Always use common sense

It is not possible to cover every conceivable situation you
can face when using a chain saw. Always exercise care and
use your common sense. Avoid all situations which you
consider to be beyond your capability. (2) If you still feel
uncertain about operating procedures after reading these
instructions, you should consult an expert before continuing.
Do not hesitate to contact your dealer or us if you have any
questions about the use of the chain saw. We will willingly be
of service and provide you with advice as well as help you
to use your chain saw both efficiently and safely. Attend a
training course in chain saw usage if possible. Your dealer,
forestry school or your library can provide information about
which training materials and courses are available.
Work is constantly in progress to improve the design and
technology - improvements that increase your safety and
