SAFETY NOTICE: Exposure to vibra-
tions through prolonged use of gasoline
powered hand tools could cause blood
vessel or nerve damage in the fingers,
hands, and joints of people prone to
circulation disorders or abnormal swell-
ing. 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-
brafion system 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.
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 comply
with Federal OSHA Regulations for
Commercial Logging.
SPARK ARRESTING SCREEN: Your
saw is equipped with a temperature lim-
iting muffler and spark arresting screen
which meets the requirements of Califor-
nia Codes 4442 and 4443. All U.S. for-
est land and the states of California, Ida-
ho, Maine, Minnesota, New Jersey,
Oregon, and Washington require by law
that many internal combustion engines
be equipped with a spark arresting
screen. If you operate a chain saw in a
state or locale where such regulations
exist, you are legally responsible for
maintaining the operating condition of
these parts. Failure to do so is a viola-
tion of the law. Refer to Customer Re-
sponsibilities chart in the MAINTENANCE
section.
STANDARDS: This chain saw is listed
by Underwriters Laboratedes, Inc. in ac-
cordance with American National Stan-
dards for Gasoline-Powered Chain
