Work Area Precautions
◾
Cut only wood or materials made from wood; do not cut sheet metal, plastics,
masonry, or non-wood building materials.
◾
Never allow children to operate the chain saw.
◾
Allow no person to use this chain saw who has not read this Operator's Manual or
received adequate instructions for the safe and proper use of this chain saw.
◾
Always work within calling distance of others in case help is needed.
◾
Watch out for obstacles.
◾
If you work in the tree: Use a fall protection rope to protect yourself.
◾
If you work in the tree: Secure the chainsaw with a rope tied to the carabiner to
prevent the saw from falling to ground.
◾
Do not cut above chest height, as a saw held higher is difficult to control against
kickback forces.
◾
Working near live electric cables can result in accidental contact with the chain
and damage the cables. This can result in serious or fatal injuries.
◾
Cut only when visibility and light are adequate for you to see clearly.
◾
Do not work in an easily combustible location.
