 Do not start cutting until you have a clear work
area, secure footing, and a planned retreat
path from the falling tree. Cluttered areas invite
accidents.
 Keep ALL children, bystanders, visitors, and
animals out of the work area while starting or
cutting with the chain saw. Do not let visitors
contact chain saw or extension cord.
 Do not operate chain saw in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases, or dust. Chain saws create
sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
 WARNING: Use outdoor extension cords
marked SW-A, SOW-A, STW-A, STOW-A,
SJW-A, SJTW-A, or SJTOW-A. These cords
are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk
of electric shock.
 Polarized Plugs. To reduce the risk of electric
shock, this tool has a polarized plug (one blade
is wider than the other). This plug will fit in a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does
not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician
to install the proper outlet. Do not change the
plug in any way.
 Make sure your extension cord is in good condi-
tion. When using an extension cord, be sure to
use one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. A wire gauge size (A.W.G.)
of at least 14 is recommended for an extension
cord 50 feet or less in length. A cord exceeding
100 feet is not recommended. If in doubt, use
the next heavier gauge. The smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the cord. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting
in loss of power and overheating.
 Inspect extension cords periodically and, if
damaged, have repaired by a licensed electri-
cian. Constantly stay aware of cord location.
Following this rule will reduce the risk of electric
shock or fire.
 Dress Properly - Wear snug fitting clothing.
Always wear heavy, long pants, long sleeves,
overalls, jeans or chaps made of cut resistant
material or ones that contain cut resistant
