us-ing a dry rag if any fuel spillage
occurs during refueling.
5. After refueling, screw the fuel
cap back tightly onto the fuel tank

TRANSPORTATION
1. When hand-carrying the product,
cover over the cutting part if nec-
essary, lift up the product and carry
it paying attention to the blade.
2. Never transport the product over
rough roads over long distances by
vehicle without removing all fuel from
the fuel tank. If doing so, fuel might
leak from the tank during transport.
3. When you finish cutting in one
location and wish to continue work
in another spot, turn off the engine.
KICKBACK SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS FOR CHAIN
SAW USERS
WARNING
Kickback may occur when the nose
or tip of the guide bar touches an
object, or when the wood closes
in and pinches the saw chain in
the cut. Tip contact in some cases
may cause a lightning fast reverse
reaction, kicking the guide bar up
and back towards the operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the
top of the guide bar may push the
guide bar rapidly back towards the
operator. Either of these reactions
may cause you to lose control of the
saw, which could result in serious
personal injury.
Do not rely exclusively on the safety
devices built into your saw. As a
chain saw user you should take
several steps to keep cutting jobs
free from accident or injury.
(1) With a basic understanding of
kickback you can reduce or eliminate
the element of surprise. Sudden
surprise contributes to accidents.
(2) Keep a good grip on the saw
with both hands, the right hand on
the rear handle, and the left hand on
the front handle, when the engine is
running. Use a firm grip with thumbs
and fingers encircling the chain
saw handles. A firm grip will help
you reduce kickback and maintain
control of the saw.
(3) Make certain that the area in which
you are cutting is free from obstruc-
tions. Do not let the nose of the guide
bar contact a log, branch, or any other
obstruction which could be hit while
you are operating the saw.
(4) Cut at high engine speeds.
(5) Follow the manufacturers
sharpening and maintenance
instructions for the saw chain.
(6) Only use replacement bars
and chains specified by the
manufacturer or the equivalent.
WARNING
Make sure the chain and sprocket
are correctly adjusted before
operating the pruner.
Never attempt chain adjustment
with the engine running!
Always make sure the cutting
attachment is properly installed and
firmly tightened before operation.
Never use a cracked or warped
guide bar: replace it with a
serviceable one and make sure it
fits properly.
If a saw blade should bind fast in a
cut, shut off the engine immediately.
Push the branch or tree to ease the
bind and free the blade.
