and kickback forces of your saw without
losing control (see section on reactive
forces).
To reduce the risk of seri-
ous or fatal injury to the
operator or bystanders
from loss of control,
never use the saw with
one hand. It is more diffi-
cult for you to control
reactive forces and to
prevent the bar and chain
from skating or bouncing
along the limb or log.
Even for those compact
saws designed for use in
confined spaces, one-
handed operation is dan-
gerous because the
operator may lose
control.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of cut injuries, keep
hands and feet away from the cutting
attachment. Never touch a moving cut-
ting attachment 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. 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. Be
extremely cautious when working on
slopes or uneven ground.
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.
Warning!
Never work in a tree unless you have
received specific, professional training
for such work, are properly secured
(such as tackle and harness system or a
lift bucket), have both hands free for
operating the chain saw in a cramped
environment and have taken proper pre-
cautions to avoid injury from falling
limbs or branches.
The use of climbing aids, such as spikes
or climbing irons, also require special
training. Always secure the chain saw
with a rope (tie to hinged ring) and attach
