back if the wood holding it is cut or removed.
On a fallen tree, a rooted stump has a high potential of 
springing back to the upright position during the bucking 
cut to separate the log from the stump. Watch out for 
springpoles—they are dangerous. Do not attempt to cut 
bent branches or stumps which are under tension unless 
you are professionally trained and competent to do so.

 WARNING

Springpoles are dangerous and could strike the operator, 
causing the operator to lose control of the chainsaw. 
This could result in severe or fatal injury to the operator. 
This should be done by trained users.

TRANSPORTATION AND STORAGE

See page 281 - 284.

■

Stop the product and disconnect it from the power 
supply. Allow the product to cool down before storing 
or transporting.

■

Clean all foreign material from the product. Store it in a 
cool, dry, and well-ventilated place that is inaccessible 
to children. Keep away from corrosive agents such 
as garden chemicals and de-icing salts. Do not store 
outdoors.

■

Fit the guide bar cover before storing the product or 
during transportation.

■

For transportation, secure the product against 
movement or falling to prevent injury to persons or 
damage to the product.

MAINTENANCE

Always keep the product in good working condition.

 WARNING

Use only original manufacturer’s replacement parts, 
accessories, and attachments. Failure to do so can 
cause possible injury, poor performance, and may void 
your warranty.

 WARNING

Servicing requires extreme care and knowledge 
and should be performed only by a quali

fi

 ed  service 

technician. Have the product serviced by an authorised 
service centre only. When servicing, use only original 
replacement parts.

 WARNING

Disconnect the product from the power supply before 
adjustment, maintenance, or cleaning. Failure to do so 
could result in serious personal injury.

■

You may only make adjustments or repairs described 
in this manual. For other repairs, have the product 
serviced by an authorised service centre only.

■

Consequences of improper maintenance, removal, or 

modification of safety features like the chain brake, 
hand guard (front and back), spiked bumper, chain 
catcher, guide bar, low-kickback saw chain  may 
cause the safety features to not function correctly, thus 
increasing the potential for serious injury. Keep the 
product professionally maintained and safe.

■

Sharpening the chain safely is a skilled task. Therefore, 
the manufacturer strongly recommends that a worn or 
dull chain is replaced with a new one, available at your 
authorised service centre. The part number is available 
in the product specification table in this manual.

■

Follow instructions for lubricating and chain tension 
checking and adjustment.

■

After each use, clean the product with a soft dry cloth.

■

Check all nuts, bolts, and screws at frequent intervals 
for security to ensure the product is in safe working 
condition. Any part that is damaged should be properly 
repaired or replaced by an authorised service centre.

RESIDUAL RISKS

Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still 
impossible to completely eliminate certain residual risk 
factors. The following hazards may arise during use, and 
the operator should pay special attention to avoid the 
following:

■

Injury caused by vibration

–

Always use the right tool for the job. Use designated 
handles. Restrict working time and exposure.

■

Exposure to noise can cause hearing injury.

–

Wear hearing protection and limit exposure.

■

Contact with exposed saw teeth of the chain (cutting 
hazards).

■

Unforeseen, abrupt movement or kickback of the guide 
bar (cutting hazards).

■

Parts ejected from the saw chain (cutting/injection 
hazards).

■

Thrown out pieces of the work piece (wood chips, 
splinters).

■

Inhalation of saw dust and particles.

■

Skin contact with oil.

RISK REDUCTION

It has been reported that vibrations from hand-held tools 
may contribute to a condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome 
in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling, 
numbness and blanching of the 

fi

 ngers, usually apparent 

upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to 
cold and dampness, diet, smoking and work practices 
are all thought to contribute to the development of these 
symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the 
operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:

■

Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating 
the unit wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists 
warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor 
contributing to Raynaud’s Syndrome.

■

After each period of operation, exercise to increase 
blood circulation.

■

Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of
