1. Introduktion
This user manual provides essential information for the safe and efficient operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of your Scheppach PCS38 Gasoline Chainsaw. Please read this manual thoroughly before operating the chainsaw to ensure proper use and to prevent injury or damage.
The Scheppach PCS38 is a powerful gasoline chainsaw designed for cutting firewood, pruning, and general garden maintenance. It features a 35 cm ProCut guide bar and chain, a 1.8 HP (1.3 kW) 2-stroke engine with 37.2 cm³ displacement, and a cutting speed of 21 m/s for fast sawing progression.
2. Sikkerhedsinstruktioner
Always prioritize safety when operating the chainsaw. Failure to follow safety instructions can result in serious injury or death.
2.1 Generelle sikkerhedsforanstaltninger
- Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) including safety helmet, eye protection, hearing protection, gloves, and protective footwear.
- Sørg for, at arbejdsområdet er frit for tilskuere, børn og kæledyr.
- Do not operate the chainsaw when fatigued, under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
- Undersøg motorsaven før hver brug for eventuelle skader eller løse dele.
- Hold alle dele af din krop væk fra savkæden, når motoren kører.
2.2 Sikkerhed ved tilbageslag
Kickback is a sudden upward and backward motion of the guide bar that can occur when the tip of the guide bar touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut. The Scheppach PCS38 features an anti-kickback chain brake that stops the chain within milliseconds in case of kickback.

Figur 2.1: The anti-kickback chain brake and hand guard provide enhanced safety by stopping the chain rapidly during kickback events and protecting the operator's hand.
