cutting edges are less likely to bind and are
easier to control.
H.
Use the power tool, accessories,
tool bits, etc. in accordance with
these instructions and in the manner
intended for the particular type of power
tool, taking into account the working
conditions and the work to be performed.
Using the power tool for operations different
from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
I.
Keep guards in place and in working
order.
J.
Use only replacement guide bars and
chains specified by the manufacturer.
Incorrect replacement guide bars and
chains may cause chain breakage and/or
kickback.
K.
Follow the manufacturer's sharpening
and maintenance instructions for the
saw chain. Decreasing the depth gauge
height can lead to increased kickback.

Chain Saw Safety
A.
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces only, because the saw chain
may contact hidden wiring or its own
cord. Saw chains contacting a live wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool
live and could give you an electric shock.
B.
Wear safety glasses, hearing protection,
and protective equipment for your head,
hands, legs, and feet. Wearing adequate
protective clothing reduces personal injury
by flying debris or accidental contact with
the saw chain.
C.
Cutting trees can be hazardous and
requires expertise. Do not use the chain
saw to fell large trees that have a diameter
greater than the length of the guide bar.
D.
Do not operate a chain saw in a tree.
Operating a chain saw while up in a tree
may result in personal injury.
E.
Always keep proper footing and operate
the chain saw only when standing on a
fixed, secure, and level surface. Slippery
or unstable surfaces such as ladders may
cause a loss of balance or control of the
chain saw.
F.
When cutting a limb that is under
tension, be alert for spring back. When
the tension in the wood fiber is released, the
spring loaded limb may strike you and/or
throw the chain saw out of control.
G.
Use extreme caution when cutting brush
and saplings. The slender material may
catch the saw chain and be whipped toward
you or pull you off balance.
H.
Carry the chain saw by the front handle
with the chain saw switched off and
away from your body. When transporting
or storing the chain saw, always use
the guide bar cover. Proper handling of
the chain saw reduces the likelihood of
accidental contact with the moving saw
chain.
I.
Follow the instructions for lubricating,
chain tensioning, and changing
accessories. Improperly tensioned or
lubricated chain may either break or
increase the chance for kickback.
J.
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from
oil and grease. Greasy, oily handles are
slippery, causing loss of control.
K.
Avoid kickback. Kickback may occur when
the nose or tip of the guide bar touches an
object, or when the wood pinches the saw
chain while you are cutting. Tip contact may
cause a sudden reverse reaction, kicking
the guide bar up and back toward you;
pinching the saw chain along the top of the
guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly
back toward you. Either of these reactions
may cause you to lose control of the saw,
which could result in a serious personal
injury. You can avoid kickback by taking
proper precautions as given below:
•
Use both hands whenever you
operate the chain saw. Maintain a
firm grip, with thumbs and fingers
encircling the chain saw handles,
with both hands on the saw, and with
your body and arm in position that
allows you to resist kickback forces.
You can control kickback forces if proper
precautions are taken. Do not let go of
the chain saw!
•
Do not overreach and do not cut
above shoulder height. This helps
prevent unintended tip contact and
enables better control of the chain saw
in unexpected situations.
5.
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a
qualified repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This ensures that the safety
of the power tool is maintained.
