1. For safe operation

1. Never operate a chain saw when you are fatigued, ill, or upset, or under the influence of medica- tion that may make you drowsy, or if you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

2. Use safety footwear, snug fitting clothing and eye, hearing and head protection devices.

Use the vibration-proof glove.

3. Keep the saw chain sharp and the saw, including the AV system, well maintained. A dull chain will increase cutting time, and press- ing a dull chain through wood will increase the vibrations transmit- ted to your hands. A saw with loose components or with dam- aged or worn AV buffers will also tend to have higher vibration lev- els.

4.All the above mentioned precau- tions do not guarantee that you will not sustain whitefinger dis- ease or carpal tunnel syndrome. Therefore, continual and regular users should monitor closely the condition of their hands and fin- gers.

If any of the above symptoms ap-

pear, seek medical advice imme- diately.

5. Always use caution when han- dling fuel. Wipe up all spills and then move the chain saw at least 3 m from the fueling point before starting the engine.

6. Eliminate all sources of sparks or flame (i.e. smoking, open flames, or work that can cause sparks) in the areas where fuel is mixed, poured, or stored.

7. Do not smoke while handling fuel or while operating the chain saw.

8. Do not allow other persons to be

near the chain saw when start-

ing or cutting. Keep bystanders

and animals out of the work area. Children, pets and bystanders should be a minimum of 10 m away when you start or operate

the chain saw.

9. Never start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure foot- ing, and a planned retreat path from the falling tree.

10. Always hold the chain saw firmly with both hands when the engine is running. Use a firm grip with thumb and fingers encircling the chain saw handles.

11. Keep all parts of your body away from the saw chain when the en- gine is running.

12. Before you start the engine, make sure the saw chain is not contacting anything.

13.Always carry the chain saw with the engine stopped, the guide bar and saw chain to the rear, and the muffler away from your body.

14.Always inspect the chain saw be-

fore each use for worn, Ioose, or damaged parts. Never operate a chain saw that is damaged, im- properly adjusted, or is not com- pletely and securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops moving when the throttle control trigger is released.

15. All chain saw service, other than the items listed in the Owner’s Manual, should be performed by competent chain saw service personnel. (E.g., if improper tools are used to remove the flywheel, or if an improper tool is used to hold the flywheel in order to re- move the clutch, structural dam-
