Do not operate the chainsaw with one hand! Serious injuries to the operator, assistants and others can result
from operation with one hand. The chainsaw is designed for two-handed operation. Start work only after
freeing the work area from unnecessary objects.
Before starting the device, make sure that the chain is not in contact with anything.
During saw transportation, the motor must be turned off with the bar and chain facing back. When carrying the
chainsaw, always place the cover on the bar.
Be especially careful when trimming bushes and seedlings, as their elastic branches can fall into a chain,
hit or unbalance you.
When cutting a branch that is exposed to external load, beware of the impact after removing the load.
Before sawing, check the wood for foreign objects such as nails. Be sure to remove them before cutting.
Use the device only for its intended purpose. The saw is intended for cutting wood only. Do not use the saw
for other purposes not specified herein. For example, for cutting plastics, masonry, etc. Before work, clean
and wipe the handles.
Do not cut above shoulder level, bend over too much and touch the ground with a saw chain. When sawing
boards and logs, it is necessary to use a reliable stand (framing). Do not let the other person hold the log while
sawing and never hold the log with your foot.
Do not work in low light conditions and on steep slopes.
The saw should be guided in such a way that no part of the body is in the cutting plane (Fig. 1). Never use
a saw as a planer.
Be careful! There is a danger of rebound when working with a chainsaw. A rebound occurs if the upper part
of the saw blade (especially the upper quarter) accidentally touches a tree or other solid objects (Fig. 2).
It is necessary to observe not only the general safety requirements given in this section, but also the special
instructions contained in other sections.
