Safety instructions

There is a high risk of injury when work-
ing with chain saws, as you are working
with high chain speeds and very sharp
sawteeth. Hence, special safety meas-
ures and rules of conduct must be ob-
served when working with chain saws.
In addition to these safety instructions, the
country-related safety and training rules
(e.g. of authorities, occupational insurance
associations or social security benefits of-
fices) must be observed.
The use of chain saws can be limited in
time by local regulations (time of day or
year). Observe the local regulations.

General notes on safety

 The user is responsible for the safe use
of the chain saw, especially with re-
spect to personal health and other per-
sons.
 Operate chain saws only in a rested
and healthy condition. The chain saw
must not be operated under the influ-
ence of medication or drugs that limit
the capacity of reaction.
 The user must be in the physical condi-
tion to react to possibly occurring reac-
tion effects (kick-back, drawing or re-
coil) and to soften them by physical
strength.
Take breaks in order to prevent fatigue.
 The device must not be operated by mi-
nors.
 Keep children and other individuals out
of the working area during use.
 Persons with limited sensory and cogni-
tive abilities must not use the chain
saw.
 Increased risk of accident in bad weath-
er conditions. Only use chain saw if
safe working conditions are guaran-
teed.
DANGER
Long hours of using the appliance can
cause circulation problems in the hands on
account of vibrations.
