Power supply and extention cable
1.Power supply.
Use only an AC voltage supply conforming to the specification on the name plate of the saw.
STOP WARNING!
All electrical repairs to this saw, including housing, trigger, motor, etc., must be diagnosed and performed by an Authorized Service Dealer. Operations performed by untrained persons may lead to the failure of the double insulation and result in serious injury.
2.Extension cable.
The extension cable used to reach the power source must be :
Specifically marked as suitable for outdoor use. The

Cable longer then 50 feet in length is not recommended.
In good condition. Cord insulation must be intact, with no cracks or deterioration. Plug connectors must be undamaged.
3.Important considerations.
a)Secure the tool cable to the extention cord by making a knot to prevent disconnection.
b)Do not abuse cables. Never carry the saw by the power cable or disconnect it by yanking on the cable. Keep tool cable and extention cord away from heat, oil, and sharp edges.
c)Avoid entanglement. Keep cables clear of operator, saw chain, and branches at all times.
d)Inspect electric chain saw and extention cables before each use. Do not use a unit with a damaged cable. Take the unit to your Authorized Service Dealer for repairs.
e)Guard against electric shock. Avoid body contact with any grounded conductor, such as metal pipes or wire fences.
f)Examine the work area. Keep work area well lit. Do not expose an electric chain saw to rain.
Do not use this or any other electric power tool in damp or wet locations. Do not use electric power tools near flammable liquids or gasses.
CAUTION!
Vibrations from the prolonged use of hand tools may cause damage to blood vessel or nerves in the fingers, hands, and wrists of people prone to circulation disorders or abnormal swellings. Prolonged use in cold weather has been linked to blood vessel damage in otherwise healthy people.
If symptoms occur such as numbness, pain, loss of strength, change in skin color or texture, or loss of feeling in the fingers, hands or wrists, discontinue the use of this tool and seek medical attention. Users who operate power tools on a continual and regular basis must keep a close eye on their physical condition and the condition of the tool.
If you experience any discomfort in your fingers, hands, wrists or arms, you should discontinue any work with ALL VIBRATING TOOLS and see your doctor for medical advice.
CAUTION!
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit only one way in a polarized outlet. If the plug does not fit properly in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrican to install the proper outlet.
Do not change the plug in any way.
