the front handle with your left hand. Hold the

chain saw approximately 14” (35 cm) above

a stump or other wooden surface. Release

CUTTING METHODS

IMPORTANT POINTS

WARNING: Occasionally, wood chips

get stuck in the clutch cover causing the chain

to jam. Always stop engine before cleaning.

S Check chain tension before first use and

after 1 minute of operation. See CHAIN

TENSION in the ASSEMBLY section.

S Cut wood only . Do not cut metal, plastics,

masonry , n on-wood b uildin g mat erials, etc.

S The bumper spike may be used as a pivot

when making a cut. Drive in the bumper

spike of the chain saw directly behind the in-

tended hinge and pivot the saw around this

point. The bumper spike rolls aga inst the

trunk.

S Stop the saw if the chain strikes a foreign

object. Inspect thesaw andrepair parts as

necessary.

S Keepthe chain out ofdirtand sand. Even a

small am ount of d irt will quickly dull a chain

and increase the possibility of kickback.

S Practice cutting a few small lo gs using the

following techniques to get the “feel” of us-

ing your saw b efore you begin a major

sawing o peration.

S Squeeze the throttle trigger and allow

the engine to reach full speed before

cut ting.

S Begin cutting w ith the saw frame

against the log.

S Keep the engine at full speed the en-

tire time you are cutting.

S Allow the chain to cut for you. Exert

only light downward pressure.

S Release the throttle trigger as soon

as the cut is completed, allowing the

engine to idle. If you run the saw at

full throttle without a cutting load, un-

necessary wear can occur.

S To avoid losing control w hen cut is

complete, do not put pressure on saw

at end of cut.

S Stop the engine before setting the saw

down.

TREE FELLING TECHNIQUES

WARNING: Do notcut nearbuildings

or electrical wires if you do not know the di-

rection of tree fall, at night since you will not

be able to see well, or during bad weather

such as rain, snow, or strong winds. as fall is

unpredictable.

Carefully plan your sawing operation in ad-

vance. You need a clear area all around the

tree so you can have secure footing. Check

for broken or dead branches which can fall

on you causing serious injury.

Natural conditions that can cause a tree to

fall in a particular direction include:

S The wind direction and speed.

S The lean of the tree. The lean of a tree

might not be apparent due to uneven or

sloping terrain. Use a plumb or level to de-

termine the direction of tree lean.

S Weight and branches on one side.

S Surrounding trees and obstacles.

Look for decay and rot. If the trunk is rotted,

it can snap and fall toward the operator.

Make sure there is enough room for the tree to

fall. Maintain a distance of

2-1/2 tree lengths

from the nearest person or other objects. En-

gine noise can drown out a warning call.

Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, staples,

and wire from the tree where cuts are to be

made.
