9.7 CHAIN BRAKE - FIG.20
Before starting any cutting, manually check the chain
brake lever functions correctly moving backward and
forward. Make these checks with the saw pre-heated
and at tick over.
If the chain brake is not working correctly or fails to
operate at all, immediately switch off the engine.
Do not attempt to operate the chainsaw until this
has been resolved and the safety device is
operational again.
Have chain brake checked by an authorised service
agent regularly to ensure integrity of serviceable
parts. A worn brake mechanism is dangerous.
9.8 CUTTING
Once all the preliminary checks have been thoroughly carried out, to ascertain the correct
functionality of the chainsaw and its various components, preparation for cutting can commence.
See the general safety instruction section for details.
Immediately after any cutting operation release the throttle to return the chainsaw to idle.
Do not force the chain to cut. A sharp chain should be left to cut at its own pace.
9.9 FELLING - FIGS. 21 - 23
Refer to general safety instructions for preparation &
specific warnings.
Always seek information from the local authority
prior to cutting down any tree as regulations, laws
and protection orders may affect or prohibit the work
involved.
To fell a tree safely many factors need taking into
account and some preparation is also necessary.
A safe perimeter at least 2½ times the height of the
tree must be established warning of the activity
taking place and preventing bystanders from
entering.
The direction of a falling tree can be influenced but
not guaranteed. Roads, footpaths and services like overhead power/phone cables all present
problems which need addressing.
If unable to safely and satisfactorily resolve these issues, have a certified trained professional
carry out the tree felling.
The direction can be changed from that intended by factors such as wind, sloping terrain, tree
growth (leaning, heavy limb structure one side and decay) etc. Failure to observe these factors
or account for them can result in severe injury or fatality.
Plan an escape route and ensure all scrub, debris and undergrowth is cleared so an unimpeded
escape can quickly be made to safety if the felling direction unexpectedly changes.
