• Toreduce r isk ofelectrical shock, use
extension cords s pecifically
marked as
suitable foroutdoor appliances.
The
electrical rating o fthecord must notbe
less than therating o ftheunit. T he
cord must b emarked with suffix
" W-A"
(in Canada, "W"). Use a polarized
cord. Make sure your extension cord
is in good condition. Inspect extension
cord before use and replace if dam-
aged. Do not use a damaged cord.
Cord insulation must be intact with no
cracks or deterioration.
Plug connec-
tors must be undamaged. An under-
sized extension cord will cause a drop
in line voltage resulting in loss d pow-
er and overheating. If in doubt, use the
next heavier gauge. The lower the
gauge number, the heavier the cord
(see SELECT AN EXTENSION CORD in
the OPERATION section). DO not use
multiple cords.
• Do not abuse cord. Never carry the
unit by the extension cord or yank
extension cord to disconnect
unit.
• Secure extension cord to power cord
to prevent disconnection
from unit.
• Do not use the unit if the switch does
not turn the unit on and off properly,
or if the lock-out does not work. Re-
pairs to the switch must be made by
a Sears Service Center.
• Keep extension cord clear of opera-
tor and obstacles at all times. Posi-
tion cord so that it will not be caught
on branches. Do not expose cords to
heat, oil, water, or sharp edges.
• To avoid the possibility of electric
shock, avoid body contact with any
grounded conductor, such as metal
fences or pipes.
• Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCl) protection should be provided
on circuit or outlet to be used. Re-
ceptacles are available having built-
in GFCl protection and may be used
for this measure of safety. Inspect
chain saw cords periodically
and if
damaged, have repaired by a Sears
Service Center.
GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK
Follow all safety rules to help avoid kick-
back and other forces which can result
in serious injury.

a_IbWARNING:
Avoid kickback which
can result in serious injury. Kickback
is the backward, upward or sudden for-
ward motion of the guide bar occurring
when the saw chain near the upper tip
of the guide bar contacts any object
such as a log or branch, or when the
wood closes in and pinches the saw
chain in the cut. Contacting a foreign
object in the wood can also result in
loss of chain saw control.
• Rotational
Kickback
can occur
when the moving chain contacts an
object at the upper tip of the guide
bar. This contact can cause the
chain to dig into the object, which
stops the chain for an instant. The
result is a lightning fast, reverse
reaction which kicks the guide bar up
and back toward the operator.
• Pinch-Kickback
can occur when the
the wood closes in and pinches the
moving saw chain in the cut along
the top of the guide bar and the saw
chain is suddenly stopped. This sud-
den stopping of the chain results in a
reversal of the chain force used to
cut wood and causes the saw to
move in the opposite direction of the
chain rotation. The saw is driven
straight back toward the operator.
