IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
2
Make sure the area in which you are cutting is free from obstructions. Do not let the nose of the guide
bar contact a log, branch, or any other obstruction while you are operating the saw.
Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer or the equivalent. Maintain a firm
grip at all times, but do not squeeze the handles with constant, excessive pressures. Take frequent
breaks.
Warning:
Always stop the engine before putting a chainsaw down or carrying it. Carrying a chainsaw
with the engine.
Accidental acceleration of the engine can cause the chain to rotate. During operation, the powerhead
muffler and the material around it reach extremely high temperatures. Avoid touching the hot muffler, you
could receive serious burns.
When carrying your saw by hand, the engine must be stopped beforehand, and the saw must be in the
proper position.
Grip the front handle and place the muffler away from the body.
By vehicle: When transporting in a vehicle, keep chain and bar covered with the chain guard. Properly
secure your saw to prevent turnover, fuel spillage and damage to the saw.
Gasoline is an extremely flammable fuel. If spilled or ignited by a spark or other ignition source, it can
cause fire and serious burn injury or property damage. Use extreme caution when handling gasoline or
fuel mix.
Do not smoke or bring any fire or flame near the fuel or the chainsaw.
Note that combustible fuel
vapors may be vented from the fuel system.
Fuel your chainsaw in well-ventilated areas, outdoors only.
Always shut off the engine and allow it to
cool before refueling. Gasoline vapor pressure may build up inside the gas tank of the engine depending
on the fuel used, the weather conditions, and the venting system of the tank. In order to reduce the risk
of burns or other personal injury from escaping gas vapor and fumes, remove the fuel filler cap on this
Check for fuel leakage while refueling and during operation. If fuel or oil leakage is found, do not start or
run the engine until leak is fixed and spilled fuel has been wiped away. Take care not to get fuel on your
clothing. If this happens, change your clothing immediately.
Your chainsaw is a one-person saw.
DO NOT allow other persons to be near the running chainsaw
.
Start and operate your saw without assistance. Proper starting methods reduce the risk of injury. Do not
drop start. This method is very dangerous because you may lose control of the saw.
Be sure that the guide bar and chain are clear of you and all other obstructions and objects, including
the ground. When the engine is started, the engine speed with the starting throttle lock engaged will be
fast enough for the clutch to engage the sprocket and, if the chain brake is not activated, turn the chain.
If the upper quadrant of the tip of the bar touches any object, it may cause kickback to occur (see section
on reactive forces). To reduce this risk, always engage the chain brake before starting. Never attempt to
start the chainsaw when the guide bar is in a cut.
To reduce the risk of personal injury from loss of control or contact with the running chain, do not use a
saw with incorrect idle adjustment. At correct idle speed, the chain should not rotate. For directions to
adjust idle speed.
After adjusting a chain, start the saw, let the engine run for a while, then switch engine off and recheck
chain tension. Proper chain tension is very important at all times. Operate the chainsaw under good
visibility and daylight conditions only.
Warning:
Your chainsaw produces poisonous exhaust fumes as soon as the combustible engine is
running. These gases (e.g. carbon monoxide) may be colorless and odorless. To reduce the risk of
serious or fatal injury from breathing toxic fumes, never run the chainsaw indoors or in poorly ventilated
locations. Ensure proper ventilation when working in trenches or other confined areas.
