The fuel used for the chain saw has the following
hazardous properties:
• The liquid and its fumes are poisonous.
• Can cause eye and skin irritation.
• Can cause breathing diculties.
• Is very ammable.
When using compressed air, do not direct the jet
towards the body. Air can penetrate into the blood
circulation system, which entails mortal danger.
Use hearing protection when test running.
After test running, do not touch the muer before it
has cooled down. Risk of burns. Use protective gloves
when working with muers.
Do not start the chain saw unless the bar, chain and
clutch cover (chain brake) are tted, otherwise the
clutch may come loose and cause personal injury.
Insucient chain lubrication can result in chain brea-
kage, which can cause serious or even life-threatening
injury.
Exercise care to ensure the spring does not y out and
cause personal injury. Use protective goggles. If the
spring tension is activated on the starter pulley when
it is to be taken up, the spring can y out and cause
personal injury.

pressure spring on the chain brake. Otherwise the
pressure spring can y out and cause personal injury.
