Voltor V 20-E Manual De Instrucciones página 40

Pay attention when cutting wood that splits easily.
Wood splinters could be propelled in any direction.
Risk of corporal damage therefore exists.
Never be on top of the branch that you are cutting.
Maintain the chain always well sharpened. Sharpen as
described in this manual.
If you carry out several cuts without letting go of the
machine, always turn off the machine between cuts.
Do not cut with the tip of the bar. There is a high risk
of rebound and kick back
and therefore you should
never cut with the tip of
the bar.
Always regulate the
machine on a plain and stable surface.
Do not use accessories not recommended by the
manufacturer as these could cause severe damage to
the user, to other people nearby and to the machine.
Never let the machine drop and never try to stop the
chain by closing in on a piece of wood or any other object.
7.1. HOLDING THE MACHINE
Whilst you work, always hold the machine firmly with
both hands and by the handles provided to this effect.

When cutting, place the claw

the trunk.
Attention!

damages (that could be
mortal) to the user or
those surrounding him,
never use the machine
one handed.
7.2. SHARPENING THE CHAIN

• When cutting, instead of the log splitting, you see
small shavings.
To sharpen the chain follow instruction in point 8.2
