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.
Follow instructions for lubricating, chain
tensioning and changing accessories. Improperly
tensioned or lubricated chain may either break or
increase the chance for kickback.
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and
grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery, causing
loss of control.
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 other
than 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 below:
Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers encircling
the chain saw handles, with both hands on the saw
and your body and arm positioned 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.
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.
ADDITIONAL WARNINGS
It has been reported that vibrations from hand-held
tools may contribute to a condition called Raynaud’s
Syndrome in certain individuals. Symptoms may
include tingling, numbness and blanching of the
fi ngers, usually apparent upon exposure to cold.
Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness,
diet, smoking and work practices are all thought to
contribute to the development of these symptoms. It
is presently unknown what, if any, vibrations or extent
of exposure may contribute to the condition. There
are measures that can be taken by the operator to
possibly reduce the effects of vibration:
●Keep your body warm in cold weather. When
operating the unit wear gloves to keep the hands
and wrists warm. It is reported that cold weather
is a major factor contributing to Raynaud’s
Syndrome.
●After each period of opera ion, exercise to increase
blood circulation.
●Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of
exposure per day.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition,
immediately discontinue use and see your physician about
these symptoms.
The recommended cutting capacity of his chain saw
is 153mm (6 in.) and smaller to prolong the life of the
tool and allow for safest operation. Cut ing logs with
a diameter larger than this will cause excess wear on
your tool. Logs with a maximum diameter of 229mm
(9in.) can be cut, but should only be done so rarely
and with caution.
The integral spiked bumper is designed to assist
cutting. When forced against the log while cutting it
provides a more stable pivot point.
Any chainsaw is potentially lethal if used
inappropriately. It is strongly suggested hat you seek
professional training in the safety and use of this tool.

FREQUENTLY AND USE THEM TO INSTRUCT OTHERS
WHO MAY USE THIS UNIT. IF YOU LOAN SOMEONE
