Kick-back!
The term “kickback” describes what happens when the running chainsaw suddenly
kicks upward and backward. Usually, this is caused by contact between the tip of
the cutter rail and the workpiece or the saw chain becoming trapped. In the event
of kickback, large forces occur suddenly and violently. As a result, the chainsaw
usually reacts uncontrollably. This can often result in very serious injuries to the
worker or persons in the vicinity. The risk of kickback is at its greatest when the saw
is positioned for a cut in the region of the tip of the cutter rail, as the leverage
effect is greatest there. It is therefore safest to position the saw as flat as possible.
Important!
•
Make sure that the chain tension is always correctly adjusted.
•
Only use a chainsaw if it is in perfect working order.
•
Only work with a saw chain that has been properly sharpened in accordance
with the instructions.
•
Never cut with the upper edge or the tip of the cutter rail.
•
Always hold the chainsaw firmly with both hands.
Cutting wood which is under tension
Special care is required when cutting wood which is under tension. Wood which is
under tension from which it is released by cutting may in some cases react
completely unpredictably and uncontrollably. In the worst case this could result in
extremely severe or even fatal injuries. This type of work must only be performed
by persons who have been specially trained.

8.1 Cleaning
•
Regularly clean the clamping mechanism by blowing it out with compressed air
or cleaning it with a brush. Do not use tools for cleaning.
•
Keep the handles free of grease so that you can maintain a firm grip.
•
Clean the equipment as required with a damp cloth.
•
If the chainsaw is not to be used for an extended period of time then you
should remove the chain oil from the tank. Briefly immerse the saw chain and
the cutter rail in an oil bath and then wrap them in oil paper.
•
Never immerse the equipment in water or other liquids in order to clean it.
•
Use a brush to remove deposits from the safety guards.
