f. Avoid cutting above shoulder height.
g. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for sharpening and
maintenance of the saw chain.
13. When boring with the chain saw, the initial cut should be introduced
with the lower part of the nose (tip) until the hole is sufficiently large so
as to introduce the entire nose (tip) of the guide bar. This technique
should reduce the danger of kickback.
14. A chain saw is intended for two-handed use. Serious injury to the
operator, helpers and/or bystanders may result from one-handed
operation.
a. Allow your chain saw to cool before refueling, and do not
smoke while refueling.
b. Do not allow other persons or animals close to running chain
saw or close to where a tree is being felled.
c. Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and
saplings because slender material may catch the saw chain
and be whipped toward you.
d. When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert for spring-
back.
Correct Use Of Chain Brake
CHAIN BRAKE OPERATION
• Set the lever in the unlocked
position before starting to cut.
• If the brake is tripped by kickback
reaction, the chain will stop
immediately. Release the throttle to
avoid possible damage to the
engine or clutch.
• Do not attempt to operate the engine with the brake locked.
