SAFETY RULES
WARNING: The computer derived angles of par. 5.11 of ANSI B 175.1 – 1991 may bear no
relationship to actual kickback bar rotation angles that may occur in real life cutting situa-
tions.
In addition, features designed to reduce kickback injuries may lose some of their effective-
ness when they are no longer in their original condition, especially if they have been impro-
perly maintained.
Compliance with par. 5.11 of ANSI B 175.1 – 1991 does not automatically mean that in a real
life kickback the bar and chain will rotate at most 45°.
Precautions to Reduce Vibration Risk
The chain saw is provided with anti-vibration (AV) system; never alter or modify it.
Wear gloves and keep your hands warm.
Keep the saw chain sharp and the saw, including the AV system, well maintained. A dull chain will increase
cutting time, and pressing a dull chain through wood will increase the vibrations transmitted to your
hands.
Maintain a firm grip at all times, but do not squeeze the handles with constant, excessive pressures, take
frequent breaks. All the above mentioned precautions do not guarantee that you will not sustain white-
finger disease or carpal tunnel syndrome. Therefore, continual and regular users should monitor closely
the condition of their hands and fingers. If any of the above symptoms appear, seek medical advice
immediately.
Maintenance Precaution
WARNING: Never operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly adjusted, or is not com-
pletely and securely assembled.
Be sure that the saw chain stops moving when the throttle control trigger is released. If the saw chain
moves at idle speed, the carburetor may need adjusting, see Operation-Carburetor Adjusting Section.
If the saw chain still moves at idle speed after adjustment has been made, contact a Servicing Dealer for
adjustment and discontinue use until the repair is made.
WARNING: All chain saw service, other than items in the Operator's Manual maintenance
instructions, have to be performed by competent chain saw service personnel. (If improper
tools are used to remove the flywheel or clutch, or if an improper tool is used to hold the
flywheel in order to remove the clutch, structural damage to the flywheel could occur which
could subsequently cause the flywheel to burst and serious injury could result.)
Never modify your saw in any way.
Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil or fuel mixture.
WARNING: Use only accessories and replacement parts recommended.
