Before Starting Engine - STERWINS PCS 46 Manual De Instrucciones

NOTE
If fuel or product is ignited, please put out fire with dry powder fire
extinguisher.

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE

Check working place, the cutting object and cutting direction. It there is obstacle, remove it.
Never start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing and a planned retreat
path from the falling tree.
Use caution and keep bystanders and animals out of the working area whose diameter is
2.5 times of the cutting object.
Inspect the machine for worn, loose, or damaged parts. Never operate the machine that is
damaged, improperly adjusted, or is not completely and securely assembled. Make sure
that the saw chain stops moving when the throttle control trigger is released.
WHEN STARTING THE ENGINE
Always hold the machine firmly with both hands when the engine is running. Use a firm grip
with thumb and fingers encircling the handles.
Keep all parts of your body away from the machine when the engine is running.
Before starting the engine, make sure the saw chain is not contacting anything.
OPERATION
Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil or fuel mixture.
Never touch the muffler, spark plug or other metallic parts of the
engine while the engine is in operation or immediately after
stopping the engine. Doing so could result in serious burns or
electrical shock.
Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and saplings
because slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped
toward you or pull you off balance.
When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for spring back
so that you will not be struck when the tension in the wood fibers is
released.
Check the tree for dead branches that could fall during the felling
operation.
Always shut of the engine before setting it down.
