WARNING
To reduce the risk of cut injuries, keep
hands and feet away from the cutting
tool. Never touch a moving cutting tool
with your hand or any other part of your
body.
WARNING
Keep proper footing and balance at all
times. Special care must be taken in
slippery conditions (wet ground, snow)
and in difficult, overgrown terrain. Be
extremely cautious when working on
slopes or uneven ground. Watch for
hidden obstacles such as tree stumps,
roots, rocks, holes and ditches to avoid
stumbling. There is increased danger of
slipping on freshly debarked logs. For
better footing, clear away fallen
branches, scrub and cuttings. Use
extreme caution when cutting small-size
brush, branches and saplings because
slender material may catch the saw
chain and be whipped toward you or pull
you off balance.
WARNING
Take extreme care in wet and freezing
weather (rain, snow, ice). Put off the
work when the weather is windy, stormy
or rainfall is heavy.

WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury from loss of
control, never work on a ladder or any
other insecure support. Never hold the
machine above shoulder height. Do not
overreach.
Position the chain saw in such a way
that your body is clear of the cutting
attachment whenever the engine is
running. Stand to the left of cut while
bucking.
Never put pressure on the chain saw
when reaching the end of a cut. The
pressure may cause the bar and rotating
saw chain to pop out of the cut or kerf, go
out of control and strike the operator or
some other object. If the rotating saw
chain strikes some other object, a
reactive force may cause the moving
saw chain to strike the operator.
STIHL recommends that first-time users
should cut logs on a sawhorse – see
"Cutting small logs."
Working Conditions
Operate and start your chain saw only
outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
Operate it under good visibility and
daylight conditions only. Work carefully.
WARNING
Your chain saw is a one-person
machine. Do not allow other persons in
the general work area, even when
starting. Stop the engine immediately if
you are approached.
WARNING
Even though bystanders should be kept
away from the running chain saw, never
work alone. Keep within calling distance
of others in case help is needed.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury to bystanders
and damage to property, never let your
chain saw run unattended. When it is not
in use (e. g. during a work break), shut it
off and make sure that unauthorized
persons do not use it.
