- Risk of kickback! There is always a risk of kickback when the bar tip touches the wood or
other objects. This makes the chainsaw uncontrollable and it may be thrown towards the
operator with great force.
- Do not use the tool as a lever to move objects.
- Always use the chain guard during transport and storage.
- Warning! Keep passers-by away from running equipment but never work by yourself.
Keep within earshot of others in case you need help.
- Stop the engine immediately when someone approaches you.
- Make sure that the saw chain does not come in contact with foreign objects such as
stones, fences, nails and similar. These objects could be ejected and injure the operator
or passers-by or damage the saw chain.
- National specifications may restrict the use of the pole saw.
- Do not use the machine within 10 metres of a position from which it can reach high-
voltage cables.
