medication. Inattention can result in serious injuries. If you use the petrol chainsaw for lengthy periods of time, you may suffer circulation problems caused by vibrations (white finger disease) and noise. It is not possible to provide precise details on the duration of use in each case since it may differ from person to person.

Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator. Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the saw which could result in serious personal injury. Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below:...
kickback. Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw chain. Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to increased kickback. INTENDED USE The chain saw is intended for sawing of trees, tree trunks, branches, wooden beams, planks, etc. Cuts can be sawed with or across the grain.

mixed with oil only. Only fuel the machine in well-lit areas. Avoid fuel spillage. Never refuel the machine during operation. Let the engine cool down for about two minutes before refueling. Refueling must not be carried out near naked flames, control lamps or spark producing electrical equipment such as electric tools, welders or sanders.

7. In rain or stormy weather Chain brake The chain brake is a device which stops the chain instantaneously if the chain saw recoils due to kickback. Normally, the brake is activated automatically by inertial force. It can also be activated manually by pushing the brake lever (Front handle guard) down toward the front.

The chain saw operator should keep on the uphill side of the terrain as the tree is likely to roll or slide downhill after it is felled. An escape path should be planned and cleared as necessary before cuts are started. The escape path should extend back and diagonally to the rear of the expected line of fall as illustrated in Figure BB.101.
