WARNING! B
Engine produces carbon monoxide during operation. It is a colourless, odourless
poisonous gas. Breathing carbon monoxide can cause nausea, faintness, reproductive
disorders or even death.
• Keep workplaces clean and well lit. Disorder and dark places at a workplace are the cause
of accidents.
• Do not operate this machine in potentially explosive environments, e.g. in the vicinity of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. The machine produces sparks that can ignite dust or fumes.
• Remove cut material and keep the area under your feet clean.
SAFETY WARNING FOR CHAINSAW
• If the chainsaw is in operation, keep all parts of the body outside the saw chain. Before
starting the chainsaw, make sure that the saw chain does not touch anything. A moment
of inattention while the chainsaws are in operation can cause your clothing or body to be
caught by a saw chain.
• Always hold the chainsaw with your right hand by its rear handle and your left hand by
front handle. Holding the chainsaw with the reversed hand configuration increases the risk
of injury to the person and should never be used.
• Use safety glasses and hearing protection. Additional protective equipment
for the head, arms, legs and feet is recommended. Appropriate protective, non-
cut clothing reduces the possibility of injuring a person by flying particles or by
accidentally touching the saw chain.
• Do not work with the chainsaw on a tree. Working with the chainsaw when used to work
on a tree can result in personal injury.
• Always take the right stance and work with the chainsaw only if you stand on a firm, secure
and level surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces, such as ladders, can cause a loss of balance
or control of the chainsaw.
• When cutting a branch that is sprung, be prepared to jump aside. If the tension in the wood
fibres is released, the sprung branch may hit the user and/or throw the chainsaw away.
• When cutting bushes and young trees, work with caution. Thin material can be caught by
the saw chain and whip it in your direction or get you out of balance.
• Carry the chainsaw by the front handle, away from your body, always with the engine
turned off. Always put a protective cover on a guide bar when transporting or storing
the chainsaws. The chance of accidental contact with the moving saw chain is reduced by
properly holding the chainsaw.
• Observe the instructions for lubrication, chain tensioning and replacement of accessories.
An incorrectly tightened or lubricated chain may either break or increase the possibility of
kickback.
• Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil and grease. Oily, oiled handles are slippery and
cause loss of control.
• Only cut wood. Do not use the chainsaw for purposes other than those which it is intended
for. For example: do not use chainsaws to cut plastic, masonry or other non-wood building
materials. Using the chainsaw for operations other than which it is intended for may cause
a hazardous situation.
