General Power Tool Safety

Warnings

WARNING Read all safety warnings and all

instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or

serious injury.

Save all warnings and

instructions for future reference.

The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your

mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated

(cordless) power tool.

Work area safety

1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or

dark areas invite accidents.

2. Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence of

flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools

create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

3. Keep children and bystanders away while

operating a power tool. Distractions can cause

you to lose control.

Electrical Safety

4. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never

modify the plug in any way. Do not use any

adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power

tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will

reduce risk of electric shock.

5. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded

surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and

refrigerators. There is an increased risk of

electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

6. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet

conditions. Water entering a power tool will

increase the risk of electric shock.

7. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for

carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.

Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or

moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords

increase the risk of electric shock.

8. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an

extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use

of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk

of electric shock.

9. If operating a power tool in a damp location is

unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit

interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of an

GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

Personal Safety

10. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use

common sense when operating a power tool.

Do not use a power tool while you are tired or

under the influence of drugs, alcohol or

medication. A moment of inattention while

operating power tools may result in serious

personal injury.

11. Use personal protective equipment. Always

wear eye protection. Protective equipment such

as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or

hearing protection used for appropriate conditions

will reduce personal injuries.

12. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the

switch is in the off-position before connecting

3

to power source and/or battery pack, picking

up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools

with your finger on the switch or energising power

tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

13. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before

turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key

left attached to a rotating part of the power tool

may result in personal injury.

14. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and

balance at all times. This enables better control

of the power tool in unexpected situations.

15. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves

away from moving parts. Loose clothes,

jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving

parts.

16. If devices are provided for the connection of

dust extraction and collection facilities,

ensure these are connected and properly

used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-

related hazards.

Power tool use and care

17. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct

power tool for your application. The correct

power tool will do the job better and safer at the

rate for which it was designed.

18. Do not use the power tool if the switch does

not turn it on and off. Any power tool that

cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous

and must be repaired.

19. Disconnect the plug from the power source

and/or the battery pack from the power tool

before making any adjustments, changing

accessories, or storing power tools. Such

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of

starting the power tool accidentally.

20. Store idle power tools out of the reach of

children and do not allow persons unfamiliar

with the power tool or these instructions to

operate the power tool. Power tools are

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

21. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment

or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts

and any other condition that may affect the

power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the

power tool repaired before use. Many

accidents are caused by poorly maintained power

tools.

22. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges

are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

23. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits

etc. in accordance with these instructions,

taking into account the working conditions

and the work to be performed. Use of the

power tool for operations different from those

intended could result in a hazardous situation.

Battery tool use and care

24. Recharge only with the charger specified by

the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for

one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire

when used with another battery pack.

25. Use power tools only with specifically

designated battery packs. Use of any other

battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

26. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away

from other metal objects, like paper clips,

coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal

objects, that can make a connection from one

terminal to another. Shorting the battery

terminals together may cause burns or a fire.

27. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be

ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If

contact accidentally occurs, flush with water.

If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek

medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery

may cause irritation or burns.

Service

28. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified

repair person using only identical

replacement parts. This will ensure that the

safety of the power tool is maintained.

29. Follow instruction for lubricating and

changing accessories.

30.

Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and

grease.

GEB071-7

Cordless Chain saw safety

warnings:

1. 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.

2. 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.

3. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping

surfaces only, because the saw chain may

contact hidden wiring. Saw chains contacting a

"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the

power tool "live" and could give the operator an

electric shock.

4

4.

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.

5. Do not operate a chain saw in a tree. Operation

of a chain saw while up in a tree may result in

personal injury.

6. 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.

7. 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.

8. 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.

9.

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.

10. Follow instructions for lubricating, chain

tensioning and changing accessories.

Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may

either break or increase the chance for kickback.

11. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and

grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing

loss of control.

12. 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.

13. Causes and Operator Prevention of Kickback:

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 sudden

reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and

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

personal injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the

safety devices built into your saw. As a chain saw

user, you should take several steps to keep your

cutting jobs free from accident or injury.

Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or

incorrect operating procedures or conditions and

can be avoided by taking proper precautions as

given below:

− Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and

fingers encircling the chain saw handles,

with both hands on the saw and position

your body and arm to allow you to resist

kickback forces. Kickback forces can be

controlled by the operator, if proper

precautions are taken. Do not let go of the

chain saw.

014673

− Do not overreach and do not cut above

shoulder height. This helps prevent

unintended tip contact and enables better

control of the chain saw in unexpected

situations.

− Only use replacement bars and chains

specified by the manufacturer. Incorrect

replacement bars and chains may cause

chain breakage and/or kickback.

− Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening

and maintenance instructions for the saw

chain. Decreasing the depth gauge height

can lead to increased kickback.

14. Before starting work, check that the chain saw is

in proper working order and that its condition

complies with the safety regulations. Check in

particular that:

• The chain brake is working properly;

• The run-down brake is working properly;

• The bar and the sprocket cover are fitted

correctly;

• The chain has been sharpened and tensioned

in accordance with the regulations;

15. Do not start the chain saw with the chain

cover being installed on it. Starting the chain

saw with the chain cover being installed on it may

cause the chain cover to thrown out forward

resulting in personal injury and damage to objects

around the operator.

014655

Saw chain is automatically lubricated when the tool is in

operation.

Check the amount of remaining oil in the oil tank

through the oil inspection window.

To refill the tank, remove the cap from the oil tank

opening.

After refilling the tank, always screw the provided oil

tank cap on the chain saw.

CAUTION:

• When filling the chain saw with chain oil for the

first time, or refilling the tank after it has been

completely emptied, add oil up to the bottom edge

of the filler neck. The oil delivery may otherwise be

impaired.

• As a saw chain oil, use oil exclusively for Makita

chain saws or oil available in market.

• Never use oil including dust and particles or

volatile oil.

• When pruning trees, use botanical oil. Mineral oil

may harm trees.

• Never force the chain saw when pruning trees.

• Before cutting out, make sure that the provided oil

tank cap is screwed in place.

014669

Hold the chain saw away from the tree. Start it and wait

until lubrication on saw chain is adequate.

Bring the spike bumper into contact with the branch to

be cut before switching on. Otherwise it may cause the

guide bar to wobble, resulting in injury to operator.

Saw the wood to be cut by just moving it down.

WORKING WITH THE CHAIN SAW

CAUTION:

• The first time user should, as a minimum practice,

do cutting logs on a saw-horse or cradle.

• When sawing precut timber use a safe support

(saw horse or cradle). Do not steady the

workpiece with your foot, and do not allow anyone

else to hold or steady it.

• Secure round pieces against rotation.

008576

When cutting thick branches, first make a shallow

undercut and then make the finish cut from the top.

001742

If you try to cut off thick branches from the bottom, the

branch may close in and pinch the saw chain in the cut.

If you try to cut off thick branches from the top without a

shallow undercut, the branch may splinter.

014714

If you cannot cut the timber right through with a single

stroke:

Apply light pressure to the handle and continue sawing

and draw the chain saw back a little; then apply the

spike a little lower and finish the cut by raising the

handle.

Bucking

014667

For bucking cuts, rest the spike bumper shown in the

figure on the wood to be cut.

With the saw chain running, saw into the wood, using

the top handle to raise the saw and the front one to

guide it. Use the spike bumper as a pivot.

Continue the cut by applying slight pressure to the front

handle, easing the saw back slightly. Move the spike

bumper further down the timber and raise the front

handle again.

When making several cuts, switch the chain saw off

between cuts.

006914

CAUTION:

• If the upper edge of the bar is used for cutting, the

chain saw may be deflected in your direction if the

chain becomes trapped. For this reason, cut with

the lower edge, so that the saw will be deflected

away from your body.

006915

Cut wood under tension on the pressure side (A) first.

Then make the final cut on the tension side (B). This

prevents the bar from becoming trapped.

Limbing

CAUTION:

• Limbing may only be performed by trained

persons. A hazard is presented by the risk of kick-

back.

When limbing, support the chain saw on the trunk if

possible. Do not cut with the tip of the bar, as this

presents a risk of kickback.

Pay particular attention to branches under tension. Do

not cut unsupported branches from below.

Do not stand on the felled trunk when limbing.

Burrowing and parallel-to-grain cuts

CAUTION:

• Burrowing and parallel-to-grain cuts may only be

carried out by persons with special training. The

possibility of kickback presents a risk of injury.

014713

Perform parallel-to-grain cuts at as shallow an angle as

possible. Carry out the cut as carefully as possible, as

the spike bumper cannot be used.

Felling

CAUTION:

• Felling work may only be performed by trained

persons. The work is hazardous.

Observe local regulations if you wish to fell a tree.

006917

− Before starting felling work, ensure that:

(1) Only persons involved in the felling operation

are in the vicinity;

(2) Any person involved has an unhindered path

of retreat through a range of approximately

45 ° either side of the felling axis. Consider

the additional risk of tripping over electrical

cables;

(3) The base of the trunk is free of foreign

objects, roots and ranches;

(4) No persons or objects are present over a

distance of 2 1/2 tree lengths in the direction

in which the tree will fall.

− Consider the following with respect to each tree:

• Direction of lean;

• Loose or dry branches;

• Height of the tree;

• Natural overhang;

• Whether or not the tree is rotten.

− Consider the wind speed and direction. Do not

carry out felling work if the wind is gusting strongly.

− Trimming of root swellings: Begin with the largest

swellings. Make the vertical cut first, then the

horizontal cut.

006918

− Cut a scarf: The scarf determines the direction in

which the tree will fall, and guides it. It is made on

the side towards which the tree is to fall. Cut the

scarf as close to the ground as possible. First

make the horizontal cut to a depth of 1/5 -1/3 of

the trunk diameter. Do not make the scarf too

large. Then make the diagonal cut.

− Cut any corrections to the scarf across its entire

width.

1. Felling area

− Make the back cut a little higher than the base cut

of the scarf. The back cut must be exactly

horizontal. Leave approximately 1/10 of the trunk

diameter between the back cut and the scarf.

The wood fibers in the uncut trunk portion act as a

hinge. Do not cut right through the fibers under

any circumstances, as the tree will otherwise fall

unchecked. Insert wedges into the back cut in time.

− Only plastic or aluminum wedges may be used to

keep the back cut open. The use of iron wedges is

prohibited.

− Stand to the side of the falling tree. Keep an area

clear to the rear of the falling tree up to an angle of

45 ° either side of the tree axis (refer to the "

felling area " figure). Pay attention to falling

branches.

− An escape path should be planned and cleared as

necessary before cuts are started. The escape

path should extend back and diagonally to the rear

of the expected line of fall as illustrated in figure.

Always remove the battery cartridge from the tool and

overlap the guide bar with the guide bar cover before

carrying the tool. Also cover the battery cartridge with

the battery cover.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the

battery cartridge is removed before attempting to

perform inspection or maintenance.

• Always wear gloves when performing any

inspection or maintenance.

• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or

the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may

result.

Sharpening the saw chain

CAUTION:

• Always remove the battery cartridge and wear

safety gloves when performing work on the saw

chain.

008633

Sharpen the saw chain when:

− Mealy sawdust is produced when damp wood is

cut;

− The chain penetrates the wood with difficulty, even

when heavy pressure is applied;

− The cutting edge is obviously damaged;

− The saw pulls to the left or right in the wood. The

reason for this behaviour is uneven sharpening of

the saw chain, or damage to one side only.

Sharpen the saw chain frequently, but remove only

a little material each time.

Two or three strokes with a file are usually sufficient for

routine resharpening. When the saw chain has been

resharpened several times, have it sharpened in a

MAKITA specialist repair shop.

Sharpening criteria:

− All cutter length must be equal. Cutters of differing

length prevent the chain from running smoothly,

and may cause the chain to break.

− Do not sharpen the chain once a minimum cutter

length of 3 mm has been reached. A new chain

must then be fitted.

− The chip thickness is determined by the distance

between the depth gauge (round nose) and the

cutting edge.

− The best cutting results are obtained with following

distance between cutting edge and depth gauge.

014456

WARNING:

• An excessive distance increases the risk of kick-

back.

− The sharpening angle of 30 ° must be the same on

all cutters. Differences in angle cause the chain to

run roughly and unevenly, accelerate wear, and

lead to chain breaks.

− The side plate angle of the cutter is determined by

the depth of penetration of the round file. If the

specified file is used properly, the correct side

plate angle is produced automatically.

− Side plate angle for each saw chain are as follows:

Chain blade 90PX: 75 °

30

11

014455

File and file guiding

− Use a special round file (optional accessory) for

saw chains to sharpen the chain. Normal round

files are not suitable.

− Diameter of the round file for each saw chain is as

follows:

Chain blade 90PX: 4.5 mm (3/16")

− The file should only engage the cutter on the

forward stroke. Lift the file off the cutter on the

return stroke.

− Sharpen the shortest cutter first. Then the length

of this shortest cutter becomes the standard for all

other cutters on the saw chain.

006927

− Guide the file as shown in the figure.

− The file can be guided more easily if a file holder

(optional accessory) is employed. The file holder

has markings for the correct sharpening angle of

30 ° (align the markings parallel to the saw chain)

and limits the depth of penetration (to 4/5 of the

file diameter).

30

006928

− After sharpening the chain, check the height of the

depth gauge using the chain gauge tool (optional

accessory).

014344

− Remove any projecting material, however small,

with a special flat file (optional accessory).

− Round off the front of the depth gauge again.

Consignes de sécurité générales

pour outils électriques

MISE EN GARDE Veuillez lire toutes les mises

en garde de sécurité et toutes les instructions.

L'ignorance des mises en garde et des instructions

comporte un risque de choc électrique, d'incendie et/ou

de blessure grave.

Conservez toutes les mises en

garde et instructions pour

référence future.

Le terme ≪ outil électrique ≫ qui figure dans les

avertissements fait référence à un outil électrique

branché sur une prise de courant (par un cordon

d'alimentation) ou alimenté par batterie (sans fil).

Sécurité de la zone de travail

1. Maintenez la zone de travail propre et bien

éclairée. Les zones de travail encombrées ou

sombres ouvrent grande la porte aux accidents.

2. N'utilisez pas les outils électriques dans les

atmosphères explosives, par exemple en

présence de liquides, gaz ou poussières

inflammables. Les outils électriques produisent

des étincelles au contact desquelles la poussière

ou les vapeurs peuvent s'enflammer.

3. Assurez-vous qu'aucun enfant ou curieux ne

s'approche pendant que vous utilisez un outil

électrique. Vous risquez de perdre la maîtrise de

l'outil si votre attention est détournée.

Sécurité en matière d'électricité

4. Les fiches d'outil électrique sont conçues

pour s'adapter parfaitement aux prises de

courant. Ne modifiez jamais la fiche de

quelque façon que ce soit. N'utilisez aucun

adaptateur de fiche sur les outils électriques

avec mise à la terre. En ne modifiant pas les

fiches et en les insérant dans des prises de

courant pour lesquelles elles ont été conçues

vous réduirez les risques de choc électrique.

5. Évitez tout contact corporel avec les surfaces

mises à la terre, telles que les tuyaux,

radiateurs, cuisinières et réfrigérateurs. Le

risque de choc électrique est plus élevé si votre

corps se trouve mis à la terre.

6. N'exposez pas les outils électriques à la pluie

ou à l'eau. La présence d'eau dans un outil

électrique augmente le risque de choc électrique.

7. Ne maltraitez pas le cordon. N'utilisez jamais

le cordon pour transporter, tirer ou

débrancher l'outil électrique. Maintenez le

cordon à l'écart des sources de chaleur, de

l'huile, des objets à bords tranchants et des

pièces en mouvement. Le risque de choc

électrique est plus élevé lorsque les cordons sont

endommagés ou enchevêtrés.

8. Lorsque vous utilisez un outil électrique à

l'extérieur, utilisez un cordon prolongateur

prévu à cette fin. Les risques de choc électrique

sont moindres lorsqu'un cordon conçu pour

l'extérieur est utilisé.

20

9. Si vous devez utiliser un outil électrique dans

un endroit humide, utilisez une source

d'alimentation protégée par un disjoncteur de

fuite à la terre. L'utilisation d'un disjoncteur de

fuite à la terre réduit le risque de choc électrique.

Sécurité personnelle

10. Restez alerte, attentif à vos mouvements et

faites preuve de bon sens lorsque vous

utilisez un outil électrique. Évitez d'utiliser un

outil électrique si vous êtes fatigué ou si vous

avez pris une drogue, de l'alcool ou un

médicament. Un moment d'inattention pendant

l'utilisation d'un outil électrique peut entraîner une

grave blessure.

11. Portez des dispositifs de protection

personnelle. Portez toujours un protecteur

pour la vue. Les risques de blessure seront

moins élevés si vous utilisez des dispositifs de

protection tels qu'un masque antipoussières, des

chaussures à semelle antidérapante, une coiffure

résistante ou une protection d'oreilles.

12. Évitez les démarrages accidentels. Assurez-

vous que l’interrupteur soit en position d'arrêt

avant de brancher l'outil à la prise électrique

et/ou au bloc-piles, avant de prendre ou de

transporter l’outil. Vous ouvrez la porte aux

accidents si vous transportez les outils

électriques avec le doigt sur l’interrupteur ou si

vous les branchez alors que l’interrupteur est en

position de marche.

13. Retirez toute clé de réglage ou de serrage

avant de mettre l'outil sous tension. Toute cl é

laissée en place sur une pièce rotative de l'outil

électrique peut entraîner une blessure.

14. Maintenez une bonne position. Assurez-vous

d'une bonne prise au sol et d'une bonne

position d'équilibre en tout temps. Cela vous

permettra d'avoir une meilleure maîtrise de l'outil

dans les situations imprévues.

15. Portez des vêtements adéquats. Ne portez ni

vêtements amples ni bijoux. Vous devez

maintenir cheveux, vêtements et gants à

l'écart des pièces en mouvement. Les pièces

en mouvement peuvent happer les vêtements

amples, les bijoux et les cheveux longs.

16. Si des accessoires sont fournis pour

raccorder un appareil d'aspiration et de

collecte de la poussière, assurez-vous qu'ils

sont correctement raccordés et qu'ils sont

utilisés de manière adéquate. L'utilisation d'un

appareil d'aspiration permet de réduire les

risques liés à la présence de poussière dans l'air.

Utilisation et entretien des outils électriques

17. Ne forcez pas l'outil électrique. Utilisez l'outil

électrique adéquat suivant le type de travail à

effectuer. Si vous utilisez l'outil électrique

adéquat et respectez le régime pour lequel il a

été conçu, il effectuera un travail de meilleure

qualité et de façon plus sécuritaire.

18. N'utilisez pas l'outil électrique s'il n'est pas

possible de mettre sa gâchette en position de

marche et d'arrêt. Un outil électrique dont

l'interrupteur est défectueux représente un

danger et doit être réparé.

19. Débranchez la fiche de la source

d'alimentation et/ou retirez le bloc-piles de

l'outil électrique avant d'effectuer tout réglage,

de changer un accessoire ou de ranger l'outil

électrique. De telles mesures préventives

réduisent les risques de démarrage accidentel de

l'outil électrique.

20. Après l'utilisation d'un outil électrique,

rangez-le hors de portée des enfants et ne

laissez aucune personne l'utiliser si elle n'est

pas familiarisée avec l'outil électrique ou les

présentes instructions d'utilisation. Les outils

électriques représentent un danger entre les

mains de personnes qui n'en connaissent pas le

mode d'utilisation.

21. Veillez à l’entretien des outils électriques.

Assurez-vous que les pièces mobiles ne sont

pas désalignées ou coincées, qu’aucune

pièce n’est cassée et que l’outil électrique n’a

subi aucun dommage affectant son bon

fonctionnement. Le cas échéant, faites

réparer l'outil électrique avant de l'utiliser. De

nombreux accidents sont causés par des outils

électriques mal entretenus.

22. Maintenez les outils tranchants bien aiguisés

et propres. Un outil tranchant dont l'entretien est

effectué correctement et dont les bords sont bien

aiguisés risquera moins de se coincer et sera

plus facile à maîtriser.

23. Utilisez l'outil électrique, ses accessoires, ses

embouts, etc., en respectant les présentes

instructions, en tenant compte des conditions

de travail et du type de travail à effectuer.

L'utilisation d'un outil électrique à des fins autres

que celles prévues peut entraîner une situation

dangereuse.

Utilisation et entretien des outils alimentés par

batterie

24. Pour recharger, utilisez uniquement le

chargeur spécifié par le fabricant. L'utilisation

d'un chargeur conçu pour un type donné de bloc-

piles comporte un risque d'incendie lorsqu'il est

utilisé avec un autre type de bloc-piles.
