IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

■Push and Pull - This reaction force is always opposite to the direction the chain is moving where wood contact is made. Thus, the operator must be ready to control the PULL when cutting on the bottom edge of the bar, and PUSH when cutting along the top edge. See Figure 3.

IN THE CUTTING/WORK AREA

■ Do not operate a chain saw in a tree, on a ladder, or scaffold; this is extremely dangerous.

■ Keep ALL children, bystanders, visitors, and animals out of the work area while starting or cutting with the chain saw.

NOTE: The size of the work area depends on the job being performed as well as the size tree or work piece involved. For example, felling a tree requires a larger work area than making bucking cuts.

■Never start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing, and a planned retreat path

from the falling tree. Cluttered area invite injuries.

■Do not expose the chain saw to rain.

■ Do not use the chain saw in damp or wet locations.

■Do not use the chain saw near flammable liquids,

gases, or in any type of explosive atmosphere.

■ 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.

■When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for spring back so that you will not be struck when the tension in the wood fibers is released.

■Do not force the chain saw. The job can be per- formed better and safer at the rate for which it was intended.

■Always use the right product for your application. The chain saw should be used for cutting wood only. Never use the chain saw to cut plastic, masonry or non-wood building materials.

■Do not use the chain saw for purposes not in- tended.

■Store idle chain saw when not in use, chain saw should be stored in a dry and high or locked area out of the reach of children. When storing chain saw, remove battery and place the scabbard on the bar and chain or store the chain saw in a carry case.

■Remove the battery pack from the chain saw before cleaning, servicing, storing, removing material from the unit, changing accessories such as the bar and chain, or when not in use.
