SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
To avoid seriou s injury or death
• Establish a training program for all operators to ensure safe operation.
• The operator must be familiar with all prohibited work areas such as excessive slopes and dangerous terrain conditions.
• Do not operate the chain saw unless thoroughly trained or under the supervision of an instructor.
• Always wear safety equipment such as goggles, ear protection, breathing protection, head protection, leg protection, gloves, snug fi tting clothing
(do not operate the saw when wearing loose clothing) and safety shoes at all times when operating the chain saw.
• Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height. Maintain proper footing and balance at all times.
• Do not inspect or clean the chain saw while the hydraulic power source is connected. Accidental engagement of the chain saw can cause serious
injury.
Tool operators and maintenance personnel must always comply with the safety precautions given in this
manual and on the stickers and tags attached to the tool and hose.
These safety precautions are given for your safety. Review them carefully before operating the tool and
before performing general maintenance or repairs.
Supervising personnel should develop additional precautions relating to the specifi c work area and local
safety regulations. If so, place the added precautions in the space provided on page 4.
This tool will provide safe and dependable service if operated in accordance with the instructions given in this
manual. Read and understand this manual and any stickers and tags attached to the tool and hoses before
operation. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
• Always connect hoses to the chain saw hose couplers before energizing the hydraulic power source. Make sure all hose connections are tight.
• Do not operate the chain saw at fl uid temperatures above 140°F/60°C. Operation at higher temperatures can cause higher than normal tempera-
tures at the chain saw which can result in operator discomfort.
• Do not rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into the chain saw. As a chain saw user, several steps must be taken to keep your cutting
jobs free from accident or injury:
1. With a basic understanding of kickbacks, you can reduce or eliminate the element of surprise. Sudden surprise contributes to accidents.
2. Keep a good fi rm grip on the chain saw with both hands, the right hand on the rear handle and the left hand on the front handle when
operating the chain saw. Use a fi rm grip with thumbs and fi ngers encircling the chain saw handles. A fi rm grip helps reduce kickbacks and
maintains control of the chain saw. Do not let go.
3. Make sure the area in which you are cutting is free of obstructions.
4. Cut at rated operating speeds (gpm).
5. Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.
6. Only use replacement bars and chains specifi ed by Stanley or the equivalent.
• Make sure the chain guard is in place before operating the chain saw.
• Remove or control the water slurry to prevent yourself or others from slipping while cutting.
• Provide adequate ventilation in closed areas when operating a gas or diesel hydraulic power source.
5
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Always be well rested and mentally alert before operating the chain saw.
• Do not allow bystanders near the chain saw when starting or cutting.
• Do not start cutting until you have a clear work area and secure footing.
• Keep all parts of the body away from the chain saw during operation.
• Carry the chain saw with the tool de energized and the bar and chain to the rear of your body.
• Do not operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly adjusted, or not completely and securely assembled. Make sure the chain stops moving
when the control trigger is released.
• Keep the handle dry, clean and free of hydraulic fl uid.
• Do not use the chain saw near energized transmission lines.
• Turn off the power source or move the hydraulic control valve to neutral before setting the chain saw down.
• Use a guide bar scabbard when transporting the chain saw.
• Know the location of buried or covered electrical services before starting work.
• To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, all chain saw repair, maintenance and service must only be performed by authorized and properly trained personnel.
• Make sure the chain breaker and rivet spinner are securely mounted on fl at, clean work surfaces. Check the mounting screws/bolts often.
• Check all chain breaker and rivet spinner components regularly for wear and general condition.
• Provide adequate lighting when operating the saw in a darkened area or at night.
• Always keep critical tool markings, such as labels and warning stickers legible. Always replace stickers or decals that have become worn or damaged.
• Be observant of hydraulic and water hoses that lay about the work area, especially in trenches where they can be hidden from view due to liquids
that have accumulated within the space.
• Keep all parts of the body away from the cleats that are attached to the saw, as these are sharp and can be a puncture hazard.
• Improper handling, use, or maintenance can result in an oil leak or burst. Do not contact an oil leak as high pressure oil can cause injection into
the body.
• Never stand in the path of the discharge, ejection of material from the work piece can cause personal injury.
• Never use the saw in a potentially explosive atmosphere.
WARNING
Exposure to crystalline Silica (sometimes called “silica dust”) as a result of
cutting, breaking, drilling, or hammering of rock, concrete, asphalt or other
materials may cause Silicosis (a serious lung disease), silicosis-related illnesses, cancer, or death.
Respiratory protection is highly recommended when working with materials
containing Silica Dust.
Always wear a respirator approved for protection against crystalline silica.
