Always store the metal elements in cool and dry place, never use rusted chain

SPECIAL SAFETY WARNINGS FOR THE TOOL
Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain when the chain saw is
operating.
Before you start the chain saw, make sure the saw chain is not contacting
anything.
When you are working with a chainsaw, a single moment of carelessness is all
it takes for clothing or parts of your body to get caught by the chainsaw.
Always hold the chain saw with your right hand on the rear handle and
your left hand on the front handle. Holding the chain saw with a reversed
hand configuration increases the risk of personal injury and should never be
done.
Wear safety glasses and hearing protection. Further protective
equipment for head, hands, legs and feet is recommended. Adequate
protective clothing will reduce personal injury by flying debris or accidental
contact with the saw chain.
Do not operate a chain saw in a tree. Operation of a chain saw while up in a
tree may result in personal injury.
Always keep proper footing and operate the chain saw only when
standing on fixed, secure and level surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces
such as ladders may cause a loss of balance or control of the chain saw.
When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert for spring back. When
the tension in the wood fibres is released the spring loaded limb may strike
the operator and/or throw the chain saw out of control.
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.
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 fit the guide bar cover. Proper handling of the chain saw will reduce
the likelihood of accidental contact with the moving saw chain.
Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning and changing
accessories.
Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may either break or increase the
chance for kickback.
