READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE OPERATING
SAFETY BASICS
• Carefully read and understand the operator's manual of the battery that powers this unit.
• Be thoroughly familiar with the controls and the proper use of the unit. Know how to stop the unit and
disengage the controls quickly.
• Stay alert! Do not operate the unit when tired, ill or under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication.
• Never allow children to operate the unit. Never allow adults to operate the unit without proper instruction.
• Do not allow the unit to be used as a toy.
• Make sure that all guards and safety attachments are properly installed before operating the unit.
• Keep these instructions. Refer to them often and use them to instruct other users. If loaning someone this
unit, also loan them these instructions.
PRELIMINARY SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•
DO NOT
rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into the unit.
• Keep bystanders, especially children and pets, at least 100 feet (30 m) away. If anyone enters the
work area, stop the unit!
• Keep the work area clean. Cluttered areas invite injuries. Do not start cutting until the work area is clear
and free from obstructions, there is secure footing and a planned retreat path from falling branches.
• Always wear appropriate eye and ear protection when operating this unit. Wear safety goggles, or
safety glasses with side shields, that are marked as meeting ANSI Z87.1-1989 standards. Failure to
do so could result in serious eye injury caused by thrown or falling objects. If the operation is dusty,
wear a face mask or dust mask. Use a hardhat or other type of safety helmet.
• Dress appropriately, wear heavy, snug-fitting clothes (long pants and a long sleeve shirt), non-slip
protective gloves and steel-toed safety boots. Do not wear loose clothing, jewelry, short pants,
sandals or go barefoot. Secure hair above shoulder level to prevent entanglement in moving parts.
• Only use the unit in daylight or good artificial light.
• Only use the unit for the purpose intended.
UNDERSTANDING KICKBACK
•
Rotational Kickback
can happen when the upper tip of
the guide bar contacts an object while the chain is
moving (Fig. 1 & 2). This can cause the chain to dig into
the object and momentarily stop moving. The guide bar
is then kicked up and back toward the operator in a
lightning-fast reverse reaction.
•
Pinch Kickback
can happen when the wood on either
side of a cut closes in and pinches the moving saw chain
along the top of the guide bar. This can cause the chain
to instantly stop. The chain force is then reversed,
causing the saw to move in the opposite direction,
sending the saw straight back toward the operator.
•
Pull-In
can happen when the moving chain on the
bottom of the guide bar hits a foreign object inside
the wood. This can cause the chain to suddenly stop.
The saw is then pulled forward and away from the
operator, which could potentially result in the loss of
control of the saw.
KICKBACK SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•
DO NOT
over reach.
•
DO NOT
make cuts with the tip of the guide bar (Fig. 1).
•
DO NOT
let the tip of the guide bar contact any object,
such as a log, branch, ground or other obstruction.
Remove or avoid any obstructions that might impact the
tip of the guide bar while cutting (Fig. 3).
•
DO NOT
cut above shoulder height.
•
DO NOT
cut more than one log or branch at a time.
•
DO NOT
twist the saw when removing the guide bar from
an undercut while bucking.
• Never start the saw when the guide bar is inside an
existing cut. Be extremely careful when re-entering a cut.
• Grip the unit firmly with both hands when the motor is
running. Keep the left hand on the front handle and the right
hand on the rear handle. Use a firm grip with thumbs and
fingers encircling the handles. Stand slightly to the left of the
unit to avoid being in the direct line of the saw chain. Follow
all the
Proper Grip on Handles
instructions in the
Operating
Instructions
section.
• Keep proper footing and balance at all times.

SERVICE INFORMATION
DANGER:
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. In some cases, tip contact
may cause a lightening-fast reverse action, kicking the guide bar rapidly 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 a loss of control over the saw, which could result in
serious injury to the user. Contact with foreign objects within the wood can also induce a loss of chain
saw control.
