plate of chain saw.

6. Use only extension cords marked for outdoor

use. See Extension Cord Requirements.

7. Do not operate chain saw

• while under the inﬂuence of alcohol, medi-

cation, or drugs

• in rain or in damp or wet areas

• where highly ﬂammable liquids or gases are

present

• if saw is damaged, adjusted wrong, or not

fully and securely assembled

• if trigger does not turn saw on and off. Chain

must stop moving when you release trigger.

Have faulty switch replaced by authorized

service center (see Technical Service).

• while in a hurry

• while in tree or on a ladder unless trained to

do so

8. Wear snug-ﬁtting clothes when operating

chain saw. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewelry. They can get caught in moving saw

chain.

9. Wear the following safety gear when operating

chain saw.

WARNING: When using an electric

chain saw, basic safety precautions

should always be followed to reduce

the risk of ﬁ re, electric shock, and

injury to persons, including the fol-

lowing:

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

Make sure you read and understand all

instructions in Important Safety Infor-

mation. Improper use of this chain saw

can cause severe injury or death from

ﬁre, electrical shock, body contact with

moving chain, or falling wood.

• heavy-duty gloves (wear rubber gloves

when working outdoors)

• steel-toed safety footwear with non-skid

soles

• eye protection such as safety glasses,

goggles, or face screen

• safety hard hat

• ear mufﬂers or ear plugs

• hair covering to contain long hair

• face or dust mask (if working in dusty

areas)

10. Before cutting, always provide the follow-

ing:

• clear work area

• secure footing

• planned retreat path from falling tree

11. Inspect tree before cutting down. Make sure there

are no dead limbs or branches that may fall on

you.

12. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this saw

has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than

the other). This plug will ﬁ t in a polarized

outlet only one way. If the plug does not ﬁ t

fully in the outlet of your extension cord,

reverse the plug. If it still does not ﬁ t, a polar-

ized extension cord will be necessary. Do not

change the plug in any way.

WHILE OPERATING SAW

1. Stay alert. Use common sense while operating

chain saw.

2. Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas invite

injuries.

3. Be aware of extension cord while operating

chain saw. Be careful not to trip over cord.

Keep cord away from chain and operator at

all times.

4. Keep children, animals, and bystanders away

from chain saw and extension cord. Only

chain saw user should be in work area.

5. Do not cut down a tree unless you are trained

or have expert help.

6. If two or more persons perform bucking and

felling operations at the same time, provide

plenty of distance between operations. Provide

distance of at least twice the height of tree

being felled.

7. Secure wood you are cutting by using clamps

or chocks.

8. Grip chain saw ﬁrmly with both hands. Never

operate chain saw with one hand. Never use

hand guard as handle.

9. Keep ﬁnger off trigger until ready to make

cut.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING: 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 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.

KICKBACK

10. Before starting chain saw, make sure chain is

not touching anything.

11. To guard against electrical shock, avoid body

contact with grounded objects such as pipes,

fences, and metal posts.

12. Keep all parts of body away from chain when

saw is running.

13. Do not force chain saw while cutting. Apply

light pressure. It will do the job better and

safer at the rate for which it was intended.

14. Cut small brush and saplings with extreme

care. Slender material may catch in chain and

be whipped toward you. This could also pull

you off balance.

15. When cutting limb or tree trunk that is under

tension, use extreme caution. Be alert for

wood springing back. When wood tension is

released, limb could spring back and strike

operator causing severe injury or death.

16. Carry chain saw from one place to another

• with saw stopped and unplugged

• by holding front handle (never use hand

guard as handle)

• with ﬁnger off trigger

• with guide bar and chain to rear

Kickback Safety Devices On This

Saw

This saw has a low-kickback chain and reduced

kickback guide bar. Both items reduce the chance

of kickback. Kickback can still occur with this

saw.

Follow assembly instructions. Do not remove

front hand guard. Do not replace front hand guard

with substitute.

The following steps will reduce the risk of kick-

back.

• 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 or cut above shoulder

height.

• Keep solid footing and balance at all

times.

• Stand slightly to left side of saw. This keeps

your body from being in direct line with

chain.

WARNING: Some dust created by

power sanding, sawing, grinding, drill-

ing, and other construction activities

contains chemicals known (to the state

of California) to cause cancer, birth

defects, or other reproductive harm.

Some examples of these chemicals

are:

• lead from lead-based paints

• crystalline silica from bricks and ce-

ment and other masonry products

• arsenic and chromium from chemi-

cally-treated lumber

Your risk from these exposures varies,

depending on how often you do this

type of work. To reduce your exposure

to these chemicals: work in a well ven-

tilated area, and work with approved

safety equipment, such as those dust

masks that are specially designed to

ﬁ lter out microscopic particles.

WARNING: This product contains

chemicals known to the State of Cali-

fornia to cause cancer or birth defects,

or other reproductive harm.

CUTTING WITH THE CHAIN SAW

1. Connect saw to extension cord. Connect exten-

sion cord to power supply.

2. Make sure section of log to be cut is not laying

on ground. This will keep chain from touch-

ing ground as it cuts through log. Touching

ground with moving chain will dull chain.

3. Use both hands to grip saw. Always use left

hand to grip front handle and right hand to

grip rear handle. Use ﬁrm grip. Thumbs and

ﬁngers must wrap around saw handles (see

Figure 12).

4. Make sure your footing is ﬁrm. Keep feet

apart. Divide your weight evenly on both

feet.

5. When ready to make a cut, push the lockout

button completely forward with the right

thumb and squeeze the trigger (see Figure 12).

This will turn saw on. Releasing trigger will

turn saw off. Make sure saw is running at full

speed before starting a cut.

6. When starting a cut, place moving chain against

wood. Hold saw ﬁrmly in place to avoid possible

bouncing or skating (sideways movement) of

saw.

7. Guide saw using light pressure. Do not force

saw. The motor will overload and can burn

out. It will do the job better and safer at the

rate for which it was intended.

8. Remove saw from a cut with saw running

at full speed. Stop saw by releasing trigger.

Make sure chain has stopped before setting

saw down.

9. Practice until you can maintain a steady, even

cutting rate.

Felling Cut

Felling is the process of cutting down a tree. Make

sure your footing is ﬁrm. Keep feet apart. Divide

your weight evenly on both feet. Follow directions

below to fell a tree.

Before Felling a Tree

1. Before felling, inspect tree. Make sure there

are no dead limbs or branches that may fall

on you. Study natural lean of tree, location of

larger branches, and wind direction. This will

help you judge which way tree will fall.

2. Clear work area around tree.

3. Plan and clear a retreat path before felling.

Make retreat path opposite to planned direc-

tion of fall of tree and at 45° angle (see Figure

13).

WARNING:

• Avoid kickback. Kickback can result

in severe injury or death. See Kickback

to avoid risk of kickback.

• Do not fell a tree without ample skill

or expert help.

• Keep children, animals, and bystand-

ers away from area when felling a

tree.

• If two or more persons perform

bucking and felling operations at

the same time, provide ample dis-

tance between operations. Provide

distance of at least twice the height

of tree being felled.

WARNING: When felling a tree, be

aware of your surroundings. Do not

endanger any person, strike utility

lines, or cause property damage. If

tree strikes utility lines, contact utility

company at once.

FELLING A TREE (Cutting Down a Tree)

Figure 13 - Retreat Path From Tree

OPERATING CHAIN SAW

Figure 14 - Felling A Tree

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

and wire from tree where you will make felling

cuts.

WARNING: Do not cut all the way

through tree. Leave about two inches

of tree diameter uncut directly behind

felling notch (see Figure 14). This

uncut portion acts as a hinge. The

hinge helps keep tree from twisting

and falling in wrong direction.

B) Felling Cut

1. Make felling cut two inches higher than lower

notch cut and on opposite side of tree (see Figure

14). Keep felling cut parallel to lower notch

cut.

5. Stay on uphill side when felling tree. Tree

could roll or slide downhill after falling.

Felling Procedure

A) Felling Notch

A properly placed felling notch will determine

direction tree will fall. Place felling notch on

side of tree in direction you want tree to fall (see

Figure 14). Follow directions below to create a

felling notch.

1. Make lower notch cut as close to ground as

possible. Hold saw so guide bar is horizontal.

Cut 1/3 the diameter of tree trunk (see Figure

14). Note: Always make this horizontal lower

notch cut ﬁrst. If you make this cut second,

tree can pinch chain or guide bar.

2. Start upper notch cut the same distance above

ﬁrst cut as ﬁrst cut is deep.

Example: If lower notch cut is eight inches deep,

start upper notch cut eight inches above it. Cut

downward at 45° angle. The upper notch cut

should meet end of lower notch cut (see Figure

14).

Remove tree trunk wedge created by notching

cuts.

Limbing is removing branches from a fallen tree.

Make sure your footing is ﬁrm. Keep feet apart.

Divide your weight evenly on both feet. Do not

remove larger limbs under tree that support log

off ground. Remove each limb with one cut (see

Figure 15). Clear cut limbs from work area often.

This will help maintain a safe work area.

Make sure you start your cut where limb will

not pinch saw during cutting. To avoid pinching,

start cut on freely hanging limbs from above

limb. Start cut on limbs under tension from under

limb. If pinch occurs, turn saw off, lift limb, and

remove saw.

WARNING: When cutting limb that

is under tension, use extreme caution.

Be alert for wood springing back.

When wood tension is released, limb

could spring back and strike operator

causing severe injury or death.

LIMBING A TREE

WARNING: Avoid kickback. Kick-

back can result in severe injury or

death. See Kickback to avoid risk of

kickback.

WARNING: Be alert for falling

overhead limbs. Watch your footing

while exiting area.

Figure 15 - Limbing A Tree

WARNING: Avoid kickback.

Kickback can result in severe injury

or death. See Kickback to avoid risk

of kickback.

WARNING:

• If on slope, make sure log will not

roll down hill. Secure log by us-

ing 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.

• 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, leg, or foot.

• While cutting log, never allow an-

other person to hold log.

• Turn off and unplug saw before mov-

ing from one place to another.

Bucking a log is cutting a log into sections. Make

sure your footing is ﬁrm. Keep feet apart. Divide

your weight evenly on both feet. When possible,

raise log or section off ground. Do this by using

limbs, logs, chocks, etc.

When cutting through log, maintain control by

reducing cutting pressure near end of cut. Do not

relax your grip on chain saw handles. Do not let

moving chain touch ground. Ground will dull

moving chain. After cutting through log, release

trigger to turn saw off before moving saw.

Follow directions below to buck a log.

Entire Length Of Log On Ground

Cut log from top (see Figure 16).

2. Cut towards notch.

3. As felling cut nears hinge, tree should begin to fall.

Note: If needed, drive wedges into felling cut to

control direction of fall. If tree settles back and

pinches chain, drive wedges into felling cut to

remove saw. Only use wedges made of wood,

plastic, or aluminum. Never use wedge made of

steel. This could cause kickback and damage to

chain.

4. When tree begins to fall, quickly

• remove saw from felling cut

• release trigger to turn saw off

• put saw down

• exit area using retreat path

CARE OF GUIDE BAR

Uneven bar wear causes most guide bar problems.

Incorrect sharpening of chain cutter and depth

gauge settings often cause this. When bar wears

unevenly, it widens guide bar groove (see Figure

20). This causes chain clatter and rivet popping.

Saw will not cut straight. Replace guide bar if

this occurs.

Inspect guide bar before sharpening chain. A worn

or damaged guide bar is unsafe. A worn or damaged

guide bar will damage chain. It will also make cut-

ting harder.

CLEANING SAW BODY

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

WARNING: When cleaning saw

body,

• do not submerge saw in any liq-

uids

• do not use products that contain

ammonia, chlorine, or abrasives

• do not use chlorinated cleaning

solvents, carbon tetrachloride,

kerosene, or gasoline

WARNING: Unplug chain saw from

power source before servicing. Severe

injury or death could occur from electri-

cal shock or body contact with moving

chain.

WARNING: Cutting edges on chain

are sharp. Use protective gloves when

handling chain.

Keep saw body clean. Use a soft cloth dampened

with a mild soap and water mixture. Wipe saw body

to clean.

NOTICE: Below are instructions for

servicing your chain saw. Any ser-

vicing not mentioned below should

be done by an authorized service

center.

Normal Guide Bar Maintenance

1. Remove guide bar from chain saw.

2. Remove sawdust from guide bar groove peri-

odically. Use putty knife or wire (see Figure

21).

3. Clean oil slots after each day of use.

4. Remove burrs from sides of guide bar. Use

ﬂat ﬁle to make side edges square.

Replace guide bar when

• bar is bent or cracked

• inside groove of bar is badly worn

Note: When replacing guide bar, see Replacement

Parts and Accessories for proper bar.

WARNING: Unplug chain saw from

power source before servicing. Severe

injury or death could occur from electri-

cal shock or body contact with moving

chain.

WARNING: Cutting edges on chain

are sharp. Use protective gloves when

handling chain.

SHARPENING SAW CHAIN

Keep chain sharp. Your saw will cut faster and

more safely. A dull chain will cause undue sprock-

et, guide bar, chain, and motor wear. If you must

force chain into wood and cutting creates only

sawdust with few large chips, chain is dull.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

4. Hold ﬁle guide level. Make sure 30° mark

on ﬁle guide is parallel to center of guide bar

(see Figure 22). This will insure that you ﬁle

cutters at 30° angle.

5. File from inside towards outside of cutter

until sharp. Only ﬁle in this one direction (see

Figure 22). Note: Two or three strokes with

ﬁle should sharpen cutter.

6. After each cutter is sharpened, move chain

forward to sharpen next cutter. File all cutters

on one side of chain.

7. Move to other side of chain and repeat pro-

cess.

Filing Cutter Depth Gauges

The cutter depth gauge clearance is reduced as

cutters are sharpened. After every second or third

sharpening, reset cutter depth gauges.

1. Place depth gauge tool (.025") ﬁrmly across

top of two cutters. Make sure depth gauge

enters slot in depth gauge tool (see Figure

24).

2. Use medium ﬂat ﬁle. File depth gauge level

with depth gauge tool.

3. Remove depth gauge tool. With ﬂat ﬁle, round

off front corner of cutter depth gauge (see

Figure 25).

After several hand ﬁlings, have authorized service

center or sharpening service machine sharpen

chain. This will insure even ﬁling.

Replacing Saw Chain

Replace chain when cutters are too worn to sharpen

or when chain breaks. Only use replacement chain

noted in this manual. Always include new drive

sprocket when replacing chain. This will maintain

proper driving of chain. Note: For proper chain

and drive sprocket, see Replacement Parts and

Accessories.

Items Needed to Sharpen Chain

Purchase these items from your local dealer, hard-

ware store, or chain saw supplies outlet.

• 5/32" round ﬁle

• Depth gauge tool

• File guide

• Vise

• Medium sized ﬂat ﬁle

Sharpening Cutters

Use ﬁle guide for 30° ﬁling.

1. Adjust chain for proper tension (see Saw

Chain Tension Adjustment).

2. Clamp guide bar in vise to hold saw steady.

Note: Do not clamp chain.

3. Press 5/32" round ﬁle (attached to ﬁle guide)

into groove between top plate and depth gauge

on chain. File guide should rest on both top

plate and depth gauge (see Figure 23). Note:
