WARNING:
Computed Kickback
Angle (CKA) listed on your saw and listed
in the following CKA Table represents the
angle of kickback your bar and chain
combinations will have when tested in ac-
cordance with CSA and ANSI standards.
Computed angles represented in the CKA
column indicate total energy and angle
associated without a chain brake. When
purchasing replacements, considerations
should be given to the lower CKA values.
In all cases, lower CKA values represent a
safer operating environment for the user.

SAFETY NOTICE: Exposure to vibra-
tions through prolonged use of hand
tools could cause blood vessel or nerve
damage in the fingers, hands, and joints
of people prone to circulation disorders
or abnormal swelling. Prolonged use in
cold weather has been linked to blood
vessel damage in otherwise healthy
people. If symptoms occur such as
numbness, pain, loss of strength,
change in skin color or texture, or loss of
feeling in the fingers, hands, or joints,
discontinue the use of this tool and seek
medical attention. An anti-vibration sys-
tem does not guarantee the avoidance
of these problems. Users who operate
power tools on a continual and regular
basis must closely monitor their physical
condition and the condition of this tool.
DOUBLE INSULATION
CONSTRUCTION
This unit is double insulated to help pro-
tect against electric shock. Double in-
sulation construction consists of two
separate "layers" of electrical insulation
instead of grounding.
Tools built with this insulation system are
not intended to be grounded. No
grounding means is provided on this
unit, nor should a means of grounding
be added to this unit.
Safety precautions must be observed
when operating any electrical tool. The
lightning fast
guide bar up and back toward the oper-
ator.
S Pinching the saw chain along the tip of
the guide bar may push the guide bar
rapidly back towards the operator.
S Either of these reactions may cause you
to lose control of the saw which could re-
sult in serious injury. Do not rely exclu-
sively upon safety devices built into your
saw.
The following guide bar and chain com-
binations meet kickback requirements of
CSA Z62.1 & Z62.3 and ANSI B175.1
when used on saws listed in this manual.
Use of bar and chain combinations other
than those listed is not recommended and
may not meet the CKA requirements per
standard.

double insulation system only provides
added protection against injury resulting
from an internal electrical insulation
failure.
WARNING:
this unit, including housing, switch, motor,
etc., must be diagnosed and repaired by
qualified service personnel. Replacement
parts for a double insulated appliance
must be identical to the parts they replace.
A double insulated appliance is marked
with the words "double insulation" or
"double insulated". The symbol
(square within a square) may also be
marked on the appliance. Failure to have
the unit repaired by authorized service
personnel can cause the double insula-
tion construction to become ineffective
and result in serious injury.
