KNOW
YOUR CHAIN SAW
- °'°°°°" i
I NOTE: Before to this familiarize with all
_operating features and safety rules.
Your Chain Saw has a precision built electric motor and it should only be connected
to a 120-volt, 60 Hz AC ONLY power supply (normal household current). The electric
Chain Saw should always be used with a GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) outlet.
DO NOT operate this Chain Saw on direct current (DC). The large voltage drop would cause
a toss of power and the motor would overheat.
If the Chain Saw does not operate when plugged into correct 120-volt, 60 Hz AC ONLY outlet,
check the power supply. The Chain Saw comes with an electric plug and should be plugged
into a proper extension cord (See page 6).
