IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
wARNING: 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 lightning fast re-
verse 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
injury to user.
KICKBACK
wARNING: This product con-
tains chemicals known to the State
of California to cause cancer or
birth defects, or other reproduc-
tive harm.
wARNING: Some dust created
by power sanding, sawing, grind-
ing, drilling, and other construc-
tion activities contains chemicals
known (to the state of California)
to cause cancer, birth defects, or
other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based
paints
• crystalline silica from
bricks and cement and
other masonry products
• arsenic and chromium
from chemically-treated
lumber
Your risk from these exposures
varies, depending on how often
you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals:
work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equip-
ment, such as those dust masks
that are specially designed to filter
out microscopic particles.
This saw has a low-kickback chain and re-
duced kickback guide bar. Both items reduce
the chance of kickback. Low-kickback saw
chain is a chain which met the kickback
performance requirements of ANSI B175.1.
Kickback can still occur with this saw.
Follow assembly instructions on page 11. Do
not remove front hand guard. Do not replace
front hand guard with substitute.
The following steps will reduce the risk of
kickback.
• Use both hands to grip saw while saw
is running:
- For chain saw, use both hands to grip
saw while saw is running. Use firm
grip. Thumbs and fingers must wrap
around saw handles.
- For polesaw, use one hand to grip
the handle and the other hand to grip
the pole. Use firm grip. Thumbs and
fingers must wrap around pole and
handle.
• Keep all safety items in place on saw.
Make sure they work properly.
• Chain saw - do not overreach or cut
above shoulder height.
• Polesaw - do not overreach or extend
arms above shoulder height.
• Keep solid footing and balance at all
times.
• Stand slightly to left side of saw. This
keeps your body from being in direct
line with chain.
• Do not let guide bar nose touch any-
thing when chain is moving (see Figure
1).
• Never try cutting through two logs
at same time. Only cut one log at a
time.
• Do not bury guide bar nose or try
plunge cut (boring into wood using
guide bar nose).
• Watch for shifting of wood or other
forces that may pinch chain.
• Use extreme caution when reentering a
previous cut.
• Use low-kickback chain and guide bar
supplied with this chain saw. Only re-
place these parts with chains and guide
bars listed in this manual.
• Never use dull or loose chain. Keep
chain sharp with proper tension.
