Additional safety instructions for chain saw

Keep the chain saw out of reach of children. It is not a toy.
Please note the warning symbols. They mark all those instructions which are important for safety reasons. Observe these instructions as failure to do so could result in serious injury1
The chain saw must be used only by one person at a time. Make sure bystanders do not stay in the vicinity of the chain saw’s work area.
Check the safe operating condition of the chain saw, in particular the guide bar and the saw chain, before each operation.
Always have a safe stand when working with the saw.
Hold the machine firmly and securely when switching on.
Make sure the guide bar and the saw chain must be free when switched on and must not come into contact with the workpiece to be cut.
Guide the chain saw onto the workpiece only when switched on. Otherwise there is a risk of kickback if the saw chain gets caught in the workpiece.
When the cut is completed, switch off the machine and then pull the saw chain out of the cut only after it has come to a standstill. This way you can avoid kickback.
Clamp the material to be processed well. Do not support the workpiece with your hand or foot. Do not touch objects or the floor with the saw running. Danger of kickback.
When sawing converted timber and thin branches always use a strong support, such as a sawing trestle. Do not stack timber pieces.
Before cutting l ogs, secure the logs in position.
When working on sloping ground, make sure to work facing upwards.
Be particularly careful when cutting splintered wood. Splinters of wood can be torn along by the saw chain and increase the risk of injury!
Foreign objects such as nails, screws, metal parts, sand, etc. lead to increased wear on the guide bar and saw chain.
A blunt saw chain can cause overheating and damage to the motor.
Always pull out the battery when checking the chain tension, to re-tighten it, to mount the saw chain and to eliminate faults! Also remove the battery if you do not use the machine temporarily.

Safety instructions for chain saws

General chain saw safety warnings:

Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain when the chain saw is operating. Before you start the chain saw, make sure the saw chain is not contacting anything. A moment of inattention while operating chain saws may cause entanglement of your clothing or body with the saw chain.
Always hold the chain saw with your right hand on the rear handle and your left hand on the front handle. Holding the chain saw with a reversed hand configuration increases the risk of personal injury and should never be done.
Hold the chain saw by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the saw chain may contact hidden wiring. Saw chains contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the chain saw “live”‘ and could give the operator an electric shock.
Wear hearing and eye protection. Further protective equipment for head, hands, legs and feet is recommended.
Adequate protective equipment will reduce personal injury from flying debris or accidental contact with the saw chain.
Do not operate a chain saw in a tree.
Operation of a chain saw while up in a tree may result in personal injury.
Always keep proper footing and operate the chain saw only when standing on fixed, secure and level surface.
Slippery or unstable surfaces may cause a loss of balance or control of the chain saw.
When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for spring back. When the tension in the wood fibres is released, the spring loaded limb may strike the operator and/or throw the chain saw out of control.
Use extreme caution when cutting brush and saplings. The slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance.
Carry the chain saw by the handle with the chain saw switched off and away from your body. When transporting or storing the chain saw, always fit the guide bar cover Proper handling of the chain saw will reduce the likelihood of accidental contact with the moving saw chain.
Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning and changing the bar and chain. Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may either break or increase the chance for kickback.
Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for purposes not intended. For example: do not use chain saw for cutting metal, plastic, masonry or non-wood building materials. Use of the chain saw for operations different than intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Follow all instructions when clearing jammed material, storing or servicing the chain saw. Make sure the switch is off and the battery pack is removed.
Unexpected actuat ion of the chain saw while clearing jammed material or servicing may result in serious personal injury.
Before starting work, check that the chain saw is in proper working order and that its condition complies with the safety regulations. Check in particular that:
– The chain brake is working properly;
– The run-down brake is working properly;
– The bar and the sprocket cover are fitted correctly;
– The chain has been sharpened and tensioned in accordance with the regulations.
Do not start the chain saw with the chain cover being installed on it. Starting the chain saw with the chain cover being installed on it may cause the chain cover to thrown out forward resulting in personal injury and damage to objects around the operator.

Causes and operator prevention of kickback

Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the operator. Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator.
Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the saw which 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 accident or injury.
(See Fig. B). Kickback is the result of chain saw misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below:

Maintain a firm grip, with thumb and fingers encircling the saw handle 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 saw.
Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder height. This helps prevent unintended tip contact and enables better control of the chain saw in unexpected situations.
Only use replacement guide bars and saw chains specified by the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement guide bars and saw chains may cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw chain. Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to increased kickback.

Before the first use

Intended use

The chain saw has been exclusively designed for pruning and sawing small and medium trees.
The intended use also includes an operation following the operating instructions.

Use

Mounting/ changing the saw chain and guide bar

(See Fig. F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M).

Always wear gloves when handling the saw chain.
Remove the batteries from the machine.

The saw chain and the guide bar ! are still hot just after the operation.
Let them cool down enough before carrying out any work on the tool.

To mount/change the saw chain, perform the following steps:

Pull the lever (5) up while pressing its edge (See Fig. F).
Turn the adjusting dial (6) to “-” direction to release the saw chain tension (See Fig. G).
Turn the lever (5) counter-clockwise until the sprocket cover (18) comes off (See Fig. H).
Remove the sprocket cover then remove the saw chain (4) and guide bar (3) from the chain saw body.

To install the saw chain, perform the following steps:

Make sure the direction of the chain is correct. The arrow mark on the chain shows the direction of the chain (See Fig. 1).
Fit in one end of the saw chain on the top of the guide bar (3) and the other end around the sprocket (19).
Rest the guide bar in place on the chain saw.
Turn the adjusting dial to”-” direction to slide the adjusting pin (J1) in the direction of arrow (See Fig. J).

Do not tighten the saw chain too LU, much. Excessively high tension of saw chain may cause breakage of saw chain, wear of the guide bar and breakage of the adjusting dial.
A chain which is too loose can jump off the bar and it may cause an injury accident.

The saw chain may become loose after many hours of use. From time to time check the saw chain tension before use.

Press and fully open the lever (5) until it clicks. Turn it counter-clockwise a little to loosen sprocket cover lightly (See Fig. H).
Lift up the guide bar tip slightly and adjust the chain tension. Turn the adjusting dial (6) to the”-” direction to loosen, turn to the”+” direction to tighten. (See Fig. M).
Keep holding the guide bar lightly and tighten the sprocket cover. Make sure that the saw chain does not loosen at the lower side.
Return the lever to the original position (See Fig. L).
Make sure the saw chain fits snugly against the lower side of the bar.

Lubrication

The saw chain is automatically lubricated when the tool is in operation. Check the amount of remaining oil in the oil tank periodically.
To refill the tank, lay the chain saw on its side and remove the oil tank cap (13). The proper amount of oil is 200 ml. After refilling the tank, make sure that the oil tank cap is tightened securely. (See Fig. N).
When filling the chain oil for the first time, or refilling the tank after it has been completely emptied, add oil up to the bottom edge of the filler neck. The oil delivery may otherwise be impaired.
NOTICE: Use saw chain oil exclusively for chain saws or equivalent oil available in the market.
NOTICE: Never use oil including dust and particles or volatile oil.
NOTICE: When pruning trees, use botanical oil. Mineral oil may harm trees.

Working with the chain saw

Caution!

The first time user should, as a minimumpractice, do cutting logs on a saw-horseor cradle.
When sawing precut timber, use a safe support (saw horse or cradle). Do not steady the workpiece with your foot, and do not allow anyone else to hold or steady it.
Secure round pieces against rotation.
Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain when the motor is operating.
Hold the chain saw firmly with both hands when the motor is running.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

NOTICE:

Never toss or drop the tool.
Do not cover the vents of the tool.

Bring the bottom edge of the chain saw body into contact with the branch to be cut before switching on. Otherwise it may cause the guide bar to wobble, resulting in injury to operator. Saw the wood to be cut by just moving it down by using the weight of the chain saw (See Fig. O).
If you cannot cut the timber right through with a single stroke: Apply light pressure to the handle and continue sawing and draw the chain saw back a little; then apply the spike bumper a little lower and finish the cut by raising the handle (See Fig. P).

Bucking

(See Fig. P).

Rest the bottom edge of the chain saw body on the wood to be cut.
With the saw chain running, saw into the wood while using the rear handle to raise the saw and the front one to guide it. Use the spike bumper as a pivot.
Continue the cut by applying slight pressure to the front handle, easing the saw back slightly. Move the spike bumper further down the timber and raise the front handle again.

NOTICE: When making several cuts, switch the chain saw off between cuts.
Caution! If the upper edge of the bar is used for cutting, the chain saw may be deflected in your direction if the chain becomes trapped. For this reason, cut with the lower edge, so that the saw will be deflected away from your body (See Fig. V).

Changing the saw chain

Only handle the saw chain with gloves and remove the battery first!
Inspect the saw chain and the guide bar for damage or signs of wear.
Never put a new saw chain on a worn guide bar.
Let each new saw chain break-in first!
When attaching the saw chain, observe the running direction!

Sharpen the saw chain

The saw teeth must be sharpened if the sawdust becomes powdery, if additional force is required for the incision, if a straight incision is no longer possible or if the vibrations become stronger.
Blunt saw chains should be re-sharpened.
To sharpen the chain use a chain sharpener, make sure you sharpen the chain at a correct angle.
Or have the chain re-sharpened professionally (advised).
Replace the saw chain if there is considerable damage that cannot be repaired by filing.

Cleaning the guide bar

(See Fig. Q, R, S).

Thoroughly clean the notch of the guide bar.
Replace the guide bar if the guide groove is damaged or worn and the saw chainhas too much lateral space.

Small dust or particles may be built up in the oil discharge hole (S2) during operation.

These dust or particles may impair the oil to flow and cause an insufficient lubrication on the whole saw chain. When a poor chain oil delivery occurs at the top of guide bar, clean the oil discharge hole (S2) as follows.

Remove the sprocket cover (18) and saw chain from the tool.
Remove the small dust or particles (See Fig. 5).

Replacing the sprocket

Before fitting a new saw chain, check the condition of the sprocket (19) (See Fig. T).
A worn sprocket will damage a new saw chain. Have the sprocket replaced in this case
Always fit a new locking ring (U1) when replacing the sprocket (19) (See Fig. U).

Maintenance, cleaning and storing

For best performance, always keep the saw chain and the chain saw in good order.
Remove the battery pack from the tool before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance.

Clean the sprocket area with a brush or compressed air. (See Fig. R).
Use a cloth, a paintbrush or a brush to remove dust and wood splinters. Always keep the ventilation slots clean and free from obstructions. We recommend that you clean your electric power tool immediately after each use.
Clean the electric power tool regularly with a damp cloth and somewhat soft soap. Do not use any cleaning or solvent materials; these can attack the device’s plastic components.
Make sure that no water can get inside the electric power tool.
Do not let liquids of any kind enter the chain saw.
From time to time check that all screws are firmly secured.
Store the chain saw and the accessory indoors in a dry place that is protected from dust, dirt and extreme temperatures.
Store the chain saw out of reach of children and persons in need of supervision.
