6 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
■ To improve your grip and help protect your hands:
6.4 Chain Saw
WARNING
■ The chain saw's electric motor is not waterproof. To
reduce the risk of serious or fatal injury from electrocution
or electric shock:
– Never use your chain saw if the casing around the
motor is cracked or damaged.
■ The saw chain has many sharp cutters. Contacting the
cutters may result in serious laceration injuries, even if
the chain is not moving. To reduce the risk of such injuries:
– Keep hands, feet and other parts of your body away
from the chain.
– Wear heavy-duty work gloves when handling the
chain saw or its chain.
– Never touch a moving chain with your hand or any
other part of your body.
– Cover the guide bar with a chain scabbard before
transporting or storing the chain saw to reduce the
risk of injury from inadvertent contact.
■ Reactive forces, including kickback, can be dangerous.
– Pay special attention to the section of this instruction
manual on "Kickback and Other Reactive Forces,"
@ 7.
■ This electric chain saw is intended only for light-duty
garden and landscape maintenance around the home.
Use for other purposes may increase the risk of personal
injury and property damage.
– Do not use the chain saw for felling large trees or
cutting large diameter logs.
– Read and follow the operating instructions in this
manual for approved applications, @ 8.
■ To reduce the risk of personal injury to the operator and
bystanders:
– Always release the trigger switch, engage the chain
brake by moving the front hand guard to and
disconnect the chain saw from the power supply
before assembling, transporting, adjusting,
inspecting, cleaning, servicing, maintaining or
storing the chain saw and any other time it is not in
use.
■ Although certain unauthorized attachments may fit your
STIHL chain saw, their use may be extremely dangerous.
Only attachments supplied by STIHL or expressly
approved by STIHL for use with this specific model are
recommended.
– Use only attachments supplied or expressly
approved by STIHL.
– Never modify this chain saw in any way.
– Never attempt to modify or override the chain saw's
controls or safety devices in any way.
– Never use a chain saw that has been modified or
altered from its original design.
■ If the chain saw is dropped or subjected to similar heavy
impacts:
– Check that it is undamaged, in good condition and
functioning properly before continuing work.
– Check that the controls and safety devices, including
the chain brake, are working properly, @ 15.1.
– Wear sturdy boots with non-slip soles.
Steel-toed safety boots are
recommended. Do not wear sandals, flip-
flops, open-toed or similar footwear.
– Always wear heavy-duty non-slip work
gloves made of leather or another wear-
resistant material when handling the
chain saw or its chain.
– Do not expose the chain saw to rain,
water or excessive moisture.
– Store the chain saw indoors.
