  • Page 7: Safe Use

    • See to it that others keep their distance as long as the chain is in motion. Keep onlookers, children and animals away from the work area. Do not let inexperienced persons handle the chainsaw or power cable. • Keep work area clear and well-lighted. Do not operate chain saw under wet or humid conditions, around water or in rain or snow.
  • Page 8 • Double-insulated! Your electric chain saw is double-insulated for added protection against electric shock. A double-insulated electric tool is designed with two separate «layers» of electrical insulation or one layer of insulation of double thickness between the operator and the tool's conducting parts. Double-insulated tools do not use earthed mains connections and may therefore be connected to any normal 120 V AC outlet.
  • Page 9: Kickback Prevention

    Kickbacks occur suddenly and without warning. A kickback may be violent enough to throw a chainsaw back at the user. A running chain can inflict severe and even fatal injury. It is imperative for users to be familiar with the causes of kickbacks in order to exercise the proper a care and use working techniques to prevent kickback.
  • Page 10: Chain Brake With Kickback Guard

    • Most accidents caused by kickbacks take place in connection with limbing. Make certain your footing is secure and that there are no i objects nearby which may trip you or make you lose your balance. If you are not careful, the kickback danger zone could make contact with a branch, a nearby tree or some other object which could cause a kickback.
  • Page 11 • The chain brake (A) is activated either manually (with the left hand) or by the force of inertia (the inertia of the kickback guard resisting the motion of the saw from the force of the kickback). However it is activated, the kickback protection mechanism works in the opposite direction to the force of the kickback.
  • Page 12: Brake Band Inspection

    Brake band inspection • Clean sawdust, pitch, and debris from the chain brake and clutch drum. Wear and debris both affect brake function. • Inspect the brake band regularly, ensuring that it is nowhere less than 0.6 mm thick Kickback guard inspection •...
  • Page 13: Chain Catcher

    The chain catcher is designed to catch a chain which breaks or jumps out of its groove. This problem will generally be avoided, however, if the chain is tensioned properly (see chapter on «Assembly and Adjustment of Guide Bar and Chain») and the chain and guide bar properly maintained. Ensure that the CHAIN CATCHER is undamaged.

  • Page 15: Cutting Equipment

    This section explains how correct maintenance and use of the right cutting equipment: • Reduces kickback tendencies. • Reduces the frequency of chain derailing and breakage. • Achieves maximum cutting effect. • Increases the service life of the chain. The five basic rules •...
  • Page 16: Filling Chain Oil

    Filling chain oil • All our chain saw models feature automatic chain lubrication. Checking automatic chain lubrication system • Start the chain saw and point the guide bar towards a fixed, light-coloured object at a distance of approximately 20 cm. After running the saw for a minute, a streak of oil spatter should be clearly visible on the light surface.
  • Page 17: Starting And Stopping

    STARTING AND STOPPING CAUTION! • Make certain at all times that your footing is secure and that the chain touches nothing but the wood you are cutting. • Keep bystanders away from your work area. Starting • Grip the front handle firmly with your left hand. •...
  • Page 18: Crosscutting

    HORIZONTAL FILE ANGLE FILE DIAMETER FILE DEPTH See «Technical Specifications» for the details which apply to your chain. It is very difficult to file a chain saw correctly without the proper aids. We recommend the use of a file guide to ensure maximum cutting efficiency with the least tendency to kickback.
  • Page 19: Limbing

    - If it is possible to turn the log, stop cutting 2/3 of the way through the log. - Turn the log and cut the remaining section from above. • Cutting a log supported at one end. The log is more than likely to splinter if cut straight through from the top down.
  • Page 20: Felling Operations

    FELLING OPERATIONS CAUTION! Felling a tree is a job which calls for experience. Do not attempt to fell trees if you are inexperienced. DO NOT CARRY OUT ANY OPERATIONS FOR WHICH YOU DO NOT FEEL QUALIFIED! CAUTION! Beginning chain saw operators should gain experience cutting logs on a sawhorse or similar arrangement.
  • Page 21: Felling

    Felling Three cuts are made to fell a tree. The «TOP NOTCH CUT» and the «BOTTOM» or «HORIZONTAL NOTCH CUT» form the «NOTCH», which determines the direction in which the tree will fall. The final cut is the «FELLING CUT», which allows the tree to topple over. Notch To form the NOTCH, start with the TOP NOTCH CUT.
  • Page 22: Daily Inspection And Maintenance

    If the HINGE WOOD is too small or has been sawn through, or if the notch and the felling cut are mismatched, the tree is no longer under control. As the felling cut approaches the notch, the tree should start falling, either by itself or with the help of a WEDGE or FELLING BAR.
