chainsaw. Keep bystanders
and animals out of the
work area.
■
DO NOT start cutting until
you have a clear work
area, secure footing, and a
planned retreat path from
falling trees or branches.
OPERATION
■
Keep all parts of your body
away from the saw’s chain
when the engine is running.
■
Before you start the
engine, make sure that the
chain is not in contact with
anything.
■
Carry the chainsaw with
the engine stopped, the
chain bar and saw chain
facing rearwards, and with
the exhaust away from
your body.
■
NEVER use a chainsaw
which is damaged,
incorrectly set, incomplete
or loosely assembled.
Make sure that the chain
rotation stops when the
chain brake is applied.
■
Shut off the engine before
setting the chainsaw down.
■
Use extreme caution when
cutting a small size bush
and saplings because
slender material may catch
in the saw chain and be
whipped towards you or
pull you off balance.
■
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.

listed in the user manual
safety and maintenance
instructions should be
performed by competent
chainsaw service
personnel.
■
When transporting
your chainsaw, use the
appropriate chain bar
cover.
■
DO NOT operate your
chainsaw near or around
flammable liquids or gases
whether in or out of doors.
An explosion and/or fire
may result.
■
Do not fill the fuel tank, oil
reservoir or lubricate whilst
the engine of the chainsaw
is running.
■
USE THE CORRECT
TOOL: Cut wood ONLY.
Do not use the chainsaw
for purposes for which
it was not intended. For
example, do not use
the chainsaw for cutting
plastic, masonry or
building materials.
■
The engine will create toxic
exhaust fumes as soon
as the engine is started.
Never work in enclosed
areas or in areas with poor
ventilation.
■
NOTE! The chainsaw
is designed for noncommercial, occasional
use for general work such

in commercial, trade or
industrial businesses or for
the equivalent purposes.
KICKBACK
Kickback may occur when
the nose or tip of the chain
bar touches an object, or
when the wood closes
in and pinches the saw
chain in the cut. If the bar
tip contacts, it may cause
an extremely fast reverse
reaction, kicking the chain
bar up and back towards
the operator. Pinching the
saw chain along the top
of the chain bar may push
the chain bar rapidly back
towards the operator. Either
of these reactions may
cause you to lose control of
the saw, which could result
in serious personal injury.
Do not rely exclusively upon
the safety devices built into
your saw. As a chainsaw
user, you should take several
steps to keep your cutting
jobs free from accident or
injury.
■
NOTE! With a basic
understanding of kickback,
you can reduce or
eliminate the element of
surprise. Sudden surprise
contributes to accidents.
■
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, when
the engine is running. Use
a firm grip with thumbs
and fingers encircling the
chainsaw handles. A firm
grip will help you reduce
kickback and maintain
control of the saw. Never
let go of the Chainsaw.
■
Make sure that the area
in which you are cutting
is free from obstructions.
Do not let the nose of
the chain bar contact a
log, branch, or any other
obstruction which could be
hit while you are operating
the saw.

■
Cut at high engine speeds.
■
Do not overreach or cut
above shoulder height.
■
Follow the manufacturer’s
sharpening and
maintenance instructions
for the saw chain.
■
Only use replacement bars
and chains specified by
the manufacturer or the

■
PINCHING the saw chain
along the BOTTOM of the
cutting (chain) bar may
PULL the saw forward
away from the operator.
■
PINCHING the saw chain
along the TOP of the
cutting (chain) bar may
PUSH the chain bar rapidly
back towards the operator.
■
Any of these reactions may
cause you to lose control
of the saw, which could
result in serious personal
injury.
Beware of the following:
Rotary recoil.
When cutting from under
an object using the top of
the chain the object may
pinch the chain and cause
either a forward force on
the chainsaw or a rearward
force on the object.
When cutting from the top
surface of an object using
the bottom of the chain the
object may pinch the chain
and cause either a rearward
force on the chainsaw or a
forward force on the object.
