ned or lubricated chain may either break or increase the chance for kickback.
j） Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing
loss of control.
k） Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for purposes not intended. For example: do not use chain
saw for cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood building materials. Use of the chain saw for opera-
tions different than intended could result in a hazardous situation.
2.8 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 chain saw
user, you should take several steps to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of tool 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 chain saw handles, with both hands
on the saw and position your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces. Kickback forces
can be controlled by the operator, if proper precautions are taken. Do not let go of the chain saw.
b） Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder height. This helps prevent unintended tip con-
tact and enables better control of the chain saw in unexpected situations.
c） Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer. Incorrect replacement bars
and chains may cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
d） Follow the manufacturer's sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw chain. Decrea-
sing the depth gauge height can lead to increased kickback.
2.9 Safety Warnings for battery chargers
1. Keep the battery charger away from rain or moisture. Penetration of water in the battery charger
increases the risk of an electric shock.
2. Do not charge other batteries. The battery charger is suitable only for charging lithium ion batte-
ries within the listed voltage range. Otherwise there is danger of fire and explosion.
3. Keep the battery charger clean. Contamination can lead to danger of an electric shock.
4. Before each use, check the battery charger, cable and plug. If damage is detected, do not use
the battery charger. Never open the battery charger yourself. Have repairs per- formed only by a
qualified technician and only using original spare parts. Damaged battery chargers, cables and
plugs increase the risk of an electric shock.
5. Do not operate the battery charger on easily inflammable surfaces (e. g., paper, textiles, etc.) or
surroundings. The heating of the battery charger during the charging process can pose a fire
hazard.
6. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the battery charger.
