9If the saw chain becomes clogged or jammed whilst cutting, switch o󰀨 and remove the battery prior to taking any remedial work.
9Before attempting any cutting determine an escape area. Remove all obstructions such as tools and cuttings.
9Prior to cutting branches or limbs determine the possible falling direction. Take into account the condition of the branches and limbs
of adjoining trees and wind direction etc.
9Be aware of any rebound of the branch when it hits the ground.
8DO NOT hold the cordless chainsaw at an angle of more than 60º. Falling objects could strike the operator causing possible serious
personal injury.
8DO NOT stand underneath the branch or limb being cut.
9Keep the cordless chainsaw running through all of the cut. Stopping the saw chain mid-cut may cause entrapment of the chainsaw.
9If the saw chain becomes entrapped, immediately stop the cordless chainsaw and remove the battery. Carefully move the branch to
allow the saw chain to be removed.
9Avoid kickback (rotational force towards the operator). To prevent kickback never use the guide bar nose as a penetrating cut.
Always be aware of the position of the guide bar nose when cutting.
8DO NOT cover the vents of the cordless chainsaw.
WARNING! Be aware that the cordless chainsaw will not stop instantly when switched o󰀨, but will continue to move a short distance
before stopping.
WARNING! The warnings, cautions and instructions in this manual cannot cover all possible conditions and situations that may
occur. It must be understood by the operator that common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but
must be applied by the operator.
WARNING! Keep all parts of the body away from the blade. Do not remove cut material or hold material to be cut when blades
are moving. Blades continue to move after the switch is turned o󰀨. A moment of inattention while operating the hedge trimmer may
result in serious personal injury.
9Carry the hedge trimmer by the handle with the blade stopped and taking care not to operate any power switch. Proper carrying of
the hedge trimmer will decrease the risk of inadvertent starting and resultant personal injury from the blades.
9When transporting or storing the hedge trimmer, always t the blade cover. Proper handling of the hedge trimmer will decrease the
risk of personal injury from the blades.

7.2. SHARPENING THE SAW CHAIN
7.2.1. The saw chain will require sharpening when:
a) Mostly sawdust is produced when damp wood is cut.
b) The saw chain has difficulty penetrating the wood, even when extra cutting pressure is applied.
c) The cutting edge is visibly damaged.
d) The chainsaw pulls to the left or right when trying to cut through the wood. This is caused by uneven sharpening of the saw chain

ow onto the saw chain.
7.4.2. Clean out these chips and sawdust every time the saw chain is removed, replaced or sharpened, with a slotted screwdriver or sti󰀨
brush (g 21).
7.5. CLEANING THE SPROCKET COVER
