GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
with cutting equipment that is blunt or faulty (wrong type
or badly sharpened) will increase the vibration level.
Cutting equipment
This section describes how to choose and maintain your
cutting equipment in order to:
•
•
Reduce the risk of kickback.
Reduce the risk of the saw chain breaking or jumping
off the bar.
•
•
•
Obtain optimal cutting performance.
Extend the life of cutting equipment.
Avoid increasing vibration levels.
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
General rules
•
Only use cutting equipment recommended by us!
See instructions under the heading Technical data.
symptoms may be increased in cold
temperatures.
•
Keep the chain’s cutting teeth properly
sharpened! Follow our instructions and use the
recommended file gauge. A damaged or badly
sharpened chain increases the risk of accidents.
Stop switch
Use the stop switch to switch off the engine.
•
Maintain the correct depth gauge setting! Follow
our instructions and use the recommended depth
gauge clearance. Too large a clearance increases
the risk of kickback.
Muffler
The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum
and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user.
In areas with a hot, dry climate there is a high risk of fires.
•
•
Keep the chain properly tensioned! If the chain is
slack it is more likely to jump off and lead to increased
wear on the bar, chain and drive sprocket.
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!
!
CAUTION! The muffler gets very hot during and after
use.This also applies during idling. Be aware of the fire
hazard, especially when working near flammable
substances and/or vapours.
Keep cutting equipment well lubricated and
properly maintained! A poorly lubricated chain is
more likely to break and lead to increased wear on the
bar, chain and drive sprocket.
WARNING! Never use a saw without a
muffler, or with a damaged muffler. A
damaged muffler may substantially
increase the noise level and the fire
hazard. Keep fire fighting equipment
handy.
