Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and
fingers encircling the chain saw han-
dles, with both hands on the saw and
position your body and arm to allow
you to resist kickback forces. Kickback
forces can be controlled by the opera-
tor, if proper precautions are taken. Do
not let go of the chain saw.

•
Do not overreach and do not cut above
shoulder height. This helps prevent
unintended tip contact and enables
better control of the chain saw in unex-
pected situations.
•
Only use replacement bars and
chains specified by the manufacturer.
Incorrect replacement bars and chains
may cause chain breakage and/or
kickback.
•
Follow the manufacturer's sharpen-
ing and maintenance instructions for
the saw chain. Decreasing the depth
gauge height can lead to increased
kickback.
13. Before starting work, check that the
chain saw is in proper working order
and that its condition complies with the
safety regulations. Check in particular
that:
•
The chain brake is working properly;
•
The run-down brake is working
properly;
•
The bar and the sprocket cover are
fitted correctly;
•
The chain has been sharpened and
tensioned in accordance with the
regulations.
14. Do not start the chain saw with the
chain cover being installed on it. Starting
the chain saw with the chain cover being
installed on it may cause the chain cover
to thrown out forward resulting in personal
injury and damage to objects around the
operator.
Additional Safety Warnings:
1.
