Cluttered areas invite injuries. Do not start cutting until you
have a clear work area, secure footing, and a planned retreat
path from the falling tree.

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. 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. Do not expose chain saw to rain or snow. Do not use
chain saw in damp or wet locations or while it is raining or snowing.
Do not use chain saw in the presence of flammable liquids or gases
or enclosed concentrations of dust. Cut only when visibility and light
are sufficient to see clearly

Watch what you are doing. Use common sense. Do not operate
chain saw when you are tired, ill, or under the influence of alcohol,
drugs, or medication. 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. When cutting through
wood, remember the chain saw cuts quickly and will continue its
downward or upward path. Stay out of its path.

Before further use of the chain saw, any part that is damaged
should be carefully checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting,
and any other conditions 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 otherwise indicated
elsewhere in this instruction manual. Have defective switches
replaced by authorized service center. Do not use chain saw if
switch does not turn it on and off. Do not operate a chain saw that
is damaged, improperly adjusted, or is not completely and securely
assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops moving when the
trigger is released.

WARNING:  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.

(1.) Grip Saw Firmly. Hold the chain saw firmly with both hands
when the motor is running. Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers
encircling the chain saw handles. Chain saw will pull forward when
cutting on the bottom edge of the bar, and push backward when
cutting along the top edge of the bar.
(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.) Don’t cut above shoulder height.
(6.) Use devices such as low kickback chain and reduced kickback
guide bars that reduce the risks associated with kickback.
(7.) Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the
manufacturer or the equivalent.
- The intended direction of fall.
- The natural lean of the branch.
- Any unusual heavy limb structure or decay.
- Surrounding trees and obstacles including overhead lines.
- The wind speed and direction.
- The safe distance between a branch and debris to be felled and
bystanders, buildings and other objects is at least 2 1/2 times the
length of the branch. Any bystander, building or object within this
distance is at risk from being struck by the falling branch.
- When cutting a limb that is under tension be aware of spring back.
When the tension in the wood fibres are released the spring loaded
limb may strike the operator and/or throw the tool out of control.
- Always wear suitable safety equipment such as non-skid
heavy-duty shoes, goggles, ear protection and gloves when
operating the tool.
-
Ensure someone is nearby (at a safe distance) in case of an accident.
- Do not attempt to operate the tool when in a tree, on a ladder or
standing on any other unstable support.
- Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
- Hold the tool firmly with both hands when the motor is running.
- Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Greasy oily
handles are slippery causing loss of control.
-
Do not let the moving chain contact any object at the tip of the guide bar.
- Keep your saw chain properly tensioned. Check tension at regular
intervals with the motor stopped and battery disconnected.
-
Begin and continue cutting only with the chain moving at full speed.
- Watch for shifting branches or other forces that could close a cut
and pinch or fall into the chain.
- Use extreme caution when re-entering a previous cut. Engage
spikes on lower jaw into wood and allow the chain to reach full
speed before proceeding with cut.
- Use of this tool for operation different to those intended could
result in hazardous situations. Cut wood only. Don’t use this tool
for purposes not intended - for example - Don’t use tool for cutting
4
(8.) Never let the moving chain contact any object at the tip of the
guide bar.
(9.) Keep the working area free from obstructions such as other
trees, branches, rocks, fences, stumps, etc. Eliminate or avoid
any obstruction that your saw chain could hit while you are cutting
through a particular log or branch.
(10.) Keep your saw chain sharp and properly tensioned. A loose
or dull chain can increase the chance of kickback. Check tension at
regular intervals with the motor stopped and battery removed, never
with the motor running.
(11.) Begin and continue cutting only with the chain moving at full
speed. If the chain is moving at a slower speed, there is a greater
chance for kickback to occur.
(12.) Cut one log at a time.
(13.) Use extreme caution when re-entering a previous cut. Engage
ribbed bumpers into wood and allow chain to reach full speed
before proceeding with cut.
(14.) Do not attempt plunge cuts or bore cuts.
(15.) Watch for shifting logs or other forces that could close a cut
and pinch or fall into chain.

plastic, masonry or non-wood building materials.
- If any debris gets caught with the guard or tool discontinue use,
disconnect power cord and clear debris.
- Worn chains and chain guide bars should be replaced.
- Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer.
- This saw is intended for infrequent use by homeowners, cottagers,
and campers, and for such general applications as clearing, pruning,
cutting firewood, etc. It is not intended for prolonged use. Prolonged
periods of operation can cause circulatory problems in the user’s
hands due to vibration. For such use, it may be appropriate to use a
saw having an anti-vibration feature.

Guard against kickback. Kickback is the upward motion of the guide bar
that occurs when the saw chain, at the nose of the guide bar, contacts an
object. Kickback can lead to dangerous loss of control of the chain saw.
WARNING: The following features are included on your
Alligator Lopper
TM
to help reduce the hazard of kickback;
however such features will not totally eliminate this dangerous
reaction. As a chain saw user do not rely only on safety devices.
You must follow all safety precautions, instructions, and
maintenance in this manual to help avoid kickback and other forces
which can result in serious injury.
- This has been designed specifically to cover the tip of the
chain bar where the danger zone for kickback occurs. In the event of
any kickback the guard also helps reduce the risk of the chain coming
into contact with the operator.
 - This has been designed with a small
radius tip which reduces the size of the kickback zone on the bar tip.
 - Designed with a contoured depth gauge
and guard link which deflect kickback force and allows wood to

IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES
1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery
pack is charged when the air temperature is between 60°F and 80°F
(16°- 27°C). DO NOT charge the battery pack in an air temperature
below +40°F (+4.5°C), or above +105°F (+40.5°C). This is important
and will prevent serious damage to the battery pack.
2. The charger and battery pack may become warm to touch
while charging. This is a normal condition, and does not indicate a
problem. To facilitate the cooling of the battery pack after use, avoid
placing the charger or battery pack in a warm environment such as
in a metal shed, or an uninsulated trailer.
3. If the battery pack does not charge properly:
a. Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other
appliance.
b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch
which turns power off when you turn out the lights.
c. Move charger and battery pack to a location where the
surrounding air temperature is approximately 60°F and 80°F
(16°- 27°C).
d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery pack and
charger to your local service center.
4. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to produce
sufficient power on jobs which were easily done previously. DO
NOT CONTINUE to use under these conditions. Follow the charging
procedure. You may also charge a partially used pack whenever
you desire with no adverse affect on the battery pack.
5. Foreign materials of a conductive nature such as, but not limited
to, steel wool, aluminum foil, or any buildup of metallic particles
should be kept away from charger cavities. Always unplug the
charger from the power supply when there is no battery pack in the
cavity. Unplug charger before attempting to clean.
6. Do not freeze or immerse charger in water or any other liquid.
WARNING: . Do not allow any liquid to get inside
charger. Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the
plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or cracks, return to a service

Check that the correct tension has
been set by lightly pulling on the
chain. The tension is correct when
the chain snaps back after being
pulled 1/8 inch (3 mm) away from
the guide bar. There should be no
“sag” between the guide bar and
chain on the underside.
Note: Do not over tension the chain
as this will lead to excessive wear
and reduce the life of the bar and
chain. It will also lead to reduced
product performance.
Note:
With first use and when the chain is new, check tension
frequently as a new chain stretches slightly.

A high quality bar and chain oil or
SAE30 weight motor oil should be
used for chain and bar lubrication.
The use of a vegetable based bar
and chain oil is recommended when
pruning trees. Never use waste oil
or very thick oil. These may damage
your chain saw.
- Before first use and every ten
minutes of use you must oil the
product with the recommended
chain oil. Open the oiling cover (4)
and insert the bottle into the oil filling hole (16) apply pressure to the
bottle once to dispense oil.
- This should be adequate for about 10 minutes of cutting
depending upon cutting speed and type of wood.
- The hole feeds the oil through to the chain onto the chain bar
and an excessive amount of oil applied to the unit could mean the
oil drips from the unit around the jaw area. This is normal and is
nothing to be concerned about.

To open the handles, slide the latch (5)
backwards and pull the handles apart.
Ensure a firm grip on the handles and
then squeeze both switch actuators to
switch the unit on.
Note: Both switches must be
activated for the product to be used.
Do not force the tool - allow it to do
the work. It will do a better and safer job at the speed for which it is
designed. Excessive force will stretch the chain.
If the saw chain or bar becomes jammed:
- Switch the tool off.
- Remove the battery from the tool.
- Open the cut with wedges to relieve the strain on the guide bar.
Do not try to wrench the saw free. Start a fresh cut. After use, close
the handles and slide the latch (5) forward to the lock position. The
handles should be locked during transportation and storage.

To get the best possible performance from your chain saw it is
important to keep the teeth of the chain sharp. Follow these helpful
tips for proper saw chain sharpening:
1. Remove the saw chain and use a chain vise when doing any
sharpening. See “Removing the saw chain and chain bar”.
2. For best results use a 4.5mm file and a file holder or filing guide
to sharpen your chain. This will ensure you always get the correct
sharpening angles.
3. Place the file holder flat on the top plate and depth gauge of the cutter.
4.  Keep the
correct top plate filing
angle line of 30° on your
file guide parallel with your
chain (file at 60° from chain
viewed from above).
5.  Sharpen cutters
on one side of the chain
first. File from the inside of
each cutter to the outside.
Then turn your saw chain
around and repeat the processes (2,3,4) for cutters on the
other side of the chain. Use a flat file to file the tops of the
rakers (portion of chain
link in front of the cutter)
so that they are about .025
in. below the tips of the
cutters.
6. Keep all cutter
lengths equal.
7. If damage is present on the chrome surface of the top plates
or side plates, file back until such damage is removed.
CAUTION:
After filing, the cutter will be sharp, use extra
caution
during this process.
NOTE:
Each time the chain is sharpened, it loses some of the
low kickback qualities and extra caution should be used. It is
recommended that a chain be sharpened no more than four times.
Storage
- When the tool will not be used for several months, wipe any
metal components with oil.
- Store the tool in a secure and dry location. The storage
temperature must always remain in the range of 41°F (+5 °C) to
104°F (+40 °C). Place the product on a level safe location.
IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY,
repairs, maintenance and adjustment should be performed
by authorized service centers or other qualified service
organizations, always using identical replacement parts.

Être extrêmement prudent lors de la coupe de broussailles ou de
jeunes arbres, car les branches élancées peuvent se coincer dans
la chaîne et être projetées vers vous ou vous déséquilibrer. Lors
de la coupe d’une branche maîtresse sous tension, prendre garde
à la détente lorsque la tension contenue dans les fibres de bois se
relâche et que la branche risque de frapper l’utilisateur. Protéger
la scie à chaîne contre la pluie et la neige. Ne pas utiliser la scie à
chaîne dans des endroits humides ou mouillés ou sous la pluie ou
la neige. Ne pas utiliser la scie à chaîne en présence de liquides ou
de gaz inflammables ou de poussières concentrées dans un milieu
clos. Couper uniquement s’il est possible de bien voir en présence

d’alcool, de drogues ou de médicaments. Éloigner toute partie du
corps de la chaîne de l’outil lorsque le moteur est en marche. Avant
de démarrer la scie à chaîne, s’assurer que la chaîne est dégagée,
sans aucun contact avec des objets. Lors de la coupe de bois, se
souvenir que la scie à chaîne coupe rapidement et poursuivra son
parcours vers le bas ou le haut. Demeurer hors du parcours de l’outil.

Avant toute utilisation ultérieure de la scie à chaîne, toute pièce
endommagée doit être examinée soigneusement afin d’assurer
un fonctionnement adéquat selon sa fonction prévue. Vérifier
l’alignement des pièces mobiles, la présence de grippage des
pièces mobiles, de rupture de pièces, l’assemblage et tout autre
problème pouvant nuire au fonctionnement de l’outil. Un dispositif
de protection endommagé, ou toute autre pièce endommagée, doit
être réparé ou remplacé adéquatement par un centre de réparation
autorisé à moins d’un avis contraire indiqué dans le présent
mode d’emploi. Faire remplacer les interrupteurs défectueux à un
centre de réparation autorisé. Ne pas utiliser la scie à chaîne si
l’interrupteur ne fonctionne pas. Ne pas utiliser une scie à chaîne
endommagée, incorrectement réglée ou qui n’est pas entièrement

(1.) Saisir fermement la scie à chaîne. Tenir fermement la scie
à chaîne avec les deux mains lorsque le moteur est en marche.
Utiliser une prise ferme avec les pouces et les doigts et encercler
les poignées de la scie à chaîne. La scie à chaîne imprimera un
mouvement avant lors de la coupe avec la partie inférieure du
guide-chaîne et un mouvement arrière lors de coupe avec la partie
supérieure du guide-chaîne.
(2.) Ne pas trop se pencher.
(3.) Conserver son équilibre en tout temps.
(4.) Ne pas laisser l’extrémité du guide-chaîne frapper un billot, une
branche, le sol ou tout autre obstruction.
(5.) Ne pas couper au-dessus de la hauteur des épaules.
(6.) Utiliser des dispositifs comme des chaînes à faible effet de
rebond et des guides-chaîne à faible effet de rebond pour réduire
les risques associés à l’effet de rebond.
(7.) Utiliser uniquement des guides-chaîne et des chaînes de
rechange précisés par le fabricant ou son équivalent.
(8.) Ne pas mettre en contact la chaîne et tout objet se trouvant à
l’extrémité du guide-chaîne.
(9.) Tenir la zone de travail dégagée et exempte d’obstructions
comme d’autres arbres, branches, roches, clôtures, souches, etc.
Éliminer ou éviter toute obstruction que la scie à chaîne pourrait
frapper lors d’une coupe d’un billot ou d’une branche en particulier.
(10.) Maintenir la chaîne de la scie bien affûtée et tendue
correctement. Une chaîne lâche ou émoussée peut augmenter le
risque d’effet de rebond. Vérifier la tension à intervalles réguliers,
avec le moteur hors tension et sans le bloc-piles, jamais avec le
moteur en marche.
(11.) Commencer et poursuivre la coupe uniquement lorsque la
chaîne fonctionne à plein régime. Si la chaîne tourne à un régime
plus lent, le risque d’un effet de rebond est plus élevé.
(12.) Tronçonner un seul billot à la fois.
(13.) Faire très attention lorsque vous recommencez à scier à partir
d’une entaille déjà entamée. Appuyer les butées cannelées contre
le tronc et laisser la chaîne atteindre son plein régime avant de
poursuivre la coupe.
(14.) Ne pas essayer de coupes en plongée ou le perçage de trous.
(15.) Prendre garde au déplacement des billots ou à d’autres forces
qui pourraient faire refermer une entaille et pincer la chaîne ou qui
pourraient tomber sur celle-ci.
