▪ Keep your hands away from the sawing area. Do not reach
under the workpiece. Contact with the saw chain may result in
injury.
▪ Guide the multi saw onto the workpiece only when switched on.
Otherwise there is a risk of kick-back if the saw chain gets
caught in the workpiece.
▪ When sawing, the base plate must always faces against the
workpiece. The saw chain can become jammed and lead to loss
of control over the machine.
▪ When the cut is completed, switch off the machine and then pull
the saw chain out of the cut only after it has come to a standstill.
This way you can avoid kick-back.
▪ Clamp the material to be processed well. Do not support the
workpiece with your hand or foot. Do not touch objects or the
floor with the saw running. Danger of kick-back.
▪ When sawing converted timber and thin branches always use a
strong support, such as a sawing trestle. Do not stack timber
pieces.
▪ Before cutting logs, secure the logs in position.
▪ When working on sloping ground, make sure to work facing
upwards.
▪ Be particularly careful when cutting splintered wood. Splinters of
wood can be torn along by the saw chain and increase the risk of
injury!
▪ Foreign objects such as nails, screws, metal parts, sand, etc.
lead to increased wear on the guide bar and saw chain.
▪ A blunt saw chain can cause overheating and damage to the
motor.
▪ Always pull out the battery when checking the chain tension, to
re-tighten it, to mount the saw chain and to eliminate faults! Also
remove the battery if you do not use the machine temporarily.
