11.
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and
grease.
Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing
loss of control.
12.
Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for pur-
poses not intended.
For example: do not use
chain saw for cutting plastic, masonry or non-
wood building materials. Use of the chain saw for
operations different than intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
13.
Causes and operator prevention of kickback:
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the
guide bar touches an object, or when the wood
closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden
reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and
back towards the operator. Pinching the saw chain
along the top of the guide bar may push the guide
bar rapidly back towards the operator. Either of
these reactions may cause you to lose control of
the saw which could result in serious personal
injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the safety
devices built into your saw. As a chain saw user,
you should take several steps to keep your cutting
jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incor-
rect operating procedures or conditions and can be
avoided by taking proper precautions as given below:
•
Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers
encircling the chain saw handles, 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 operator, 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 unin-
tended tip contact and enables better control
of the chain saw in unexpected situations.
•
Only use replacement bars and chains spec
-
ified by the manufacturer. Incorrect replace
-
ment bars and chains may cause chain
breakage and/or kickback.
•
Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and
maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead
to increased kickback.
14.
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 ten
-
sioned in accordance with the regulations.
15.
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.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING:
DO NOT let comfort or familiarity
