FOR SAFE OPERATION
Before operate the product
Before using our products, please read this manual carefully to understand the proper use of
your unit.
Never operate a chain saw when you are fatigued, ill, or upset, or under the influence of medi-
cation that may make you drowsy, or if you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Operate the chain saw only in well ventilated areas. Never start or run the engine inside a closed
room or building. Exhaust fumes contain dangerous carbon monoxide.
Never cut in high wind, bad weather, when visibility is poor or in very high or low temperatures.
Always check the tree for dead branches which could fall during the felling operation.
Use safety and slip-resistant footwear, snug fitting clothing and eye, hearing and head protec-
tion devices. Use the anti-vibration(AV) glove. It is believed that a condition called Raynaud’s
phenomenon, which affects the fingers of certain individuals may be brought about by exposure
to vibration and cold. Loss of color and numbness in the fingers. The following precautions are
strongly recommended because the minimum exposure which might trigger the ailment is unk-
nown. Keep your body warm, especially the head, neck, feet, ankles, hands and wrists. Main-
tain good blood circulation by performing vigorous arm exercises during frequent work breaks
and also by not smoking. Keep the saw chain sharp and the saw, including the AV system,
well maintained. A dull chain will increase cutting time, and pressing a dull chain through wood
will increase the vibrations transmitted to your hands. A saw with loose components or with
damaged or worn AV buffers will also tend to have higher vibration levels. Limit the hours of
operation. All the above mentioned precautions do not guarantee that you will not sustain white
finger disease or carpal tunnel syndrome. Therefore, continual and regular users should monitor
closely the condition of their hands fingers. If any of the above symptoms appear, seek medical
advice immediately.
Always use caution when handling fuel. Wipe up all spills and then move the chain saw at least
ten (10) feet three (3m) from the fueling point before starting the engine.
Eliminate all sources of sparks or flame (ie. smoking, open flames, or work that can cause
sparks) in the areas where fuel is mixed, poured, or stored. Do not smoke while handling fuel
or while operating the chain saw.
Do not allow other persons to be near the chain saw when starting the engine or cutting a wood.
Keep bystanders and animals out of the work area. Children, pets, and bystanders should be a
minimum of 30 feet (10m) away when you start or operate the chain saw.
Never start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing, and planned retreat path
from the falling tree.
Always hold the chain saw firmly with both hands when the engine is running. Use a firm grip
with thumb and fingers encircling the chain saw handles.
Keep all parts of your body away from the saw chain when the engine is running. Before you
start the engine, make sure the saw chain is not contacting anything.
Always carry the chain saw with the engine stopped, the guide bar and saw chain to the rear,
and the muffler away from your body.
Always inspect the chain saw before each use for worn, loose, or changed parts. Never operate
a chain saw that is damaged, improperly adjusted, or is not completely and securely assembled.
Be sure that the saw chain stops moving when the throttle control trigger is released.
All chain saw service, other than the items listed in the Operator’s Manual, should be perfor-
med by competent chain saw service personnel. (e.g., if improper tools are used to remove
the flywheel, or if an improper tool is used to hold the flywheel in order to remove the clutch,
structural damage to the flywheel could occur which could subsequently cause the flywheel to
disintegrate).
Always shut off the engine before setting it down.
