GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Important
IMPORTANT!
The machine is only designed for cutting wood.
You should only use the saw with the bar and chain
combinations we recommend in the chapter Technical
data.
Never use the machine if you are fatigued, while under
the influence of alcohol or drugs, medication or
anything that could affect your vision, alertness,
coordination or judgement.
Wear personal protective equipment. See instructions
under the heading Personal protective equipment.
Do not modify this product or use it if it appears to have
been modified by others.
Never use a machine that is faulty. Carry out the checks,
maintenance and service instructions described in this

See instructions under the heading Maintenance.
Never use any accessories other than those

chain saw is capable of throwing objects, such as
wood chips, small pieces of wood, etc, at great force.
This can result in serious injury, especially to the eyes.
WARNING! Running an engine in a
!
confined or badly ventilated area can
result in death due to asphyxiation or
carbon monoxide poisoning.
WARNING! Faulty cutting equipment or
!
the wrong combination of bar and saw
chain increases the risk of kickback!
Only use the bar/saw chain
combinations we recommend, and
follow the filing instructions. See
instructions under the heading
Technical data.
Always use common sense (2)
It is not possible to cover every conceivable situation you
can face when using a chain saw. Always exercise care
and use your common sense. Avoid all situations which
you consider to be beyond your capability. If you still feel
uncertain about operating procedures after reading
these instructions, you should consult an expert before
continuing. Do not hesitate to contact your dealer or us if
you have any questions about the use of the chain saw.
We will willingly be of service and provide you with
advice as well as help you to use your chain saw both
efficiently and safely. Attend a training course in chain
saw usage if possible. Your dealer, forestry school or your
library can provide information about which training
materials and courses are available. Work is constantly
in progress to improve the design and technology -
improvements that increase your safety and efficiency.
Visit your dealer regularly to see whether you can benefit
from new features that have been introduced.
