► When transporting the saw by hand, hold it by the control
handle with the guide bar pointing backwards, opposite
the direction in which you are walking.

The chainsaw can also be carried by attaching the ring (1) to
your waist belt or a rope.
Your saw comes standard with a chain scabbard that
matches the cutting attachment. If you use guide bars of
different lengths on the saw, the length of the chain
scabbard must be matched to the guide bar to reduce the
risk of injury. It should cover the full length of the guide bar.
