SAFETY
7.
Keep all parts of your body away from the saw chain when the engine is
running.
8.
Before you start the engine, make sure that the saw chain is not
contacting anything.
9.
Carry the chainsaw with the engine stopped, the guide bar and saw
chain to the rear, and the muffler away from your body.
10. Do not operate a chainsaw that is damaged, improperly adjusted, or not
completely and securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops
moving when the throttle control trigger is released.
11. Shut off the engine before setting the chainsaw down.
12. Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and saplings
because slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped
toward you or pull you off balance.
13. When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for spring-back so
that you will not be struck when the tension in the wood fibers is
released.
14. Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil or fuel mixture.
15. Operate the chainsaw only in well ventilated areas.
16. Do not operate a chainsaw in a tree unless you have been specifically
trained to do so.
17. All chainsaw service, other than items listed in the Instruction manual
maintenance instructions, should be performed by competent service
personnel. (For example, if improper tools are used to remove the
flywheel or if an improper tool is used to hold the flywheel in order to
remove the clutch, structural damage to the flywheel could occur and
could subsequently cause the flywheel to burst.)
18. When transporting your chainsaw, use the appropriate guide bar cover.
19. A spark arrester muffler approved to SAE Standard J335 is standard on
this chainsaw to reduce the possibility of forest fires. Do not operate the
chainsaw with a loose or defective muffler. Do not remove the spark
arrester screen.
20. When using a chainsaw a fire extinguisher should be available.
21. When felling, keep at least 2 tree lengths between yourself and your
fellow workers.
22. Follow instructions in your operator's manual for starting the chainsaw.
23. Never adjust the guide bar or saw chain when the engine operating.
24. When boring with the chainsaw, the initial cut should be introduced with
the lower part of the nose (tip) until the hole is sufficiently large so as to
introduce the entire nose (tip) of the guide bar. This technique should
reduce the danger of kickback.
25. Allow your chainsaw to cool before refueling, and do not smoke while
refueling.
