Owner`s Manual. Be sure
that anyone using your
saw reads and
understands the
information contained in this manual.
All safety precautions that are generally
observed when working with an axe or a
hand saw also apply to the operation of
chainsaws. However, because a
chainsaw is a high-speed, fast-cutting
power tool, special safety precautions
must be observed to reduce the risk of
personal injury.
These safety precautions and warnings
apply to the use of all STIHL chainsaws.
Different models may have different
parts and controls. See the appropriate
section of your Owner's Manual for a
description of the controls and function
of the parts of your model saw.
!
Warning!
Prolonged use of chainsaws (or other
machines) exposing the operator to
vibrations may produce whitefinger
disease (Raynaud's phenomenon) or
carpal tunnel syndrome.
