Chain saw safety warnings

■
Keep all parts of the body away from the
saw chain when the chain saw is operat-
ing. Before you start the chain saw, make
sure the saw chain is not contacting any-
thing. A moment of inattention while operat-
ing a chain saw may cause entanglement of
your clothing or body with the saw chain.
■
Always hold the chain saw with your right
hand on the rear handle and your left
hand on the front handle. Holding the chain
saw with the hands reversed increases the
risk of injury and should therefore be avoid-
ed.
■
Hold the chain saw only at the insulated
handles as the saw chain may contact
hidden wiring. Contact between the saw
chain and a live cable can result in electric
18
current flowing through metal parts of the ap-
pliance, leading to an electric shock.
■
Wear eye protection. Further protective
equipment for ears, head, hands, legs and
feet is recommended. Adequate protective
clothing will reduce the risk of personal injury
from flying debris or accidental contact with
the saw chain.
■
Do not operate the chain saw from a tree,
ladder or roof or other unstable surface.
Operation in this way poses a serious risk of
injury.
■
Always keep proper footing and operate
the chain saw only when standing on
fixed, secure and level surface. Slippery or
unstable surfaces may cause a loss of bal-
ance or control of the chain saw.
■
When cutting a branch that is under ten-
sion, be alert for spring back. When the
tension in the wood fibres is released, the
branch may strike the operator and/or knock
the chain saw out of control.
■
Use extreme caution when cutting brush
and saplings. The slender material may
catch up in the saw chain and be whipped to-
wards you or knock you off balance.
■
Carry the chain saw by the front handle
with the chain saw switched off and away
from your body. When transporting or
storing the chain saw always fit the guide
bar cover. Proper handling of the chain saw
will reduce the likelihood of accidental con-
tact with the moving saw chain.
■
Follow the instructions for lubrication,
chain tensioning and changing the chain
bar and chain. Improperly tensioned or lubri-
cated chain may either break or increase the
chance for kickback.
■
Cut wood only. Do not use the chain saw
for purposes for which it is not intended.
For example: do not use the chain saw for
cutting metal, plastic, masonry or non-
wood building materials. Use of the chain
saw for operations different than intended
could result in a hazardous situation.
■
The chain saw is not suitable for felling
trees. Use of the chain saw for other than the
intended purpose can result in serious inju-
ries to the user or other persons.
