CHAIN SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
● Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain when
the motor is operating. Before you start the chain saw, make
sure the saw chain is not contacting anything. A moment of
inattention while operating chain saws may cause entangle-
ment of your clothing or body with the saw chain.
● Always hold the chain saw with your right hand on the rear
handle and your left hand on the front handle. Holding the
chain saw with a reversed hand confi guration increases the
risk of personal injury and should never be done.
● Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only,
because the saw chain may contact hidden wiring or its
own cord. Saw chains contacting a "live" wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give
the operator an electric shock.
● Wear safety glasses and hearing protection. Further pro-
tective equipment for head, hands, legs and feet is recom-
mended. Adequate protective clothing will reduce personal
injury by fl ying debris or accidental contact with the saw
chain.
● Do not operate a chain saw in a tree. Operation of a chain
saw while up in a tree may result in personal injury.
● Always keep proper footing and operate the chain saw only
when standing on fi xed, secure and level surface. Slippery
or unstable surfaces such as ladders may cause a loss of
balance or control of the chain saw.
● When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert for spring
back. When the tension in the wood fi bres is released the
spring loaded limb may strike the operator and/or throw the
chain saw out of control.
● Use extreme caution when cutting brush and saplings. The
slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped
toward you or pull you off balance.
● Carry the chain saw by the front handle with the chain saw
switched off and away from your body. When transporting or
storing the chain saw, always fi t the guide bar cover. Proper
handling of the chain saw will reduce the likelihood of ac-
cidental contact with the moving saw chain.
● Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning and
changing accessories. Improperly tensioned or lubricated
chain may either break or increase the chance for kickback.
● Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing loss of control.
● Cut wood only. Don't use chain saw for purposes not intend-
ed. For example: do not use chain saw for cutting plastic,
masonry or non-wood building materials. Use of the chain
saw for operations different than intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
CAUSES AND OPERATOR PREVENTION OF
KICKBACK:
– Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar
touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches the
saw chain in the cut.
– Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden reverse reac-
tion, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the operator.
– Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may
push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator.
– Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of
the saw which could result in serious personal injury. Do not
rely exclusively upon the safety devices built into your saw. As
a chain saw user, you should take several steps to keep your
cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating
procedures or conditions and can be avoided by taking proper
precautions as given below:
● Maintain a fi rm grip, with thumbs and fi ngers encircling the
chain saw handles, with both hands on the saw and position
your body and arm to allow you to resist kickback forces.
Kickback forces can be controlled by the operator, if proper
precautions are taken. Do not let go of the chain saw.

● Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder height.
This helps prevent unintended tip contact and enables bet-
ter control of the chain saw in unexpected situations.
● Only use replacement bars and chains specifi ed by the
manufacturer. Incorrect replacement bars and chains may
cause chain breakage and/or kickback.
● Follow the manufacturer's sharpening and maintenance in-
structions for the saw chain. Decreasing the depth gauge
height can lead to increased kickback.
● Children and juveniles, with the exception of apprentices
older than 16 years and under supervision, may not oper-
ate the chain saw. The same applies for persons who do
not or do not suffi ciently know how to handle the chain saw.
The operating instructions should al ways be ready to hand.
Persons unfi t or tired must not operate the chain saw.
● Always ensure all handles and guards are fi tted when using
the machine. Never attempt to use an incomplete machine
or one fi tted with an unauthorized modifi cation.
● When working with the machine, always hold it fi rmly with
both hands and provide for a secure stance. The power tool
is guided more secure with both hands.
● Always wait until the machine has come to a complete stop
before placing it down. The tool insert can jam and lead to
loss of control over the power tool. It is recommended that
the fi rst time user should have practical instruction in the
use of the chainsaw and the protective equipment from an
experienced operator. The initial practice should be cutting
logs on a saw horse or cradle.
Products sold in GB only: Your product is fi tted with an BS
1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA ap-
proved to BS 1362). If the plug is not suitable for your socket
outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fi tted in its
place by an authorised customer service agent. The replace-
ment plug should have the same fuse rating as the original
plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible
shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains socket
elsewhere. Products sold in AUS and NZ only: Use a residual
current device (RCD) with a rated residual current of 30 mA
or less.
