1. For safe operation
1. Never operate a saw when you
are fatigued, ill, or upset, or
under the influence of
medication that may make you
drowsy, or if you are under the
influence of alcohol or drugs.
2. Use safety footwear, snug fitting
clothing and eye, hearing and
head protection devices.
3. Always use caution when hand-
ling fuel. Wipe up all spills and
then move the chain saw at least
3m from the fueling point before
starting the engine.
3a. Eliminate all sources of
sparks or flame (i.e.
smoking, open flames, or
work that can cause
sparks)in the areas where
fuel is mixed, poured, or
stored.
3b. Do not smoke while
handling fuel or while
operating the chain saw.
4. Do not allow other persons to be
near the chain saw when
starting or cutting. Keep
bystanders sho-uld be a
minimum of 10m away when you
start of operate the chain saw.
5. Never start cutting until you have
a clear work area, secure footing,
and a planned retreat path from
the falling tree.
6. Always hold the chain saw firmly
with both hands when the
engine is running. Use a firm
grip with thumb and fingers
encircling the chain saw
handles.
7. Keep all parts of your body away
from the saw chain when the
engine is running.
8. Before you start the engine,
make sure the saw chain is not
contacting anything.
9. Always carry the chain saw with
the engine stopped, the guide
bar and saw chain to the rear,
and the muffler away from your
body.
10. Always inspect the chain saw be-
fore each use for worn, loose, of
damaged parts. Never operate a
chain saw that is damaged, im-
properly adjusted, or is not com-
pletely and securely assembled.
Be sure that the saw chain stops
moving when the throttle control
trigger is released.
11. All chain saw service, other than
the items listed in the Owner’s
Manual, should be performed by
competent chain saw service
personnel.(E.g., if improper tools
are used to remove the flywheel,
or if an improper tool is used to
hold the flywheel in order to re-
move the clutch, structural dam-
age to the flywheel in order to re-
move the clutch, structural dam-
age to the flywheel could occur
which could subsequently cause
the flywheel to disintegrate.)
12. Always shut off the engine be-
fore setting it down.
13. Use extreme caution when cut-
ting small size brush and sap-
lings because slender material
may catch the saw chain and be
whipped toward you or pull you
off balance.
14. When cutting a limb that is un-
der tension,be alert for spring

which could subsequently cause
the flywheel to disintegrate.)

1. For safe operation
1. Never operate a saw when you
are fatigued, ill, or upset, or
under the influence of
medication that may make you
drowsy, or if you are under the
influence of alcohol or drugs.
2. Use safety footwear, snug fitting
clothing and eye, hearing and
head protection devices.
3. Always use caution when hand-
ling fuel. Wipe up all spills and
then move the chain saw at least
3m from the fueling point before
starting the engine.
3a. Eliminate all sources of
sparks or flame (i.e.
smoking, open flames, or
work that can cause
sparks)in the areas where
fuel is mixed, poured, or
stored.
3b. Do not smoke while
handling fuel or while
operating the chain saw.
4. Do not allow other persons to be
near the chain saw when
starting or cutting. Keep
bystanders sho-uld be a
minimum of 10m away when you
start of operate the chain saw.
5. Never start cutting until you have
a clear work area, secure footing,
and a planned retreat path from
the falling tree.
6. Always hold the chain saw firmly
with both hands when the
engine is running. Use a firm
grip with thumb and fingers
encircling the chain saw
handles.
7. Keep all parts of your body away
from the saw chain when the
engine is running.
8. Before you start the engine,
make sure the saw chain is not
contacting anything.
9. Always carry the chain saw with
the engine stopped, the guide
bar and saw chain to the rear,
and the muffler away from your
body.
10. Always inspect the chain saw be-
fore each use for worn, loose, of
damaged parts. Never operate a
chain saw that is damaged, im-
properly adjusted, or is not com-
pletely and securely assembled.
Be sure that the saw chain stops
moving when the throttle control
trigger is released.
11. All chain saw service, other than
the items listed in the Owner’s
Manual, should be performed by
competent chain saw service
personnel.(E.g., if improper tools
are used to remove the flywheel,
or if an improper tool is used to
hold the flywheel in order to re-
move the clutch, structural dam-
age to the flywheel in order to re-
move the clutch, structural dam-
age to the flywheel could occur
which could subsequently cause
the flywheel to disintegrate.)

Gebruik nooit een zaag als
u vermoeid, ziek of overstuur
bent, of onder invloed van
medicijnen die u slaperig
kunnen maken, of als u onder
invloed bent van alcohol of
drugs.
Gebruik veiligheidsschoenen,
nauwsluitende kleding en
oog-, gehoor- en hoofd-
beschermingsmiddelen.
Wees altijd voorzichtig bij
het hanteren van brandstof.
Veeg alle gemorste vloeistof-
fen weg en verplaats de ket-
tingzaag vervolgens minstens
3 m van het tankpunt voordat
u de motor start.
3a.
3b.
Sta niet toe dat andere per-
sonen in de buurt van de
kettingzaag komen bij het
starten of zagen. Houd om-
standers minimaal 10 meter
uit de buurt wanneer u de
kettingzaag begint te gebrui-
ken.
Houd de kettingzaag altijd
stevig met beide handen vast
als de motor draait. Gebruik
een stevige greep met duim
en vingers rond de ketting-
zaaghandgrepen.
Zorg ervoor dat het gebied
waarin u zaagt vrij is van ob-
stakels. Zorg ervoor dat u een
vluchtweg heb wanneer er
een boom valt.

Verwijder alle bronnen
van vonken of vlammen
(d.w.z. roken, open vuur
of werk dat vonken kan
veroorzaken) in de gebie-
den waar brandstof wordt
gemengd, gegoten of op-
geslagen.
Rook niet terwijl u met
brandstof werkt of terwijl
u de kettingzaag bedient.
Houd alle lichaamsdelen uit de
buurt van de kettingzaag wan-
neer de motor draait.
Controleer voordat u de motor
start of de kettingzaag niets raakt.
Draag de kettingzaag altijd met
de motor stil, het zaagblad en
de zaagketting naar achteren en
de geluiddemper weg van uw li-
chaam.
Inspecteer de kettingzaag vóór elk
gebruik op versleten, losse of be-
schadigde onderdelen. Gebruik
nooit een kettingzaag die bescha-
digd is, niet goed is afgesteld of
niet volledig en veilig is gemon-
teerd. Zorg ervoor dat de zaagket-
ting stopt met bewegen wanneer
de gashendel wordt losgelaten.
Zet de motor altijd uit voordat u
deze neerzet.
Let bij het zagen van een lede-
maat met een lagere spanning op
voor terugveren zodat u niet wordt
geraakt wanneer de spanning in
de houtvezels wordt opgeheven.
Wees uiterst voorzichtig bij het za-
gen van kleine borstels en sappen,
omdat slank materiaal de zaag-
ketting kan vangen en naar u toe
kan worden geslagen of uit balans
kan worden gebracht.
Alle kettingzaagservice, met uit-
zondering van de items in de
gebruikershandleiding, moet wor-
den uitgevoerd door bevoegd
personeel van de kettingzaag-
service (bijvoorbeeld als onjuist
gereedschap wordt gebruikt om
het vliegwiel te verwijderen, of als
een onjuist gereedschap wordt
gebruikt om de vliegwiel om de
koppeling te verplaatsen, structu-
rele schade aan het vliegwiel om
de koppeling te verplaatsen, kan
structurele schade aan het vlieg-
wiel optreden die vervolgens kan
leiden tot het desintegreren van
het vliegwiel.)
