■ Cut wood only. Don’t use chain saw for pur-

poses not intended – for example – Don’t use

chain saw for cutting plastic, masonry or non-

wood building materials. Use of the chain saw

for operations different then intended could result

in a hazardous situation.

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 be-

low:

■ 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 opera-

tor, if proper precautions are taken. Do not let go

of the chain saw.

■ Do not over reach and do not cut above shoul-

der height. This helps prevent unintended tip

contact and enables better control of the chain

saw in unexpected situations.

■ Only use replacement bars and chains speci-

fied 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 in-

The chain saw is intended for sawing of trees, tree

trunks, branches, wooden beams, planks, etc. Cuts

can be sawed with or across the grain. This product

is not suitable for sawing mineral materials.

This manual gives instructions on the correct as-

sembly and safe use of your chain saw. It is impor-

tant that you read these instructions carefully.
