IMPORTANT SAFETY
INFORMATION
Continued
limb could spring back and strike operator caus-
ing severe injury or death.
16. Carry chain saw from one place to another
• with saw stopped and unplugged
• by holding front handle (never use hand guard
as handle)
• with finger off trigger
• with guide bar and chain to rear
WARNING: Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing, grinding, drill-
ing, and other construction activities
contains chemicals known (to the state
of California) to cause cancer, birth de-
fects, or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints
• crystalline silica from bricks and ce-
ment and other masonry products
• arsenic and chromium from chemi-
cally-treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this
type of work. To reduce your exposure
to these chemicals: work in a well venti-
lated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks
that are specially designed to filter out
microscopic particles.
KICKBACK
WARNING: Kickback may occur when
the nose or tip of the guide bar touches
an object, or when the wood closes in
and pinches the saw chain in the cut. Tip
contact in some cases may cause a light-
ning fast reverse reaction, kicking the
guide bar up and back towards the opera-
tor. Pinching the saw chain along the top
of the guide bar may push the guide bar
rapidly back towards the operator. Either
of these reactions may cause you to lose
control of the saw which could result in
serious injury to user.

Kickback Safety Devices On This Saw

This saw has a low-kickback chain and reduced kick-
back guide bar. Both items reduce the chance of kick-
back. Kickback can still occur with this saw.
Follow assembly instructions on page 16. Do not re-
108539
move front hand guard. Do not replace front hand guard
with substitute.
The following steps will reduce the risk of kickback.
• Use both hands to grip saw while saw is running.
Use firm grip. Thumbs and fingers must wrap
around saw handles.
• Keep all safety items in place on saw. Make sure
they work properly.
• Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.
• Keep solid footing and balance at all times.
• Stand slightly to left side of saw. This keeps your
body from being in direct line with chain.
• Do not let guide bar nose touch anything when
chain is moving (see Figure 2).
• Never try cutting through two logs at same time.
Only cut one log at a time.
• Do not bury guide bar nose or try plunge cut (bor-
ing into wood using guide bar nose).
• Watch for shifting of wood or other forces that may
pinch chain.
• Use extreme caution when reentering a previous cut.
• Use low-kickback chain and guide bar supplied
with this chain saw. Only replace these parts with
chains and guide bars listed in this manual.
• Never use dull or loose chain. Keep chain sharp
with proper tension.
• Do not hand sharpen chain on automatic chain
sharpening (Fast Sharp) models.
Saw Maintenance and Kickback Safety
Follow maintenance instructions in this manual. Proper
cleaning of saw and chain and guide bar maintenance
can reduce chances of kickback. Inspect and main-
tain saw after each use. This will increase the service
life of your saw. Note: Even with proper sharpening,
risk of kickback can increase with each sharpening.
MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE OF
CHAIN SAW
1. Unplug chain saw from power source
• when not in use
• before moving from one place to another
• before servicing
• before changing accessories or attachments,
such as saw chain and guard
2. Inspect chain saw before and after each use.
Check saw closely if guard or other part has been
damaged. Check for any damage that may affect
operator safety or operation of saw. Check for
alignment or binding of moving parts. Check for
broken or damaged parts. Do not use chain saw
if damage affects safety or operation. Have dam-
age repaired by authorized service center.
3. Maintain chain saw with care.
• Never expose saw to rain.
