SAFETY RULES
Basic Safety Precautions
• Read this manual carefully until you completely understand
and can follow all safety rules, precautions, and operating
instructions before attempting to use the unit.
• Restrict the use of your saw to adult users who understand and
can follow safety rules, precautions, and operating instructions
found in this manual. Minors should never be allowed to use a
chainsaw.
• Do not handle or operate a chainsaw when you are fatigued,
1
ill, or upset, or if you have taken alcohol, drugs, or medication.
You must be in good physical condition and mentally alert.
Chainsaw work is strenuous. If you have any condition that
might be aggravated by strenuous work, check with your
doctor before operating a chainsaw (Fig. 1). Be more cautious
before rest periods and towards the end of your shift.
• Keep children, bystanders, and animals a minimum of 35
feet (10 meters) away from the work area. Do not allow other
people or animals to be near the chainsaw when starting or
operating the chainsaw (Fig. 2).
• Major cases of chainsaw accidents happen when the chain
hits the operator. While working with the chainsaw, always
2
use safety protective approved clothing. The use of protective
clothing does not eliminate injury risks, but reduces the injury
effects in case of accident. Consult your trusted supplier to
choose equipment in compliance with legislation. The clothing
must be proper and not an obstacle. Wear adherent anti-cut
clothing. Anti-cut jackets (Fig.3), dungarees (Fig.3) and
leggings are ideal. Do not wear clothes, scarves, ties or
bracelets that may get stuck in wood or twigs. Tie up
and protect long hair (example with foulards, cap, helmets,
etc.). Safety shoes or boots having skid-proof sole and
anti-piercing insert (Fig.4). Wear protective helmet (Fig.5) in
places where there can be falling objects. Wear protective
goggles or face screens! Use protections against noises:
3
for example noise reduction ear guards (Fig.5) or earplugs.
The use of protections for the ear requests much more
attention and caution, because the perception of danger audio
signals (screaming, alarms, etc.) is limited. Wear anti-cut
gloves (Fig.6, page 8).
• Only loan your saw to expert users who are completely familiar
with saw operation and correct use. Give other users the
manual with operating instructions, which they have to read
before using the saw.
• Check the chainsaw each day to ensure that each device,
whether for safety or otherwise, is functional.
• Never use a damaged, modified, or improperly repaired or
4
assembled chainsaw. Do not remove, damage or deactivate
any of the safety devices. Only use bars of the length indicated
in the table (page 13). Always replace bar, chain, hand guard,
or chain brake immediately if it becomes damaged, broken or
is otherwise removed.
• Carefully plan your sawing operation in advance. Do not start
cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing, and, if
you are felling trees, a planned retreat path.
• All saw service, other than the operations shown in the present
manual, have to be performed by competent personnel.
• The chainsaw must only be used for cutting wood. It is
unadvisable to cut other types of material.
• It is unadvisable to hitch tools or applications to the P.t.o. that

are not specified by the manufacturer.
