Use and Care Guide

56V LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS CHAIN SAW — CS1800/CS1800-FC14
ADDITIONAL WARNINGS
◾
With a basic understanding of
kickback (Fig. 3-5), you can
reduce or eliminate the element
of surprise. Sudden surprise
contributes to accidents.
◾
Make sure that the area in
which you are cutting is free
from obstructions. Do not let
the nose of the guide bar contact
a log, branch, fence, or any other
obstruction that could be hit while
you are operating the saw.
◾
Inspect the work piece for nails,
wire, or other foreign objects
prior to cutting.
◾
Plan the work, ensuring an
obstacle-free work area and, in
the case of felling, at least one
escape path from the falling
tree.
◾
When felling, keep bystanders
at least two tree lengths away.
◾
Keep proper footing and balance
at all times.
