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
S
Operate the chain saw only in a well-venti-
lated outdoor area.
Do not operate  saw from a ladder or  in a
tree, unless you are specifically trained  to
do so.
PLAN AHEAD
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.
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  Stop the  engine  before  setting  the  saw
down.
S  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.
S
With the  engine stopped,  hand carry  the
chain saw with the muffler away from your
body, and the  guide bar and chain  to the

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.
S
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-
