18. Check damaged parts
Before further use of the tool, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully checked to deter-
mine that it will operate properly and perform its
intended function. Check for alignment of moving
parts, free running of moving parts, breakage of
parts, mounting and any other conditions that may
affect its operation. A guard or other part that is dam-
aged should be properly repaired or replaced by an
authorized service centre unless otherwise indicated
in this instruction manual. Have defective switches
replaced by an authorized service facility. Do not use
the tool if the switch does not turn it on and off.
19. Warning!
The use of any accessory or attachment, other than
those recommended in this instruction manual, may
present a risk of personal injury.
20. Have your tool repaired by a qualified person
This electric tool is in accordance with the relevant
safety requirements. Repairs should only be carried
out by qualified persons using original spare parts,
otherwise this may result in considerable danger to
the user.
21. Guard against KICKBACK
A.
GRIP SAW FIRMLY: Hold the chain saw firmly
with both hands when the motor is running.
Keep a good firm grip on the saw with both
hands, the right hand on the rear handle, and the
left hand on the front handle.
B. Do not over reach.
C.
Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
D.
Do not let the nose of the guide bar contact a
log, branch, ground or other obstruction.
E.
Do not cut above shoulder height.
F.
Use devices, such as low-kickback chain, guide
bar nose guards, chain brakes and special guide
bars, which reduce the risks associated with
kickback.
G.
Use only replacement bars and chains
specified by the manufacturer or the equivalent.
H.
There are no other replacement components for
achieving kickback protection in accordance
with CSA Z62.3.
22. Power supply
Connect the chain saw to correct voltage; be sure
that the voltage supplied is the same as that specified
on the nameplate of the tool.
23. DO NOT operate a chain saw that is damaged,
improperly adjusted, or not completely and securely
assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops moving
when the trigger is released.
24. DO NOT attempt operations beyond your capacity or
experience.
25. DO NOT operate a chain saw with one hand! Serious
injury to the operator, helpers, or bystanders may
result from one-handed operation. A chain saw is
intended for two-handed use.
26. TO REDUCE potential for electric shock, do not
operate the saw on wet or slippery surfaces, or dur-
ing snow storms, rain storms, and other adverse
weather conditions.
27. Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil or grease.
28. DO NOT allow dirt, debris or sawdust to build up on
the motor or outside air vents.
29. Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and mainte-
nance instructions for the saw chain.
30. Cut at high motor speeds.
31. Operation of a chain saw should be restricted to
mature, properly instructed individuals.
32. Your chain saw is intended for occasional
homeowner use. It is not made for heavy continuous
use.
33. DO NOT FORCE a small saw to do a job requiring a
heavier duty unit.
34. Examine the electrical switches. Do not use the
chain saw if the switches do not properly turn on and
off. Do not attempt to make any repairs to the electric
switches. Take your saw to a Texas Authorized
Service Center.
35. Maintain extension cords Inspect the extension
cords periodically and replace if damaged. Only use
power cords that are suitably marked for outdoor use.
36. DO NOT operate your chain saw near or around
flammable liquids or gases, whether in or out of
doors. An explosion and/or fire may result.
37. All chain saw service, other than the items listed in
the user manual safety and maintenance
instructions, should be performed by competent
chain saw personnel. Do not attempt to repair it your-
self; there are no user serviceable parts inside.
38. NEVER REMOVE, modify or make inoperative any
safety device furnished with your unit. The CHAIN
BRAKE
®
/Hand Guard is a major safety feature. The
saw will not run when the CHAIN BRAKE
®
is tripped.
39. It is intended for infrequent use by homeowner’s, cot-
tagers and campers, and for such general applica-
tions such as clearing, pruning, cutting firewood, etc.
It is not intended for prolonged use. If the intended
use involves prolonged periods of operation, this may
cause circulatory problems in the user’s hands due to
vibration. It may be appropriate to use a saw having
an anti-vibration feature.
40. Safety clothing required by your safety organizations,
government regulations, or your employer should be
used; otherwise, snug fitting clothing, safety footwear,
and hand and ear protection should be worn.
41. When felling, keep at least 2 tree lengths between
yourself and your fellow workers.
42. Keep everyone, especially children and pets, away
from the area of operation. Never allow children to
operate the appliance. Turn off unit immediately if you
are approached.
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
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
you to lose control of the saw, which could
result in serious injury to the user. The fol-
lowing precautions should be followed to
minimize kickback.

TIONS (Fig. 2B)
A = Pull
B = Solid objects
C = Push
KICKBACK may occur when the NOSE or TIP of the guide
bar touches an object, or when wood closes in and pinch-
es the saw chain in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a lightning-fast
reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back
toward the operator.
PINCHING the saw chain along the BOTTOM of the guide
bar may PULL the saw forward, away from the operator.
PINCHING the saw chain along the TOP of the guide bar
may PUSH the guide bar rapidly back toward the opera-
tor.
Any of these reactions may cause you to lose control of
the saw, which could result in serious personal injury.
WARNING: RED Used to warn that an
unsafe procedure should not be performed.

WARNING: Kickback can lead to dangerous
loss of control of the chain saw and result in
serious or fatal injury to the saw operator or
to anyone standing close by. Always be alert
because rotational kickback and pinch kick-
back are major chain saw operational dan-
gers and the leading cause of most acci-
dents.
