Safety instructions for the cutting equipment WARNING: Read the warning instructions that follow before you use the product. • Only use approved guide bar/saw chain combinations and filing equipment. Refer to Technical data on page 35 for instructions. • Use protective gloves when you use or do maintenance on the saw chain. A saw chain that does not move can also cause injuries. • Keep the cutting teeth correctly sharpened. Obey the instructions and use the recommended file gauge. A saw chain that is damaged or incorrectly sharpened increases the risk of accidents. • Keep the correct depth gauge setting. Obey the instructions and use the recommended depth gauge setting. Too large depth gauge setting increases the risk of kickback. • Make sure that the saw chain has the correct tension. If the saw chain is not tight against the guide bar, the saw chain can derail. An incorrect saw chain tension increases wear on the guide bar, saw chain and chain drive sprocket. Refer to To adjust the tension of the saw chain on page 30. • Do maintenance on the cutting equipment regularly and keep it correctly lubricated. If the saw chain is not correctly lubricated, the risk of wear on the guide bar, saw chain and chain drive sprocket increases. 1065 - 007 - 27.09.2021 13

Safety instructions for the cutting equipment
WARNING:
Read the warning
instructions that follow before you use the
product.
Only use approved guide bar/saw chain
combinations and filing equipment. Refer to
Technical data on page 35
for instructions.
Use protective gloves when you use or do
maintenance on the saw chain. A saw chain that
does not move can also cause injuries.
Keep the cutting teeth correctly sharpened. Obey the
instructions and use the recommended file gauge. A
saw chain that is damaged or incorrectly sharpened
increases the risk of accidents.
Keep the correct depth gauge setting. Obey the
instructions and use the recommended depth gauge
setting. Too large depth gauge setting increases the
risk of kickback.
Make sure that the saw chain has the correct
tension. If the saw chain is not tight against the guide
bar, the saw chain can derail. An incorrect saw chain
tension increases wear on the guide bar, saw chain
and chain drive sprocket. Refer to
To adjust the
tension of the saw chain on page 30
.
Do maintenance on the cutting equipment regularly
and keep it correctly lubricated. If the saw chain is
not correctly lubricated, the risk of wear on the guide
bar, saw chain and chain drive sprocket increases.
