hazardous properties:
• The uid and its vapor are poisonous.
• Can cause eye and skin irritation.
• Can cause breathing problems.
• Is highly ammable.
When using compressed air, do not direct the jet
towards your body. Air can penetrate into the blood
circulation, which means mortal danger.

After test running, do not touch the mufer before
it has cooled down. Risk of burns. Use protective
gloves when working with the mufer.
The bar, chain and clutch cover (chain brake) must
be tted before the saw is started otherwise the
clutch can work itself loose and cause personal

Insufcient chain lubrication can result in chain
breakage, which can cause serious or even life-
threatening injury.
Exercise care to ensure the starter spring does not
y out and cause personal injury. Use protective
