condition that may affect its operation.

A guard or other part that is damaged

should be properly repaired or replaced

by an authorized service center unless

indicated elsewhere in this manual.

14)Keep Work Area Clean.

Cluttered areas invite injuries.

Cordless Limbing and Trimming Chain Saw EN

1110

Do not start cutting until you have a clear

work area, secure footing, and a planned

retreat path from the falling limbs.

15)Consider Work Area Environment.

Use extreme caution when cutting small

size brush and saplings because the

slender material may catch the saw chain

and be whipped toward you or pull you off

balance.

Do not operate JAWSAW

®

in a tree unless

speciﬁcally trained to do so.

When cutting a limb that is under tension

be alert for spring back so that you will not

be struck when the tension in the wood

ﬁbers is released.

18)Keep all parts of the body away

from the saw chain when the motor

is operating. Before you start the saw,

make sure the saw chain is not contacting

anything.

19)Guard Against Kickback

WARNING! KICKBACK may occur

when the nose or tip of the guide

bar touches and object, or when the wood

closes in and pinches the saw chain in the

cut. Ti contact in some cases may cause a

lightning fast reverse reaction, kicking the

guide bar up and back towards the

operator: 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 injury to user. The following

precautions should be followed to

minimize kickback.

1. Grip saw ﬁrmly. Hold the jaw saw ﬁrmly

with both hands when the motor is

running. Use a ﬁrm grip with thumbs and

ﬁngers encircling the jaw saw handles.

2. Do not over reach.

3. Keep proper footing and balance at all

times.

4. Don’t let the nose of the guide bar contact

a log, branch, ground or other obstruction.

5. Use devices such as low kickback chain,

guide bar nose guards, chain brakes and

special guide bars that reduce the risks

associated with kickback.

6. Only use replacement bars and chains

speciﬁed by the manufacturer or the

equivalent.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY

WARNINGS FOR JAWSAW

1. Pre-plan a safe exit from falling branches

and debris. Ensure the exit route is clear

of obstacles that would prevent or hinder

movement. Remember freshly cut bark and

wet grass is slippery.

2. Be aware of the direction that a branch may

fall. Consider all conditions that may affect

the direction of fall. Including:

a. The intended direction of fall.

b. The natural lean of the branch.

c. Any unusual heavy limb structure or decay.

d. Surrounding trees and obstacles including

overhead power lines.

e. The wind speed and direction.

3. The safe distance between a branch

and debris to be felled and bystanders,

buildings, and other objects is at least

2 ½ times the length of the branch. Any

bystander, building, or object within this

distance is at risk from being struck by the

falling branch.

4. Do not let the moving chain contact any

object at the tip of the guide bar.

5. Begin and continue cutting only with the

chain moving at full speed.

6. When using the Extension pole to cut the

branches on a tree, make sure to keep a

ﬁrm footing and balance. Do not stand the

position where the branch may land after

being cut.

7. Before cutting is started, consider the

natural lean of the tree, the wind direction

to judge which way the branch will fall.

Cordless Limbing and Trimming Chain Saw EN

1514

NOTE: It is not possible to overtighten the

Saw Chain, so tighten the chain as much as

possible.

5. Check that the correct Saw Chain tension

has been set. It should be possible to pull

the Saw Chain away from the side of the

Guide Bar approximately 3mm and it

should snap back. (See Fig. E)

If tension is incorrect, repeat step 3, ensuring

the Guide Bar is free to move when the

tension is released.

CHANGING THE GUIDE BAR AND SAW

CHAIN

WARNING:

• Laceration hazard. Always wear

protective gloves when installing or

removing the saw chain. The saw chain is

sharp and can cut you even when it is not

running.

• Burn hazard. The chain guide bar and

chain may become hot during use. Allow to

cool before adjustment or removal.

1. Ensure the operation is carried out on a

ﬁrm surface.

2. Disconnect the power, install the Lock Pin

(12) and open the Chain Access Cover (9)

as described in the previous section.

3. Use only WORX replacement Guide Bar

and Saw Chain.

4. Loosen and remove the Chain Tensioning

Bolt (17).

5. Lift the Guide Bar (7) and Saw Chain (8) out

through the jaw, angling the Guide Bar to

clear the two bar locating pins (d) (See Fig.

I).

6. If replacing the Guide Bar, remove the

mounting plate (a), which is retained by a

single screw and ﬁt to the new Guide Bar.

The Guide Bar is symmetrical and may be

mounted with either face outward (can be

reversed if the lower working edge is worn)

(See Fig. F).

7. Before re-ﬁtting the Guide Bar, check that

the small oil hole (b) and chain slot (c) are

not blocked by dirt or sawdust, use a small

toothpick to clean if necessary (See Fig.

G1,G2).

8. Reﬁt the Saw Chain to the Guide Bar. Note

the correct direction of the teeth (See Fig.

H). The cutting direction is inward on the

lower cutting edge.

9. With the mounting plate (a) side of the

Guide Bar facing the Motor (8) and holding

the Saw Chain in place on the bar, feed bar

and chain into the jaw, angling over the

bar locating pins (d) and pulling the Saw

Chain over the drive Sprocket (17) (See

Fig. I). There will be little excess Saw Chain

length, therefore, the Saw Chain must

be properly ﬁtted in the Guide Bar slot to

provide enough extra chain to be pulled

over the drive Sprocket.

10. Check if all parts are seated properly. (See

Fig J)

11. Reﬁt and tighten the Chain Tensioning Bolt.

Note the cam (e) of the Chain Tensioning

Bolt will engage the projecting tab (f) of

the bar mounting plate and push the bar

the Lock Pin.

LUBRICATION

IMPORTANT: The JAWSAW

®

is

shipped with an empty oil tank. It

is essential to ﬁll with chain oil before

use. It is important to use only the

recommended standard bar and chain oil

(Grade: ISO VG32) to avoid damage to

the JAWSAW

®

. This can be found at the

location you purchased this saw or your

local hardware store.

Never operate the JAWSAW

®

without

chain oil or an empty tank as this will

result in poor cutting performance,

motor overload and possible burn-out.

FILLING OIL TANK:

1. Fill Oil Bottle (19) with chain and bar oil.

(See Fig. K)

2. Rest the JAWSAW

®

with the Oil Filler facing

upward.

3. Uncrew the oil ﬁller cap (g) open.

4. Use bottle to ﬁll oil reservoir. (See Fig. L)

5. Screw the oil ﬁller cap.

Cordless Limbing and Trimming Chain Saw EN

1514

IMPORTANT: Use only the

recommended oil to avoid damage

to the JAWSAW

®

. Never use recycled/

old oil. Use of non approved oil will

invalidate the warranty.

CHECKING THE AUTOMATIC OILER

The JAWSAW

®

uses a much lower chain

speed than a conventional chainsaw so it

needs much less oil.

However it is very important that it always

has oil.

Check the Oil Level Window (14) and reﬁll as

necessary.

During operation, periodically check the

Saw Chain (8) and Guide Bar (7). A slight oil

presence should be visible. If the chain and

bar appear completely dry, then remove the

bar and chain (see previous section) to ensure

the bar oil hole is not blocked.

If the oil hole is clear, there is oil in the tank

and still no oiling of the chain is visible –

contact WORX customer service.

WARNING: Do not push the rear

handle repeatedly when the saw is

not cutting. The oil will be bumped out

when pushing the handle whether the

motor runs or not.

CUTTING

Check oil level window (14) prior to starting

Cordless Limbing and Trimming Chain Saw EN

1716

and regularly during operation. Reﬁll oil when

oil level is low.

If operating with a newly replaced Saw Chain

(8), check the chain tension around every 10

minutes during operation.

Always hold the Front Handle (4) ﬁrmly when

cutting (See Fig. O1, O2)

1. Use both hands to grip saw ﬁrmly. Always

use your left hand (I) to grip the front

handle and your right hand (II) to grip the

Rear Handle(1). Thumbs and ﬁngers must

wrap around saw handles (See Fig. O1, O2).

2. IMPORTANT: Make sure your footing is

ﬁrm and stable. Do not use the JAWSAW

®

while standing on piles of branches or

while standing on a ladder.

HINT: When cutting branches which are

lying on the ground, place one foot on the

branch to prevent limb from moving (See

Fig. P).

WARNING! Do not put your foot in

the Jaw opening, keep your foot a

safe distance from the tool. (See Fig. P)

3. Position the tool with the Jaw placed over

the desired branch to be cut.

WARNING! DO NOT force the cut.

Let the Saw Chain pull through the

wood.

WARNING! When starting the saw

make sure the chain is not in contact

with the limb or branch to be cut.

4. Switch on the tool.

5. Push the Rear Handle towards the Front

Handle to complete the cut.

6. Switch off the tool after the Guide Bar and

Saw Chain have returned to their starting

position.

WARNING:

• When completing the cut (step 6 above)

do not push the handle forcefully, let the

spinning chain pull itself through the

wood.

• Using too much force on the rear handle

when cutting can overload the tools motor.

CAUTION: At the end of each cut be

prepared to support the tools

weight.

TRIMMING BRANCHES:

Before cutting any branch, you must consider

the following:

1. Is the branch heavy, will it damage

anything when it falls?

• Large branches should be cut in small

sections starting at the farthest end from

the tree.

• Always check where the branch will fall

BEFORE commencing the cut.

• Never stand under a branch being cut.

2. Will the branch split before it is cut

through? (See Fig. Q1,Q2)

• To prevent splitting, turn the JAWSAW

®

upsidedown and make a small cut (less

than 1/3 diameter of the limb) from the

underside.

• Then turn the JAWSAW

®

over to the

normal position and cut from top down,

slightly further out from the trunk than the

initial undercut.

3. Is the branch under tension, will it spring

suddenly or trap the saw when it is cut?

• Always stand outside the path of a

springy branch. It can strike suddenly with

surprising force and cause injury or loss of

control of the saw.

• Always cut from the tension side of a

branch, usually the top of a branch on a

standing tree, but can be any side of the

branch of a fallen tree.

• If the cut starts to close on the saw, you

are cutting from the wrong side, keep the

saw running and pull the saw to retract the

blade from the cut.

• If the saw becomes trapped do not try

to pull it out with excessive force, lift the

branch to open the cut while an assistant

removes the saw.

KICKBACK SAFETY

This saws chain is covered by a guard

however, kickback can still occur. The

following steps will reduce the risk of kickback

• Use both hands to grip saw while saw is

running. Use ﬁrm grip. Thumbs and ﬁngers

must wrap around saw handles.

• Keep all safety items in place on saw.

Make sure they work properly.

• Do not overreach.

Cordless Limbing and Trimming Chain Saw EN

1716

• Keep solid footing and balance at all times.

• Stand slightly to right side of saw. This

keeps your body from being in direct line

with Saw Chain.

• Do not let guide bar nose touch anything

when Saw Chain is moving.

• Do not bury Guide Bar nose or try to

plunge cut (boring into wood using bar

nose).

• Watch for shifting of wood or other forces

that may pinch Saw Chain.

• Use extreme caution when reentering a

previous cut.

• Never use a dull or loose Saw Chain. Keep

Saw Chain sharp with proper tension.

PROPERLY USING THE JAWSAW

®

Use the JAWSAW

®

only with secure footing.

Hold the JAWSAW

®

at the right-hand side of

your body. (See Fig. R)

The Saw Chain must be running at full speed

before it makes contact with the wood. Use

the metal Jaw Teeth (6) to secure the saw onto

the wood before starting to cut. (See Fig.S)

Do not operate the JAWSAW

®

with arms fully

extended or attempt to saw areas which are

difﬁcult to reach, or on a ladder. (See Fig. T)

CUTTING WOOD UNDER TENSION (See

Fig. U)

WARNING: When cutting a limb

that is under tension, use extreme

caution. Be alert for wood springing

back. When wood tension is released,

the limb could spring back and strike

operator causing severe injury or death.

When sawing logs supported on both ends,

start the cut from above(Y) about 1/3 of the

diameter into the log and then ﬁnish the cut

(Z) from below, in order to avoid contact of

the JAWSAW

®

with the ground. When sawing

logs supported on only one end, start the cut

from below (Y) about 1/3 of the diameter into

the log and ﬁnish the cut from above (Z) in

order to avoid log splitting or jamming of the

tool.

LIMBING A TREE (See Fig. V)

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 as

illustrated. Branches under tension against

the ground should be cut from the bottom up

to avoid binding the JAWSAW

®

.

BUCKING A LOG (See Fig. W)

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.

Follow the simple directions for easy cutting.

WARNING: (See Fig. X)

• If on slope, make sure log will not roll

down hill. Secure log by using

wooden stakes. Drive wooden stakes into

ground on downhill side of log. Stand on

uphill side of log while cutting. Log may

roll after cutting. (See Fig. X)

• Never try cutting through two logs at

same time. This could increase the risk of

kickback.

• While cutting log, never hold log with your

hand or leg.

• While cutting log, never allow another

person to hold log.

• Turn off the saw before moving from one

place to another.

CUTTING WITH EXTENSION POLE

(WHEN USED WITH OPTIONAL POLE

ATTACHMENT)

1. Attached the Extension Pole as described

in ‘’Assembling the extension pole’’.

NOTE: The JAWSAW

®

is quite heavy on

the end of the Extension Pole.

Add the Extension Pole attachment when

cutting limbs above shoulder height and

remove the pole saw when cutting limbs at

or below shoulder height.

2. Lift JAWSAW

®

with Extension Pole upward

one step by one step (See Fig. ZA). To

raise to the vertical position, lift by the

JAWSAW

®

ﬁrst, then hand over hand along

the pole.

3. Before cutting a high branch, consider all

the same points detailed in the previous

section “Trimming Branches” but pay

particular attention to the likely path of the

falling branch.

WARNING: Do not stand directly

below a branch being cut. Keep

bystanders far away. Do not stand on

a ladder or other type of unstable

support while using the tool. Do not

use the tool near cable, electrical

power or telephone lines. Keep

10 feet away from all power lines.

(See Fig. ZB1-ZB4)

4. Position the Jaw perpendicularly on the

branch being cut.

NOTE: Maximum cutting capacity of

JAWSAW

®

is 4 inches.

5. One hand should ﬁrmly grip the push

handle of the Extension Pole. The other

hand should hold the metal portion of the

pole or the sliding handle on the pole (See

Fig. ZC).

6. Complete the cut as described in

“Trimming Branches”.

7. At the completion of the cut, be ready to

immediately support the weight of the

entire tool as the branch falls.

WARNING: Do not let the

JAWSAW

®

fall to the ground at

the completion of the cut, this may

damage the tool.

SAW MAINTENANCE AND KICKBACK

SAFETY

Follow maintenance instructions in this

manual. Proper cleaning and maintenance

of the Saw Chain (8) and Guide Bar (7), as

well as the JAWSAW

®

in general, can reduce

chances of kickback. Inspect and maintain saw

after each use. This will increase the service

life of your saw.

NOTE: Even with proper sharpening, risk of

kickback can increase with each sharpening.

MAINTENANCE AND

STORAGE OF JAWSAW

®

1. Remove the battery pack from the saw:

• When not in use.

• When transporting.

• When left unattended.

• Before servicing.

• Before cleaning.

• Before changing accessories or

attachments, such as Saw Chain and Guard

Bar.

2. Inspect the saw before and after each use

for:

• Any signs of damage

• Smooth action of push handle and

movement of bar.

• Adequate Chain Tension; you should be

able to lift the Saw Chain from the Guide

Bar no more than 1.6mm.

• Adequate chain lubrication.

3. Do not use the JAWSAW

®

, if:

• The Trigger Switch (2) or Lock Out Button

(3) is malfunctioning.

• The Rear (Push) Handle (1) does not

smoothly return under spring force.

• Any other damage which affects the safety

Cordless Limbing and Trimming Chain Saw EN

1918

or operation is evident.

4. Maintain the JAWSAW

®

with care and have

any damage or malfunction repaired by an

authorized service center:

• Never expose the JAWSAW

®

to rain.

• Keep Saw Chain sharp, clean, and

lubricated for better and safer performance.

• Follow steps outlined in this manual to

sharpen Saw Chain.

• Keep handles clean and free from oil.

• Keep all screws and nuts tight.

5. When servicing, use only identical

replacement parts.

6. When not in use, always store JAWSAW

®

• In a high or locked place, out of children’s

reach.

• In a dry place.

REPLACING SAW CHAIN/CHAIN BAR

Replace the Saw Chain when cutters are too

worn to sharpen or when the chain breaks.

Only use replacement chain noted in this

manual. Always include new drive Sprocket

(16) when replacing the Saw Chain. This will

maintain proper driving of chain. Inspect

Guide Bar (7) before sharpening chain. A worn

or damaged guide bar is unsafe. A worn or

damaged Guide Bar is unsafe, will damage the

Saw Chain, and will make cutting harder.

For Replacing the Guide Bar please refer to

CHANGING THE GUIDE BAR AND CHAIN

section in the Adjustment and Assembly

Instructions.

SHARPENING SAW CHAIN

WARNING: Remove the battery

pack from the saw before servicing.

• Cutting edges on chain are sharp.

Use protective gloves when handling

chain.

Keep Saw Chain sharp. Your saw will cut

faster and more safely. A dull Saw Chain will

cause undue Sprocket (16), Guide Bar (7), Saw

Chain, and motor wear. If you must force the

Saw Chain into wood and cutting creates only

sawdust with few large chips, then the Saw

Chain is dull.

LUBRICATING THE CHAINWHEEL

NOTE:

It is not necessary to remove the the chain or

bar when lubricating the chainwheel.

1. Clean the Guide Bar and chainwheel.

2. Using a grease gun, insert the tip of the

gun into the lubrication hole (h) and inject

grease until it appears at the outside edge

of the chainwheel tip (See Fig. AA).

3. You may need to rotate the chainwheel (i)

in order to grease all areas of the wheel.

To do this, pull the Saw Chain by hand to

rotate the chainwheel and align the parts of

the wheel that needs to be greased with the

lubrication hole. (See Fig. AA)

CLEANING

Regularly open the Chain Access Cover (9) and

remove any debris that has become trapped.

Regularly clean the ventilation slots with a

clean, dry paint brush.

To clean the tool, use only mild soap and a

damp cloth. Never let any liquid get inside the

tool and never immerse any part of the tool

into liquid.

TRANSPORTING

Always transport the tool with the Guide Bar

(7) and Saw Chain (8) inside the protection

guard.
