Aggressive or abusive cutting or misuse
of the chain saw can cause premature bar,
chain, and/or sprocket wear, as well as a
broken chain or bar, leading to kickback,
chain throw or the ejection of material .
Never use the guide bar as a lever . A bent
guide bar can cause premature bar, chain, and/
or sprocket wear, as well as a broken chain
or bar, leading to kickback, chain throw or the
ejection of material.
Cut only one work piece at a time .
Push and Pull – The reaction force is always
opposite to the direction the chain is moving
where wood contact is made. Thus, the
operator must be ready to control the PULL
when cutting on the bottom edge of the bar,
and the PUSH when cutting along the top
edge. See Figure 6.
Plan the work, ensuring an obstacle-free
work area and, in the case of felling, at least
one escape path from the falling tree .
When felling, keep bystanders at least two
tree lengths away .
Use only with the battery packs and
chargers listed below:
