Intended Use

The machine is intended for cutting and trimming hedges and bushes in domestic use.

Hedge Trimmer Safety Warnings

• Keep all parts of the body away from the blade. Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut when blades are moving. Blades continue to move after the switch is turned off. A moment of inattention while operating the hedge trimmer may result in serious personal injury.

• Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the blade stopped and take care not to operate any power switch. Proper carrying of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of inadvertent starting and resultant personal injury from the blades.

• When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer, always fit the blade cover. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of personal injury from the blades.

• When clearing jammed material or servicing the unit, make sure all power switches are off and the battery pack is removed or disconnected. Unexpected actuation of the hedge trimmer while clearing jammed material or servicing may result in serious personal injury.

• Hold the hedge trimmer by insulated gripping surfaces only because the blade may contact hidden wiring. Blades contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the hedge trimmer
  “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.

• Keep all power cords and cables away from the cutting area. Power cords or cables may be hidden in hedges or bushes and can be accidentally cut by the blade.

• Do not use the hedge trimmer in bad weather conditions, especially when there is a risk of lightning. This decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.

Chainsaw Safety Warnings

• When the chainsaw is in operation, keep a safe distance between your body and the chainsaw. Before starting the chain saw, make sure that the chain is not in contact with anything. During operation of the chain saw, even the slightest distraction of the operator may cause clothing or body parts to be caught in the chain.
• Always hold the rear handle of the chain saw with your right hand and the front handle of the chain saw with your left hand. Doing the opposite will increase the risk of personal injury. Therefore, never grasp the rear handle with your left hand and grasp the front handle with your right hand.
• Since the chain may touch hidden wires, when operating the power tool only hold the insulated handle. When the chain comes into contact with a ”live” wire, the exposed metal parts of the tools may also become ”live” and lead to the operator getting electrocuted.
• Wear protective glasses and hearing protection. It is recommended to also wear protective equipment to protect the head, hands, legs and feet. Protective clothing will reduce the risk of personal injury caused by flying debris or accidentally touching the chain.
• Do not operate the chainsaw on a tree. Operating the chain saw on a tree may cause personal injury.
• Make sure to stand firm and on a fixed, safe and level surface before operating the chain saw. Slippery or unstable surfaces such as ladders may cause the operator to lose balance or lose control of the chain saw.
• When cutting a branch under tension, beware of kickback. When the tension on the wood fibre is released, the elastic force on the branch may impact the operator, or the chain saw may cause it to lose control.
• When cutting shrubs and saplings, be especially careful because slender materials may jam the chain and lead to injury.
• Before carrying the chain saw, turn it off and hold the front handle firmly. When transporting or storing the chain saw, be sure to close the guide cover. Properly operating the chain saw will reduce the possibility of accidental contact with a running chain.
• Lubricate, tension the chain, and replace accessories according to the instructions. Improperly tensioning or lubricating the chain may cause the chain to break or increase the possibility of kickback.
• Keep the handle dry, clean, and free of oil and grease. Greasy handles are prone to slippage.
• Only use the chain saw for cutting wood. Do not use the chain saw for purposes other than the ones intended. For example: Do not use the chain saw to cut plastic, stone, or non-wood building materials. The use of the chain saw for operations other than the intended ones will result in tool damage or physical injury.

Kickback – Causes and Preventive Measures

• If the head of the guide bar touches an object and the chain stops suddenly, kickback may occur.
• In some cases when the head of the guide bar touches an object, a sudden reaction force will be formed, which may cause the guide bar to bounce up and rush towards the operator, causing injury.
• Squeezing the chain along the upper part of the guide bar may quickly push the guide bar back toward the operator. Any of these reaction forces may cause the operator to lose control of the chain saw, resulting in injury.
• Do not rely solely on the safety equipment installed on the chainsaw.
• As a chain saw operator, you should take a variety of measures to prevent accidents or personal injury during cutting operations.
• Improper operation of the chain saw, incorrect operation steps or operating conditions will cause rebound. Observe the precautions described below:
  • Keep a firm grip and hold the chain saw handle with both thumbs and the rest of your fingers. Adjust the position of the body and arms to prevent rebound forces. If the correct precautions are followed, the operator will be able to better control the tool, thus minimizing the risk of injury in case kickback occurs.
  • Do not extend the tool too far and do not hold the chain saw above your shoulders during operation. This will help to prevent the head of the guide bar from touching the object and ensure better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
  • Use only replacement guides and chains specified by the manufacturer. Using inappropriate replacement guide bars and chains may cause the chain to break and/or the guide bar to kickback.
  • Follow the manufacturer’s polishing and maintenance instructions to maintain the chain. Reducing the depth and height will cause frequent kickbacks.
