contain cut resistant inserts. Wear non-slip safety
footwear. Wear non-slip heavy duty gloves to improve
your grip and to protect your hands. Do not wear
jewelry, short pants, sandals, or go barefoot. Do not
wear loose fitting clothing, which could be drawn into
the motor or catch the chain or underbrush. Secure
hair so it is above shoulder level. Wear hearing and
head protection.
• Heavy protective clothing may increase operator
fatigue, which could lead to heat stroke. During
weather that is hot and humid, heavy work should be
scheduled for early morning or late afternoon hours
when temperatures are cooler.
• Always wear eye protection with side shields, as
well as head and hearing protection when operat-
ing this equipment.
• Always be aware of what you are doing when using
the chain saw. Use common sense. Do not oper-
ate the chain saw when you are tired, ill, or under the
influence of alcohol, drugs, or medication.
• Keep all parts of your body away from the saw
chain when the unit is running.
• Never let anyone use your chain saw who has not
received adequate instructions in its proper use.
This applies to rentals as well as privately owned saws.
• Before you start the unit, make sure the saw chain
is not contacting any object.
• Stop the chain saw before setting it down.
• Maintain the unit with care. Keep the cutting edge
sharp and clean for best performance and to reduce
the risk of injury. Follow instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories.
• Do not operate a chain saw with one hand! Use a
firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the chain
saw handles. Serious injury to the operator, helpers,
bystanders, or any combination of these persons
may result from one-handed operation. A chain saw
is intended for two-handed use.
• Do not operate a chain saw that is damaged, im-
properly adjusted, or not completely and securely
assembled. Chain should slow to a stop when the
switch trigger is released. If the chain continues to turn
after the switch trigger has been released, have the
unit serviced by an authorized service center.
• Always maintain a proper stance.
• Do not adapt your powerhead to a bow guide or
use it to power any attachments or devices not
listed for the saw.
• Do not cut vines and/or small underbrush.
• Do not operate a chain saw in a tree, on a ladder,
rooftop, scaffold, or other unstable support; this
is extremely dangerous.
NOTE: The size of the work area depends on the job
being performed as well as the size tree or work piece
involved. For example, felling a tree requires a larger
work area than making bucking cuts.

• Do not force the chain saw. The job can be per-
formed better and safer at the rate for which it was
intended.
• Always use the right product for your application.
The chain saw should be used for cutting wood only.
Never use the chain saw to cut plastic, masonry or
non-wood building materials.
• Store chain saw when not in use. Chain saw should
be stored in a dry and high or locked area out of the
reach of children. When storing chain saw place the
cover on the bar and chain and store the chain saw
in carrying case.
• Battery operated units do not have to be plugged
into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always
in operating condition. Be aware of possible hazards
even when unit is not operating.
• Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently
and use them to instruct others who may use this
product. If you loan someone this product, loan them
these instructions also.
• After each use, clean the machine with a soft dry
cloth. Remove any chips, dirt and debris in the
battery bay.
• Always use common sense and be cautious when
using tools. It is not possible to anticipate every
situation that could result in a dangerous outcome.
Do not use this tool if you do not understand these
operating instructions or you feel the work is beyond
your capability; contact Milwaukee Tool or a trained
professional for additional information or training.
• Follow the manufacturer's sharpening and main-
tenance instructions for the saw chain. Decreas-
ing the depth gauge height can lead to increased
kickback.
• Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and
grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing
loss of control.
• Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry
important information. If unreadable or missing, contact
a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free replacement.
