■ Loosenthefuelcapslowlytoreleasepressureandto
keepfuelfromescapingaroundthecap.
■ Tightenthefuelcapsecurelyafterrefuelling.

BASIC PRECAUTIONS IN THE CUTTING/WORK AREA
■ Donotstandonanyunstablesurfacewhileusingyour
chainsaw,thatincludesladders,scaffolds,trees,etc.
■ Donotstartcuttinguntilyouhaveaclearworkarea,
secure footing, and a planned retreat path from the
fallingtree.
■ Donotcutfromaladder,thisisextremelydangerous.
■ Use extreme caution when cutting small-size brush
andsaplingsbecauseslendermaterialmaycatchthe
sawchainandbewhippedtowardyouorpullyouoff
balance.
■ Whencuttingalimbundertension,bealertforspring-
backsothatyouwillnotbestruckwhenthetensionin
thewoodfibresisreleased.
■ Donotoperateachainsawinatreeunlessyouhave
beenspecificallytrainedtodoso.
■ Beware of the emission of exhaust gases, lubricant
mistandsawdust.
■ Thisproductisverynoisywhenoperating,toprevent
long term hearing damage, wear hearing protection
and keep other persons 15 m away from the work
area.Operatingsimilartoolsnearbyincreasesriskof
injury.Takefrequentbreaks.
■ Useofhearing protectionreducestheabilityto hear
warnings(shouts oralarms).The operatormust pay
extraattentiontowhatisgoingonintheworkarea.
■ Keepbystandersandanimalsoutoftheworkarea.Do
notallowotherpersonstobenearbyduringstartingor
cuttingwiththechainsaw.
NOTE:Thesizeoftheworkareadependsonthejobbeing
performedas well asthe sizeof thetree orwork piece
involved.Forexample,fellingatreerequiresalargerwork
areathanmakingothercuts,i.e.,buckingcutsetc.
PUSH AND PULL
Thereactionforceisalwaysoppositetothedirectionthe
chain is moving. Thus, the operator must be ready to
controlthepullwhencuttingonthebottomedgeofthebar
andthepushwhencuttingalongthetopedge.
NOTE:Yourchainsawhasbeenfullyfactorytested.Itis
normaltondsomeslightlubricantresidueonthesaw.
MAINTENANCE PRECAUTIONS
■ Neveroperateachainsawthatisdamaged,improperly
adjusted,orisnotcompletelyandsecurelyassembled.
■ Be sure that the saw chain stops moving when the
throttle control trigger is released. If the saw chain
moves at idling speed, the carburettor may need
adjusting.Referto“Operation-adjustingidlingspeed”
later in this manual. If the saw chain still moves
at idling speed after adjustment has been made,
contactaHomeliteservicedealerforadjustmentand
discontinueuseuntiltherepairismade.
■ Keepthehandlesdry,clean,andfreeoflubricantor
fuelmixture.
■ Follow the sharpening and maintenance instructions
forthesawchain.
■ Useonlythereplacementguidebarsandlowkickback
chainsspecifiedforyoursaw.Youmustnevermodify
or remove parts from this product or use parts not
recommendedbyHomelite.Thiswillincreasetherisk
ofinjury.
