 Always be aware of what you are doing when
using the chain saw. Use common sense. Do
not operate the chain saw when you are tired, ill,
upset, or under the influence of alcohol, drugs,
or medication.
 Do not expose the chain saw to rain.
 Do not use the chain saw in damp or wet
locations.
 Stay alert and pay attention to what you are
doing. Use common sense when using this unit.
 Keep all parts of your body away from the saw
chain when the unit is running.
 Never let anyone use your chain saw who has
not received adequate instructions in its proper
use. This applies to rentals as well as privately
owned saws.
 Before you start the unit, make sure the saw
chain is not contacting any object.
 Stop the chain saw before setting it down.
 To avoid accidental starting, never carry the unit
with your finger on the switch trigger.
 Maintain the unit with care. Keep the cutting
edge sharp and clean for best performance and
to reduce the risk of injury. Follow instructions
for lubricating and changing accessories.
 Do not operate a chain saw with one hand! Use
a firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the
chain saw handles. Serious injury to the opera-
tor, helpers, bystanders, or any combination
of these persons may result from one-handed
operation. A chain saw is intended for two-
handed use.
 Guard against electric shock – Avoid body con-
tact with grounded surfaces such as metal pipes
and wire fences. There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is grounded.
 Do not operate a chain saw that is damaged,
improperly adjusted, or not completely and
securely assembled. Chain should slow to a
stop when the switch trigger is released. If the
chain continues to turn after the switch trigger
has been released, have the unit serviced by an
authorized service center.
CHAIN SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
 Check for damaged parts. Check for alignment
of moving parts, binding of moving parts, break-
age of parts, mounting, and any other condi-
tions that may affect its operation. A guard or
other part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced by an authorized service
center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in
this manual.
 All chain saw service, other than the items listed
in the operation and maintenance sections,
should be performed by an authorized service
center.
 Always maintain a proper stance.
 Do not use chain saw if switch does not turn it on
and off. Have switch replaced by an authorized
service center.
 Do not adapt your power head to a bow guide
or use it to power any attachments or devices
not listed for the saw.
 Disconnect chain saw from power supply when
not in use, before servicing, and when making
adjustments and changing attachments, such
as saw chain and guard.
 Do not cut vines and/or small underbrush.
 Do not force the chain saw. The job can be per-
formed better and safer at the rate for which it
was intended.
 When clearing jammed material or servicing
the unit, make sure all power switches are off
and the battery pack is removed or discon-
nected. Unexpected actuation of the chain saw
while clearing jammed material or servicing may
result in serious personal injury.
 Always use the right product for your applica-
tion. The chain saw should be used for cutting
wood only. Never use the chain saw to cut plas-
tic, masonry or non-wood building materials.
 Store chain saw when not charging or when not
in use. Chain saw should be stored in a dry and
high or locked area out of the reach of children.
When storing chain saw place the scabbard on
the bar and chain.
 Use this product only with batteries and char-
gers listed in tool/appliance/battery pack/char-
ger correlation supplement 987000-432.
