other object. If the rotating chain strikes
some other object, a reactive force may
cause the moving chain to strike the
operator.
Working Conditions
Operate and start your power tool only
outdoors in a well-ventilated area.
Operate it under good visibility and
daylight conditions only. Work carefully.
Warning!
Your chain saw is a one-person
machine. Do not allow other persons in
the general work area, even when start-
ing. They should stand well clear of the
branches being cut. Stop the engine
immediately if you are approached.
Warning!
Even though bystanders should be kept
away from the running saw, never work
alone. Keep within calling distance of
others in case help is needed.
Warning!
To reduce the risk of injury to bystand-
ers and damage to property, never let
your power tool run unattended. When it
is not in use (e. g. during a work break),
shut it off and make sure that unauthor-
ized persons do not use it.

Warning!
As soon as the engine is
running, this product
generates toxic exhaust
fumes containing chemi-
cals, such as unburned
hydrocarbons (including
benzene) and carbon monoxide, that
are known to cause respiratory prob-
lems, cancer, birth defects, or other
reproductive harm. Some of the gases
(e. g. carbon monoxide) may be color-
less and odorless. To reduce the risk of
serious or fatal injury/illness from inhal-
ing toxic fumes, never run the machine
indoors or in poorly ventilated locations.
If exhaust fumes become concentrated
due to insufficient ventilation, clear
obstructions from work area to permit
proper ventilation before proceeding
and/or take frequent breaks to allow
fumes to dissipate before they become
concentrated.
Warning!
Operate your chain saw so that it pro-
duces a minimum of noise and
emissions – do not run engine unneces-
sarily and accelerate the engine only for
cutting.
Warning!
Inhalation of certain dusts, especially
organic dusts such as mold or pollen,
can cause susceptible persons to have
an allergic or asthmatic reaction. Sub-
stantial or repeated inhalation of dust
and other airborne contaminants, in par-
ticular those with a smaller particle size,
may cause respiratory or other ill-
nesses. This includes wood dust,
especially from hardwoods, but also
from some softwoods such as Western
Red Cedar. Control dust at the source
where possible. Use good work prac-
tices, such as always cutting with a
properly sharpened chain (which pro-
duces wood chips rather than fine dust)
and operating the unit so that the wind
or operating process directs any dust
raised by the power tool away from the
operator. Follow the recommendations
of EPA/OSHA/NIOSH and occupational
and trade associations with respect to
dust ("particulate matter"). When the
inhalation of dust cannot be substan-
tially controlled, i.e., kept at or near the
ambient (background) level, the opera-
tor and any bystanders should wear a
respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA
for the type of dust encountered.
