h) Carry the pruning saw by the front handle with
the pruning saw switched off and away from
your body. When transporting or storing the
pruning saw , always fit the guide bar cover.
Proper handling of the pruning saw will reduce
the likelihood of accidental contact with the
moving saw chain.
i) 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.
j) Cut wood only. Do not use pruning saw for
purposes not intended. For example: do not
use pruning saw for cutting metal, plastic,
masonry or non-wood building materials. Use
of the pruning saw for operations different than
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
k) This pruning saw is not intended for tree
felling. Use of the pruning saw for operations
different than intended could result in serious
injury to the operator or bystanders.
l) Follow all instructions when clearing jammed
material, storing or servicing the pruning saw.
Make sure the switch is off and the battery
pack is removed. Unexpected actuation of the
pruning saw while clearing jammed material or
servicing may result in serious personal injury.
m) Recommendation that the first-time user
should, as a minimum, practise cutting logs on
a saw-horse or cradle.
n) Recommendation to have sharpening and
maintenance of the saw chain performed by
authorised service centres.
2) 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 pruning
saw user, you should take several steps to keep
your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of pruning saw misuse and/
or incorrect operating procedures or conditions
and can be avoided by taking proper precautions
as given below:
a) Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers
encircling the pruning saw handles, and
position your body and arm to allow you to
resist kickback forces. Kickback forces can be
controlled by the operator, if proper precautions
Cordless Pruning Saw
are taken. Do not let go of the pruning saw.
b) Do not overreach and do not cut above
shoulder height. This helps prevent unintended
tip contact and enables better control of the
pruning saw in unexpected situations.
c) Only use replacement bars and chains
specified by the manufacturer. Incorrect
replacement guide bars and saw chains may
cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
d) Follow the manufacturer's sharpening and
maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to
increased kickback.
Residual risks
Even with the intended use of the appliance there
is always a residual risk, which can not prevented.
According to the type and construction of the
appliance the following potential hazards might
apply:
-
Contact with exposed saw teeth of the saw
chain (cutting hazards)
-
Access to the rotating saw chain (cutting
hazards)
-
Unforeseen, abrupt movement of the guide bar
(cutting hazards)
-
Flung out of parts from the saw chain (Cutting /
injection hazards)
-
Flung out of parts of the work piece
-
Skin contact with the oil
-
Loss of hearing, if no required ear protection
used during work
For pruning saw with the extended pole safety
