1) WORK AREA SAFETY
a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of ammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which
may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating
a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
2) ELECTRICAL SAFETY
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter
plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.
electric shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock
if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep
cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of
electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a
cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
3) PERSONAL SAFETY
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use
common sense when operating a power tool. Do not
use a power tool while you are tired or under the
inuence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment
of inattention while operating power tools may result in
serious personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear
eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personal injuries.
c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch
is in the o-position before connecting to power
source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying
the tool.
switch or energising power tools that have the switch on
invites accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to
a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance
at all times. This enables better control of the power tool
in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from
moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can

CHAIN SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
GENERAL CHAIN SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
a) Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain
when the chain saw is operating. Before you start
the chain saw, make sure the saw chain is not
contacting anything. A moment of inattention while
operating chain saws may cause entanglement of your
clothing or body with the saw chain.
b) Always hold the chain saw with your right hand
on the rear handle and your left hand on the front
handle. Holding the chain saw with a reversed hand
should never be done.
c) Hold the chain saw by insulated gripping surfaces
only, because the saw chain may contact hidden
wiring. Saw chains contacting a “live” wire may make
exposed metal parts of the chain saw “live” and could
give the operator an electric shock.
d) Wear eye protection. Further protective equipment
for hearing, head, hands, legs and feet is
recommended. Adequate protective equipment will
contact with the saw chain.
e) Do not operate a chain saw in a tree, on a ladder,
from a rooftop, or any unstable support. Operation
of a chain saw in this manner could result in serious
personal injury.
f) Always keep proper footing and operate the chain
saw only when standing on xed, secure and level
surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces such as ladders
may cause a loss of balance or control of the chain saw.
g) When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert
for spring back
released, the spring loaded limb may strike the operator
and/or throw the chain saw out of control.
h) Use extreme caution when cutting brush and
saplings. The slender material may catch the saw chain
i) Carry the chain saw by the front handle with the
chain saw switched o and away from your body.
be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust
extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are
connected and properly used. Use of dust collection
can reduce dust-related hazards.
h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of
tools allow you to become complacent and ignore
tool safety principles. A careless action can cause
severe injury within a fraction of a second.
4) POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power
tool for your application. The correct power tool will
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was
designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn
it on and o. Any power tool that cannot be controlled
with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from
the power tool before making any adjustments,
changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the
power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained
users.
e) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage
of parts and any other condition that may aect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power
tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by
poorly maintained power tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.,
in accordance with these instructions, taking into
account the working conditions and the work to be
performed
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
h) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean
and free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and
grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and
control of the tool in unexpected situations.
5) BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
a) Recharge only with the charger specied by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
another battery pack.
b) Use power tools only with specically designated
battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
c) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects like paper clips, coins, keys,
nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can
make a connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns
d) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact
accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid

When transporting or storing the chain saw, always
t the guide bar cover. Proper handling of the chain
saw will reduce the likelihood of accidental contact with
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 chain saw for purposes
not intended. For example: do not use chain saw
for cutting metal, plastic, masonry or non-wood
building materials. Use of the chain saw for operations
situation.
l) Do not attempt to fell a tree until you have an
understanding of the risks and how to avoid them.
Serious injury could occur to the operator or bystanders
while felling a tree.
m) Follow all instructions when clearing jammed
material, storing or servicing the chain saw. Make
sure the switch is o and the battery pack is
removed. Unexpected actuation of the chain saw while
clearing jammed material or servicing may result in
serious personal injury.
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 you’re your
cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of chain saw misuse and/or incorrect
operating procedures or conditions and can be avoided by
taking proper precautions as given below:
a) Maintain a rm grip, with thumbs and ngers
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 contact and
enables better control of the chain saw in unexpected
situations.
c) Only use replacement guide bars and saw chains
specied 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.

! secure work area; ensure no persons or animals
are in the vicinity of the falling tree
! never attempt to free a jammed saw with the motor
running; use wooden wedges to free chain and
chain bar
! always wear hard hat to protect head against
falling branches
-when cutting and felling operations are being
performed by two or more persons at the same time,
the felling operations should be separated from the
cutting operation by a distance of at least twice the
height of the tree being felled
-trees should not be felled in a manner that would
endanger any person, strike any utility line or cause
any property damage (if the tree does make contact
immediately)
-the chain saw operator should keep on the uphill side
of the terrain as the tree is likely to roll or slide downhill
after it is felled
-an escape path should be planned and cleared as
necessary before cuts are started (the escape path
should extend back and diagonally to the rear of the
expected line of fall) pa
-before felling is started, consider the natural lean of
the tree, the location of larger branches and the wind
direction to judge which way the tree will fall
-remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, staples and wire
from the tree
-make the notch (1 – 2) 1/3 the diameter of the tree,
perpendicular to the direction of falls as illustrated pb
-
help to avoid pinching either the saw chain or the guide
bar when the second notch is being made)
-make the felling back cut at least 50 mm higher than
the horizontal notching cut (keep the felling back cut
parallel to the horizontal notching cut) pb
-make the felling back cut so enough wood is left to act
as a hinge (the hinge wood keeps the tree from twisting
and falling in the wrong direction; do not cut through
the hinge)
-as the felling gets close to the hinge the tree should
begin to fall
-if there is any chance that the tree may not fall in
desired direction or it may rock back and bind the
saw chain, stop cutting before the felling back cut
is complete and use wedges of wood, plastic or
aluminium to open the cut and drop the tree along the
desired line of fall pc
-when the tree begins to fall, remove the chain saw from
the cut, stop the motor, put the chain saw down, then
use the retreat path planned (be alert for overhead
limbs falling and watch your footing)
• Limbing a tree a
-Limbing is removing the branches from a fallen tree
-when limbing leave larger lower limbs to support the log
-remove the small limbs in one cut as illustrated
until the gripping teeth release, and reposition at a
lower level to continue sawing; do not remove the saw
completely from the wood
-do not force the chain while cutting; let the chain do the
work, using gripping teeth X to apply minimum leverage
pressure
-use the chain saw only with secure footing
-hold the chain saw at the right-hand side of your body
ib
-never use the chain saw above shoulder height ic
-do not operate the chain saw with arms fully extended
on a ladder id
-sawing is optimized when the chain speed remains
steady during cutting
! beware when reaching the end of the cut; the
weight of the saw may change unexpectedly as it
cuts free from the wood (accidents may occur to
legs and feet)
! always remove the saw from a wood cut while the
saw is running
• Cutting logs
-support logs so that the face sides at the cut do not
close in against each other, which would result in the
chain being jammed or pinched
-position and set short logs safely prior to sawing
-when sawing, always take care to avoid hitting stones,
nails, etc., as these could be thrown up or cause
damage to the chain or serious injury to the operator or
bystanders
! keep a running chain clear of wire fencing or the
ground
-length cuts must be carried out with care, as leverage

angle to avoid kickback
-there is a high risk of accidents when sawing wood,
branch or trees under tension; be extremely careful
(leave saw jobs like these to professional)
• Bucking a log (cutting a log into lengths)
-when possible, the log should be raised and supported
by the use of limbs, logs or chocks
-
weight is evenly distributed on both feet
-when the log is supported along its entire length as
illustrated, it is cut from the top (overbuck) oa
-when the log is supported on one end as illustrated,
cut 1/3 the diameter from the underside (underbuck);
