immediately if the supply cable is damaged.
1. Keep work area clean
Cluttered areas invite injuries. Do not start cutting
until you have a clear work area, secure footing,
and a planned retreat path from the falling tree.
2. Consider work area environment
Use extreme caution when cutting small sized
brush and sapling, as slender material may catch
the saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull
you off balance. Do not operate a chain saw in a
tree unless you are specifically trained to do so.
When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert
for spring back so that you will not be struck when
the tension in the wood fibers is released. Do not
expose the chain saw to rain. Do not use the chain
saw in damp or wet locations. Do not use the chain
saw in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.
3. Store idle chain saw
When not in use, tools should be stored in a dry,
high or locked up place, out of reach of children.
4. Do not force the chain saw
The chain saw will do a better and safer job when
used at the rate for which it was intended.
5. Use the right tool
Cut wood only. Do not use the chain saw for
purposes for which it was not intended. For
example, do not use the chain saw for cutting
plastic, masonry, or non-building materials.
6. Dress properly
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry, as they can
get caught in moving parts. Non-skid footwear
is recommended when working outdoors. Wear
protective hair covering to contain long hair.
7. Use safety gear
Use safety glasses, safety footwear, snug fitting
clothing, protective gloves, and protective hearing
and head gear.
8. Carrying the saw
Carry the saw by the front handle with the saw
stopped. Keep your finger off the switch, and
make sure that the guide bar and saw chain are to
the rear.
9. Do not abuse the cord
Never carry the tool by the cord or yank it to
disconnect it from the socket. Keep the cord away
from heat, oil and sharp edges.
10. Secure work
Use clamps or a vice to hold the work.
11. Do not overreach
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
12. Maintain the chain saw with care
Inspect the chain saw cords periodically and, if
damaged, have them repaired by an authorized
service facility. Keep the cord clear of the chain
and operator at all times. Never carry the saw by
the cord or pull it to disconnect from receptacle.
Keep the cord from oil and sharp edges. Inspect
the extension cords periodically and replace if
damaged. Keep tools sharp and clean for better
and safer performance. Follow instructions for
lubricating and changing accessories. Keep
handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
13. Disconnect the chain saw
Disconnect the chain saw when not in use, before
servicing, and when changing accessories and
attachments such as saw chain and guard.
14. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches
Form the habit of checking to see that keys and
adjusting wrenches are removed from the tool
before turning it on.
15. Avoid unintentional starting
Do not carry a plugged-in tool with a finger on the
switch. Ensure switch is off when plugging in.
16. Use outdoor extension leads
Use only extension cords that are intended for
outdoor use and which are so marked (≥ 1,5
mm2).
17. Stay alert
Watch what you are doing. Use common sense.
Do not operate the chain saw when you are tired.
Keep all parts of your body away from the saw
chain when the motor is operating. Before you
start the saw, make sure the saw chain is not
contacting anything.
18. Check damaged parts
Before further use of the tool, a guard or other
part that is damaged should be carefully checked
to determine that it will operate properly and
perform its intended function. Check for alignment
of moving parts, free running of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting and any other
conditions that may affect its operation. A
guard or other parts that is damaged should be
properly repaired or replaced by an authorized
service center unless otherwise indicated in
this instruction manual. Have effective switches
replaced by an authorized service facility. Do not
use the tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.

19. Warning!
The use of any accessory or attachment, other
than those recommended in this instruction
manual, may present a risk of personal injury.
20. Have your tool repaired by a qualified person
This electric tool is in accordance with the
relevant safety requirements. Repairs should
only be carried out by qualified persons using
original spare parts, otherwise this may result in
considerable danger to the user.
Warning! Kickback may occur when the nose
or tip of the guide bar touches an object, or
when the wood closes in and pinches the
saw chain in the cut. Tip contact in some
cases may cause a lightning-fast reverse
action, kicking the guide bar rapidly back
towards the operator. Pinching the saw chain
along the top of the guide bar may push the
guide bar rapidly back towards the operator.
Either of these reactions may cause you to
lose control of the saw, which could result in
serious injury to the user. The following
precautions should be followed to minimize
kickback.
21. Guard against Kickback
A. Grip saw firmly! Hold the chain saw firmly with
both hands when the motor is running. Keep a
good firm grip on the saw with both hands, the
right hand on the rear handle, and the left
hand on the front handle.
B. Do not over reach.
C. Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
D. Do not let the nose of the guide bar contact a
log, branch, ground or other obstruction.
E. Do not cut above shoulder height.
F. Use devices, such as low-kickback chain,
guide bar nose guards, chain brakes and
special guide bars, which reduce the risks
associated with kickback.
G. Use only replacement bars and chains
specified by the manufacturer or the
equivalent.
H. There are no other replacement components
for achieving kickback protection in
accordance with CSA Z62.3.
22. Power supply
Connect the chain saw to correct voltage; be
sure that the voltage supplied is the same as that
specified on the nameplate of the tool.
23. Do not operate a chain saw that is damaged,
improperly adjusted, or not completely and
securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain
stops moving when the trigger is released.
24. Do not attempt operations beyond your capacity or
experience.
25. Do not operate a chain saw with one hand!
Serious injury to the operator, helpers, or
bystanders may result from one-handed
operation. A chain saw is intended for two-handed
use.
26. To reduce potential for electric shock, do not
operate the saw on wet or slippery surfaces,
or during snow storms, rain storms, and other
adverse weather conditions.
27. Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil or
grease.
28. Do not allow dirt, debris or sawdust to build up on
the motor or outside air vents.
29. Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and
maintenance instructions for the saw chain, how to
sharpen the saw.
30. Cut at high motor speeds.
31. Operation of a chain saw should be restricted to
mature, properly instructed individuals.
32. Your chain saw is intended for occasional
homeowner use. It is not made for heavy
continuous use.
33. Do not force a small saw to do a job requiring a
heavier duty unit.
34. Examine the electrical switches. Do not use the
chain saw if the switches do not properly turn on
and off. Do not attempt to make any repairs to
the electric switches. Take your saw to a Ferax
Authorized Service Center.
35. Maintain extension cords. Inspect the extension
cords periodically and replace if damaged. Only
use power cords that are suitably marked for
outdoor use (wiring ≥ 1,5 mm2).
36. Do not operate your chain saw near or around
flammable liquids or gases, whether in or out of
doors. An explosion and/or fire may result.
37. All chain saw service, other than the items listed
in the user manual safety and maintenance
instructions should be performed by competent
chain saw personnel. Do not attempt to repair
it yourself; there are no user serviceable parts
inside.
38. Never remove, modify or make inoperative any
safety device furnished with your unit. The Chain
Brake®/Hand Guard is a major safety feature. The
saw will not run when the Chain Brake® is tripped.
39. It is intended for infrequent use by homeowner’s,
cottagers and campers, and for such general
applications such as clearing, pruning, cutting
firewood, etc. It is not intended for prolonged use.
If the intended use involves prolonged periods of
operation, this may cause circulatory problems
in the user’s hands due to vibration. It may be
appropriate to use a saw having an anti-vibration
feature.
40. Safety clothing required by your safety
organizations, government regulations, or your
employer should be used; otherwise, snug fitting
clothing, safety footwear, and hand and ear
protection should be worn.
41. When felling, keep at least 2 tree lengths between
yourself and your fellow workers.
42. Keep everyone, especially children and pets,
away from the area of operation. Never allow
children to operate the appliance. Turn off unit
immediately if you are approached.
43. Avoid sawing in the soil, in fences and in wiring.
The chain saw also is not developed to saw
young/thin trees and prepared balks.

Chain saw safety warnings:
Keep all parts of the body away from the saw• chain when the chain saw is operating. Before you
start the chain saw, make sure the saw chain is
not contacting anything.
A moment of inattention while operating chain• saws may cause entanglement of your clothing or
body with the saw chain.
Always hold the chain saw with your right hand on• the rear handle and your left hand on the front
handle. Holding the chain saw with a reversed
hand configuration increases the risk of personal
injury and should never be done.
Wear safety glasses and hearing protection.• Further protective equipment for head, hands, legs
and feet is recommended. Adequate protective
clothing will reduce personal injury by flying debris
or accidental contact with the saw chain.
Do not operate a chain saw in a tree. Operation of• a chain saw while up in a tree may result in
personal injury.
Always keep proper footing and operate the chain• saw only when standing on fixed, secure and level
surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces such as
ladders may cause a loss of balance or control of
the chain saw.
When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert• for spring back. When the tension in the wood
fibres is released the spring loaded limb may strike
the operator and/or throw the chain saw out of
control.
Use extreme caution when cutting brush and• saplings. The slender material may catch the saw
chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off
balance.
Carry the chain saw by the front handle with the• chain saw switched off and away from your body.
When transporting or storing the chain saw always
fit the guide bar cover. Proper handling of the
chain saw will reduce the likelihood of accidental
contact with the moving saw chain.
Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning• and changing accessories.
Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may• either break or increase the chance for kickback.
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and• grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing
loss of control.
Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for purposes• not intended. For example: do not use chain saw
for cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood building
materials. Use of the chain saw for operations
different than intended could result in a hazardous
situation.
Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and• maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to
increased kickback.
Position the cord so that it will not be caught on• branches and the like, during cutting
Recommended:
The appliance should be supplied via a Residual•
Current Device (RCD) with a tripping current of not
more than 30 mA.
The first time user should have practical instruction in
the use of the chainsaw and the protective equipment
from an experienced operator. The initial practice
should be cutting logs on a saw horse or cradle.
