OPERATION
Preparation for Cutting
Proper Grip on Handles
See Figures 10 - 12.
Refer to General Power Tool Safety Warnings earlier
in this manual for appropriate safety equipment.
 Wear non-slip gloves for maximum grip and
protection.
 Hold the saw firmly with both hands. Always
keep your left hand on the front handle and your
right hand on the rear handle so that your body
is to the left of the chain line.
WARNING
Never use a left-handed (cross-handed) grip,
or any stance which would place your body or
arm across the chain line.
 Maintain a proper grip on the saw whenever
the unit is running. The fingers should encircle
the handle and the thumb is wrapped under the
handlebar. This grip is least likely to be broken
(by a kickback or other sudden reaction of the
saw). Any grip in which the thumb and fingers
are on the same side of the handle, is danger-
ous because a slight kick of the saw can cause
loss of control.
WARNING
Do not operate the switch trigger with your left
hand and hold the front handle with your right
hand. Never allow any part of your body to be
in the chain line while operating a saw.
Proper Cutting Stance
See Figures 13 - 14.
WARNING
Always use the proper cutting stance de-
scribed in this section. Never kneel when using
the chain saw, except when felling a tree as
illustrated in Figure 14. Kneeling could result in
loss of stability and control of the chain saw,
resulting in serious personal injury.
 Weight should be balanced with both feet on
solid ground.
 Keep left arm with elbow locked in a "straight
arm" position to withstand any kickback force.
