received the appropriate training. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for
damage caused by improper or incorrect use.
Please note that our equipment has not
been designed for use in commercial, trade
or industrial applications. Our warranty will

equivalent purposes.
WARNING!
- Keep this operating and maintenance
manual in a safe place for reference at a
later date.
- Read the instructions carefully. Be familiar
with the controls and the proper use of the
equipment.
- Never allow children or people unfamiliar
with these instructions to use the chainsaw.
Local regulations can restrict the age of the
operator.
- Never saw while people, especially children
or pets, are nearby. Keep in mind that the
user is responsible for accidents or hazards
occurring to other people or their property.
- This machine is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
6
physical, sensory or mental capabilities
or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning the use of the
machine by a person responsible for their
safety.
- Do not touch the chain.
PREPARATION
WARNING!
- DO NOT operate a chainsaw with one hand!
Serious injury to the operator, assistants,
bystanders or any combination of these
persons may result from one-handed
operation. A chainsaw is intended for two-
handed use only.
- DO NOT use the saw if you are tired, ill
or under the influence of alcohol and/or
drugs.
- Use safety footwear, snug-fitting clothing
and protective gloves, as well as eye,
hearing and head protection (PPE).
- Use caution when handling fuel. Move
the chainsaw at least 10 feet (3m) away
from the fuelling point before starting the
engine.
- DO NOT allow other people to be near when
starting or cutting with the chainsaw. Keep
bystanders and animals out of the work
area.
7
- DO NOT start cutting until you have a clear
work area, secure footing and a planned
retreat path from falling trees or branches.
- Keep all parts of your body away from the
saws chain when the engine is running.
- Before you start the engine, make sure that
the chain is not in contact with anything.
- Carry the chainsaw with the engine
stopped, the chain bar and saw chain facing
rearwards and with the exhaust away from
your body.
- NEVER use a chainsaw which is damaged,
incorrectly set, incomplete or loosely
assembled. Make sure that the chain
rotation stops when the chain brake is
applied.
- Shut off the engine before setting the
chainsaw down.
- Use extreme caution when cutting small
bushes and saplings, as slender material
may catch in the chainsaw and be whipped
towards you or pull you off balance.
- When cutting a limb that is under tension,
be alert for spring-back so that you will not
be struck when the tension in the wood
fibres is released.
- Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil or
fuel mixture.
- Operate the chainsaw only in well-ventilated
areas.
8
- DO NOT operate a chainsaw up in a tree
unless you have been specifically trained
to do so.
- All chainsaw servicing, other than the
items listed in the user manual safety
and maintenance instructions, should
be performed by competent chainsaw
service personnel.
- When transporting your chainsaw, use the
appropriate chain bar cover.
- DO NOT operate your chainsaw near
or around flammable liquids or gases,
whether in or out of doors. An explosion
and/or fire may result.
- DO NOT fill the fuel tank, oil reservoir or
lubricate whilst the engine of the chainsaw
is running.
- USE THE CORRECT TOOL: Cut wood
ONLY. Do not use the chainsaw for
purposes for which it was not intended.
For example, do not use the chainsaw
for cutting plastic, masonry or building
materials.
- The engine will create toxic exhaust fumes
as soon as the engine is started. Never
work in enclosed areas or in areas with
poor ventilation.
- NOTE: The chainsaw is designed for non-
commercial, occasional use for general
work, such as stump grubbing, cutting
9
firewood, etc. It is not designed for lengthy
use. If it is used for a lengthy period, the
vibrations it causes in the hands of the user
may result in circulation problems (white
finger syndrome).
- The chain is designed exclusively for sawing
wood. You may only fell trees if you have
received the appropriate training. The
manufacturer cannot be held liable for
damage caused by improper or incorrect
usage.
- Please note that our equipment has not
been designed for use in commercial, trade
or industrial applications. Our warranty
will be void if the machine is used in
commercial, trade or industrial businesses
or for the equivalent purposes.
KICKBACK
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of
the chain bar touches an object, or when the
wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in
the cut. If the bar tip contacts, it may cause
an extremely fast reverse reaction, kicking the
chain bar up and back towards the operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the
chain bar may push the chain 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
10
devices built into your saw. As a chainsaw
user, you should take several steps to keep
your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
- NOTE: With a basic understanding of
kickback, you can reduce or eliminate
the element of surprise. Sudden surprise
contributes to accidents.
- Keep a good firm grip on the saw with both
hands; the right hand on the rear handle,
and the left hand on the front handle, when
the engine is running. Use a firm grip with
thumbs and fingers encircling the chainsaw
handles. A firm grip will help you reduce
kickback and maintain control of the saw.
Never let go of the chainsaw.
- Make sure that the area in which you are
cutting is free from obstructions. Do not
let the nose of the chain bar contact a log,
branch or any other obstruction which could
be hit while you are operating the saw.
- Cut at high engine speeds.
- Do not overreach or cut above shoulder
height.
- Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and
maintenance instructions for the chainsaw.
- Only use replacement bars and chains
specified by the manufacturer or the exact
equivalent.
