IMPORTANT

Servicing requires extreme care and knowledge and should be performed only by a qualified service technician. When servicing use only identical Ryobi replacement parts.

For safe operation, read and understand all instructions before using the chainsaw. Follow all safety instructions. Failure to follow all safety instructions listed below may result in serious personal injury.

WARNING:

Carefully read through this entire operator’s manual before using your new saw. Pay close attention to the Safety Rules and all Safety Alert Symbols including Danger, Warning, and Caution. These safety rules are for your safety and to prevent possible serious injury. If you use your saw properly and only for what it is intended, you will enjoy years of safe, reliable service.

Look for this symbol to point out important safety precautions. It means attention!!! Your safety is involved.

WARNING:

The operation of any tool can result in foreign objects being thrown into your eyes which can result in severe eye damage. Before beginning tool operation, always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields and a full face shield when needed. We recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over spectacles or standard safety glasses with side shields. Always wear eye protection.
