EGO POWER+ CSX3000 Operator's Manual page 15

◾
A chain saw is intended for two
handed use. Serious injury to the
operator, helpers, and/or bystanders
can result from one-handed
operation (Fig. 6).
◾
Always cut with the unit running
at full speed. Fully squeeze the
switch trigger and maintain cutting
speed.
◾
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 (Fig. 7).
◾
Fatigue causes carelessness.
Be more cautious before rest
periods and towards the end of
your shift.
◾
When transporting your chain saw,
use the appropriate transportation
covers, which should be available
for the guide bar and saw chain
◾
Beware of carbon monoxide
poisoning. Operate the chain saw in
well-ventilated areas only.
◾
Avoid unintentional contact with
the stationary saw chain or guide bar rails. These can be very sharp. Always
wear gloves and long pants or chaps when handling the chain saw, saw chain, or
guide bar.
◾
Never operate a chain saw that is damaged or improperly adjusted or
that is not completely and securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain
stops moving when the trigger switch is released.
◾
When bucking, secure the work piece prior to cutting. When felling or
pruning, identify and secure hazardous branches.
