GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Chain catcher
with cutting equipment that is blunt or faulty (wrong type
or badly sharpened) will increase the vibration level.
The chain catcher is designed to catch the chain if it snaps
or jumps off. This should not happen if the chain is
properly tensioned (see instructions under the heading
Assembly) and if the bar and chain are properly serviced
and maintained (see instructions under the heading
General working instructions).
WARNING! Overexposure to vibration
can lead to circulatory damage or nerve
!
damage in people who have impaired
circulation. Contact your doctor if you
experience symptoms of overexposure
to vibration. Such symptoms include
numbness, loss of feeling, tingling,
pricking, pain, loss of strength, changes
in skin colour or condition.These
symptoms normally appear in the
fingers, hands or wrists.These
Right hand guard
symptoms may be increased in cold
temperatures.
Apart from protecting your hand if the chain jumps or
snaps, the right hand guard stops branches and twigs
from interfering with your grip on the rear handle.
Stop switch
Use the stop switch to switch off the engine.
Vibration damping system
Your machine is equipped with a vibration damping
system that is designed to reduce vibration and make
operation easier.
Muffler
The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum
and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user.
WARNING! The exhaust fumes from the
engine are hot and may contain sparks
which can start a fire. Never start the
machine indoors or near combustible
material!
!
The machine′s vibration damping system reduces the
transfer of vibration between the engine unit/cutting
equipment and the machine′s handle unit.The body of the
chain saw, including the cutting equipment, is insulated
from the handles by vibration damping units.
In areas with a hot, dry climate there is a high risk of fires.
These areas are sometimes subject to government rules
Cutting hardwoods (most broadleaf trees) creates more
vibration than cutting softwoods (most conifers). Cutting
