This equipment should not be operated by persons under 18 years of age.

NEVER operate this equipment without proper protective clothing, shatterproof glasses, steel- toed boots and other protective devices required by the job.

NEVERoperate this equipment when not feelingwellduetofatigue, illnessor taking medicine.

NEVERoperate this equipment under the influence or drugs or alcohol.

NEVER use accessories or attachments, which are not recommended by Multiquip for this equipment. Damage to the equipment and/or injury to user may result.

The manufacturer does not assume responsibility for any accident due to equipment modifications.

Whenever necessary, replace nameplate, operation and safety decals when they become difficult to read.

Always check the machine for loosened threads or bolts before starting.

NEVER touch the hot exhaust manifold, muffler or cylinder. Allow these parts to cool before

servicing engine or saw.

HighTemperatures – Allow the engine to cool before adding fuel or performing service and maintenance functions. Contact with hot components can cause serious burns.

The engine section of this saw requires an adequate free flow of cooling air. Never operate the saw in any enclosed or narrow area where free flow of the air is restricted. If the air

flow is restricted it will cause serious damage to the saw or engine and may cause injury to people. Remember the saw's engine gives off DEADLY carbon monoxide gas.

Always refuel in a well-ventilated area, away from sparks and open flames.

Always use extreme caution when working with flammable liquids. When refueling, stop the engine and allow it to cool. DO NOT smoke around or near the machine. Fire or explosion could result from fuel vapors, or if fuel is spilled on a hot engine.

NEVER operate the saw in an explosive atmosphere or near combustible materials. An explosion or fire could result causing severe bodily harm or even death.

Topping-off to the filler port is dangerous, as it tends to spill fuel.

NEVER use fuel as a cleaning agent.
