− chain change
− Leaving the machine (also during temporary inter-
ruption)
Maintain your chain saw with care:
− Comply with the maintenance instructions and the
advices for lubrication and for the tool change.
− Keep your tools sharp and clean in order to be able to
work better and safer.
− Keep the handholds dry and free from resin, oil and
grease.
Check the machine for possible damage:
− Before continuing to use the machine, the protective
devices must be inspected to ensure that they work
perfectly and with their intended function. Only operate the
machine with complete and correctly attached safety
equipment and do not alter anything on the machine that
could impair the safety.
− Check whether the movable parts function perfectly and do
not stick or whether the parts are damaged. All parts must
be correctly installed and fulfil all conditions to ensure
perfect operation of the saw
− Damaged guards and parts must be properly repaired or
exchanged by a recognized, specialist workshop; insofar
as nothing else is stated in the instructions for use.
− Damaged or illegible security labels have to be replaced.
Do not allow any tool key to be plugged in!
Before switching on, check always that all tools are
removed.
Store unused equipment in a dry, locked place out of the
reach of children.
Do not carry out repair operations on the machine other
than those described in section "Maintenance" but contact
the manufacturer or authorized customer service centre
Repairs to other parts of the machine must be carried out
by the manufacturer or one of his customer service points.
Use only original spare parts, accessories and special
accessory parts. Accidents can arise for the user through
the use of other spare parts. The manufacturer is not liable
for any damage or injury resulting from such action.
Safety instructions -
Safe handling with fuels
Fuels and fuel vapours are inflammable and may
cause serious injury on the skin or when inhaled.
Therefore be careful and provide sufficient
ventilation when handling with fuels.
Do not smoke and avoid open flames when fuelling.
Wear gloves when fuelling.
Do not fuel in closed rooms.
Stop the chain saw and allow it to cool down.
Avoid spilling of fuel or oil. Clean the chain saw immediately
when you have spilled fuel or oil. Change your clothes
immediately when you have spilled fuel or oil on them.
Make sure that no fuel can come into the soil.
Carefully close the tank cap after fuelling and check that it
does not get loose during operation.

.
Check that there is no leakage on the tank cap and fuel
lines. If there are leaks this product may not be started.
Never use a saw with damaged ignition cable and spark
plug connector. Risk of sparking.
Only transport and store fuels in containers approved and
identified for this.
Keep children away from fuels.
Do not handle and store fuels close to combustible and
highly inflammable materials as well as sparks and open
flames.
Go away at least three meters from the fuelling place to start
the chain saw.

Additional advices for sawing trunks
Never put the trunk for sawing on the ground.
+
Support the trunk in such manner that the cut does not close
and the saw chain jams. Use a safe base (e.g. sawhorse).
Avoid contact to ground with the guide bar tip or saw chain.
+ Adapt shorter trunks before sawing and clamp them firmly.
+ Avoid cutting of thin bosk and lumber. The chain saw is not
suitable for those works.
+ Carry out longitudinal cuts with special care as the claw
stopper is not used. Avoid saw backstroke by guiding the
saw with a small angle.
+ When working at a slope take always the position above or
on the side of the trunk or the lying sawing material
respectively. Pay attention to rolling trunks.
Notes on how to saw wood under tension
If perches, trees or wood under tension become free of tension
by sawing extreme caution is demanded. The sawing material
can react completely uncontrolled and result in heavy injuries or
death.
Such work may only be carried out by instructed
specialists.
/
/
/
For all works set always first of all on the pressure side
the releasing cut and then the dividing cut
chain saw can jam or strike back.
Upper side of wood under tensile stress
Place one cut (one third of the diameter of the trunk) from
the bottom up.
Then place a second cut on the same point from top which
cuts through the trunk.
Underside of wood under tensile stress
Place one cut (one third of the diameter of the trunk) from
top to bottom.
Then place a second cut on the same point from bottom
which cuts through the trunk.
