The chainsaw can also be carried by attaching the ring (1) to
your waist belt or a rope.
Your saw comes standard with a chain scabbard that
matches the cutting attachment. If you use guide bars of
different lengths on the saw, the length of the chain
scabbard must be matched to the guide bar to reduce the
risk of injury. It should cover the full length of the guide bar.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of a short circuit, which could lead to
electric shock, fire and explosion, never transport the battery
