WARNING

Check the chain tension before each use of the saw.

WARNING

Never operate the chain saw without sufcient chain

lubrication as this might damage the saw and is a threat

to safety. Check the chain lubricant level before each

use!

In order to prevent kickback, please follow these safety

instructions:

 Never cut with the tip of the guide bar! Be careful

when continuing from previous cuts.

 Always start cutting only when the chain saw is

already running.

 Make sure that the saw chain is always properly

sharpened.

 Never cut through more than one branch at a time!

When lopping off branches, be careful not to touch

any other branches.

 When cross-cutting, pay attention to trunks standing

very close to each other. If possible, use a sawing

trestle.

HOLDING THE CHAIN SAW

See figure 8

Always hold the chain saw with your right hand at the

rear handle and your left hand at the front handle.

Grip both handles with the thumbs and fingers encircling

the handles. Ensure that your left hand is holding the front

handle so that your thumb is underneath.

STARTING OPERATION

 Before starting for operation, you should install the

battery pack in the machine.

 Press the safety lock (item 1), this makes the switch

trigger operational.

 Press and hold the trigger (item 2), and keep it

pressed for continued operation.

STOPPING OPERATION

 Release the trigger (item 2) to stop the chain saw.

OPERATING THE CHAIN BRAKE See figure 22

Check the operating condition of the chain brake prior to

each use.

 Engage the chain brake by rotating your left hand

around the front handle, allowing the back of your

hand to push the chain brake lever/hand guard

toward the bar while the chain is rotating rapidly. Be

sure to maintain both hands on the saw handles at

all times.

 Reset the chain brake back into the RUN position by

grasping the top of the chain brake lever/hand guard

and pulling toward the front handle.

WARNING

If the chain brake do not stop the chain immediately, or

if the chain brake will not stay in the run position without

assistance, take the saw to an authorized service center

for repair prior to use.

USING THE CHAIN SAW

Always be sure of your footing and hold the chain saw

rmly with both hands while the motor is running.

BASIC FELLING, LIMBING, AND CROSS-CUTTING

TECHNIQUES

See gure 9

FELLING A TREE

When bucking and felling operations are being performed

by two or more persons at the same time, the felling

operation should be separated from the bucking operation

by a distance of at least twice the height of the tree being

felled. Trees should not be felled in a manner that would

endanger any person, strike any utility line or cause any

property damage. If the tree does make contact with

any utility line, the utility company should be notifi ed

immediately.

The chain saw operator should keep on the uphill side of

the terrain as the tree is likely to roll or slide downhill after

it is felled.

An escape path should be planned and cleared as

necessary before cuts are started. The escape path

should extend back and diagonally to the rear of the

expected line of fall.

Before felling is started, consider the natural lean of the

tree, the location of larger branches and the wind direction

to judge which way the tree will fall.

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

the tree.

NOTCHING UNDERCUT (A NOTCH CUT IN A TREE TO

DIRECT THE FALL)

See Figure 10

Make the notch 1/3 in diameter of the tree, perpendicular

to the direction of falls. Make the lower horizontal notching

cut fi rst, this will help to avoid pinching of either the saw

chain or the guide bar when the second notch is being

made.
