SAFETY INFORMATION
Please read these instructions fully before operating or maintaining your machine
chainsaw. Keep bystanders
and animals out of the
work area.
■
DO NOT start cutting until
you have a clear work
area, secure footing, and a
planned retreat path from
falling trees or branches.
■
Keep all parts of your body
away from the saw’s chain
when the engine is running.
■
Before you start the
engine, make sure that the
chain is not in contact with
anything.
■
Carry the chainsaw with
the engine stopped, the
chain bar and saw chain
facing rearwards, and with
the exhaust away from
your body.
■
NEVER use a chainsaw
which is damaged,
incorrectly set, incomplete
or loosely assembled.
Make sure that the chain
rotation stops when the
chain brake is applied.
■
Shut off the engine before
setting the chainsaw down.
■
Use extreme caution when
cutting a small size bush
and saplings because
slender material may catch
in the saw chain and be
whipped towards you or
pull you off balance.
■
When cutting a limb that
is under tension, be alert
for spring back so that you
will not be struck when the
tension in the wood fibers
is released.
■
Keep the handles dry,
clean, and free of oil or fuel
mixture.
■
Operate the chainsaw only
in well-ventilated areas.
■
DO NOT operate a
chainsaw from in a tree
unless you have been
specifically trained to do
so.
