• Observe your surroundings and make sure that there is no risk of people or animals coming in contact with or affect your control of the product. • Never use the chainsaw above shoulder height. • Lack of concentration can lead to kickback if the kickback zone of the bar accidentally touches a branch, nearby tree or some other object. • Never use a chainsaw by holding it with one hand. A chainsaw is not safely controlled with one hand; you can cut yourself. Always have a secure, firm grip around the handles with both hands. • Always hold the chainsaw firmly with your right hand on the top handle and your left hand on the front handle. Wrap your fingers and thumbs around the handles. You should use this grip whether you are right handed or left handed. This grip minimizes the effect of kickback and lets you keep the chainsaw under control. Do not let go of the handles! • Do not use the product in a situation where you cannot call for help in case of an accident. • Sometimes chips get stuck in the clutch cover causing the saw chain to jam. Always stop the engine before cleaning. • If the saw chain jams in the cut: stop the engine! • Running an engine in a confined or badly ventilated area can result in death due to carbon monoxide poisoning. • The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot and may contain sparks which can start a fire. Do not start the product indoors or near flammable material. • Use the chain brake as a parking brake when you start the product and when you move short distances. Always carry the product in the front handle. This decreases the risk that you or a person near you get hit by the saw chain. • Overexposure to vibration can lead to circulatory damage or nerve damage in people who have impaired circulation. Contact your doctor if you experience symptoms of overexposure to vibration. Such symptoms include numbness, loss of feeling, tingling, pricking, pain, loss of strength, changes in skin colour or condition. These symptoms normally appear in the fingers, hands or wrists. These symptoms may be increased in cold temperatures. • It is not possible to cover every conceivable situation you can face when using a chainsaw. Always exercise care and use your common sense. Avoid all situations which you consider to be beyond your capability. If you still feel uncertain about operating procedures after reading these instructions, you should consult an expert before continuing. Do not hesitate to contact your dealer or Husqvarna if you have any questions about the use of the chainsaw. We will willingly be of service and provide you with advice as well as help you to use your chainsaw both efficiently and safely. Attend a training course in chainsaw usage if possible. Your dealer, forestry school or your library can provide information about which training materials and courses are available. 1792 - 005 - 02.11.2022 7
