To reduce the risk of accidents, take a
break in good time to avoid tiredness or
exhaustion
The dusts (e.g. sawdust) produced
during operation may be dangerous to
health. If dust levels are very high, wear
a suitable respirator.
To reduce the risk of fire, do not smoke
while operating or standing near your
power tool.
Check the saw chain at regular short
intervals during operation or
immediately if there is a noticeable
change in cutting behavior:
Switch off the power tool, wait for
–
the chain to come to a standstill,
remove the battery.
Check condition and proper
–
mounting.
Check sharpness.

Do not touch the chain while the power
tool is switched on. If the chain becomes
jammed by an obstruction, switch off the

Your power tool is equipped with a
system designed to quickly stop the saw
chain – it comes to an immediate
standstill as soon as you release the
trigger switch.
Check this function at regular short
intervals. Do not operate your chainsaw
if the chain continues to run after you
release the trigger switch – see
"Coasting Brake" – risk of injury. Contact
your servicing dealer.
If your power tool is subjected to
unusually high loads for which it was not
designed (e.g. heavy impact or a fall),
always check that it is in good condition
before continuing work – see also
"Before Starting Work". Make sure the
safety devices are working properly. Do
not continue operating your power tool if
it is damaged. In case of doubt, have the
unit checked by your servicing dealer.
After Finishing Work
Always clean dust and dirt off the power
tool – do not use any grease solvents for
this purpose.
Holding and Controlling the Unit
Always hold your power tool firmly with
both hands: Right hand on the rear
handle, even if you are left-handed. To
ensure safe control, wrap your fingers
tightly around both handles.
