    NOTE: Exposure to vibrations through prolonged use of gasoline powered hand tools could cause blood vessel or nerve damage in the fingers, hands, and wrists of people prone to circulation disorders or abnormal swellings. Prolonged use in cold weather has been linked to blood vessel damage in otherwise healthy people.
  • Page 8 • Always use caution when handling fuel. Move the chain saw at least 10 feet (3m) from the fueling point before starting the engine. • Do not operate a chain saw with one hand! Serious injury to the operator, helpers, by- standers, or any combination of these per- sons may result from one-handed operation.
  • Page 9: Your Saw's Safety Devices

    MAINTENANCE • Never operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly adjusted, or is not completely and securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops moving when the throttle control trigger is released. • All chain saw service, other than items in the Owner's Manual maintenance instructions, should be performed by competent chain saw service personnel.
  • Page 10: Installing Safe-T-Tip Nose Guard

    FRONT HAND GUARD Your saw has a factory-installed front hand guard to prevent contact with the chain if your hand slips off the front handle. Do not remove the front hand guard. Maintain the guard in good condi- tion and do not use the guard as a hand grip. Replace it if damaged or broken.

    3. Cut a notch (C) about 1/3 the diameter of the trunk in the side of the tree. Make the cuts of the notch so they intersect at a right angle to the line of fall . See Illustration 5. This notch should be cleaned out to leave a straight line.
