WARNING

To reduce the risk of cut injuries, keep

hands and feet away from the cutting

tool. Never touch a moving cutting tool

with your hand or any other part of your

body.

WARNING

Keep proper footing and balance at all

times. Special care must be taken in

slippery conditions (wet ground, snow)

and in difficult, overgrown terrain. Watch

for hidden obstacles such as tree

stumps, roots, rocks, holes and ditches

to avoid stumbling. There is increased

danger of slipping on freshly debarked

logs. For better footing, clear away fallen

branches, scrub and cuttings. Be

extremely cautious when working on

slopes or uneven ground.

WARNING

Take extreme care in wet and freezing

weather (rain, snow, ice). Put off the

work when the weather is windy, stormy

or rainfall is heavy.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury from loss of

control, never work on a ladder or any

other insecure support. Never hold the

machine above shoulder height. Do not

overreach.

WARNING

Never work in a tree unless you have

received specific, professional training

for such work, are properly secured

(such as tackle and harness system or a

lift bucket), have both hands free for

operating the chain saw in a cramped

environment and have taken proper

precautions to avoid injury from falling

limbs or branches.

Position the chain saw in such a way

that your body is clear of the cutting

attachment whenever the engine is

running. Stand to the left of cut while

bucking.

Never put pressure on the saw when

reaching the end of a cut. The pressure

may cause the bar and rotating chain to

pop out of the cut or kerf, go out of

control and strike the operator or some

other object. If the rotating chain strikes

some other object, a reactive force may

cause the moving chain to strike the

operator.

Working Conditions

Operate and start your power tool only

outdoors in a well ventilated area.

Operate it under good visibility and

daylight conditions only. Work carefully.

To reduce the risk

of serious or fatal

injury to the opera-

tor or bystanders

from loss of con-

trol, never use the

saw with one

hand. It is more

difficult for you to

control reactive

forces and to pre-

vent the bar and

chain from skating

or bouncing along

the limb or log.

Even for those

compact saws

designed for use

in confined

spaces, one-

handed operation

is dangerous

because the oper-

ator may lose

control.
