OPERATION
PREPARATION FOR CUTTING
PROPER GRIP ON HANDLES
See Figures 9 - 11.
Refer to Important Safety Instructions 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. Improper opera-
tion of the chain saw could result in serious
personal injury.
 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.
Improper operation of the chain saw could
result in serious personal injury.
