could result in serious personal injury.

Do not rely exclusively upon the safety

devices built into your saw. As a chain

saw user, you should take several steps

to keep your cutting jobs free from ac-

cident or injury.

Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/

or incorrect operating procedures or condi-

tions and can be avoided by taking proper

precautions as given below:

Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs

and fingers encircling the chain

saw handles, with both hands on

the saw and position your body

and arm to allow you to resist

kickback forces. Kickback forces can

be controlled by the operator, if proper

precautions are taken. Do not let go of

the chain saw.

Do not overreach and do not cut

above shoulder height. This helps

prevent unintended tip contact and ena-

bles better control of the chain saw in

unexpected situations.

Only use replacement bars and

chains specified by the manufac-

turer. Incorrect replacement bars and

chains may cause chain breakage and/

or kickback.

Follow the manufacturer´s sharp-

ening and maintenance instruc-

tions for the saw chain. Decreasing

the depth gauge height can lead to

increased kickback.

Further safety directions

• If the supply cord of this power tool is

damaged, it must be replaced by a spe-

cially prepared cord available through

the service organization.

• Lay the extension cable in such a way

that it will not be caught by branches

or similar during sawing.

• Use a surge protector with a release cur-

rent of 30 mA or less.

• Comply carefully with maintenance,

control and service instructions in

this manual. Damaged protective de-

vices and parts have to be repared or

changed except as noted otherwise in

this manual.

Operation startup

Always wear protective

gloves when working with

the chainsaw and employ

only original parts. Pull out

the power plug before doing

any work on the chainsaw

itself -– injury hazard!

The tool is completely assembled on deliv-

ery.Before you start up the electric chain-

saw, adjust the chain, fill up with chain oil

and check the automatic lubrication and

chain brake function.

Note that the saw can re-oil.

Please note that the saw re-oils after use

and oil may leak out if it is stored on its

side or on the head. This is a normal

process due to the necessary ventilation

opening on the upper edge of the tank and

does not constitute a reason for complaint.

As each saw is checked during production

and tested with oil, a small residue may

be in the tank despite draining, which may

slightly dirty the housing with oil in transit.

Please clean the housing with a cloth.
