Preparing the workplace
Prior to cutting with the chain saw, you must properly prepare the workplace so to minimize the potential risk of danger situations,
which accompany the work with a chain saw. You should make sure, that in the workplace there will be present only authorized
persons.
In the case of trees cutting, you should designate the danger zones and escape routes. A zone within radius of 180 around the
O
anticipated plane of tree fall and a zone with a radius of 90 in the opposite direction to the anticipated plane of tree fall are treated
0
as hazardous zones. The other zones create escape routes (VI). You should remember, that the falling tree can fall over also on
next trees. Therefore, the next workplace may not be closer than 2.5 times the height of cut tree (VII).
From the workplace, you should have good visibility, therefore, use caution when you are cutting trees in the diffi cult terrain con-
ditions such as. in the mountains.
You should not start works during precipitation and in the case of high humidity, for example mist.
You should wear protective clothing and personal protective equipment.
Before you start the cutting you should carry out a test of wood cutting in safe conditions, for example, with wood placed on a
sawing jack.
You should avoid cutting the wires, young trees and wooden beams.
Do not stand on the cut wood.
Connecting the power to chain saw (VIII)
IThe tool is powered by two batteries. The tool will not start up if one of the batteries is not mounted in the tool or is discharged.
The batteries in the tool are connected in a string, which means that the tool is supplied with the sum of their rated voltages. It is
recommended that both batteries have the same capacity and are equally charged. The batteries used to power the tool should
also be equally used. It is not recommended to connect an exhausted battery with a new one, even if both are equally charged
and have the same capacity. Failure to comply with the above recommendations will result in shorter operating time and faster
wear of the batteries used to power the tool.
Slide the battery into one of the sockets so that its latch is outside the socket. Slide the battery into the socket until the latch en-
gages. Repeat for the second battery. Make sure that the batteries will not slide out on their own during operation. Disconnect the
battery by pressing and holding the latch and then pulling the battery out of the socket.
Starting the chainsaw
Make sure that the refl ective brake is in the rear position.
Remove the cover from the guide and chain.
Grasp the front handle with your left hand and the back handle with your right hand.
Make sure that the guide and chain do not come into contact with any object or surface.
Press the switch lock button on the handle with your thumb.
Press and hold the button in this position. The lock button can be released.
Before cutting, wait until the engine is at full speed and make sure that the chain runs smoothly along the
guide. If you hear any suspicious sounds or vibration, switch the saw off immediately
by releasing the switch.
The chainsaw is turned off by releasing the switch.
It is forbidden to turn the chainsaw off by applying the refl ective brake.
Unplug the chainsaw from the power supply and proceed with maintenance once the chain has stopped.
Before starting the chainsaw, check that the automatic chain lubrication system works properly. To do this, start the chainsaw, let
it reach its rated speed, and then point the guide downwards. Traces of oil should appear on the ground. If no such traces are
visible, stop the chainsaw, disconnect it from the power supply and check that there is oil in the tank and check the condition of
the seal and the oil outlet (marked with an arrow in the picture III). If necessary, clean the seal and socket. If the seal is damaged
or worn, it must be replaced before starting operation.
Work with the chain saw
Persons, who are going to work for the fi rst time with the chain saw should seek advice before starting work on the work and safety
from a qualifi ed operator chain saw. The fi rst works with chain saw should rely on cutting prepared logs placed in a sawing jack.
When working you should observe basic occupational safety rules.. You should also take into account the possibility of the chain
saw rebound towards the operator. The chain saw can bounce in the direction of the operator in the case, when the cutting chain
hits a resistance.
To minimize this risk you should:
Pay attention to the location of the peak of guide when cutting. It is forbidden to cut with the top quarter of the guide (IX).
You should cut only with the chain, which moves across the bottom part of the guide. When you are cutting wood, you can use
the lower bumper tooth as a hook of the axis of chain saw rotation (X).
For the cut wood you should apply only the chain saw, which is already running. Do not start the chain saw after the it is applied
to the processed wood.
During work do not raise the chain saw at the height shoulders or above (XI).
