FOR SAFE OPERATION
Always use caution when handling fuel.
Wipe up all spills and then move the
chain saw at least 3m from the fueling
point before starting the engine.
Eliminate all sources of sparks or flame
(i.e. smoking, open flames, or work that
can cause sparks) in the areas where fuel
is mixed, poured, or stored.
Do not smoke while handling fuel or while
operating the chain saw.
Do not allow other persons to be near
the chain saw when starting or cutting.
Keep bystanders and animals out of the
work area. Children, pets and bystanders
should be a minimum of 10 m away when
you start or operate the chain saw.
Never start cutting until you have a clear
work area, secure footing, and a planned
retreat path from falling trees.
Always hold the chain saw firmly with both
hands when the engine is running. Use
a firm grip with thumb and fingers encir-
cling the chain saw handles.
