SAFETY

 

 

14.Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil or fuel mixture.

15.Operate the chain saw only in well ventilated areas.

16.Do not operate a chain saw in a tree unless you have been specifically trained to do so.

17.All chain saw service, other than items listed in the Instruction manual maintenance instructions, should be performed by competent service personnel. (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 could subsequently cause the flywheel to burst.)

18.When transporting your chain saw, use the appropriate guide bar scabbard.

19.Spark arrestor mufflers approved to SAE Standard J335 are standard on ECHO chain saws to reduce the possibility of forest fires. Do not operate the chain saw with a loose or defective muffler. Do not remove the spark arrestor screen.

During operation, the muffler or catalytic muffler and surrounding cover become hot.

Never suspend the saw on a lanyard with the engine running.

Always use the saw from the right-hand side of your body – NEVER from the left side.

Always wear proper safety clothing to protect your lower body from sharp saw chain and hot muffler.

Always keep exhaust area clear of flammable debris during transportation or when storing, otherwise serious property damage or personal injury may result.

Moving parts can amputate fingers or cause severe injuries. Keep hands, clothing and loose objects away from all openings.

ALWAYS stop engine, disconnect spark plug, and make sure all moving parts have come to a complete stop before removing obstructions, clearing debris, or servicing unit.

DO NOT start or operate unit unless all guards and protective covers are properly assembled to unit.

NEVER reach into any opening while the engine is running. Moving parts may not be visible through openings.

Using improper replacement components or removing safety devices may result in serious or fatal injury.

Check fuel system for leaks due to fuel tank damage, especially if the unit is dropped. If damage or leaks are found, do not use unit, otherwise serious personal injury or property damage may occur. Have unit repaired by an authorized servicing dealer before using.
