20" 52CC CHAINSAW

ALWAYS USE TWO HANDS WHEN
OPERATING THE CHAINSAW
Contact of the guide bar tip with any object should be
avoided.
Tip contact may cause the guide bar to move suddenly upward and backward, which
may cause serious injury.
Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning and changing accessories.
Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may either break or increase the chance for
kickback.
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery
causing loss of control.
Cut wood only. Do not use chainsaw for purposes not intended. For example: do not
use chainsaw for cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood building materials. Use of the
chainsaw for operations different than intended could result in a hazardous situation.
WARNING!
Use the chainsaw, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed.
Use of the chainsaw for operations different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
CAUSES AND OPERATOR PREVENTION OF KICKBACK
WARNING!
Kickback may occur when the moving chain contacts an object at the
upper portion of the tip of the guide bar or when the wood closes in and pinches the
saw chain in the cut. Contact at the upper portion of the tip of the guide bar can cause
the chain to dig into the object and stop the chain for an instant. The result is a lightning
fast reverse reaction which kicks the guide bar up and back toward the operator. If the
saw 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 saw control which
can result in serious injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into the
saw. As a chainsaw user, you should take several steps to keep your cutting jobs free
from accident or injury.
Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers encircling the chainsaw 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 chainsaw.
Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder height. This helps prevent unintended
tip contact and enables better control of the chainsaw in unexpected situations.
Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer. Incorrect
replacement 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.
With a basic understanding of kickback, you can reduce or eliminate the element of
surprise. Sudden surprise contributes to accidents.
