■ALWAYS CARRY THE CHAINSAW WITHTHE ENGINE STOPPED AND THE BRAKE ENGAGED, the guide bar and saw chain to the rear, and the silencer away from your body. When transporting the chainsaw, use the appropriate guide bar scabbard.

■DO NOT OPERATE A CHAINSAWTHAT IS DAMAGED, improperly adjusted, or not completely and securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops moving when the throttle control trigger is released.

■TURN OFF THE ENGINE before setting the chainsaw down. DO NOT leave the engine running unattended.

As an additional safety precaution, apply the chain brake prior to putting down the saw.

■USE EXTREME CAUTION when cutting small-size brush and saplings because slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance.

(For example, if improper tools are used to remove the flywheel or if an improper tool is used to hold the flywheel in order to remove the clutch, structural damage to the flywheel could occur and subsequently cause the flywheel to burst.)

■KEEP ALL PARTS OF YOUR BODY away from the saw chain when the engine is running.
