in poor weather
conditions (rain, snow, ice, wind).
Persons with pacemakers only: The
ignition system of your chain saw
produces an electromagnetic field of a
very low intensity. This field may
interfere with some pacemakers. To
reduce health risks, STIHL recommends
that persons with pacemakers consult
their physician and the pacemaker
manufacturer before operating this
power tool.
Intended use
The machine may only be used to saw
wood and wooden objects.
Do not use the machine for any other
purpose – risk of accidents!
Do not modify the machine in any way –
this may increase the risk of personal
injury. STIHL excludes all liability for
personal injury and damage to property
caused while using unauthorised
attachments.
Clothing and Equipment
Wear proper protective clothing and
equipment.
Avoid clothing that could get caught on
branches or brush or moving parts of the
saw. Do not wear a scarf, necktie or
jewelry. Tie up and confine long hair
(e.g. with a hair net, cap, hard hat, etc.).
WARNING
Wear a face shield and make sure it is a
good fit. A face shield alone does not
provide adequate eye protection.
Wear hearing protection, e.g. earplugs
or ear muffs.
Wear a safety hard hat where there is a
danger of head injuries from falling
objects.
Safety Precautions
Special safety precau
-
tions must be observed to
reduce the risk of per
-
sonal injury when
working with a chain saw
because of the very high
chain speed and very
sharp cutters.
It is important that you
read the instruction man
-
ual before first use and
keep it in a safe place for
future reference. Non-
observance of the
instruction manual may
result in serious or even
fatal injury.
Clothing must be sturdy
but allow complete free
-
dom of movement. Wear
snug-fitting clothing with
cut retardant inserts – do
not wear a work coat.
Wear steel-toed safety
boots with cut retardant
inserts and non-slip
soles.
To reduce the risk of eye
injuries, wear snug-fitting
safety glasses in accord
-
ance with European
Standard EN 166. Make
sure the safety glasses
are a good fit.
