Safety Precautions
The use of any chainsaw
may be hazardous. The
saw chain has many
sharp cutters. If the
cutters contact your flesh,
they will cut you, even if
the chain is not moving. At full throttle,
the chain speed can reach 45 mph
(20 m/s). It is important that you read,
fully understand and observe the
following safety precautions and
warnings. Read the Owner's Manual
and the Safety Precautions periodically.
Pay special attention to the section on
reactive forces.
!
Warning!
Reactive forces, including kickback, can
be dangerous. Careless or improper use
of any chainsaw may cause serious or
fatal injury.
All safety precautions that are generally
observed when working with an axe or a
hand saw also apply to the operation of
chainsaws. However, because a
chainsaw is a high-speed, fast-cutting
power tool, special safety precautions
must be observed to reduce the risk of
personal injury.
MS 440, MS 440 W, MS 440 C
Have your STIHL dealer show you how
to operate your chainsaw. Observe all
applicable local safety regulations,
standards and ordinances.
!
Warning!
Minors should never be allowed to use a
chainsaw. Bystanders, especially
children, and animals should not be
allowed in the area where a chainsaw is
in use. Never let the saw run
unattended. Store it in a locked place
away from children and empty the fuel
tank before storing for longer than a few
days.
Do not lend or rent your
chainsaw without the
Owner`s Manual. Be sure
that anyone using your
saw reads and
understands the
information contained in this manual.
These safety precautions and warnings
apply to the use of all STIHL chainsaws.
Different models may have different
parts and controls. See the appropriate
section of your Owner's Manual for a
description of the controls and function
of the parts of your model saw.

THE OPERATOR
Physical Condition
You must be in good physical condition
and mental health and not under the
influence of any substance (drugs,
alcohol) which might impair vision,
dexterity or judgement.
Do not operate a chainsaw when you
are fatigued. Be alert - If you get tired
while operating your chainsaw, take a
break. Tiredness may result in loss of
control. Working with any chainsaw can
be strenuous. If you have any condition
that might be aggravated by strenuous
work, check with your doctor before
operating a chainsaw.
!
Warning!
Prolonged use of chainsaws (or other
machines) exposing the operator to
vibrations may produce whitefinger
disease (Raynaud's phenomenon) or
carpal tunnel syndrome.
