Basic safety rules

Never refuel the machine while the engine is running.
•
Look around you:
Make sure there is plenty of ventilation when refuelling or
mixing fuel (gasoline and 2-stroke oil).
-
To ensure that people, animals or other things cannot
affect your control of the machine.
•
Move the machine at least 3 m from the refuelling point
before starting it.
-
To make sure that none of the above might come
within reach of your saw or be injured by falling trees.
•
Never start the machine:
Follow the instructions above, but do not use a chain saw in a
situation where you cannot call for help in case of an accident.
1
If you have spilt fuel or chain oil on the machine.Wipe
off the spillage and allow remaining fuel to evaporate.
•
Do not use the machine in bad weather, such as dense
fog, heavy rain, strong wind, intense cold, etc.Working in
bad weather is tiring and often brings added risks, such as
icy ground, unpredictable felling direction, etc.
2
If you have spilt fuel on yourself or your clothes,
change your clothes.Wash any part of your body that
has come in contact with fuel. Use soap and water.
3
If the machine is leaking fuel.Check regularly for leaks
from the fuel cap and fuel lines.
•
Take great care when removing small branches and avoid
cutting bushes (i.e. cutting many small branches at the
same time). Small branches can be grabbed by the chain
and thrown back at you, causing serious injury.
Transport and storage
•
Always store the chain saw and fuel so that there is no risk
of leakages or fumes coming into contact with sparks or
naked flames from electrical equipment, electric motors,
relays/switches, boilers and the like.
•
•
Always store fuel in an approved container designed for
that purpose.
For longer periods of storage or for transport of the chain
saw, the fuel and chain oil tanks should be emptied. Ask
where you can dispose of waste fuel and chain oil at your
local gas station.
