ECHO provides an operator’s manual and a safety manual. Both must be read and understood for proper and safe operation. Failure to do so could result in serious injury. X750010904 X7503196704 01/12 RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION A. Kickback Safety Precautions for Chain Saw Users WARNING! 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 lightning fast 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. The Kick Guard® device is not installed on the guide bar when you purchase your ECHO chain saw. The Kick Guard® can be used in a majority of cutting operations, and is especially recom mended for beginners, homeowners, or chain saw novices. Most cutting operations can be accomplished with the Kick Guard® in place. Do not rely exclusively upon the safety de vices built into your saw. As a chain saw user, you should take several steps to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or injury. 1.With a basic understanding of kickback, you can reduce or eliminate the element of surprise. Sudden surprise contributes to accidents. 2.Keep a good firm grip on the saw with both hands, the right hand on the rear handle, and the left hand on the front handle, when the engine is running. Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw handles. A firm grip will help you reduce kickback and maintain control of the saw. Don’t let go. 3.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, or any other obstruction which could be hit while you are operating the saw. 4.Cut at high engine speeds. 5.Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height. 6.Follow manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw chain. 7.Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer or the equivalent.

Serious injury to the operator, helpers, or bystanders may result from one-handed operation. A chain saw is intended for two-handed use. 2.Do not operate a chain saw when you are fatigued. 3.Use safety footwear, snug-fitting clothing and protective gloves. Wear eye, hearing, and head protection devices. 4.Use caution when handling fuel. Move the chain saw at least 3 m (10 feet) from the fueling point before starting the engine. 5.Do not allow other persons to be near when operating the chain saw. 6.Do not start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing, and a planned retreat path from the falling tree. 7.Keep all parts of your body away from the saw chain when the engine is running. 8.Before you start the engine, make sure that the saw chain is not contacting anything. 9.Carry the chain saw with the engine stopped, the guide bar and saw chain to the rear, and the muffler away from your body. 10.Do not operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly adjusted, or not completely and securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops moving when the throttle control trigger is released. 11.Shut off the engine before setting the chain saw down. 12.Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and saplings because slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance. 13.When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for spring-back so that you will not be struck when the tension in the wood fibers is released. 14.Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil or fuel mixture. 15.Operate the chain saw only in well ventilated areas. 16.Do not operate a chain saw in a tree unless you have been specifically trained to do so. 17.All chain saw service, other than items listed in the Instruction manual maintenance instructions, should be performed by competent service personnel. (For example, if improper tools are used to remove the flywheel or if an improper tool is used to hold the flywheel in order to remove the clutch, structural damage to the flywheel could occur and could subsequently cause the flywheel to burst.) 18.When transporting your chain saw, use the appropriate guide bar scabbard. 19.Spark arrestor mufflers approved to SAE Standard J335 are standard on ECHO chain saws to reduce the possibility of forest fires. Do not operate the chain saw with a loose or defective muffler. Do not remove the spark arrestor screen.
