an unsecured and operating chainsaw may cause body injuries.
• The tool should be carried only in the horizontal position and
in such a manner that it remains balanced.

of moving parts. Check the tool for cracks and all other factors
that may affect operation of the tool. If a damage is found,
repair the tool before it is used. Many accidents are caused by
improper maintenance of tool.

• Do not refill with fuel in closed rooms.
• The fuel tank should be filled with petrol and oil mix, when the

ignited by hot components of the tool.
• If petrol is spilled, it should be immediately wiped off of the tool. If
fuel is spilled on your cloths, change clothes immediately.
