 Wear snug-fitting clothing. Always wear heavy
long pants, boots, and gloves. Do not wear
jewelry, short pants, sandals, or go barefoot.
Do not wear loose fitting clothing, which could
be drawn into the engine or catch the chain
or underbrush. Wear overalls, jeans, or chaps
made of cut-resistant material or ones that
contain cut-resistant inserts. Secure hair so that
it is above shoulder level.
 Wear non-slip safety footwear and heavy-
duty gloves to improve your grip and to protect
your hands.
 Wear eye protection with side shields marked
to comply with ANSI Z87.1, along with hear-
ing and head protection, when operating this
equipment.
 Keep bystanders and animals out of the work
area. Do not allow other persons to be nearby
during starting or cutting with the chain saw.
NOTE: The size of the work area depends on the
job being performed as well as the size tree or
workpiece involved. For example, felling a tree
requires a larger work area than making other
cuts (i.e., bucking cuts, etc.).
 Keep SAFE-T-TIP
™
properly mounted on the guide bar to prevent
rotational kickback.
 Follow the sharpening and maintenance
instructions for the saw chain.
 Never operate a chain saw that is damaged,
improperly adjusted, or is not completely
and securely assembled. Be sure that the saw
chain stops moving when the throttle control
trigger is released. If the saw chain moves at
idle speed, the carburetor may need adjusting.
Refer to Adjusting the Carburetor in the Main-
tenance section of this manual. If the saw chain
still moves at idle speed after adjustment has
been made, contact a qualified service center
for adjustment and discontinue use until the
repair is made.

by homeowners and other occasional users
for general applications such as clearing, prun-

 Wipe spilled fuel from the unit. Move 30 feet
away from refueling site before starting engine.

any circumstances.
KICKBACK
 Kickback is a dangerous reaction that can
lead to serious injury. Do not rely only on the
safety devices provided with the saw. As a
chain saw user, you must take special safety
precautions to help keep your cutting jobs free
from accident or injury. See the General Safety
Rules and Operation sections of this manual
for added information on kickback and how to
avoid serious personal injury.

chain unless it has been designated as meet-
ing the kickback performance requirements in
