m CAUTION! If the machine has not cooled down
sufficiently, the fuel could ignite during refuelling and
cause severe burns.
• Ensure that the tank is not overfilled. If you spill
any fuel, it has to be wiped away immediately and
the machine must be cleaned.
• Always close the screw plug on the fuel tank prop-
erly, so loosening is prevented from vibrations dur-
ing operation.
m DANGER
Never refuel the machine close to an open flame.
Special safety regulations for the use of
internal combustion motors
m DANGER
Internal combustion motors are a particular danger
during operation and refuelling. Always read and fol-
low the warnings. Non-compliance can lead to se-
vere and even lethal injuries.
1. Do not make any modifications to the machine.
2. m CAUTION!
Risk of poisoning, Exhaust fumes, fuel, Lubri-
cating oil vapor, sawdust and lubricants are poi-
sonous. Exhaust fumes must not be inhaled.
3. m CAUTION!
Risk of burns!, Do not touch the exhaust system
and the drive motor.
4. Do not use the machine in unventilated rooms or
easily flammable environments.
5. m Risk of explosion!
Never use the machine in rooms with easily flam-
mable substances.
6. During transport, secure the tool against sliding
and tilting.
7. Ensure that no fuel is spilled on the motor or the
exhaust during refuelling.
8. Repairs and setting work must be carried out by
authorised specialists.
9. Do not touch mechanically moving or hot parts.
Do not remove protective covers.
10. The values specified in Technical Data under
sound power level (L ) and sound pressure level
wA
(L ) are emission levels and do not necessarily
pA
represent safe working levels. As there is a con-
nection between emission and immission levels,
it cannot be used reliably to determine potential-
ly required, additional safety measures. Factors
influencing the current employee's immission
level include characteristics of the working en-
vironment, other noise sources etc. such as the
number of machines and other nearby process-
es and the time frame the user is exposed to the
noise. The reliable immission level can also vary
by country.

However, this information will give the machine's
user the opportunity to carry out a better risk as-
sessment.
11. Never put objects into the venting slots. This al-
so applies when the machine is turned off. Non-
compliance can cause injuries or damage to the
machine.
12. Keep the tool free from oil, dirt and other contam-
inants.
13. Ensure that sound absorbers and air filters func-
tion properly. These parts act as flame protection
in the event of misfire.
14. Turn off the motor:
- Whenever you leave the machine
- Before refuelling.
15. Never use the choke lever to stop the motor.
5.4 Safety functions of the chainsaw
(Fig.1)
1 SAW-CHAIN WITH LOW KICKBACK helps you
with specially developed safety devices to reduce
kickback forces so you can absorb them better.
3 FRONT HAND GUARD protects the left hand of
the operator if it slides off the front handle when the
saw is running.
3 CHAIN BRAKE is a safety function to reduce injury
based on kickback by stopping a running saw-chain
within milliseconds. It is activated by the FRONT
HAND GUARD.
8 THROTTLE TRIGGER LOCKOUT prevents acci-
dental acceleration of the motor. The throttle can be
activated only when the throttle trigger interlock is
pressed.
11 ON/OFF SWITCH immediately stops the mo-
tor when it is switched off. The stop switch must be
turned to ON to start the motor (again).
18 CHAIN CATCHER reduces the risk of injury if
the saw-chain breaks or slips when the motor is run-
ning. The chain catcher is designed to catch a flail-
ing chain.
m NOTICE
Familiarise yourself with the saw and its components.
5.5 Warning notices for chainsaws
• When the saw is running, keep all body parts
away from the saw-chain. Before starting the
saw, ensure that nothing touches the saw-
chain. When working with a chainsaw, a moment
of carelessness can cause clothing or body parts
to be caught by the saw-chain.
• Do not work with this chainsaw on a tree un-
less you are especially trained for this. In the
event of improper use of a chainsaw on a tree,
there is a risk of injury.
