3. 

Hold the power tool by insulated gripping 
surfaces only, because the saw chain may 
contact hidden wiring.

 Saw chains contacting a 

"live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the 
power tool "live" and could give the operator an 
electric shock. 

4. 

Wear safety glasses and hearing protection. 
Further protective equipment for head, hands, 
legs and feet is recommended.

 Adequate 

protective clothing will reduce personal injury by 
flying debris or accidental contact with the saw 
chain. 

5. 

Before starting work, check that the chain saw is 
in proper working order and that its condition 
complies with the safety regulations. Check in 
particular that: 

• 

The chain brake is working properly; 

• 

The run-down brake is working properly; 

• 

The bar and the sprocket cover are fitted 
correctly; 

• 

The chain has been sharpened and tensioned 
in accordance with the regulations; 

6. 

Do not operate a chain saw in a tree.

 Operation 

of a chain saw while up in a tree may result in 
personal injury. 

7. 

Always keep proper footing and operate the 
chain saw only when standing on fixed, secure 
and level surface.

 Slippery or unstable surfaces 

such as ladders may cause a loss of balance or 
control of the chain saw. 

8. 

When cutting a limb that is under tension be 
alert for spring back.

 When the tension in the 

wood fibres is released the spring loaded limb 
may strike the operator and/or throw the chain 
saw out of control. 

9. 

Use extreme caution when cutting brush and 
saplings.

 The slender material may catch the 

saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull you 
off balance. 

10. 

Carry the chain saw by the front handle with 
the chain saw switched off and away from your 
body. When transporting or storing the chain 
saw always fit the guide bar cover.

 Proper 

handling of the chain saw will reduce the likelihood 
of accidental contact with the moving saw chain.   

11. 

Follow instructions for lubricating, chain 
tensioning and changing accessories.

Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may 
either break or increase the chance for kickback. 

12. 

Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and 
grease.

 Greasy, oily handles are slippery causing 

loss of control. 

13. 

Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for 
purposes not intended. For example: do not 
use chain saw for cutting plastic, masonry or 
non-wood building materials.

 Use of the chain 

saw for operations different than intended could 
result in a hazardous situation. 

14. 

Causes and Operator Prevention of Kickback: 

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 sudden 
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 to lose 
control of the saw which could result in serious 
personal injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the 
safety devices built into your saw. As a chain saw 
user, you should take several steps to keep your 
cutting jobs free from accident or injury. 
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or 
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and 
can be avoided by taking proper precautions as 
given below: 

−

Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers 
encircling the chain saw handles, with both 
hands on the saw and position your body and 
arm to allow you to resist kickback forces. 
Kickback forces can be controlled by the 
operator, if proper precautions are taken. Do 
not let go of the chain saw. 

011443 

−

Do not overreach and do not cut above 
shoulder height.

 This helps prevent 

unintended tip contact and enables better 
control of the chain saw in unexpected 
situations. 

−

Only use replacement bars and chains 
specified by the manufacturer.

 Incorrect 

replacement bars and chains may cause 
chain breakage and/or kickback. 

−

Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening 
and maintenance instructions for the saw 
chain.

 Decreasing the depth gauge height 

can lead to increased kickback. 

15. 

Do not start the chain saw with the chain cover 
being installed on it.

Starting the chain saw with 

the chain cover being installed on it may cause 
the chain cover to thrown out forward resulting in 
personal injury and damage to objects around the 
operator.
