Use only extension cords intended for use outdoors and so marked.

14.Stay Alert

Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate chain saw when you are tired. Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain when the motor is operating. Before you start the saw, make sure the saw chain is not contacting anything.

15.Check Damaged Parts

Before further use of the chain saw, a guard or other part that is damaged should be carefully checked t o determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any other conditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless other- wise indicated elsewhere in this instruction manual. Have defective switches replaced by authorized service center. Do not use chain saw if switch does not turn it on and off. Do not operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly adjusted, or is not completely and securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops moving when the trigger is released.

16.Guard Against Kickback

WARNING: KICKBACK may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut. Tip contact in some cases may cause a lightning fast reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the operator. Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator. Either of these reactions may cause you t o lose control of the saw which could result in serious injury to user. The following precautions should be followed t o minimize kickback.
