12. REDUCE THE RISK OF ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Make sure the On/Off Trigger
(25b) is in the “OFF” position before plugging the Electric Cord into a grounded, 120
Volt, electrical outlet.
13. NEVER pass hands or legs directly under the Chain (57) when cutting wood. Al-
ways keep hands and legs a safe distance away from the rotating Chain.
14. PRIOR TO STARTING THE CHAIN SAW, MAKE SURE ALL ADJUSTING KEYS
AND WRENCHES ARE REMOVED FROM THE TOOL.
15. ALLOW THE CHAIN (57) TO ROTATE UP TO FULL SPEED BEFORE FEEDING
IT INTO WOOD. When turning off the Chain Saw, allow the Chain to slow and stop
on its own. Do not press against the Chain to stop it.
16. FEED THE CHAIN (57) GRADUALLY INTO THE MATERIAL BEING CUT. Do not
force the Chain Saw to remove material faster than it was designed to cut.
17. NEVER ATTEMPT TO REMOVE MATERIAL STUCK IN THE MOVING PARTS
OF THE CHAIN SAW WHILE IT IS PLUGGED IN AND RUNNING. TURN OFF
THE CHAIN SAW IF THE CHAIN (57) NEEDS TO BE BACKED OUT OF AN UN-
COMPLETED CUT.
18. NEVER LEAVE THE CHAIN SAW UNATTENDED WHEN IT IS PLUGGED IN.
Turn off the Chain Saw, unplug it from its electrical power source, and wait until it
has completely stopped before leaving.
19. ALWAYS RELEASE THE ON/OFF TRIGGER (25B) TO ITS “OFF” POSITION, AND
UNPLUG THE CHAIN SAW FROM ITS ELECTRICAL SUPPLY SOURCE BE-
FORE PERFORMING ANY INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, OR CLEANING
PROCEDURES.
20. IMPORTANT! TREE FELLING AND BRANCH TRIMMING IS A DANGEROUS
ACTIVITY. USE OF A CHAIN SAW REQUIRES THAT YOU BE IN GOOD PHYSI-
CAL CONDITION, WITH GOOD BALANCE AND COORDINATION. If you are in
