BEFORE OPERATING SAW
1. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do
not operate saw when you are tired.
2. Only well-instructed adults should operate chain
saw. Never allow children to operate chain saw.
3. Use proper extension cord.
4. Do not operate chain saw
• in rain or in damp or wet areas
• if saw is damaged, adjusted wrong, or not fully
and securely assembled
• while in tree or on a ladder
5. Wear snug-fitting and protective clothes including
gloves, safety shoes, goggles, safety helmet, and
ear plugs. Use rubber gloves and shoes if working
outdoors.
6. Before cutting, provide a clear work area, secure
footing, and planned retreat path from falling tree.
7. The typical hand-arm vibration at full load while
cutting wood when tested in accordance to ISO/
DIS 7205 is 23.8 M/S 2 .
8. The typical A-weighted noise levels at full load
while cutting wood when tested in accordance to
ISO 7182 are:
Sound Pressure Level 95 DB(A)
Sound Power Level 100 DB(A)
WHILE OPERATING SAW
1. Keep children, animals, and bystanders away from
chain saw and extension cord. Only chain saw user

®
2. Grip chain saw firmly with both hands. Thumbs
and fingers must wrap around saw handles. Never
operate chain saw with one hand. Never use hand
guard as handle.
3. Secure wood you are cutting by using clamps or
chocks.
4. Keep all parts of body away from chain when saw
is running.
5. Cut small brush and saplings with extreme care.
Slender material may catch in chain and be whipped
toward you or pull you off balance.
6. When cutting limb or tree trunk that is under
tension, use extreme caution. Be alert for wood
springing back. When tension is released, limb
could spring back and strike you.
7. Do not activate the chain brake to stop saw. Always
release trigger to stop saw.
8. Carry chain saw from one place to another
• with finger off trigger, saw stopped, and
unplugged
• by holding front handle with guide bar and chain
to rear
KICKBACK
WARNING: Beware of kickback.
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar
touches an object (see Figure B), or when the wood closes
in and pinches the saw chain in the cut. Tip contact may
cause a lightning fast reverse reaction, kicking the guide
bar up and back towards the operator (see Figure B).
Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may
push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator.
Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of
the saw which could result in serious injury to user.
The following steps will reduce the risk of kickback.
• Use both hands to grip saw while saw is running.
Use firm grip. Thumbs and fingers must wrap
around saw handles.
• Keep all safety items in place on saw. Make sure
they work properly.
• Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.
• Stand slightly to left side of saw. This keeps your
body from being in direct line with chain.
• Do not let guide bar nose touch anything when
chain is moving (see Figure B).
• Watch for shifting of wood or other forces that
may pinch chain.
• Never use dull or loose chain. Keep chain sharp
with proper tension.

4. When not in use, store chain saw in a high or locked
place that is dry and out of children's reach.

WARNING: Some dust created by power
WARNING ICON G 001
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals
known (to the state of California) to cause
cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive
harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints
• crystalline silica from bricks and ce-
ment and other masonry products
• arsenic and chromium from chemi-
cally-treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially designed
to filter out microscopic particles.
