Preparing the workplace
Before cutting with the power saw, properly prepare the workplace to minimise the risks associated with the chainsaw’s operation.
Make sure that only authorised persons are present at the workplace.
It is forbidden to start work during precipitation and in case of high air humidity, e.g., fog.
Wear protective clothing and personal protective equipment.
Before starting cutting, perform a trial wood cut in safe conditions, e.g., cutting wood placed on the saw-horse.
Avoid cutting wires, saplings, and wooden beams.
Do not stand on cut wood.
Installing the battery (V)
Warning! Before installing the battery in the tool, make sure that the power switch is in the o
ff
position, i.e. it is not pressed down.
Slide the battery into the battery socket guide until it latches in the socket. A correctly installed battery cannot be removed other-
wise than by pressing and holding the battery latch in this position, and then pulling the battery out of the tool socket.
Starting the power saw
Remove the guard from the guide bar and chain.
Grasp the handle with the right hand and place the left hand on the rubber part of the housing.
Make sure that the top guard is lowered.
Make sure that the guide bar and chain do not come into contact with any object or surface.
Press and hold the power switch lock button on the handle in this position (VI) with your thumb.
Press and hold the power switch in this position (VI). The lock button can be released.
Before cutting, wait until the motor reaches full speed and make sure that the chain runs smoothly along the guide bar. If you hear
any suspicious sounds or feeling vibrations, turn the power saw o
ff
immediately by releasing the power switch.
The power saw is turned o
ff
by releasing the power switch.
Unplug the power saw from the power supply and proceed with maintenance once the chain has stopped.
Working with the power saw
Persons who intend to work with a chainsaw for the
fi
rst time should seek advice on work and safety from a quali
fi
ed chainsaw op-
erator before starting work. The
fi
rst work with the power saw should consist of cutting the prepared logs placed on the saw-horse.
During work, observe the basic occupational safety principles. Consider also the possibility of kickback in the operator’s direction.
The power saw may kick back in the operator’s direction when the cutting chain encounters resistance.
To reduce this risk:
Pay attention to the placement of the guide bar top when cutting. It is forbidden to cut with the upper quarter of the guide bar top
(VII).
Cut only with the chain which moves along the bottom part of the guide bar.
Only apply the started power saw to the wood to be cut. Do not start the power saw after having applied it to the wood being
processed.
When working, do not lift the power saw to shoulder height or higher (VIII).
Do not stand in the cutting plane. This will reduce the risk of injury in case of kickback (IX).
During work, always hold the power saw with both hands.
Make sure that the chain is always sharp and appropriately tensioned.
TIPS FOR WORKING WITH THE CHAINSAW
Take a comfortable position and ensure full freedom of movement when cutting.
When cutting branches and boughs, do not cut them at the trunk, but at a distance of about 15 cm from the trunk. Make two cuts
to a depth of 1/3 of the branch diameter, approximately 8 cm apart – one cut from below, one from above. Then cut the branch just
at the trunk to a depth equal to 1/3 of the branch diameter. Finish the process by cutting the branch at the trunk from above. Do
not cut the branches by cutting from the bottom (X).
If the power saw gets stuck while cutting, never leave it in this position with the motor running. Turn o
ff
the power saw motor,
unplug the power saw from the power supply, and use wedges to extract the power saw from the trunk.
When cutting a tree that has already been fragmented into pieces, follow the rules indicated below. Place the wood on the saw-
horse or a stand so the cut piece can freely fall o
ff
to the ground without causing the power saw to jam. If the power saw is jammed,
proceed as described above. Do not touch the ground with the power saw or do not allow it to be contaminated with soil.
When working on a slope, stay above the cut wood.
Exercise particular caution when cutting a tensioned tree and entrust this activity to a quali
fi
ed lumberjack, if possible. When cut-
ting tensioned wood and supported on both ends, cut it from above to a depth of 1/3 of the diameter, and then
fi
nish the process
by cutting from the bottom.
If the wood is supported only at one end, cut the wood from the bottom to a depth equal to 1/3 of the diameter, and then
fi
nish the
process by cutting from the top (XI).
This will reduce the risk of the power saw jamming during cutting.
