• Turn to your servicing dealer when you select a
chain oil.
WARNING: Do not use waste oil! Waste oil
is dangerous to you and the environment.
Waste oil also causes damage to the oil
pump, the guide bar and the saw chain.
WARNING: If the lubrication of the cutting
equipment is not sufficient, it can cause the
saw chain to break. This can cause serious
injury or death to the operator.
CAUTION: If you use vegetable based chain
oil, clean the groove in the guide bar and
saw chain before long-term storage.
Otherwise there is a risk of the saw chain
oxidizing, which causes the saw chain to
become stiff and that the bar tip sprocket
gets clogged.

Kickback information
WARNING: A kickback can cause serious
injury or death to the operator or others. To
decrease the risk you must know the causes
of kickback and how to prevent them.
A kickback occurs when the kickback zone of the guide
bar touches an object. A kickback can occur suddenly
and with large force, which throws the product in the
direction of the operator.(Fig. 60)
Kickback always occurs in the cutting plane of the guide
bar. Usually, the product is thrown against the operator
but can also move in a different direction. It is how you
use the product when the kickback occurs that causes
the direction of the movement.(Fig. 61)
Kickback only occurs if the kickback zone of the guide
bar touches an object. Do not let the kickback zone
touch an object.(Fig. 60)
