FOR SAFE OPERATION
All chain saw service, other than the items
listed in the Owner’s Manual, should be per-
formed by competent chain saw service
personnel. (E.g., if improper tools are used
to remove the flywheel, or if an improper
tool is used to hold the flywheel in order to
remove the clutch, structural damage to the
flywheel could occur which could subse-
quently cause the flywheel to disintegrate.)
Always shut off the engine before setting it
down.
Use extreme caution when cutting small size
brush and saplings because slender material
may catch the saw chain and be whipped
toward you or pull you off balance.
When cutting a limb that is under tension,
be alert for spring- back so that you will
not be struck when the tension in the wood
fibers are released.
Never cut in high wind, bad weather, when
visibility is poor or in very high or low tem-
peratures. Always check the tree for dead
branches which could fall during felling
operations.
Keep the handles dry, clean and free
of oil or fuel mixture.
FOR SAFE OPERATION
( 2 )
Operate the chain saw only in well ventilated
areas. Never start or run the engine inside
a sealed room or building. Exhaust fumes
contain dangerous carbon monoxide, and
can kill easily.
Do not operate the chain saw in a tree at
height unless specially trained to do so.
Guard against kickback. Kickback is the up-
ward motion of the guide bar which occurs
when the saw chain at the nose of the guide
bar contacts an object. Kickback can lead to
dangerous loss of control of the chain saw.
When transporting your chain saw, make
sure the appropriate guide bar scabbard is
in place.
Never touch the muffler guard, guide bar,
saw chain or nut with bare hands while the
engine is in operation or immediately after
shutting down the engine. Doing so could
result in serious burns because of high
temperature.
