produce general numbness. Continual or regular users
should therefore monitor closely the condition of their
hands or fingers. If any of the symptoms appear, seek
immediate medical advice.
3 Never carry the chainsaw with the engine running.
Whenever carrying a chainsaw, even for short distances,
the chain should be covered by the chain guard (scabbard)
and the bar should point backwards.
When transporting the chainsaw in a vehicle, secure the
saw to prevent fuel spillage.
4 To avoid kick-back, do not attempt to cut with the nose of
the bar. Ensure the engine is running at full throttle before
commencing to cut. To avoid kick-back, do not let the
nose of the bar come into contact with logs, branches, the
ground or any other obstruction. Do not allow any part of
the chain to come into contact with rock, nails or wire
fence
Ensure the chain is kept sharp and correctly tensioned.
Keep the spike or the saw body against the wood when
cutting. Use only genuine accessories and spare parts. We
recommend you have your unit periodically checked and
serviced by an authorised dealer.
Do not use chainsaw above shoulder height.
5 Do not operate the chainsaw near a naked flame or spilled
fuel. Only operate the chainsaw outside and in well ventila-
ted areas.
After re-fuelling, always wipe off any spilled fuel. Move the
chainsaw away from the fuelling point before starting the
engine.
6 Keep by-standers and animals out of the work area; at a
minimum distance of 10 m or twice the timber length. If
necessary, use warning signs to keep on-lookers at a
distance.
Carefully survey the working site to note any hazards, eg.
roads, paths, electricity cables, dangerous trees etc. Do not
use the chainsaw if the device for stopping the chain (safety
chainbrake) does not work correctly. Never place hands on
the chain whilst the engine is running. Ensure someone is
within hearing distance in case of an accident. If this is not
possible, it is recommended that users operating chain-
saws in remote areas carry an adequate first-aid kit with
them and ensure someone knows their location. Never
leave the engine running while the tool is unattended.
ONLY USE ORIGINAL SPARE PARTS AND ACCESSO-
RIES.

FUEL MIX
Use only fuel recommended by this manual. This product
is fitted with a 2-stroke engine and therefore requires a
2-stroke petrol and oil mix. Use leaded (4 Star) or unleaded
petrol with a minimum octane rating of 90.
UNLEADED PETROL: if using unleaded petrol, you must use
a totally synthetic 2-stroke engine oil or branded 2-stroke
engine oil (see table).
Only use oil from sealed containers. In order to obtain a good
fuel mix, put the oil into the container before the petrol.
IMPORTANT
Always shake this fuel mix vigorously each time you use it.
We recommend to carry out this operation each time you use
the fuel.
Fuel mix properties deteriorate with time, we therefore recom-
mend that you only make the quantity of fuel mix you will
need for each usage. Do not use fuel mix more than a week
old as this could damage the engine.
WARNING
Do not smoke when re-fuelling.
Always open the fuel cap slowly.
Re-fuel in open spaces only, keeping away from naked fla-
mes or sparks.
Always store fuel in an approved container.
SAFE STORAGE OF FUEL
Petrol is highly inflammable. Put out all cigarettes, pipes and
cigars before working with petrol. Avoid spilling petrol. Store
fuel in a cool, well ventilated place, in an approved container
specifically designed for the purpose.
