W
ARNING! Under no circumstances may
the design of the machine be modified
without the permission of the

ARNING! A chainsaw is a dangerous
tool if used carelessly or incorrectly and
can cause serious, even fatal injuries. It
is very important that you read and
understand the contents of this
operator’s manual.

contain chemicals that may be
carcinogenic. Avoid contact with these
elements in the event of a damaged
muffler.
!
W
ARNING! Long term inhalation of the
engine’s exhaust fumes, chain oil mist

health risk.
!
W
ARNING! This machine produces an
electromagnetic field during operation.
This field may under some
circumstances interfere with active or
passive medical implants. To reduce the
risk of serious or fatal injury, we
recommend persons with medical
implants to consult their physician and
the medical implant manufacturer before
operating this machine.
!
W
ARNING! Never allow children to use or
be in the vicinity of the machine. As the
machine is equipped with a spring-
loaded stop switch and can be started by
low speed and force on the starter
handle, even small children under some
circumstances can produce the force
necessary to start the machine. This can
mean a risk of serious personal injury.
Therefore remove the spark plug cap
when the machine is not under close
supervision.
