SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
  Do not operate the saw with one hand! Serious
injury to the operator, helpers, bystanders, or
any combination of these persons may results
from one hand operation. This saw is intended
for two-handed use.

Use extreme caution when cutting small-sized
brush and saplings because slender material
may catch the saw chain and be whipped
toward you or pull you off balance.

When cutting a limb that is under tension, be
alert for spring back so that you will not be struck
when the tension in the wood fibers is released.
