b. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety
equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, rubber
gloves, snug-fitting clothing or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position
before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
plugging in power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.
d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power
tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power
tool may result in personal injury.
e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used.
Use of these devices can reduce dust related hazards.
h. Maintain Appliance With Care - Keep cutting edge sharp and
clean for best performance and to reduce the risk of injury. Follow
instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect appliance
cord periodically, and if damaged, have it repaired by an authorized
service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if
damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
i. Grip Saw Firmly - Hold the chain saw firmly with both hands when
the motor is running. Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling
the chain saw handles.
j. Power Supply - Connect chain saw to correct voltage, that is, be
sure that the voltage supplied is the same as that specified on the
nameplate of the tool.
4. Power tool use and care
a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed.
b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.
c. Disconnect the plug from the power source when not in use,
before servicing, before making any adjustments, changing
accessories and attachments such as saw chain and guard or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
d. When not in use, appliances should be stored indoors in a dry,
and high or locked-up place, out of the reach of children and do not
allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions
to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of
untrained users.
e. Check Damaged Parts - Before further use of the appliance, a
guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked
to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended
function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting, and any other condition that may affect
its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless indicated
elsewhere in this manual.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools
with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance
with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular
type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
