Safety Precautions and
Working Techniques
This lightweight top handle chain saw is
designed specifically for in-tree surgery
and maintenance.
Due to its light weight and
special compact handle
design it is particularly
useful in confined spaces
such as in-tree work
where great maneuvera-
bility is required. For
other uses, however, a
saw with wider handle
spacing will normaly pro-
vide greater control. If the
operator is not properly
secured for two-hand
use, there is an
increased risk of injury
when working in a tree
from loss of control.
This increased risk includes injuries due
to not having a firm grip on the saw in
case of reactive forces or to loss of
control of the saw, leading, e.g., to leg
injuries from the chain saw "dropping" at
the end of the cut.
For this reason
these special
chain saws should
be used only for
work in a tree by
persons who are
trained in special
cutting and work-
ing techniques and
who are properly
secured (lift
bucket, ropes,
safety harness)
MS 150 TC
Regular chain saws with a less compact
design, i.e., (with wider spaced handles
for better control), should be used for all
other cutting work at ground level.
WARNING
Working in a tree requires the use of
special cutting and working techniques
which must be observed in order to
reduce the increased risk of personal
injury.
Never work in a tree unless you have
received specific, professional training
for such work, including training in the
use of the safety and other climbing
equipment, such as harnesses, ropes,
belts, climbing irons, snap hooks,
carabiners, etc.
Because a chain saw is a
high-speed, fast-cutting
power tool, special safety
precautions must be
observed to reduce the
risk of personal injury.
It is important that you
read, fully understand
and observe the following
safety precautions and
warnings. Read the
instruction manual and
the safety instructions
periodically. Careless or
improper use may cause
serious or fatal injury.
Save the instruction man-
ual for future reference.
WARNING
The use of this chain saw may be
hazardous. The saw chain has many
sharp cutters. If the cutters contact your
flesh, they will cut you, even if the chain
is not moving.
WARNING
Reactive forces, including kickback, can
be dangerous. Pay special attention to
the section on reactive forces.
Have your STIHL dealer show you how
to operate your chain saw. All safety
precautions that are generally observed
when working with an axe or a hand saw
also apply to the operation of chain
saws. Observe all applicable federal,
state and local safety regulations,
standards and ordinances.
WARNING
Do not lend or rent your chain saw
without the instruction manual. Be sure
that anyone using it understands the
information contained in this manual.
The use of noise emitting chain saws
may be restricted to certain times by
national, state or local regulations.
Use your chain saw only for cutting
wooden objects.
WARNING
Do not use it for other purposes, since
misuse may result in personal injury or
property damage, including damage to
the chain saw.
