21. Always keep proper footing and operate the chain saw only when standing  
on fixed, secure and level surface. Slippery or unstable surfaces such as  
ladders may cause a loss of balance or control of the chain saw.  
22. Cut wood only. Do not use the product for purposes not intended. For  
example: do not use chain saw for cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood  
building materials. Use of the chain saw for operations different than  
intended could result in a hazardous situation.  
6. Transport and storage  
1. Do ensure the engine is off and engage the chain brake before transporting  
the product.  
2. Do carry the product with the engine stopped, the guide bar and saw chain to  
the rear, and the exhaust away from your body.  
3. Do use the guide bar cover and ensure that is fitted to the product during  
transportation or storage.  
4. Only carry the product in a horizontal position. Grip the front handle in a  
manner that the product is balanced horizontally.  
5. Keep the hot exhaust away from your body and the saw chain behind you.  
6. Correctly secure your product when transporting in a vehicle to prevent  
turnover, fuel spillage and damage to the product.  
7. Always store the product and fuel so that there is no risk of leakages or fumes  
coming into contact with sparks or naked flames from electrical equipment,  
electric motors, relays/switches, boilers etc.  
8. For longer periods of storage or transportation the fuel and chain oil tanks  
must be emptied. Dispose of waste oil and fuel at a local petrol station, local  
authority centre or where facilities exist.  
9. Do store fuel in an approved container designed for that purpose.  
10. Do ensure that the product is cleaned and that a complete service is  
conducted before any long-term storage.  
7. Causes and operator prevention of kickback  
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar touches an object, or  
when the wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut.  
Tip contact in some cases may cause a sudden reverse reaction, kicking the  
guide bar up and back towards the operator.  
DVTUPNFSTFSWJDF!GPDVTꢀPOUPPMTꢁDPN  
1-800-348-5004

Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may push the guide bar  
rapidly back towards the operator.  
Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the saw which could  
result in serious personal injury. Do not rely exclusively upon the safety devices  
built into your saw. As a chain saw user, you should take several steps to keep  
your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.  
Kickback is the result of tool misuse and/or incorrect operating procedures or  
conditions and can be avoided by taking proper precautions as given below:  
1. Maintain a firm grip, with thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw  
handles, with both hands on the saw and position your body and arm to  
allow you to resist kickback forces. Kickback forces can be controlled by  
the operator, if proper precautions are taken. Do not let go of the chain saw.  
2. Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder height. This helps  
prevent unintended tip contact and enables better control of the chain saw in  
unexpected situations.  
3. Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer.  
Incorrect replacement bars and chains may cause chain breakage and/or  
kickback.  
4. Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance instructions for  
the saw chain. Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to increased  
kickback.  
8. Vibration and noise reduction  
To reduce the impact of noise and vibration emission, limit the time of operation,  
use low-vibration and low-noise operating modes as well as wear personal  
protective equipment.  
Take the following points into account to minimise the vibration and noise  
exposure risks:  
1. Only use the product as intended by its design and these instructions.  
2. Ensure that the product is in good condition and well maintained.  
3. Use correct attachments for the product and ensure they are in good  
condition.  
4. Keep tight grip on the handles/gripping surface.  
5. Maintain this product in accordance with these instructions and keep it well  
lubricated (where appropriate).

a saw chain which meets the low-kickback requirements! A  
standard saw chain (a chain which does not have the kickback  
reducing guard links) should only be used by an experienced  
professional operator!  
Nevertheless, a low-kickback saw chain does not completely  
eliminate kickback! A low-kickback or “safety” chain should never  
be regarded as complete protection against injury! Therefore  
always use a low-kickback saw chain in conjunction with other  
kickback protection devices such as the front hand guard!

NOTE: Fix the nuts finger tight only at this stage. The chain tension  
cannot be adjusted with the retaining nut tightened - they must be  
loosened first.  
NOTE: The saw chain (7) has not yet been tensioned. Tension the  
chain as described under “Saw chain tensioning”. After operating  
the product for approximately one hour, adjust the chain tension  
again.  
Saw chain tensioning  
Always check the saw chain tension before use, after the first cuts and regularly  
during use. Upon initial operation, new chains can lengthen considerably. This is  
normal during the break-in period and the interval between future adjustments will  
lengthen quickly.  
WARNING! Disconnect the spark plug connector before adjusting  
saw chain tension!  
The cutting edges of the saw chain are sharp! Always wear  
protective gloves when handling chain!  
Always maintain proper chain tension! A loose chain increases the  
risk of kickback! A loose chain may jump out of the guide bar  
groove! This may injure the operator and damage the chain! A  
loose chain will cause rapid wear to the chain, guide bar and  
sprocket!  
Tensioning the chain too tightly will overload the engine and cause  
damage, and insufficient tension can cause chain derailing,  
DVTUPNFSTFSWJDF!GPDVTꢀPOUPPMTꢁDPN  
1-800-348-5004

whereas a correctly tightened chain provides the best cutting  
characteristics and prolonged working life! The chain life mainly  
depends upon sufficient lubrication and correct tensioning!  
NOTE: The chain tension cannot be adjusted with the retaining  
nuts tightened - they must be loosened first.  
1. Lift up the tip of the guide bar (8) and keep it there as you adjust the tension  
(Fig. 8).

9. Optimum sawing is achieved if the chain speed remains constant during  
cutting.  
10. Be careful when reaching the end of the cut. The weight of the product may  
change unexpectedly as it cuts free from the wood. This can cause  
accidents to the legs and feet. Always remove the product from a wood cut  
while the product is running.  
11. Check that the oil feed to the chain is operating correctly; run the chain saw  
at medium speed and ensure that the chain has received a consistent  
coating of oil.  
6. Kickback  
WARNING! Beware of kickback! Kickback can lead to dangerous  
loss of control of the product and result in serious or fatal injury to  
the operator or anyone standing close by! Always be alert because  
rotational kickback and pinch kickback are major product  
operational dangers and the leading cause of most accidents!  
Kickback may occur if the nose or tip of the guide bar touches an object, or if  
wood pinches the saw chain in the cut.  
In some cases, contact with the tip of the guide bar (8) may cause a lightning-fast  
reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back toward the operator (Figs. 28  
- 30).

Fig. 30  
1. Pinching the saw chain (7) along the bottom of the guide bar (8) may pull the  
product forward away from the operator (“skating”) (Fig. 31).  
Fig. 31  
2. Pinching the saw chain (7) along the top of the guide bar (8) may push the  
guide bar rapidly back toward the operator (“bouncing”) (Fig. 32).  
Fig. 32  
3. Any of these reactions may cause losing control of the product, which could  
result in serious personal injury or even death.  
4. With a basic understanding of ‘kickback’, the element of surprise can be  
reduced or eliminated. Sudden surprise contributes to the majority of  
accidents.  
5. Keep a good firm grip on the product with both hands, the right hand on the  
rear handle (1) and the left hand on the front handle (6), when the engine is  
running. Maintain a firm grip with your thumbs and fingers encircling the  
handles. A firm grip will help you reduce ‘kickback’ and maintain control of  
the product.  
6. You should carefully read all safety warnings and user instructions before  
attempting to operate this product.

To avoid kickback:  
x Saw with guide bar at a flat angle.  
x Never work with a loose, widely stretched or the heavily worn out chain.  
x Ensure chain is sharpened correctly.  
x Never saw above shoulder height.  
x Never work with the tip of the guide bar.  
x Always hold the product firmly with both hands.  
x Always use a low kickback chain.  
x Apply the metal gripping teeth for leverage.  
x Ensure correct chain tension.  
x Do only cut with the engine at high speeds.  
x Do not let the nose of the guide bar contact a log, branch, or any other  
obstruction which could be hit while you are operating the product.  
x Follow manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance instructions for the  
saw chain.  
x Only use replacement guide bars and saw chains specified by the  
manufacturer or equivalent replacements.  
WARNING! Most ‘kickback’ accidents happen during limbing! Pay  
close attention to the position of the ‘kickback’ zone of the bar  
when you are ‘limbing’ branches that are under tension.  
7. Felling a tree  
1. When bucking and felling operations are being performed by two or more  
persons at the same time, the felling operations 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 company should be notified  
immediately.  
2. The product operator should keep on the uphill side of the terrain as the tree  
is likely to roll or slide downhill after it is felled.  
DVTUPNFSTFSWJDF!GPDVTꢀPOUPPMTꢁDPN  
1-800-348-5004  
41  
3. 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 (Fig. 33).  
Fig. 33  
4. 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.  
5. Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, staples and wire from the tree.  
8. Notching undercut  
Make the notch (Fig. 34, B) 1/3 the diameter of the tree, perpendicular to the  
direction of falls (Fig. 34). Make the lower horizontal notching cut first. This will  
help to avoid pinching either the saw chain or the guide bar when the second  
notch is being made.  
Fig. 34  
9. Felling back cut  
1. Make the felling back cut (Fig. 34, A) at least 50 mm higher than the  
horizontal notching cut (Fig. 34). Keep the felling back cut parallel to the  
horizontal notching cut. Make the felling back cut so enough wood is left to  
act as a hinge. The hinge (Fig. 34, C) wood keeps the tree from twisting and  
falling in the wrong direction. Do not cut through the hinge.  
2. As the felling gets close to the hinge, the tree should begin to fall. If there is  
any chance that the tree may not fall in desired direction or it may rock back  
and bind the saw chain, stop cutting before the felling back cut is complete  
DVTUPNFSTFSWJDF!GPDVTꢀPOUPPMTꢁDPN  
1-800-348-5004  
42  
and use wedges of wood, plastic or aluminum to open the cut and drop the  
tree along the desired line of fall.  
3. When the tree begins to fall remove the product from the cut, stop the engine,  
put the product down, then use the retreat path planned. Be alert for  
overhead limbs falling and watch your footing.  
10. Limbing and pruning  
Limbing is removing the branches from a fallen tree. When limbing leave larger  
lower limbs to support the log off the ground. Remove the small limbs in one cut  
(Fig. 35). Branches under tension should be cut from the bottom up to avoid  
binding the product.  
Fig. 35  
WARNING! Never climb into a tree to limb or prune! Do not stand  
on ladders, platforms, logs, or in any position which may cause you  
to lose the balance or control of the saw! When pruning trees, it is  
important not to make the flush cut next to main limp or trunk until  
you have cut off the limb further out to reduce the weight! This  
prevents stripping the bark from the main member!  
WARNING! If the limbs to be pruned are above chest height, hire a  
professional to perform the pruning!  
11. Cutting spring poles  
A spring pole is any log, branch, rooted stump, or sapling which is bent under  
tension by other wood so that it springs back if the wood holding it is cut or  
removed (Fig. 36).  
On a fallen tree, a rooted stump has a high potential of springing back to the  
upright position during the bucking cut to separate the log from the stump.  
Watch out for spring poles, they are dangerous.

Fig. 36  
12. Bucking a log  
Bucking is cutting a log into lengths. It is important to make sure your footing is  
firm and your weight is evenly distributed on both feet. When possible, the log  
should be raised and supported by the use of limbs, logs or chocks.  
1. Follow the simple directions for easy cutting. When the log is supported  
along its entire length (Fig. 37), it is cut from the top (overbuck).  
Fig. 37  
2. When the log is supported on one end (Fig. 38), cut 1/3 the diameter from  
the underside (underbuck). Then make the finished cut by overbucking to  
meet the first cut.  
Fig. 38  
3. When the log is supported on both ends (Fig. 39), cut 1/3 the diameter from  
the top (overbuck). Then make the finished cut by underbucking the lower  
2/3 to meet the first cut.  
Fig. 39  
DVTUPNFSTFSWJDF!GPDVTꢀPOUPPMTꢁDPN  
1-800-348-5004  
44  
4. When bucking on a slope always stand on the uphill side of the log (Fig. 40).  
When “cutting through”, to maintain complete control release the cutting  
pressure near the end of the cut without relaxing your grip on the product  
handles. Do not let the chain contact the ground. After completing the cut,  
wait for the saw chain to stop before you move the product. Always stop the  
engine before moving from tree to tree.  
Fig. 40  
5. Support small logs on a sawing stand or another log while bucking (Fig. 41).  
Fig. 41  
6. If the wood diameter is large enough for you to insert a soft bucking wedge  
without touching the chain, you should use the wedge to hold the cut open to  
prevent pinching (Fig. 42).

3. Sprocket wheel  
NOTE: It is not necessary to remove the saw chain (7) to lubricate  
the sprocket. Lubrication can be done on the job.  
1. Clean the sprocket wheel (8b).  
2. Using a disposable lube gun, insert the needle nose into the lubrication hole  
(8a) and inject grease until it appears at the outside edge of the sprocket (Fig.  
43).

3. Make sure that the chain brake is disengaged. Rotate the saw chain (7) by  
hand. Repeat the lubrication procedure until the entire sprocket has been  
greased.  
4. Guide bar and saw chain maintenance  
Most guide bar problems can be prevented merely by keeping the product well  
maintained. Incorrect filing and non-standard cutter and depth gauge settings are  
the causes of most guide bar problems, primarily resulting in uneven bar wear. As  
the bar wears unevenly, the rails widen, which may cause the chain to clatter and  
make it difficult to complete straight cuts. If the guide bar is insufficiently  
lubricated and the product is operated with a saw chain which is too tight, this will  
contribute to rapid bar wear. To help minimise bar wear, maintenance of the guide  
bar as well as the saw chain is recommended.  
1. Disassemble the guide bar and saw chain in reversed order from assembly.  
2. Check the oiling port (14) for clogging and clean if necessary to ensure proper  
lubrication of the guide bar and saw chain during operation. Use a soft wire  
small enough to insert into the oil discharge hole (Fig. 44).  
14  
Fig. 44  
NOTE: The condition of the oil passages can be easily checked. If  
the passages are clear, the chain will automatically give off a spray  
of oil within seconds of the product starting. Your product is  
DVTUPNFSTFSWJDF!GPDVTꢀPOUPPMTꢁDPN  
1-800-348-5004  
48  
equipped with an automatic oiling system.  
3. Check the drive sprocket. If it is worn or damaged due to strain, have it  
replaced by an authorised service centre or a similarly qualified person.  
4. Clear residue from the rails on the guide bar (8) using a screwdriver, putty  
knife, wire brush or other similar tool. This will keep the oil passages open to  
provide proper lubrication to the guide bar (8) and saw chain (7) (Fig. 45).  
Fig. 45  
5. Check the guide bar ‘rail’ for wear: Hold a ruler (straight edge) against the  
side of the guide bar and ‘cutter side plates’. If there is a gap between the  
ruler and guide bar the guide bar ‘rail’ is normal. If there is no gap (ruler flush  
against the side of the guide bar) the guide bar ‘rail’ is worn and needs to be  
replaced with a new one of the same type (Fig. 46).  
Fig. 46  
6. Turn the guide bar 180° to allow even wear, thereby extending the life span of  
the guide bar (8).  
7. Check the saw chain for possible wear and damages. Replace it with a new  
one if required. Experienced user can sharpen a dull saw chain (see section  
Saw chain sharpening” below).  
8. Refit the saw chain (7) and the guide bar (8) as described under section  
Assembly”.  
5. Saw chain sharpening  
NOTE: Saw chain sharpening may be required:  
-
-
after damp wood is cut (mealy sawdust),  
when handling the product becomes difficult (pulls to the left  
DVTUPNFSTFSWJDF!GPDVTꢀPOUPPMTꢁDPN  
1-800-348-5004  
49  
or right),  
-
when the saw chain is blunt (excessive force is required to  
penetrate the wood), or obviously damaged.  
Never saw with a blunt chain. The saw chain is blunt if you have to  
push the product into the tree and the chips are very small.  
1. Have the saw chain (7) sharpened professionally at an authorised service  
centre or sharpen the chain yourself by using a proper sharpening kit. Also  
observe the sharpening instructions supplied with the sharpening kit.  
WARNING! Only sharpen the saw chain yourself if you are trained  
and have experience! Use proper tools to sharpen the saw chain!  
2. The height difference between the tooth and the ridge is the cutting depth.  
When sharpening the saw chain (7) you have to consider the following points  
(Fig. 47).  
-
-
-
-
File angle  
Cutting angle  
File position  
Diameter of round file  
- File depth  
Fig. 47  
3. To sharpen the chain proceed as follows:  
-
-
Use protective gloves.  
Ensure the chain is correctly tensioned.  
- Engage the chain brake to lock the chain on the bar.  
4. Use the chain file (not delivered), whose diameter is 1.1 times the cutting  
tooth depth. Make sure 20% of the file diameter is above the cutter’s top plate.  
DVTUPNFSTFSWJDF!GPDVTꢀPOUPPMTꢁDPN  
1-800-348-5004  
50  
NOTE: A file guide is available from most reputable tool merchants  
and is the easiest way to hold the file at the correct position.  
5. File at an angle perpendicular to the bar, and at an angle of 30° to the  
direction of travel (Fig. 48).  
30  
Fig. 48  
6. File each tooth from the inside towards outside only. File one side of the chain  
first than turn the saw around and repeat the process.  
7. Sharpen each tooth equally by using the same number of strokes.  
8. Keep all cutter lengths equal. Check the safety depth gauge height every 5  
sharpenings. If the depth gauges are also trimmed it is essential that the  
original profile be restored.  
9. Use a depth gauge measuring instrument to check the height of the depth  
gauge. Depth gauge measuring jigs are available from most reputable tool  
merchants (Fig. 49).
