SAFETY NOTICE: Exposure to vibra-
tions through prolonged use of gaso-
line powered hand tools could cause
blood vessel or nerve damage in the
fingers, hands, and oints 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-vi-
bration system does not guarantee the
avoidance of these problems. Users
who operate power tools on a continu-
al and regular basis must closely
monitor their physical condition and
the condition of this tool.
CHAIN BRAKE: If this saw is to be
used for commercial logging, a chain
brake is required and shall not be re-
moved or otherwise disabled to com-
ply with Federal OSHA Regulations for

Jersey, Oregon, and Washington re-
quire by law that many internal com-
bustion engines be equipped with a
spark arresting screen. If you operate

responsible for maintaining the operat-
ing condition of these parts. Failure to
do so is a violation of the law. Refer to
Customer Responsibilities chart in the
