I present Exhibit B: the Husqvarna 570 chainsaw owner's manual. This is a product marketed toward lumberjacks -- people who should already know the dangers of running a chainsaw: http://weborder.husqvarna.com/order_...1151002-95.pdf

The warnings of how NOT to operate the device so outweigh the instructions of how to use the thing that the manual is hard to comprehend. 4 pages to tell you how to put in fuel and start the engine?
