storing power tools. Such preventive
safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.

sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.

1. Keep all parts of the body away from
the saw chain when the chain saw is
operating. before you start the chain
saw, make sure the saw chain is not
contacting anything. A moment of
inattention while operating chain saws may
cause entanglement of your clothing or
body with the saw chain.
2. 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
configuration increases the risk of personal
injury and should never be done.
3. hold the power tool by insulated
gripping surfaces only, because the
saw chain may contact hidden wiring.
Saw chains contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.
