conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for

remove all wires or other foreign bodies.

by a qualified repair person us-
ing only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of
the power tool is maintained.
Chain saw safety warnings
• Keep all parts of the body
away from the saw chain when
the chain saw is operating. Be-
fore you start the chain saw,
make sure the saw chain is not
contacting anything. A moment of
inattention white operating chain saws
may cause entanglement of your cloth-
ing or body with the saw chain.
• Always hold the chain saw with
your right hand on the rear
handle and your left hand on
the front handle. Holding the chain
saw with a reversed hand configura-
tion increases the risk of personal inju-
ry and should never be done.
• Wear safety glasses and ear
protection. Other protective
equipment for the head, hands,
legs and feet is compulsory. Ad-
equate protective clothing will reduce
personal injury by flying debris or acci-
dentaI contact with the saw chain.
• Do not operate a chain saw in a
tree. Operation of a chain saw white
up in a tree may result in personal in
jury.
• Always keep proper footing
and operate the chain saw only
when standing on fixed, secure
and level surface. Slippery or un-
stable surfaces such as ladders may
cause a loss of balance or control of
the chain saw.
• When cutting a branch that
is under tension be alert for
spring back. When the tension in
the wood fibres is released the spring
loaded Iimb may strike the operator
and/or throw the chain saw out of
control.
• Use extreme caution when cut-
ting brush and saplings. The slen-
der material may catch the saw chain
and be whipped toward you or pull
you off balance.
• Carry the chain saw by the
front handle with the chain saw
switched off and away from
your body. When transporting
or storing the chain saw always
fit the guide bar cover. Proper
handling of the chain saw will reduce
the Iikelihood of accidentaI contact
with the moving saw chain.
• Follow instructions for lubri-
cating, chain tensioning and
changing accessories. Improperly
tensioned or lubricated chain may
either break or increase the chance for
kickback.
• Keep handles dry, clean, and
free from oil and grease. Greasy,
oily handles are slippery causing loss
of control.
• Cut wood only. Do not use chain
saw for purposes not intended.
For example: do not use chain
saw for cutting plastic, masonry
or non-wood building materials.
