Safety precautions for electric chain saw users
ENGLISH
Kickback safety precautions
STOP
WARNING!
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 can, in some cases, cause a lightning
fast reverse REACTION, kicking the guide bar up
and back towards the operator.
• Pinching the chain along the top of the guide
bar may push the guide bar rapidly back towards
the operator.
• Either of these reactions may cause the operator to
lose control of the saw, resulting in serious personal
injury.
Do not rely exclusively on the safety devices built
into your saw. As a user of an electric chain saw, you
should take a few steps to keep your cutting jobs
free from accident or injury.
1. With a basic understanding of kickback, you can
reduce or eliminate the element of surprise.
Sudden surprise contributes to accidents.
2. Keep a good firm grip on the saw with both hands,
the right hand on the rear handle and the left hand
on the front handle, as long as motor is running.
Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling
the handles of the electric chain saw.A firm grip will
help you reduce kickback and maintain control of
the saw. Don’t let go of a running chain saw!
3. Ensure that the area in which you are cutting is
free from obstacles. Do not let the tip of the guide
bar come in contact with logs, branches, or any
other objects while the chain is running.
4. Cut at high motor speed.
5. Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.
6. Follow chain manufacturer’s sharpening and
maintenance instructions.
7. Use only replacement bars and chains specified by
the manufacturer, or the equivalent.
Kickback safety features
1. Reduced-Kickback Guide Bar, designed with a small
radius tip which reduces the size of the kickback
zone.
A Reduced Kickback Guide Bar is a bar which has
been demonstrated to significantly reduce the
force and incidence of kickback when tested
in accordance with UL 1662, Safety Standards
for Electric Chain Saws.
2. Low-Kickback Chain designed with a contoured
depth gauge and guard link which deflect the
kickback force and allow wood to gradually ride into
the cutter.Low-Kickback Saw Chain is chain which
has met the kickback performance requirements of
ANSI B 175.1.
3. Hand guard designed to reduce the chance of your
left hand coming into contact with the chain if it slips
off the front handle.
4. The relative position of front and rear handles is
designed to provides better control, balance, and
resistance to kickback
5. Chain brake designed to stop the chain if activated
while chain is running.
STOP
WARNING!
Do not mount any bow guide on the electric chain
saw. Any electric chain saw equipped with a bow
guide is potentially very dangerous.This electric
chain saw is not designed for use with a bow guide.
The use of a bow guide on an electric chain saw is
more hazardous because of the potential for the bow
guide to come into contact with the cable, causing loss
of control and the likelihood of electric shock.
To contribute to safe operation, your electric chain saw
is equipped with the following important safety devices:
• Chain brake
• Power trigger lockout
• Rear hand guard
• Chain catcher
Do not operate your chain saw unless all these safety
devices are properly installed and functioning.
Operating your saw without these safety features
increases the risk of injury to yourself and to others.
Do not use any other combination of chain and guide
bar which is not equivalent to the original equipment.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious
injury.
A worn or damaged chain og guide bar may break
and cause serious injury or death. Replace entire
chain if it is damaged or broken.
Sharpen and maintain chain according to
manufacturer’s instructions. An incorrectly sharpened
chain increases the chain’s tendency to kick back.

protection when operating
a chain saw.
Personal Equipment
Your condition
Never operate an electric chain saw when you are tired,
angry, emotionally upset or under the influence of
alcohol, drugs, medications or anyting which could
affect your vision, alertness, coordination or judgement.
Cutting wood can be strenuous - check with your doctor
before undertaking this kind of work.
Clothing
Thrown Objects
When the motor is running at cutting speed, the saw
chain runs at approximately 30 - 35 mph (14 m/s).
It is capable of throwing objects such as chips and small
pieces of wood with considerable force, and can cause
injury, especially to the eyes.
CAUTION!
Always wear safety goggles
or a face shield to minimize
the risk of injury from
thrown objects
Proper clothing and equipment (as shown) protect you
from potensial hazards such as lacerations, thrown
objects and hearing impairment.

Introduction
We strongly recommend the use of this safety
equipment by all users at all times.
Because safety records demonstrate a clear decrease
in the rate of injury when safety equipment is used,
most professional logging operations now require their
operators to wear these items.Take advantage of their
experience.Your dealer will gladly assist in finding the
right safety equipment for you.
Complete Protective Helmet
This consists of a lightweight hard-hat with ear-muffs
and face shield attached.The main advantage is that
everything you need is in one piece of equipment rather
than three. Ear-muffs attached to the hard-hat also help
keep it securely on your head.
The hard-hat is intended to reduce the risk of injuries
from objects that may fall from a tree. Ear-muffs reduce
the risk of hearing impairment from operating noisy
equipment over a prolonged period of time.The face
shield protects the face from small branches and the
eyes from flying dust and chips.
ENGLISH
IMPORTANT!
