Starting the unit
Be particularly careful to observe the following precautions when starting
the unit:
• Always ensure all handles and guards are fitted. Keep the handles dry,
clean, and free of oil.
• Check that none of the nuts and bolts are loose.
• Check that the guide bar is not damaged or excessively worn. If you find
any abnormalities, do not use the product.
• Operate the chainsaw only in well-ventilated areas. Oil mist (from chain
saw lubrication) or saw dust is harmful to health.
• Leave plenty of space around the product and do not allow people or
animals near it.
• Never operate a chainsaw when you are alone. Arrange to have someone
remain within calling distance in case you need help.
• Remove obstructions, if any.
• Make sure that the saw chain is not touching the ground or any obstacles.
Failure to observe the precautions could cause an accident or injury, or
even lead to a fatality.
Once the unit has started, check for abnormal vibrations and
sounds.
Check that there are no abnormal vibrations or sounds once the unit starts.
Do not use the product if there are abnormal vibrations or sounds. Contact
your dealer to have it repaired. Accidents involving parts that fall or shatter
off can cause wounds or serious injury.
Disconnect the battery:
• whenever the machine is left by the user
• before clearing a blockage
• before checking, cleaning or working on the machine
• after striking a foreign object to inspect the machine for damage.
