Warning: The vibration emission level will vary because of the ways in which a power tool can be used and may increase above the level given in this information sheet.

The vibration emission level may be used to compare one tool with another.

It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.

An accurate estimate of the vibratory load should also take into account the times when the tool is shut down or when it is running but not actually in use. This may significantly reduce the vibratory load over the total working period.

Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.

Safety instructions for chainsaws

  • Keep all parts of your body in safe distance from the saw when running. Before starting the saw, make sure the saw chain does not touch anything. A moment of inattention when working with the chainsaw is able to cause the saw chain to catch your clothes or parts of your body.
  • Use your right hand to hold the chainsaw by its rear handle and your left hand to hold it by its front handle. Holding the chainsaw the opposite way increases the risk of injury and you must not do that.
  • Wear protective glasses and ear protectors. Further, wearing head, hand and leg protection equipment is recommended. Suitable protective clothing minimises the risk of injury by thrown-away wood chips and possible contact with the saw chain.
  • Do not work on trees with the chainsaw. There is a risk of injury when working on a tree.
  • Provide safe posture at all times and use the chainsaw only when standing on a solid, safe and level surface. A slippery or unstable surface, such as ladder, may lead to loss of balance or loss of control over the chainsaw.
  • When cutting a tense branch, be sure to know that the branch will bounce back. If tension in the wood fi bres gets released, the tense branch may hit the operator and/or cause a loss of control over the chainsaw.
  • Be especially careful when cutting scrubs and saplings. Thin material may get caught in the chainsaw and hit you or you may lose your balance.
  • Carry the chainsaw by the front handle in a switched-off condition and the saw chain must be deflected from your body. Fit a protection cover on the chainsaw whenever it is transported or stored. Careful chainsaw treatment reduces the likelihood of an accidental contact with the running saw chain.
  • Follow the lubrication, chain tension and accessory equipment replacement instructions.

A chain that is not tightened or lubricated in a professional manner may crack or increase the risk of backlash.

  • Keep the handles dry, clean and with no oil and fat. Handles dirty with fat or oil are slippery and lead to loss of control.
  • Wood to be cut only. Do not use the chainsaw for works for which it has not been designed – example: do not use the chainsaw to cut plastic material, masonry or building materials not made of wood. Using the chainsaw for works that are in conflict with the designation may lead to dangerous situations.

Backlash causes and prevention:

Backlash may take place when the saw bar point touches an item or when the wood bends and the saw chain gets stuck in the cutting.

In many cases, a contact with the bar point may lead to a situation when the operator unexpectedly bends backward and the bar is ejected upward toward the operator as a result.

Sticking of the saw chain on the upper edge of the bar may throw the bar intensely off toward the operator.

Each such reaction may lead to losing control over the saw and you may get seriously injured. Do not fully rely on the safety equipment fitted in the chainsaw. As the chainsaw user, you should take various measures to be able to work without any accident and injury.

Backlash is a result of inappropriate or wrong use of the electric tools. It can be prevented by appropriate preventive measures described below:

  • Hold the saw firmly with both hands with thumbs and fingers embracing the chainsaw handles. Put your body and hands to such a position in which you are able to resist the backlash. If appropriate measures are taken, the operator may get the backlash under control. Never put the chainsaw out of your hands.
  • Avoid abnormal body posture and do not cut above the shoulder level. This will prevent a contact with the bar point and the chainsaw will be controlled better in unexpected situations.
  • Spare bars and saw chains specified by the manufacturer to be used at all times. Wrong spare bars and saw chains may lead to chain overloading and/or backlash.
  • Follow the saw chain sharpening and servicing instructions of the manufacturer. Too low depth limiters increase the risk of backlash.

Observe national regulations and instructions for chain saws operation.

Take care to prevent from fuel and oil leakage during transport.

The dust that arises when working with this tool can be detrimental to health and therefore not reach the body. Wear a suitable dust protection mask.
