SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
General safety precautions
Do not use the machine without first reading and
understanding the contents of this Operator’s Manual.
• Never use the machine if you are tired, if you have drunk
alcohol, or if you are taking medication that could affect
your vision, your judgement or your co-ordination.
• Wear personal protective equipment. See instructions
under the heading Personal protective equipment.
• Keep all parts in good working order and ensure that all
fixtures are properly tightened.
• Never use a machine that is faulty. Carry out the checks,
maintenance and service instructions described in this
manual. Some maintenance and service measures must
be carried out by trained and qualified specialists. See
instructions under the heading Maintenance.
• Do not modify safety equipment. Check regularly that they
function as they should. The machine must not be run with
defective or disassembled safety equipment.
• Never allow anyone else to use the machine without first
ensuring that they have understood the contents of the
operator’s manual.
• People and animals can distract you causing you to lose
control of the machine. For this reason, always remain
concentrated and focused on the task.
• Be careful as clothing, long hair, and jewellery can get
caught in moving parts.
• Observe care when lifting. You are handling heavy parts,
which implies the risk of pinch injuries or other injuries.
Transport and storage
• Always switch off the power to the hydraulic unit and
disconnect the hoses to the saw unit before moving the
equipment.
• Dismount the blade and blade guard before transport and
storage.
• Store the equipment in a lockable area so that it is out of
reach of children and unauthorised persons.
• Use the cases provided to store the equipment.
General working instructions
• All operators shall be trained in the use of the machine.
The owner is responsible for ensuring that the operators
receive training.
• Check that the blade guard is not damaged and that it has
been fitted correctly.
• Never use blades other than original blades designed for
the machine. Check with your Husqvarna dealer to see
which blades are best suited for your usage.
• Never use a damaged or worn blade.
• Never mount or dismount the blade or blade guard without
first switching off the hydraulic unit and disconnecting the
hydraulic hoses running to the saw unit.
• Never cut without using the blade guard.
• Check that the blade is not in contact with anything when
the machine is started.
• Remain at a distance from the blade when the engine is
running.
• Water cooling must always be used. This cools the blades
and increases their life and prevents dust build-up.
• Check that all couplings, connections and hydraulic hoses
are in full working order.
• Keep the hydraulic hoses and couplings free from dirt.
• Do not misuse hoses.
• Do not use hoses that are distorted, worn or damaged.
• Check that the hoses are connected correctly to the
machine and that the hydraulic couplings lock as intended
before pressurising the hydraulic system. The couplings
are locked by turning the outer sleeve on the female
coupling so that the slot moves away from the ball.
• Never use the hydraulic hoses to lift the saw.
• Check the machine, couplings and hydraulic hoses daily
for leakage. A rupture or leak can cause a ”hydraulic fluid
injection” in the body or result in other serious physical
injury.
• Never disconnect the hydraulic hoses without first shutting
off and disconnecting the hydraulic unit and ensuring the
motors have stopped completely.
• Do not exceed the specified hydraulic fluid flow or
pressure for the tool being used. Excessive pressure or
flow can result in rupturing.
• Hoses that are marked and approved as electrically non
conductive must be used when using hydraulic tools on or
in the vicinity of electrical cables. The use of other types
of hoses can result in serious physical injury or even
death.
