the moving saw chain.
j)
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.
k) 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.
l) 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.
m) Do not operate a pruning saw in a tree unless
you have been specifically trained to do so.
Operation of a pruning saw in a tree without
proper training could increase the risk of
serious personal injury.
n)
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.
o) Recommendation that the first-time user
should, as a minimum, practice cutting logs
on a saw-horse or cradle.
p) Recommendation to have sharpening and
maintenance of the saw chain performed by
authorised service centers.
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
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.
