The machine must not be used by young people under the age
of 18 or by users who are not adequately familiar with the
operation of the machine.
•
Ensure that the machine is completely and properly assembled.
•
Check that the machine is in perfect working order, in particular

•
Never start the machine and never leave it running if you are in
an enclosed room or building. The inhalation of exhaust gases
may be fatal. Use the machine outdoors only.
•
Do not take hold of the engine or silencer. These become very
hot during use. They remain hot for a short time even when the

machine when you pull the starter cable. User and machine must
be in a stable position before the machine is started. Follow the
instructions for starting and stopping the engine.

There must be no other persons or animals within a
circumference of 15 m around the cutting area, as they may be
injured by ejected objects.
•
Never work in poor light or weather conditions.
•
Felling and limbing work may be performed by trained persons
only! Avoid any work for which you are not adequately qualified!
Imprudent handling of the machine may result in extremely
serious to fatal injuries!
•
Saw wood only. Do not use the chain saw for work for which it is
not designed.

Avoid sawing in bushes, as small branches will stick in the saw
chain and may be ejected in an uncontrolled manner.
•
Ensure that you have a firm and secure footing in every working
position. Be especially careful when working on sloping ground!
•
Hold the machine firmly with both hands and use the harness.
Grip the rear handle with your right hand and the hand grip with
your left hand, even if you are lefthanded. Do not release the
handles!
•
Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil and grease. Greasy
and oily handles are slippery and will cause loss of control.
•
When the saw is running, keep all body parts away from the saw
chain. Before starting the saw, ensure that the saw chain
touches nothing.
•
Never saw above shoulder height! Do not bend forward or lean
backward!

Never work on ladders, on trees or in other positions in which
you do not have a firm footing.
