G.
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.
H.
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 use the guide bar cover.
Proper handling of the chain saw reduces the likelihood of accidental contact with the moving saw chain.
I.
Follow the instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning, and changing accessories.
Improperly tensioned or lubricated chain may either break or increase the chance for kickback.
J.
Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.
Greasy, oily handles are slippery, causing loss of control.
K.
Avoid kickback.
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar touches an object, or when the wood pinches the saw chain while you are cutting. Tip contact may cause a sudden reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back toward you; pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly back toward you. Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the saw, which could result in a serious personal injury. You can avoid kickback by taking proper precautions as given below:
• Use both hands whenever you operate the chain saw. Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw handles, with both hands on the saw, and with your body and arm in position that allows you to resist kickback forces.
You can control kickback forces if proper precautions are taken. Do not let go of the chain saw!
• 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.
