- 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 bers is released.
- When felling, keep at least two tree lengths away from
other persons or animals.
- Beware of carbon monoxide poisoning. Operate the
chain saw in well-ventilated areas only.
- Allow your chain saw to cool before refuelling, and do
not smoke.
- Do not attempt a pruning or limbing operation in a
standing tree unless specically trained to do so.
- All chain saw service, other than the items listed in the
operator’s manuals maintenance instructions, should be
performed by competent chain saw service personnel.
(For example, if improper tools are used to remove the
ywheel or if an improper tool is used to hold the ywheel
in order to remove the clutch, structural damage to the
ywheel could occur and subsequently could cause the
ywheel to burst.)
- This gas-powered saw is classied by CSA as a Class
1A saw. It is a professional chain saw, intended for use
by trained workers, where the operator is expected to
use the chain saw for extended periods of time on a
daily basis.
- Hold the chain saw by the insulated gripping surface
only, because the saw chain may contact hidden
electrical wiring.
