• Wear protective gear. Always use
steel-toed safety footwear with non-
slip soles; snug-fitting clothing;
heavy-duty, non-slip gloves; eye pro-
tection such as non-fogging, vented
goggles or face screen; an approved
safety hard hat; and sound barriers
(ear plugs or mufflers) to protect your
hearing. Regular users should have
hearing checked regularly as chain
saw noise can damage hearing.
• Secure hair above shoulder length.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry;
they can get caught in moving parts.
• Keep all parts of your body away
from the chain when the engine is
running.
• Keep children, bystanders, and ani-
mals at least 30 feet (10 meters)
away from the work area when start-
ing and using the saw.
• Do not handle or operate a chain
saw when you are fatigued, ill, or up-
set, or if you have taken alcohol,
drugs, or medication. You must be in
good physical condition and mentally
alert. If you have any condition that
might be aggravated by strenuous
work, check with doctor before oper-
ating.
• Do not start cutting until you have a
clear work area, secure footing, and
especially if you are felling a tree, a
retreat path.
