Stihl MSA 200 C Instruction Manual page 97

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from
moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught
in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for
connection of dust extraction and
- collection facilities, ensure these
are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce
dust-related hazards.
4) Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the
correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool
will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the
switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be
controlled with the switch is
dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack from
the power tool before making any
adjustments, changing accessories,
or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce
the risk of starting the power tool
accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the
reach of children and do not allow
persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate
the power tool. Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged,
have the power tool repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting attachments sharp and
clean. Properly maintained cutting
attachments with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories,
tool bits etc. in accordance with
these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the
power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
5) Battery tool use and care
a) Recharge the batteries only in
chargers specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is
suitable for one type of battery pack
may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with
specifically designated battery
packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury and
fire.
c) When battery pack is not in use,
keep it away from other metal
objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small
objects that could make a
connection from one terminal to
another. Shorting the battery
terminals together may cause burns
or a fire.
d) Misuse may cause liquid to escape
from the battery. Avoid contact with
the liquid. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from
the battery may cause irritation or
burns.
6) Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only
identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the
power tool is maintained.
Chain saw safety warnings

–
right hand on the rear handle and
your left hand on the front handle.
Holding the chain saw the other way
