CHAINSAW SAFETY WARNINGS

Ŷ

Always fit the guide bar cover when the product is not in 
use or being carried or transported. This will help reduce 
the risk of accidental contact with the sharp blades on 
the chain. Carry the product by the top handle with the 
guide bar facing away from your body.

Ŷ

You should get used to your new product by making 
simple cuts on securely supported wood. Do this 
whenever you have not operated the product for some 
time.

Ŷ

Cut logs on a saw horse or cradle when operating the 
product for the first time.

Ŷ

Ensure all the guards, handles and spiked bumper are 
properly fitted and are in good condition. 

Ŷ

Persons using the product should be in good health. 
The product is a heavy unit so the operator requires 
to be physically fit. The operator should be alert, have 
good vision, mobility, balance and manual dexterity. If 
there is any doubt, do not operate the product.

Ŷ

Do not stand on any unstable surface while using 
the product. This could include, but is not limited, to 
ladders, scaffolds, and trees. Keep both hands on the 
handles of the product at all times.

Ŷ

Do not start using the product until you have a clear 
work area, secure footing, and a planned retreat path 
away from the falling tree.

Ŷ

Use extreme caution when cutting small-size branches 
and sapling because slender material may catch the 
saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off 
balance.

Ŷ

When cutting a limb under tension, be alert for spring 
back so that you will not be struck when the tension in 
the wood fibres in released.

Ŷ

Beware of the emission of exhaust gases, lubricant mist 
and saw dust. Wear mask or respirator if required.

Ŷ

Do not cut vines and small undergrowth (less than 75 
mm in diameter).

Ŷ

Always hold the product with both hands when 
operating it. Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers 
encircling the handles of the product. Right hand must 
be on the rear handle and left hand on the front handle

Ŷ

Before starting the engine, make sure the saw chain is 
not contacting any object. Always start the product with 
the chain brake applied (pushed fully forward).

Ŷ

Do not modify your product in any way or use it to power 
any attachments or devices not recommended by the 
manufacturer for your product.

Ŷ

There should be a first-aid kit containing large 
wound dressings and a means to summon attention 
(e.g., whistle) close to the operator. A larger more 
comprehensive kit should be reasonably nearby.

Ŷ

The operator may be tempted to remove the helmet if 
there is no danger of falling objects in the work area, but 
the helmet, particularly with the mesh visor, can help 
reduce the potential for injury to the face and head if 
kickback occurs.

Ŷ

An incorrectly tensioned chain can jump off the guide 
bar and could result in serious injury or fatality. The 

length of chain depends on the temperature of the chain 
and chain wear. Check the tension frequently.

Ŷ

Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. 
Greasy and oily handles are slippery, causing loss of 
control.

Ŷ

To reduce the risk of injury associated with contacting 
moving parts, always stop the engine, apply chain 
brake, remove the spark plug wire and make sure all 
moving parts have been come to a stop before

Ɣ

cleaning or clearing a blockage

Ɣ

leaving the product unattended

Ɣ

installing or removing attachments

Ɣ

checking, maintenance or working on the product

Ŷ

The size of the work area depends on the job being 
performed as well as the size of the tree or work piece 
involved. For example, felling a tree requires a larger 
work area than making other cuts, i.e., bucking cuts. 
The operator needs to be aware and in control of 
everything happening in this work area.

Ŷ

Do not cut with your body in line with the guide bar 
and chain. If you do experience kickback, this will help 
prevent the chain from coming into contact with your 
head or body.

Ŷ

Do not use a back-and-forward sawing motion; let the 
chain do the work. Keep the chain sharp, and do not try 
to push the chain through the cut.

Ŷ

Do not put pressure on the saw at the end of the cut. 
Be ready to take on the weight of the saw as it cuts free 
from the wood. Failure to do so could result in possible 
serious personal injury.

Ŷ

Do not stop the saw in the middle of a cutting operation. 
Keep the saw running until it is already removed from 
the cut.
