S Carefully plan your sawing operation in ad-
vance. Donot start cutting until you have a
clear work area, secure footing, and, if you
are felling trees, a planned retreat path.
SAFETY RULES
WARNING:
Always
disconnect
OPERATE YOUR SAW SAFELY
spark plug wire and place wire where it can-
not contact spark plug to prevent accidental
starting when setting up, transporting, ad-
justing or making repairs except carburetor
adjustments.
S
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 opera-
tion.
A
chain
saw
is
intended
for
two-handed use.
Because a chain saw is a high-speed wood-
cutting tool, special safety precautions must
be observed to reduce the risk of accidents.
Careless or improper use of this tool can
cause serious injury.
S Operate the chain saw only in a well-venti-
lated outdoor area.
S Do not operate saw from a ladder or in a
tree.
S Make sure the chain will not make contact
with any object while starting the engine.
Never try to start the saw when the guide
bar is in a cut.
PLAN AHEAD
S Read this manual carefully until you com-
pletely understand and can follow all safe-
ty rules, precautions, and operating in-
structions before attempting to use the
unit.
S
Do not put pressure on the saw at the end
of the cut. Applying pressure can cause
you to lose control when the cut is com-
pleted.
S Restrict the use of your saw to adult users
who understand and can follow safety
rules, precautions, and operating instruc-
tions found in this manual.
S
S
Stop the engine before setting the saw
down.
Do not operate a chain saw that is dam-
aged, improperly adjusted, or not com-
pletely and securely assembled. Always
replace bar, chain, hand guard, or chain
brake immediately if it becomes damaged,
broken or is otherwise removed.

MAINTAIN YOUR SAW IN GOOD
WORKING ORDER
S
Have all chain saw service performed by a
qualified service dealer with the exception
of the items listed in the maintenance sec-
tion of this manual. For example, if improp-
er tools are used to remove or hold the fly-
wheel when servicing the clutch, structural
damage to the flywheel can occur and
cause the flywheel to burst.
Safety
Safety Chaps
Shoes
S Wear protective gear. Always use steel-
toed safety footwear with non-slip soles;
snug-fitting clothing; heavy-duty, non-slip
gloves; eye protection such as non-fog-
ging, vented goggles or face screen; an
approved safety hard hat; and sound barri-
ers (ear plugs or mufflers) to protect your
hearing. Regular users should have hear-
ing checked regularly as chain saw noise
can damage hearing. Secure hair above
shoulder length.
S Make certain the saw chain stops moving
when the throttle trigger is released. For
correction, refer to CARBURETOR AD-
JUSTMENTS.
S Never modify your saw in any way.
S Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil
or fuel mixture.
S Keep fuel and oil caps, screws, and fas-
teners securely tightened.
S Keep all parts of your body away from the
chain when the engine is running.
S Use only Poulan accessories and replace-
ment parts as recommended.
S Keep children, bystanders, and animals a
minimum of 30 feet (10 meters) away from
the work area. Do not allow other people
or animals to be near the chain saw when
starting or operating the chain saw.
HANDLE FUEL WITH CAUTION
S Do not smoke while handling fuel or while
operating the saw.
S Eliminate all sources of sparks or flame in
the areas where fuel is mixed or poured.
There should be no smoking, open flames,
or workthat could cause sparks. Allow en-
gine to cool before refueling.
S 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. Chain saw work is
strenuous. If you have any condition that
might be aggravated by strenuous work,
check with your doctor before operating a
chain saw.
S Mix and pour fuel in an outdoor area on
bare ground; store fuel in a cool, dry, well
ventilated place; and use an approved,
marked container for all fuel purposes.
Wipe up all fuel spills before starting saw.
