•  Carry the chain saw by the front handle with the chain saw 

switched off and away from your body. When transporting 

or storing the chain saw, always fit the guide bar cover. 

Proper handling of the chain saw will reduce the likelihood 

of accidental contact with the moving saw chain.

•  Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning and 

changing accessories. An improperly tensioned or poorly 

lubricated chain may either break or increase the chance 

for kickback.

•  Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. 

Greasy, oily handles are slippery and can cause loss of 

control.

•  Cut wood only. Do not use the chain saw for any other 

purpose. For example, do not use the chain saw to cut 

plastic, masonry or non-wood building materials. Using 

the chain saw in these incorrect ways could result in 

serious damage to you and your tool.

Causes and Prevention  

of Kickback

Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar 

touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches 

the saw chain in the cut. Tip contact in some cases may cause 

a sudden reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back 

towards the operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may 

push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator.
Either of these reactions may cause you to loose control of the 

saw which could result in serious personal injury. Do not rely 

exclusively upon the safety devices built into your saw.
As a chain saw user, you should take several steps to keep 

your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.

Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating 

procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper 

precautions as detailed below:

•  Maintain a firm grip (right hand on the rear handle and 

left hand on the front handle with thumbs and fingers 

encircling the respective handles) and position your body 

and arms to allow you to resist kickback forces. Kickback 

forces can be controlled by the operator, if proper 

precautions are taken. Do not let go of the chain saw.

•  Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder height. 

This helps prevent unintended tip contact and enables 

better control of the chain saw in unexpected situations.

•  Only use replacement bars and chains 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.

•  Always observe the safety regulations and follow the 

correct sawing techniques.

•  Ensure safe carrying of the chain saw. Whenever the 

machine is to be handled or transported, you must:

  switch off the motor, remove the battery and wait for 

 

 

the chain to stop;

  mount the guide bar cover;

  hold the machine using the hand grips and  

 

position the bar in the opposite direction to that used  

 

during operation.

  When using a vehicle to transport the machine, fasten 

it firmly and position it so that it is not a danger to any 

passengers.

•  Before felling or delimbing for the first time, make sure:

  you have been specifically trained to use this type 

 

 

of equipment;

  you have carefully read the safety regulations and  

 

user instructions contained in this manual;

  you practice first on logs on the ground or attached to 

 

 

trestles, in order to get familiar with the machine and  

 

the proper cutting techniques.

Battery & Charger  

Safety Instructions

We pay a great deal of attention to the design of every battery 

pack to ensure that we supply you with batteries that are safe, 

durable and have a high energy density. The battery cells have 

a wide range of safety devices. Each individual cell is initially 

formatted and its electrical characteristic curves are recorded. 

This data is then used exclusively to be able to assemble the 

best possible battery packs.
Despite all the safety precautions, caution must always be 

exercised when handling batteries. The following points must 

be obeyed at all times to ensure safe use. Safe use can only 

be guaranteed if undamaged cells are used. Incorrect handling 

of the battery pack can cause cell damage.
IMPORTANT!

 Analyses confirm that incorrect use and poor 

care of high-performance batteries are the main factors 

responsible for personal and/or product damage.

m

WARNING!

 

Use only approved replacement batteries; 

other batteries may damage the chain saw and cause it to 

malfunction, which can lead to serious personal injury.

m

CAUTION!

 To reduce the risk of injury, charge the 

EcoSharp

®

 iBAT40 lithium-ion battery pack only in its 

designated lithium-ion charger, the iCHRG40. Other types of 

chargers present risk of fire, personal injury and damage. Do 

not wire a battery pack to a power supply plug or car cigarette 

lighter. Such misuse will permanently disable or damage the 

battery pack.

• 

Avoid dangerous environments – Do not charge the 

battery pack in rain, snow or in damp or wet locations. 

Do not use the battery pack or charger in the presence of 

explosive atmospheres (gaseous fumes, dust or flammable 

materials) because sparks may be generated when inserting 

or removing the battery pack, which could lead to a fire.
