Warning!
Never touch a chain with your hand or
any part of your body when the engine is
running, even when the chain is not
rotating. The chain continues to rotate
for a short period after the throttle trigger
is released.
!
Warning!
The muffler and other parts of the engine
(e.g. fins of the cylinder, spark plug)
become hot during operation and remain
hot for a while after stopping the engine.
To reduce risk of burns do not touch the
muffler and other parts while they are
hot.

Warning!
Do not cut any material other than wood
or wooden objects. Use your chainsaw
for cutting only. It is not designed for
prying or shoveling away limbs, roots or
other objects. When sawing, make sure
that the saw chain does not touch any
foreign materials such as rocks, fences,
nails and the like. Such objects may be
flung off, damage the saw chain or
cause the saw to kickback.
Do not underbuck freely hanging limbs
because the chain may get pinched and
cause kickback and loss of control. Take
special care when cutting shattered
wood because of the risk of injury from
slivers being caught and thrown in your
direction.
Don't put pressure on the saw when
reaching the end of a cut. The pressure
may cause the bar and rotating chain to
pop out of the cut or kerf, go out of
control and strike the operator or some
other object. If the rotating chain strikes
some other object, a reactive force may
cause the moving chain to strike the
operator.
English / USA
To reduce risk of falls, keep rotating
saw chain well clear of harness and
lifelines to avoid them being severed. It
is essential to use a double lifeline.
Check condition of harness, belts and
ropes at regular frequent intervals.
Always pull the saw out of the cut with
the chain running.
After finishing a cut, activate the chain
brake to lock the chain or shut down the
engine before moving the saw to
another position in the tree.
