Additional Warnings - EGO CS1200 Operator's Manual

ADDITIONAL WARNINGS

◾
With a basic understanding of
kickback (Fig. 3 – 5), you can
reduce or eliminate the element
of surprise. Sudden surprise
contributes to accidents.
◾
Make sure that the area in which
you are cutting is free from
obstructions. Do not let the nose of
the guide bar contact a log, branch,
fence, or any other obstruction that
could be hit while you are operating
the saw.
◾
Inspect the work piece for nails,
wire, or other foreign objects prior
to cutting.
◾
Keep proper footing and balance
at all times.
◾
A chain saw is intended for two
handed use. Serious injury to the
operator, helpers, and/or bystanders
can result from one-handed
operation (Fig. 3).
◾
Always cut with the unit running
at full speed. Fully squeeze the
switch trigger and maintain cutting
speed.
