engineering and appearance of our
products periodically.
Therefore, some changes, modifications
and improvements may not be covered
in this manual.
Safety Precautions and
Working Techniques
Special safety precau -
tions must be observed
when using this machine
because the work goes
faster than with an axe
and a hand saw, because
the chain runs at very
high speeds, and
because the cutters are
extremely sharp
It is important that you
carefully read the entire
Instruction Manual before
using the machine for the
first time and keep it in a
safe place for future ref -
erence. Non-compliance
with the Instruction Man -
ual may cause serious or
even fatal injury.
Observe the national safety regulations
issued, for example, by the employers'
liability insurance association, social
security institutions, occupational safety
and health authorities or other
organizations.
If using the machine for the first time:
Ask the salesperson or another expert to
explain how to use it safely – or attend a
training course.
Minors should never be allowed to use
the machine – except for young trainees
over the age of 16 when working under
supervision.
Children, animals and bystanders must
remain at a distance.
