performance requirements of ANSI B175.1-1991 (when tested on
a representative sample of chain saws.
• Reduced Kickback Guide Bar - A guide bar which has been
demonstrated to reduce kickback significantly.
• Replacement Saw Chain - A chain that complies with kickback
performance requirements of ANSI B175.1-1991 when tested
with specific chain saws. It may not meet the ANSI performance
requirements when used with other saws.
• Saw Chain - A loop of chain having cutting teeth, that cut the wood,
and that is driven by the motor and is supported by the guide bar.
• Spiked Bumper (Spike) - The pointed tooth or teeth for use when
pruning to pivot the saw and maintain position while sawing.
• Switch - A device that when operated will complete or interrupt an
electrical power circuit to the motor of the chain saw.
• Switch Lockout - A movable stop that prevents the unintentional

STORAGE RECOmmENDATIONS

1. Store indoors. The best storage place is one that is cool and dry away
from direct sunlight, excess heat or cold and out of the reach of children.
2. Always reduce the tension off the chain again after finishing work.
The chain contracts as it cools down. If tension is not reduced, it can
damage the saw.
Transporting pole Saw
• Always unplug the extension cord from the Pole Saw and cover the
chain with the scabbard when transporting the Pole Saw.
