4Hk WARNING: Some dust created by

power sanding, sawing, grinding, drill=

ing, and other construction activities

contains chemicals known (to the state

of California) to cause cancer, birth de-

fects, or other reproductive harm. Some

examples of these chemicals are:

* lead from lead=based paints

, crystalline silica from bricks and ce=

ment and other masonry products

, arsenic and chromium from chemically=

treated lumber

Your risk from these exposures varies,

depending on how often you do this

type of work.To reduce you r exposu re to

these chemicals: work in a well ventilated

area, and work with approved safety

equipment, such as those dust masks

that are specially designed to filter out

microscopic particles.

KICKBACK

_,WARNING: Kickbackmayoccurwhen

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

lightning fast reverse reaction, kicking the

guide bar up and back towards the opera=

tot. 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 injury to user.

Kickback Safety Devices On This Saw

This saw has a low-kickback chain and reduced

kickback guide bar. Both items reduce the chance of

kickback. Kickback can still occur with this saw.

Follow assembly instructions on page 16. Do not

remove front hand guard. Do not replace front hand

guard with substitute.

The following steps will reduce the risk of kickback.

* Use both hands to grip saw while saw is running.

Use firm grip. Thumbs and fingers must wrap

around saw handles.

, Keep all safety items in place on saw. Make sure

they work properly.

, Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.

, Keep solid footing and balance at all thnes.

* Stand slightly to left side of saw. This keeps your

body from being in direct line with chain.

, Do not let guide bar nose touch anything when

chain is moving (see Figure 2).

, Never try cutting through two logs at same time.

Only cut one log at a time.

, Do not bury guide bar nose or try plunge cut (boring

into wood using guide bar nose).

* Watch for shifting of wood or other forces that may

pinch chain.

, Use extreme caution when reentering a previous cut.

, Use low-kickback chain and guide bar supplied

with this chain saw. Only replace these parts with

chains and guide bars listed in this manual.

, Never use dull or loose chain. Keep chain sharp

with proper tension.

Saw Maintenance and Kickback Safety

Follow maintenance instructions in this manual. Proper

cleaning of saw and chain and guide bar maintenance

can reduce chances of kickback. Inspect and maintain

saw after each use. This will increase the service fifeof

your saw. Note: Even with proper sharpening, risk of

kickback can increase with each shaq)ening.
