If you use an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the
current your electric saw will draw. An
improper gauged extension cord will
cause a drop in wire voltage resulting in
loss of power and overheating. Use only
extension cords having an electrical
rating not less than the rating of the
product.
The following table shows the correct
size to use depending on cord length
and machine label ampere rating.

cords for 120 Volt appliances:

To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other).This plug
will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install
the proper outlet. Do not change the
plug in any way.

Warning!
Position the electric cable so that it will
not be damaged when using the electric
saw. Always keep the electric cable
behind the operator and away from the
bar and chain. Always be sure that your
cable does not become entangled with
obstacles or objects. Damaged cables
may cause electrocution. If you take a
break at your work, always disconnect

Warning !
Be sure that the guide bar and chain are
clear of you and all other obstructions
and objects, including the ground. If the
bar nose near the upper quadrant
touches an object, it may cause
kickback to occur (see section on
reactive forces). Never attempt to start
the chainsaw when the guide bar is in a
cut or kerf.

Warning!
Use of this product (including sharpen-
ing the saw chain) can generate dust,
mists and fumes containing chemicals
known to cause respiratory disease,
cancer, birth defects, or other
reproductive harm. If you are unfamiliar
with the risks associated with the
particular dust, mist or fume at issue,
consult your employer, governmental
agencies such as OSHA and NIOSH
and other sources on hazardous
materials. California and some other
authorities, for instance, have published
lists of substances known to cause
cancer, reproductive toxicity, etc. Control
dust (such as sawdust), mists (such as
oil mist from chain lubrication) and
fumes at the source where possible.
