,_ WARNING: Always disconnect
spark plug wire when making repairs ex-
cept for carburetor adjustments. Be-
cause a chain saw is a high-speed
wood-cutting tool, special precautions
must be observed to reduce the risk of
accidents. Careless or improper use of
this tool can cause serious injury.
PLAN AHEAD
• Restrict the use of your saw to adult
users who understand and can follow
safety rules, precautions, and operat-
ing instructions found in this manual.

• Wear protective gear. Always use
steel-toed safety footwear with non-
slip soles; snug-fitting clothing; safety
chaps; heavy-duty, non-slip gloves;
eye protection such as non-fogging,
vented goggles or face screen; an
approved safety hard hat; and sound
barriers (ear plugs or mufflers) to pro-
tect your hearing. Regular users
should have hearing checked regu-
larly 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 a minimum of 30 feet (10 me-
ters) away from the work area when
starting and using the saw.
• Do not handle or operate a chain saw
when you are fatigued, ill, or upset, 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 operating.
• Do not start cutting until you have a
clear work area, secure footing, and,
if you are felling trees, a planned re-
treat path.
OPERATE YOUR SAW SAFELY
• Do not operate a chain saw with one
hand. Serious injury to the operator,
helpers, bystanders or any combina-
tion of these persons may result from
one-handed operation. A chain saw
is intended for two-handed use.
• Operate the chain saw only in a well-
ventilated outdoor area.
• Do not operate saw from a ladder or
in a tree.
