People with pacemakers
should not use chain saws. Chain
saws produce strong electromagnetic
fields that can cause pacemaker
interference or pacemaker failure.
People with pacemakers should
consult their physician(s) for advice.
Maintain Chain Saw With Care -
16.
Keep cutting edge sharp and clean
for best performance and to reduce
the risk of injury. Follow instructions
for lubricating and changing acces-
sories. Inspect cord periodically, and
if damaged, have it repaired by an
authorized service facility. Inspect ex-
tension cords periodically and replace
if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean,
and free from oil and grease.
Check Damaged Parts - Before
17.
further use, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will oper-
ate properly and perform its intended
function. Check for alignment of mov-
ing parts, binding of moving parts,
breakage of parts, mounting, and any
other condition that may affect its op-
eration. A guard or other part that is
damaged should be properly repaired
or replaced by a qualified technician
unless indicated elsewhere in this
manual.
Kickback precautions
Kickback is a dangerous reaction that
18.
can lead to serious injury. Kickback
may occur when the moving Chain
contacts an object at the upper por-
tion of the tip of the Guide Bar (11) or
when the wood closes in and pinches
the Saw Chain (10) in the cut. Con-
tact at the upper portion of the tip of
the Guide Bar can cause the Chain
to dig into the wood and stop the
Chain for an instant. The result is a
quick, reverse reaction which kicks
the Guide Bar up and back toward
the operator. If the Chain is pinched
along the top of the Guide Bar, the
Guide Bar can be driven rapidly back
toward the operator. Either of these
reactions can cause loss of Chain
Saw control which can result in seri-
ous injury. Do not rely only upon the
safety devices built into the Chain
Saw. As an operator, you should take
several steps to keep the cutting job
free from accident or injury:
Make sure the area in which you
•
are cutting is free from obstructions.
Do not allow the nose of the Guide
Bar to contact a log, branch, fence,
or any other obstruction while you
are operating the tool.
Always cut with the motor running
•
at full speed.
Always keep the Chain clean and
•
sharp.
Keep Chain Cover (13) and any
•
other guards and safety devices in
