Right hand guard
The right hand guard is a protection for your hand on the
rear handle. The right hand guard gives you protection if
the saw chain breaks or derails. The right hand guard
also gives you protection from branches or twigs.

The vibration damping system decreases vibration in the
handles. Vibration damping units operate as a
separation between the product body and the handle
unit.

WARNING:
The start/stop switch
automatically goes back to start position. To
prevent accidental start, remove the spark
plug cap from the spark plug when you

Muffler
WARNING: The muffler becomes very hot
during/after operation and at idle speed.
There is a risk of fire, especially when you
operate the product near flammable
materials and/or fumes.
WARNING: Do not operate a product
without a muffler or with a defective muffler.
A defective muffler can increase the noise
level and the risk of fire. Keep fire
extinguishing tools near. Do not use a
product without, or with a broken, spark
arrestor mesh if you must have a spark
arrestor mesh in your area.
The muffler keeps the noise levels to a minimum and
points the exhaust fumes away from the operator. In
areas with a hot, dry weather there is a high risk of fire.
Obey local regulations and maintenance instructions.
Fuel safety
WARNING: Read the warning instructions
that follow before you use the product.
Make sure there is plenty of ventilation when
refuelling or mixing fuel (petrol and two-stroke oil).
Fuel and fuel vapour are highly flammable and can
cause serious injury when inhaled or allowed to
come in contact with the skin. For this reason
observe caution when handling fuel and make sure
there is adequate ventilation.
Take care when handling fuel and chain oil. Be
aware of the risks of fire, explosion and those
associated with inhalation.
Do not smoke and do not place any hot objects in
the vicinity of fuel.
