(SFPM).
Ensure the 5/8" blade-mounting bolt is tightened to 125-
175 foot lbs. of torque.
NEVER leave the machine

while running.
Ensure brakes are applied when leaving or when using
on a slope. This saw utilizes a brake system where the
brakes are automatically applied when the engine is
stopped.
Start engine with the control handle in the NEUTRAL
position to prevent unexpected saw movement.

unexpected loss of control.
DO NOT use on excessive slopes or on extremely
uneven surfaces.
If the saw must be parked on a slope and engine turned
off, ensure the parking brake is engaged and holds the
saw safely in place. Turning the saw across the angle of
the slope will help prevent accidental downhill movement.
Block the saw as well when leaving.
