ELECTRICAL SAFETY WARNINGS (CONT'D)
• CORD SETS: Make sure your cord set is in good
condition, with a cord that is heavy enough to carry the
current that your unit will draw. An undersized cord set
will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in a loss of
power, as well as overheating. The table shown below
illustrates the correct size to use depending on the
cord length and nameplate amperage rating. If in
doubt, use the next heavier size line gauge. The
smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord. To
prevent the cord from disconnecting from the unit, use
the cord hook shown in the Starting/Stopping
Instructions.
• Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) protection
should be provided on the circuit(s) or outlet(s) that will
be used for the unit. Use receptacles with built-in GFCI
protection for an extra measure of safety.
• Avoid dangerous environments. Never operate your unit in
damp or wet conditions. Moisture is a shock hazard.
• Inspect all extension cords and the unit power connection
periodically. Look closely for deterioration, cuts or cracks in
the insulation. Also inspect the connections for damage.
Repair or replace the cords if any defects appear.
• Do not handle the plug or the unit with wet hands.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
• Examine the electrical switches. Do not use the chain
saw if the switches do not properly turn on and off. Do
not attempt to make any repairs to the electric
switches. Take your saw to an Authorized Service
Center.
• Keep the cord away from the cutting area and to
position cord so that it will not be caught on branches,
and the like, during cutting.
• Use an extension cord heavy enough to carry the
current the tool will draw. An undersized cord will
cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating.
• This electric powered saw is classified by CSA as a
Class 2C saw. It is intended for infrequent use by
homeowner's, cottagers and campers, and for such
general applications such as clearing, pruning, cutting
firewood, etc. It is not intended for prolonged use. If
the intended use involves prolonged periods of
operation, this may cause circulatory problems in the
user's hands due to vibration. It may be appropriate to
use a saw having an anti-vibration feature.
