Causes And Operator Prevention Of Kickback; Additional Safety Instructions For Batteries And Chargers - Batavia BT-NXS003 Manual De Usuario

English
h. Follow instructions for lubricating,
chain tensioning and changing the bar
and chain. Improperly tensioned or
lubricated chain may either break or
increase the chance for kickback.
i. Cut wood only. Do not use multi saw
for purposes not intended. For exam-
ple: do not use multi saw for cutting
metal, plastic, masonry or non-wood
building materials. Use of the multi
saw for operations different than
intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
j. This multi saw is not intended for tree
felling. Use of the multi saw for opera-
tions different than intended could
result in serious injury to the operator or
bystanders.
k. Follow all instructions when clearing
jammed material, storing or servicing
the multi saw. Make sure the switch is
off and the battery pack is removed.
Unexpected actuation of the multi saw
while clearing jammed material or ser-
vicing may result in serious personal
injury.
4. Causes and operator prevention
of kickback
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of
the guide bar touches an object, or when the
wood closes in and pinches the saw chain
in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a
sudden reverse reaction, kicking the guide
bar up and back towards the operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the
guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly
back towards the operator.
Either of these reactions may cause you to
lose control of the saw which could result in
serious personal injury. Do not rely exclu-
sively upon the safety devices built into your
saw. As a multi saw user, you should take
several steps to keep your cutting jobs free
from accident or injury.
(See Fig. B). Kickback is the result of multi
saw misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions and can be
avoided by taking proper precautions as
given below:

a. Maintain a firm grip, with thumb and
fingers encircling the saw handle and
position your body and arm to allow
you to resist kickback forces. Kick-
back forces can be controlled by the
operator, if proper precautions are
taken. Do not let go of the saw.
b. Do not overreach and do not cut above
shoulder height. This helps prevent
unintended tip contact and enables
better control of the multi saw in unex-
pected situations.
c. Only use replacement guide bars and
saw chains specified by the manufac-
turer. Incorrect replacement guide bars
and saw chains may cause chain break-
age and/or kickback.
d. Follow the manufacturer's sharpening
and maintenance instructions for the
saw chain. Decreasing the depth gauge
height can lead to increased kickback.
