Save all warnings and instruc-
tions for future reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated
(cordless) power tool.
General chain saw safety warnings
1. 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. A moment of
inattention while operating chain saws may cause
entanglement of your clothing or body with the
saw chain.
2. 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


3. Hold the chain saw by insulated gripping sur-
faces only, because the saw chain may contact
hidden wiring. Saw chains contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the chain
saw "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
4. Wear eye protection. Further protective equip-
ment for hearing, head, hands, legs and feet is
recommended. Adequate protective equipment

accidental contact with the saw chain.
5. Do not operate a chain saw in a tree, on a lad-
der, from a rooftop, or any unstable support.
Operation of a chain saw in this manner could

and level surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces
may cause a loss of balance or control of the
chain saw.
7. When cutting a limb that is under tension, be
alert for spring back. When the tension in the

may strike the operator and/or throw the chain
saw out of control.
8. Use extreme caution when cutting brush and
saplings. The slender material may catch the saw

body. When transporting or storing the chain
 Proper
handling of the chain saw will reduce the likelihood
of accidental contact with the moving saw chain.
10. Follow instructions for lubricating, chain
tensioning and changing the bar and chain.
Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may
either break or increase the chance for kickback.
11. Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for pur-
poses not intended. For example: do not use
chain saw for cutting metal, plastic, masonry
or non-wood building materials. Use of the

could result in a hazardous situation.
12. Do not attempt to fell a tree until you have an
understanding of the risks and how to avoid
them.
bystanders while felling a tree.
13. Causes and operator prevention of kickback:
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the

closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden
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

Kickback is the result of chain saw misuse and/or
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and
can be avoided by taking proper precautions as
given below:

with both hands on the saw and position
your body and arm to allow you to resist
kickback forces. Kickback forces can be con-
trolled by the operator, 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 unin-
tended tip contact and enables better control
of the chain saw in unexpected situations.
Only use replacement guide bars and saw

Incorrect replacement guide bars and saw
chains may cause chain breakage and/or
kickback.
Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening
and maintenance instructions for the saw
chain. Decreasing the depth gauge height
can lead to increased kickback.
