your are right handed or left handed.  Keep

Ride Into Cutter
S  Position your left hand on the front handle-
bar so it is in a straight line with your right
hand  on  the  rear  handle  when  making
bucking cuts.  Never reverse right and left
hand positions for any type  of cutting.
S  Stand with your weight evenly balanced on
both feet.

Not a Low---Kickback Chain
S  Front Hand Guard, designed to reduce the
chance  of your  left  hand  contacting the
chain if your hand slips off the front handle-
bar.
S  Stand slightly to the left side of the saw to
keep your body from being in a direct  line
with the cutting chain.
S  Position of front and rear  handlebars, de-
signed with distance between handles and
“in-line” with each other.   The spread and
“in-line” position of the  hands provided by
this design work  together to give balance
and resistance  in  controlling the  pivot of
the saw back toward  the operator if kick-
back occurs.
S  Do not overreach. You could be drawn or
thrown off balance and lose control  of the
saw.
S  Do not cut above shoulder height. It is diffi-
cult  to  maintain   control  of  saw   above
shoulder height.
CHAIN BRAKE
KICKBACK SAFETY FEATURES
S  Chain Brake, designed to stop the chain in
the event of kickback.
WARNING:
The following features
are included on your saw to help reduce the
hazard of kickback; however, such features
will not  totally  eliminate this  danger.   As a
chain saw user, do not rely only on safety de-
WARNING:
WE DO  NOT REP-
RESENT  AND  YOU  SHOULD  NOT AS-
SUME  THAT  THE  CHAIN  BRAKE  WILL
PROTECT  YOU  IN  THE   EVENT  OF  A
KICKBACK.  Kickback is a lightning fast ac-
tion which throws the bar and rotating chain
back and up toward the operator.  Kickback
can be caused by allowing contact of the bar
tip in the danger  zone with any hard object.
Kickback can also be caused by pinching the
sawchain along the top of the guide bar. This
action may push  the guide bar rapidly back
toward the operator.  Either of  these events
may cause  you to  lose control  of  the saw
which could  result in serious injury  or even
death.  DO NOT RELY UPON ANY OF THE
DEVICES BUILT INTO  YOUR SAW.  YOU
SHOULD USE THE SAW PROPERLY AND
CAREFULLY TO  AVOID KICKBACK.   Re-
duced--kickback  guide bars  and  low--kick-
back  saw chains  reduce  the  chance  and
magnitude   of  kickback   and  are   recom-
mended. Your saw has a low kickback chain
and bar as original equipment. Repairs  on a
vices.
You must  follow  all  safety precau-
tions, instructions,  and maintenance  in this
manual  to  help avoid  kickback  and  other
forces which can result in serious  injury.
S  Reduced--Kickback Guide  Bar, designed
with a small  radius tip which reduces  the
size of  the kickback  danger zone on  the
bar tip.  A Reduced--Kickback  Guide  Bar
has been demonstrated to significantly re-
duce the number and seriousness of kick-
backs  when  tested  in  accordance  with
safety requirements for gasoline  powered
chain saws as set by ANSI B175.1.
