If you have any condition that might be aggravated by strenuous work, check with doctor before operating. Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. S Do not start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing, and especially if you are felling a tree, a retreat path. Keep work area clean. OPERATE YOUR SAW SAFELY S Do not operate with one hand. Serious injury to the operator, helpers, or bystanders may result from one-handed operation. A chain saw is intended for two-handed use. S Do not operate saw from a ladder or in a tree. S Make sure the chain will not make contact with any object while starting the saw. Never start the saw when the guide bar is in a cut. S Don’t force chain saw. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was intended. S Do not put pressure on the saw, especially at the end of the cut. Doing so can cause you to lose control when the cut is completed. S Stop the saw before setting it down. S Hand carry saw only when motor is stopped. Carry the chain saw by the front handle with the saw stopped, finger off the switch, the guide bar and saw chain to the rear. S Use the right tool, cut wood only.
