• When cutting through always use the bumper spike as a point of support.
Hold the saw by the rear handle and guide with the front handle.
• In case the cut cannot be completed in one run, pull the saw a little
back, put the bumper spike in another place and continue the cut
lifting rear handle slightly.
• When cutting in horizontal plane, position yourself at an angle as
close to 90º from cutting line as possible. Such operation requires
concentration.
• When the chain is pinched when cutting with the tip of the bar, the
saw may recoil towards operator. Because of this eect cut with
the straight part of the chain whenever possible. Then, in case of
pinching, the recoil eect changes direction away from the operator.
• Be very careful when cutting wood when there is the risk of splitting.
Pieces of wood that are cut o can be ung in any direction (risk of
body injury!).
• Only trained persons should cut tree branches! Uncontrolled fall of a
tree branch constitutes a risk of body injury!
• Do not cut with tip of the guide bar (risk of recoil).
• Pay special attention to branches under strain. Do not cut branches,
which hangs freely, from below.
• Always stand to the side of predicted fall line of the tree that is to
be cut.
• During a tree fell there is a risk that branches of the tree, or trees in
proximity, will break and fall. Be very careful, otherwise a body injury
may occur.
• On a sloped terrain the operator should stay on upper part of the
slope with respect to the tree being cut, never lower.
• Watch out for logs that may roll down towards you. Jump away!
• Operating saw tends to rotate when tip of the chain guide bar touches
processed material. In such case the saw may get out of control and
move towards the operator (risk of body injury!).
• The tree cuttings should be preceded with preparation of the work
place consisting of the removal of lower interfering branches and
clearing the area around the tree trunk.
• Do not work in strong wind, which may inuence the predicted tree
falling direction and cause its uncontrolled felling.
• Do not carry out cuttings in conditions of limited visibility, when it is
foggy, rains or snows.
• Do not overreach and do not cut above your shoulder height, or
when standing on a tree, ladder, scaold, trunk, etc.
• A well-equipped rst aid kit should be available near the work place.
To prevent saw recoil follow below instructions:
• Never start or guide a cut with the tip of the guide bar!
• Always start cutting with saw previously switched on!
• Ensure the cutting chain is sharp.
• Never cut more than one branch at a time. When cutting o, watch
out for surrounding branches. When cutting a tree through, watch
out for nearby tree trunks.

PREPARATION FOR OPERATION
CARRYING THE CHAIN SAW
Prior to carrying the chain saw slide chain cover onto guide bar and
chain. When carrying the chain saw, hold it by front handle. Do not
carry the saw when holding main handle. If several cuttings are to
be made, switch o the chain saw with the ignition switch between
consecutive tasks.
INSTALLING THE BUMPER SPIKE
The bumper spike should be attached to the chain saw at all times
due to safety reasons. The bumper spike is a support point and
reduces the kickback risk.
