manual abstract
Use common sense. Do not operate the chain saw when you are tired. Keep all parts of your body away from the saw chain when the motor is operating. Before you start the saw, make sure the saw chain is not contacting anything. • Disconnect the chain saw when not in use, before servicing, and when changing accessories and attachments such as saw chain and guard. • Check damaged parts. Before further use of the chain saw, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center, unless otherwise indicated in this instruction manual. RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION •Use extreme caution when cutting small sized brush and sapling, as slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance. Do not operate a chain saw in a tree unless you are specifically trained to do so. When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for spring back so that you will not be struck when the tension in the wood fibers is released. Do not expose the chain saw to rain. Do not use the chain saw in damp or wet locations. Do not use the chain saw in the presence of flammable liquids or gases. • All chain saw service, other than the items listed in the user manual safety and maintenance instructions, should be performed by competent chain saw personnel. Do not attempt to repair it yourself; there are no user serviceable parts inside. • When not in use, chain saws should be stored out of the reach of children, in a dry, high or locked-up place. When storing saw, use a scabbard or carrying case. • The chain saw will do a better and safer job when used at the rate for which it was intended. • Use the right tool. Cut wood only. Do not use the chain saw for purposes for which it was not intended. For example, do not use the chain saw for cutting plastic, masonry, or non-building materials. • Use devices, such as low-kickback chain, guide bar nose guards, chain brakes and special guide bars, which reduce the risks associated with kickback. • There are no other replacement components for achieving kickback protection in accordance with CSA Z62.3. • Do not operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly adjusted, or not completely and securely assembled.
