SAFETY INFORMATON
1.4 Transportation Safety
■
Use the lifting bail and appropriate lifting equipment to ensure the safe movement of the saw.
■
DO NOT use the handle bars and/or front pointer as lifting points.
■
NEVER tow the saw behind a vehicle.
■
Ensure that both pointer bars are positioned appropriately to minimize their exposure during
transportation.

Safeguard against extreme saw attitudes relative to level. Engines tipped to extreme angles
may cause oil to gravitate into the cylinder head making the engine difficult to start.
■
NEVER transport the saw with the blade mounted.
