PRODUCT SAFETY

WARNING: Some dust created by

power sanding, sawing, grinding,

drilling 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 cement

and other masonry products;

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-

treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies,

depending on how often you do this type

of work. To reduce your exposure to these

chemical:

• Work in a well ventilated area,

• And work with approved safety equipment,

such as those dust masks that are specially

designed to ﬁlter out microscopic particles.

WARNING: This product can

expose you to chemicals including

lead and Di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate

(DEHP) which are known to the State of

California to cause cancer and birth

defects or other reproductive harm. For

more information go to www.

P65Warnings.ca.gov.

GENERAL POWER TOOL

SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING: Read all safety warnings

and instructions. Failure to follow

the warnings and instructions may result in

electric shock, ﬁre and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for

future reference.

The term power tool in the warnings refer to

your electric (corded) power tool or battery-

operated (cordless) power tool.

1. WORK AREA SAFETY

a) Keep work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b) Do not operate power tools in

explosive atmospheres, such as in the

presence of ﬂammable liquids, gases

or dust. Power tools create sparks which

may ignite the dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders

away while operating a power tool.

Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a) Power tool plugs must match the

outlet. Never modify the plug in

any way. Do not use any adapter

plugs with grounded power tools.

Unmodiﬁed plugs and matching outlets

will reduce risk of electric shock.

b) Avoid body contact with grounded

surfaces such as pipes, radiators,

ranges and refrigerators. There is an

increased risk of electric shock if your body

is grounded.

c) Do not expose power tools to rain or

wet conditions. Water entering a power

tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use

the cord for carrying, pulling or

unplugging the power tool. Keep cord

away from heat, oil, sharp edges or

moving parts. Damaged or entangled

cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e) When operating a power tool

outdoors, use an extension cord

suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord

suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of

electric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp

location is unavoidable, use a ground

fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)

protected supply. Use of an GFCI

reduces the risk of electric shock.

3. PERSONAL SAFETY

a) Stay alert, watch what you are

doing and use common sense when

operating a power tool. Do not use

a power tool while you are tired or

under the inﬂuence of drugs, alcohol

or medication. A moment of inattention

while operating power tools may result in

serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment.

Electric Chain Saw EN

Always wear eye protection. Protective

equipment such as dust mask, non-

skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing

protection used for appropriate conditions

will reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure

the switch is in the off-position before

connecting to power source and/or

battery pack, picking up or carrying

the tool. Carrying power tools with your

ﬁnger on the switch or energizing power

tools that have the switch on invites

accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench

before turning the power tool on. A

wrench or a key left attached to a rotating

part of the power tool may result in

personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper

footing and balance at all times. This

enables better control of the power tool in

unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose

clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair,

clothing and gloves away from

moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or

long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the

connection of dust extraction and

collection facilities, ensure these are

connected and properly used. Use of dust

collection can reduce dust-related hazards.

4. POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

a) Do not force the power tool. Use

the correct power tool for your

application. The correct power tool will

do the job better and safer at the rate for

which it was designed.

b) Do not use the power tool if the

switch does not turn it on and off.

Any power tool that cannot be controlled

with the switch is dangerous and must be

repaired.

c) Disconnect the plug from the power

source and/or the battery pack from

the power tool before making any

adjustments, changing accessories,

or storing power tools. Such preventive

safety measures reduce the risk of starting

the power tool accidentally.

d) Store idle power tools out of the

reach of children and do not allow

persons unfamiliar with the power

tool or these instructions to operate

the power tool. Power tools are

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e) Maintain power tools. Check for

misalignment or binding of moving

parts, breakage of parts and any other

condition that may affect the power

tools operation. If damaged, have the

power tool repaired before use. Many

accidents are caused by poorly maintained

power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

Properly maintained cutting tools with

sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind

and are easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories and

tool bits etc., in accordance with

these instructions and in the manner

intended for the particular type of

power tool, taking into account the

working conditions and the work to

be performed. Use of the power tool for

operations different from those intended

could result in a hazardous situation.

5. SERVICE

a) Have your power tool serviced by

a qualiﬁed repair person using only

identical replacement parts. This will

ensure that the safety of the power tool is

maintained.

CHAIN SAW SAFETY

WARNINGS

1. Keep all parts of the body away from

the saw chain when the chain saw is

operating. Before you start the chain

saw, make sure the saw chain is not

contacting anything. A moment of

inattention while operating chain saws may

cause entanglement of your clothing or

body with the saw chain.

2. Always hold the chain saw with your

right hand on the rear handle and your

Electric Chain Saw EN

left hand on the front handle. Holding

the chain saw with a reversed hand

conﬁguration increases the risk of personal

injury and should never be done.

3. Hold the power tool by insulated

gripping surfaces only, because the

saw chain may contact hidden wiring

or its own cord. Saw chains contacting

a live wire may make exposed metal parts

of the power tool live and could give the

operator an electric shock.

4. Wear safety glasses and hearing

protection. Further protective

equipment for head, hands, legs

and feet is recommended. Adequate

protective clothing will reduce personal

injury by ﬂying debris or accidental contact

with the saw chain.

5. Do not operate a chain saw in a tree.

Operation of a chain saw while up in a tree

may result in personal injury.

6. 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.

7. When cutting a limb that is under

tension be alert for spring back. When

the tension in the wood ﬁbers is released the

spring loaded limb may strike the operator

and/or throw the chain saw out of control.

8. Use extreme caution when cutting

brush and saplings. The slender material

may catch the saw chain and be whipped

toward you or pull you off balance.

9. Carry the chain saw by the front

handle with the chain saw switched

off and away from your body. When

transporting or storing the chain saw

always apply the guide bar cover.

Proper handling of the chain saw will

reduce the likelihood of accidental contact

with the moving saw chain.

10.Follow instructions for lubricating,

chain tensioning and changing

accessories. Improperly tensioned

or lubricated chain may either break or

increase the chance for kickback.

11.Keep handles dry, clean, and free from

oil and grease. Greasy, oily handles

are slippery causing loss of control.

12.

Cut wood only. Do not use chain

saw 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.

13. Recommendation for the use of a residual

current device with a tripping current of 30

mA or less.

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.

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:

- 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.

- 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.

- Only use replacement bars and

chains speciﬁed by the manufacturer.

Incorrect replacement bars and chains may

Electric Chain Saw EN

cause chain breakage and/or kickback.

- Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening

and maintenance instructions for the

saw chain. Decreasing the depth gauge

height can lead to increased kickback.

SAFETY RULES FOR EXTENSION CORD

Make sure your extension cord is in good

condition. When using an extension cord,

be sure to use one heavy enough to carry

the current your product will draw. An

undersized extension cord will cause a drop

in line voltage resulting in loss of power and

overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to

use depending on cord length and nameplate

ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next

heavier gage. The smaller the gage number,

the heavier the cord. To reduce the risk of

disconnection of appliance cord from the

extension cord during operating:

I) Make a knot as shown in Figure 1; or

II) Use one of the plug-receptacle retaining

straps or connectors described in this manual.

INSTRUCTIONS CONCERNING THE

PROPER TECHNIQUES FOR BASIC

FELLING, LIMBING, AND CROSS-

CUTTING

1. Felling a tree

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.

The chain saw operator should keep on the

uphill side of the terrain as the tree is likely to

roll or slide downhill after it is felled.

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 as illustrated in Figure I.

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.

Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, staples

and wire from the tree.

2. Notching undercut

Make the notch 1/3 the diameter of the

tree, perpendicular to the direction of falls

as illustrated in Figure I. Make the lower

horizontal notching cut (W) ﬁrst. This will help

to avoid pinching either the saw chain or the

guide bar when the second notch (X) is being

made.

Electric Chain Saw EN

3. Felling back cut

Make the felling back cut (Y) at least 50 mm

higher than the horizontal notching cut as

illustrated in Figure I. 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 wood keeps the

tree from twisting and falling in the wrong

direction. Do not cut through the hinge.

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 and use wedges of wood, plastic or

aluminium (Z) to open the cut and drop the

tree along the desired line of fall (

When the tree begins to fall remove the chain

saw from the cut, stop the motor, put the

chain saw down, then use the retreat path

planned (

). Be alert for overhead limbs

falling and watch your footing.

4. Limbing a tree

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 in Figure 3. Branches under tension

should be cut from the bottom up to avoid

binding the chain saw.

5. 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. Follow the simple directions for easy

cutting.

When the log is supported along its entire

length as illustrated in Figure 4, it is cut from

the top (overbuck) , avoid contacting ground

as this will greatly reduce the chain sharpness.

ASSEMBLY

WARNING! Do not connect the

chain saw to the power supply

before it is completely assembled.

Always use gloves when handling the

chain.

CHAIN AND GUIDE BAR ASSEMBLY

1. Unpack all parts carefully.

2. Place the chain saw on a solid, level

surface.

3. Use only genuine WORX chains or

those recommended for Guide Bar.

4. Slide the Chain (8) in the slot around the

Guide bar (7). Ensure the Chain is in correct

running direction by comparing it to the

chain icon on the guide bar, or referring to

the Chain Direction Symbol found on the

saw body. Ensure the Bar Tensioning Plate

(18) is facing outwards. (See ﬁg. A)

5. Fit the Chain onto the Drive Sprocket (13),

so that the Fastening Bar Bolt (17) and

the two Bar Locating Tabs (15) on the Bar

Clamp (21) ﬁt into the keyway of of the

opening on the Guide Bar (7).

6. Check to see if all parts are seated properly

(See Fig. C1).

7. Fit the Chain Cover (11) ensure that the

Chain Catch (20) slides properly into the

Chain Cover (See Fig. C2).

8. Tighten the Chain Cover by turning the

Chain Tensioning Knob (10) clockwise until

it is tight (See Fig. D).

WARNING: The chain is not yet

tensioned. Tensioning the chain

applies as described under

“TENSIONING CHAIN”. The chain now

needs to be inspected to make sure it is

properly tensioned.

TENSIONING CHAIN

NOTE: New saw chains will stretch. Check

chain tension frequently when ﬁrst used and

tighten when the Chain (8) becomes loose

around the Guide Bar (7).

WARNING:

• Unplug chain saw from power source

before adjusting saw chain tension.

• Cutting edges on chain are sharp.

Use protective gloves when handling

chain.

• Maintain proper chain tension always.

A loose chain will increase the risk

of kickback. A loose chain may jump

out of guide bar groove. This may

injure operator and damage chain. A

loose chain will cause chain, bar, and

sprocket to wear rapidly.

1. Place the chain saw on any suitable ﬂat

surface.

2. Turn the Chain Tensioning Knob (10)

clockwise until it is hand tight.

NOTE: The tension is automatically

increased while the Chain Tensioning Knob

(10) is being turned in a clockwise direction.

The built-in ratchet mechanism prevents

the chain tension from loosening. (See Fig.

E2).

3. Double check the tension set by the

automatic Chain Tensioning Knob. The

correct chain tension is reached when the

Chain (8) can be raised approx. half the

drivelink depth from the Guide Bar (7) in

the center. This should be done by using

one hand to raise the chain against the

weight of the machine. (See Fig. E1)

NOTE: The Chain (8) is properly tensioned

when it can be lifted off of the Guide Bar

(7) and the drivelink is within the rail of the

Guide Bar (7).

Use a screwdriver to move chain around

Guide Bar to ensure kinks do not exist. The

chain should rotate freely (See Fig. E3).

4. The Chain will stretch while cutting and

lose proper tension. When the chain

becomes loose, completely unscrew

the Chain Tensioning Knob or turn

the knob around three full turns in a

counterclockwise direction, then retighten

the Chain Tensioning Knob to properly

reset the chain tension by repeating Step

1-3 listed above.

LUBRICATION

IMPORTANT: The chain saw is

not supplied ﬁlled with oil. It is

essential to ﬁll with oil before use. Never

Electric Chain Saw EN

operate the chain saw without chain

oil or at an empty oil tank level, as this

will result in extensive damage to the

product.

NOTE: Chain life and cutting capacity depend

on optimum lubrication. Therefore, the chain

is automatically oiled during operation.

FILLING OIL TANK:

1. Set chain saw on any suitable surface with

Oil Filler Cap (4) facing upward.

2. Clean area around the Oil Filler Cap (4)

with cloth and unscrew the cap by turning

it counter clockwise.

3. Add bar and chain oil until reservoir is full.

4. Avoid dirt or debris entering oil tank, reﬁt

Oil Filler Cap (4) and tighten by turning

clockwise until hand tight.

IMPORTANT: To allow venting of

the oil reservoir, small breather

channels are provided between the oil

ﬁller cap and the strainer, to prevent

leakage ensure machine is left in a

horizontal position (Oil Filler Cap (4)

uppermost) when not in use.

It is important to use only the

recommended standard bar and chain

oil (Grade: ISO VG32) to avoid damage

to the chain saw. This can be found at

the location you purchased this saw or

your local hardware store. Never use

recycled/old oil. Use of non approved oil

will void the warranty.

CHECKING THE AUTOMATIC OILER

Proper functioning of the automatic oiler can

be checked by running the chain saw and

pointing the tip of the Guide bar (7) towards

a piece of cardboard or paper on the ground.

If an increasing oil pattern develops on the

cardboard, the automatic oiler is operating

ﬁne. If there is no oil pattern, despite a full

oil reservoir, contact WORX customer service

agent or WORX approved service agent.

CAUTION: Do not touch the ground

with the chain. Ensure safety

clearance of 12 inches.

OPERATION

1. SWITCHING ON AND OFF (See Fig. F)

ATTENTION: Check the voltage and

current supply: The voltage and

current supply must comply with the

ratings on the product plate.

For switching on the tool, press the Lock-

Out Button (3), then fully press the On/Off

Switch (2) and hold in this position. The Lock-

Out Button can now be released.

For switching off, release the On/Off Switch.

After sawing, do not stop the chain saw by

activating the Chain Stop Lever (Hand Guard)

(5).

2. CHAIN STOP LEVER (HAND GUARD)

(See Fig. G1)

The Chain Stop Lever (Hand Guard) (5) is a

safety mechanism that causes the Chain (8)

to quickly stop. In many cases when kickback

occurs the operator’s hand strikes the Chain

Stop Lever (Hand Guard) causing it to

activate. When activated, the moving Chain

quickly stops.

The following function check should be

carried out at regular intervals. Push the

Chain Stop Lever (Hand Guard) (5) forwards

(position ) and start the chain saw. The Chain

should not move. To deactivate the Chain Stop

Lever, release the On/Off Switch (2) and pull

the Chain Stop Lever (Hand Guard) backwards

(position ) (See Fig. G1).

CUTTING

IMPORTANT: Is the oil reservoir ﬁlled?

Check the Oil Level Window (19) prior to

starting and regularly during operation. Reﬁll

oil when oil level is low. A full oil tank will last

approx. 20 minutes depending on sawing

intensity and stops (See Fig. G2).

Check recent replaced chain tension about

every 10 minutes during operation.

1. Connect saw to extension cord. Connect

extension cord to power supply (See Fig.

G3).

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

laying on the ground. This will keep the

Chain (8) from touching the ground as it

cuts through the log. Touching the ground

while the Chain is moving is dangerous

Electric Chain Saw EN

and will dull the Chain.

3. Use both hands to grip saw. Always use

left hand to grip front handle and right

hand to grip rear handle. Use a ﬁrm grip.

Thumbs and ﬁngers must wrap around

saw handles (See Fig. H).

4. Make sure your footing is ﬁrm. Keep

feet-shoulder width apart. Distribute your

weight evenly on both feet.

5. When ready to make a cut, push the Lock-

Out Button (3) completely in with the right

thumb and squeeze the trigger. This will

turn saw on. Releasing the trigger will turn

the saw off. Make sure the saw is running

at full speed before starting a cut.

6. When starting a cut, slowly place moving

chain against the wood. The wood should

be as close to the sawbody as possible.

Hold saw ﬁrmly in place to avoid possible

bouncing or skating (sideways movement)

of saw.

7. Guide the saw using light pressure and

do not put excessive force on the saw,

letting the saw do its work. 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 the saw from a cut with the saw

running at full speed. Stop the saw by

releasing the On/off Switch. Make sure the

chain has stopped before setting the saw

down.

9. Keep practicing on scrap logs in a secure

working area until you are comfortable,

using a ﬂuid motion and a steady cutting

rate.

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. However, kickback can still

occur with this saw.

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 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.

• Do not let the Guide Bar nose touch

anything when chain is moving.

• Never try cutting through two logs at same

time. Only cut one log at a time.

• Do not bury Guide Bar nose or try a plunge

cut (boring into wood using the Guide Bar

nose).

• Watch for shifting of wood or other forces

that may pinch chain.

• Use extreme caution when reentering a

previous cut.

• Use only the low-kickback chain and guide

bar that were supplied with this chain saw

or recommended.

• Never use a dull or loose chain. Keep chain

sharp with proper tension.

GENERAL BEHAVIOR

HOW TO USE SAW SAFELY

1. Use the chain saw only with secure

footing.

2. Hold the chain saw at the right-hand side

of your body (See Fig. I).

3. The Chain (8) must be running at full speed

before it makes contact with the wood.

4. Use the Gripping Teeth (9) to secure the

saw onto the wood before starting to cut.

5. Use the Gripping Teeth as a leverage point

(a) while cutting (See Fig. J).

6. Do not operate the chain saw with

arms fully extended, attempt to saw

areas which are difﬁcult to reach, or

stand on a ladder while sawing (see

Fig. K). on a ladder.

7. Never use the chain saw above shoulder

height or with arms fully extended, or

when standing on ladder. (See Fig. K)

CUTTING WOOD UNDER TENSION (See

Fig. L)

WARNING: When cutting a 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.

When sawing logs supported on both ends,

Electric Chain Saw EN

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

diameter into the log (overbuck) and then

ﬁnish the cut (Z) from below, in order to avoid

contact of the chain saw 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(underbuck) and

ﬁnish the cut from above (Z) in order to avoid

log splitting or jamming of the chain saw.

SAW MAINTENANCE AND

KICKBACK SAFETY

Follow maintenance instructions in this

manual. Proper cleaning of saw and chain and

guide bar maintenance 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 CHAIN SAW

If the replacement of the supply cord is

necessary, this has to be done by the

manufacturer or his agent in order to avoid a

safety hazard .

1. Unplug chain saw from power source

• When not in use

• Before moving from one place to another

• Before servicing

• Before changing accessories or

attachments, such as saw chain and guard

2. Inspect chain saw before and after

each use.

Check saw closely if guard or other part

has been damaged. Check for any damage

that may affect operator safety or operation

of saw. Check for alignment or binding of

moving parts. Check for broken or damaged

parts. Do not use chain saw if damage affects

safety or operation. Have damage repaired

by authorized service center. To locate an

authorized service center, visit

www.worx.com.

3. Maintain chain saw with care.

• Never expose saw to rain or direct

moisture.

• Keep chain sharp, clean, and lubricated for

better and safer performance.

• Follow steps outlined in this manual to

sharpen chain.

• Keep handles dry, clean, and free of oil and

grease.

• Keep all screws and nuts tight.

• Inspect power cord often. If damaged,

have repaired by authorized service center.

• Never carry chain saw by power cord.

• Never yank power cord to unplug it.

• Keep power cord from heat, oil, and sharp

edges.

• Inspect extension cords often and replace

if damaged.

4. When servicing, use only identical

replacement parts.

5. When not in use, always store chain

saw

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

reach

• In a dry place

• With bar and chain cover (11) in place

Bar Maintenance

To maximize bar life, the following bar

maintenance is recommended.

The bar rails that carry the chain should be

cleaned before storing the tool or if the bar or

chain appear to be dirty.

The rails should be cleaned every time the

chain is removed.

To clean the Bar rails:

1. Remove chain cover and bar and chain.

(see section ASSEMBLY)

2. Using a wire brush, screwdriver or similar

tool, clear the residue from the inner

groove of the bar (See Fig. M).

3. Make sure to clean oil passages

thoroughly

Conditions which require Chain (8) and

guide bar maintenance:

• Saw cuts to one side or at an angle.

Electric Chain Saw EN

• Saw has to be forced through the cut.

• Inadequate supply of oil to the bar and

chain.

Check the condition of the guide bar each time

the chain is sharpened. A worn guide bar will

damage the chain and make cutting difﬁcult.

After each use, with unit disconnected from

power source, clean all sawdust from the

guide bar and sprocket hole.

When rail top is uneven, use a ﬂat ﬁle to

restore square edges and sides.

File Rail Edges

and Sides

Square

Worn Groove Correct Groove

Replace the guide bar when the groove is

worn, the guide bar is bent or cracked, or

when excess heating or burring of the rails

occurs. If replacement is necessary, use only

the guide bar speciﬁed for your saw in the

repair parts list or on the decal located on the

chain saw.

Replacing Bar & Chain

Replace chain when cutters are too worn

to sharpen or when chain stops. Only use

replacement chain noted in this manual.

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 cutting harder.

Fit the Bar Tensioning Plate catch Tab into the

new bar by tightening the screw clockwise.

The tab protrusion (a) must be ﬁtted into the

bar hole. (See Fig N)

SHARPENING SAW CHAIN

WARNING: Unplug chain saw from

power source before servicing.

Severe injury or death could occur from

electrical shock or body contact with

moving chain.

Cutting edges on chain are sharp. Use

protective gloves when handling chain.

Keep chain sharp. Your saw will cut faster and

more safely. A dull chain will cause undue

sprocket, 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.

LUBRICATE SPROCKET

WARNING: Wear heavy duty gloves

when performing any maintenance

or service to this tool. Always unplug

the tool before performing any service

or maintenance on this tool.

NOTE:

It is not necessary to remove the chain or bar

when lubricating the guide bar sprocket.

1. Clean the bar and sprocket

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

gun into the lubrication hole and inject

grease until it appears at the outside edge

of the sprocket tip. (See Fig.O)

3. To rotate the sprocket pull the chain

by hand until the ungreased side of the

sprocket is in line with the grease hole.

Repeat the lubrication procedure.

AVERTISSEMENTS

GENERAUX CONCERNANT

LA SECURITE DES OUTILS

ELECTRIQUES

AVERTISSEMENT! Lisez et assimilez

toutes les instructions. Le non-

respect des instructions ci-après peut entraîner

un risque de choc électrique, d’incendie et/ou

de blessures graves.

Conservez tous les avertissements et

instructions pour pouvoir les consulter

ultérieurement.

L’expression « outil électrique » dans tous

les avertissements énumérés ci-dessous se

réfère à votre outil électrique fonctionnant sur

secteur (branché) ou à batterie (sans-ﬁl).

1. AIRE DE TRAVAIL

a) Veillez à ce que l’aire de travail soit

propre et bien éclairée. Le désordre et le

manque de lumière favorisent les accidents.

b) N’utilisez pas d’outils électriques

dans un milieu présentant un risque

d’explosion, par exemple en présence

de liquides, de gaz ou de poussières

inﬂammables. Les outils électriques créent

des étincelles qui pourraient enﬂammer les

poussières ou les vapeurs.

c) Gardez à distance les curieux, les

enfants et les visiteurs lorsque vous

travaillez avec un outil électrique. Ils

pourraient vous distraire et vous faire faire

une fausse manoeuvre.

2. SÉCURITÉ ÉLECTRIQUE

a) Les ﬁches des outils électriques

doivent correspondre aux prises

murales. Ne jamais modiﬁer la ﬁche

de quelque façon que ce soit. Ne

pas utiliser de ﬁches d’adaptation

avec des outils électriques mis à

la terre (mis à la masse). Des ﬁches

non modiﬁées et des prises qui leur

correspondent réduiront le risque de choc

électrique.

b) Évitez tout contact corporel avec des

surfaces mises à la terre (tuyauterie,

radiateurs, cuisinières, réfrigérateurs,

etc.). Le risque de choc électrique est plus

grand si votre corps est en contact avec la

terre.

c) N’exposez pas les outils électriques

à la pluie ou à l’eau. La présence d’eau

dans un outil électrique augmente le risque

de choc électrique.

d) Ne maltraitez pas le cordon. Ne

transportez jamais l’outil par son

cordon et ne débranchez jamais

la ﬁche en tirant sur le cordon.
