SAFETY
Before attempting to operate this chainsaw the following
basic safety precautions should be taken to reduce the risk
of fire, electric shock and personal injury. It is important to
read the instruction manual and to understand applications,
limitations and potential hazards associated with this chainsaw.
It is important that you read, understand and follow these
instructions very carefully. They are designed for the safety
of yourself and others ensuring a long and trouble free service
life from your chainsaw. This chainsaw is not intended for use
by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision or instruction
concerning the use of the appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
ALWAYS use your chainsaw in an open well ventilated
area. Do not expose your chainsaw to rain. Do not expose
your chainsaw to direct sunlight. Keep the work area well
lit. Do not use your chainsaw in areas where there is a risk
of explosion or fire from combustible materials, flammable
liquids, paint, varnish, petrol, etc flammable gases and dust
of an explosive nature. As a precaution it is recommended
that you consult an expert on selecting and using a
suitable fire extinguisher and have it available for use in an
emergency when operating the chainsaw.
BEWARE OF CHILDREN & PETS
Children and pets should be kept out of the operating area.
Children should not be allowed to touch or operate chainsaw.
All chainsaws should be kept out of reach of children. When
NOT in use keep the chainsaw preferably stored or locked in a
secure well ventilated cabinet or room with the fuel tank empty.
PERSONAL PLANNING
1. Restrict the use of your saw to adult users who understand
and can follow safety rules, precautions and operating
instructions found in this manual.
2. Keep all parts of your body away from the chain when the
engine is running.
3. Keep children, bystanders, and animals a minimum of 10
meters away from the work area. Do not allow other people
or animals to be near the chain saw when starting or
operating the chain saw. If necessary use warning signs to
keep on lookers at a distance.
4. Carefully plan your sawing operation in advance. Do not
start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing
and if you are felling trees, a planned retreat path. Do not
operate the chainsaw near a naked flame or spilled fuel.
After refuelling always wipe off any spilled fuel, move the
chainsaw away from the fuelling point before starting the
engine.
5. Do not operate a chain saw with one hand. Serious injury
to the operator, helpers, bystanders or any combination of
these persons may result from one-handed operation. A
chain saw is intended for two-handed use. Always maintain
a firm foothold. Ensure you are able to STOP the engine
quickly if necessary.
6. Do not operate saw from a ladder or in a tree.
7. Make sure the chain will not make contact with any object
while starting the engine. Never try to start the saw when
the guide bar is in a cut.
8. Do not put pressure on the saw at the end of the cut.
Applying pressure can cause you to lose control when the
cut is completed.
9. With the engine stopped, hand carry the chain saw with the
muffler away from your body and the guide bar and chain to
the rear, preferably covered with a scabbard.
SELECT A CHAINSAW WITH A
SUFFICIENT RATING
Select the right chainsaw for the job. Do not use a chainsaw
to do a job for which it was not designed. Do not force a small
chainsaw to do the job of a heavy duty chainsaw. Any damage
caused by overloading will void the warranty. Do not use
chainsaws for purposes not intended.
OIL
This chainsaw has a 2 stroke motor. Always use good quality 2
stroke motor oil to mix with the fuel.
FUEL
Note: Do not use ethanol blended fuels.
This chainsaw requires pre-mixed 2 stroke fuel. Ensure unleaded
fuel is mixed with 2 stroke oil before being decanted into the
generator fuel tank.
Fuel used in this chainsaw is poisonous. Always wear approved
breathing protection when decanting fuel. If you get any fuel
on your skin or clothes wash the affected area immediately
with soap and water and change your clothes. If you get fuel in
your eyes wash immediately with clean water and seek medical
attention. If any fuel is swallowed DO NOT induce vomiting,
seek immediate medical attention.
HOT COMPONENTS
Beware many of the components will get hot during use. Never
touch any of the metal pipes, pump or motor as these may burn.

WARNING
Do not attempt to modify the chainsaw in any way; this will VOID your warranty.
The use of any attachment or accessory other than those recommended in this instruction manual could result in damage to the
chainsaw and could cause injuries to the operator.
This petrol chainsaw complies with Australian / New Zealand and International standards and safety requirements. Repairs
should only be carried out by qualified persons using original spare parts. Failure to do so may result in considerable danger to
the operator.
MAINTAIN YOUR CHAINSAW WITH CARE
When not using your chainsaw ensure the fuel cock is
‘OFF’. Never leave the fuel cock ‘ON’ as this can damage
the carburettor. Follow the instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories. Keep handles clean, dry and free from
oil and grease. Ensure that ventilation slots are kept clean and
free from dust at all times. Blocked ventilation slots can cause
overheating and damage to the motor. Ensure that the air and
fuel filters are kept clean at all times.
MAINTAIN THE SAW IN GOOD WORKING
ORDER
Have all chainsaw service performed by a qualified service
dealer with the exception of the items listed in the maintenance
section of this manual. For example: if improper tools are used
to remove or hold the flywheel when servicing the clutch,
structural damage to the flywheel can occur and cause the
flywheel to burst.
Make certain the saw chain stops moving when the throttle
trigger is released. If it does not, do not use until serviced by a
qualified service dealer.
1. Never modify your saw in any way.
2. Keep the handles dry, clean and free of oil or fuel mixture.
3. Keep fuel and oil caps, screws and fasteners securely
tightened.
4. Use only qualified accessories and replacement parts as
recommended
REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS & WRENCHES
Form the habit of always checking to see that any adjusting keys
or wrenches have been removed from the chainsaw before
operating.
FIRE PRECAUTIONS
Always contact your fire authority before using the pressure
washer on fire restricted days. It is not recommended to use
your chainsaw when a total fire ban is in force. Never refuel
your chainsaw while it is still running. As a precaution it is
recommended that an expert is consulted on obtaining and
using a suitable fire extinguisher.
CLEANING YOUR CHAINSAW
Always stop your chainsaw before you commence cleaning.
Always ensure that your chainsaw has cooled, about one
(1) hour, before cleaning and storing. When cleaning your
chainsaw use only a damp soft cloth. NEVER use liquid or
solvents of any type.
RISK OF DAMAGE
Damage may occur if nozzle is used too close to appliance
being cleaned. Always trial test the chainsaw on an
inconspicuous part of the appliance. Beware poor paint and
rust as the water will lift poor paint and cause rust spots to
grow. Damage caused by chainsaw is not covered by warranty.
CHECK DAMAGED PARTS
Before using the chainsaw it should be carefully checked to
determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended
function.
Check for broken or missing parts and have them replaced or
repaired at an authorised service facility. Check any other
condition that may affect the operation of the chainsaw. A
guard or any other part of the chainsaw that is damaged should
be properly repaired or replaced by an authorised service
facility unless otherwise indicated in this instruction manual.
Any switch that does not operate correctly must be replaced by
an authorised service facility.
DO NOT use the chainsaw if the ‘ON / OFF’ motor switch
does not turn the chainsaw ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’.
DO NOT use the chainsaw if the chain brake does not
operate correctly.
Do not operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly
adjusted, or not completely and securely assembled.
Always replace bar, chain, hand guard or chain brake
immediately if it becomes damaged, broken or is otherwise
removed.

PERSONAL SAFETY
Wear Protective Gear
Wear protective gear. Always use steel capped safety footwear
with non-slip soles, snug-fitting clothing, heavy-duty non-slip
gloves, eye protection such as non-fogging, vented goggles or
face screen, an approved safety hard hat and sound barriers
(ear plugs or mufflers) to protect your hearing. Regular users
should have hearing checked regularly as chain saw noise can
damage hearing. Secure hair above shoulder length.
Proper Clothing (Pic. 1)
Do not wear loose clothing, jewellery or anything that could get
caught in moving machinery.
Clothing must be sturdy and snug-fitting, but allow complete
freedom of movement. Avoid loose-fitting jackets, scarfs,
neckties, jewellery, flared or cuffed pants or anything that could
become entangled with the saw or brush. Wear overalls or
jeans with a reinforced cutting resistant insert.
Protect your hands with gloves when handling saw and saw
chain. Heavy-duty nonslip gloves improve your grip and protect
your hands.
Good footing is most important in chain saw work. Wear
sturdy boots with nonslip soles. Steel-toed safety boots are
recommended.
Proper eye protection is a must. Non-fogging, vented goggles
and a face screen is recommended. Their use reduces the risk
of eye and facial injury.
Wear an approved safety hard hat to protect your head.
Chain saw noise may damage your hearing. Always wear noise
protection equipment(ear plugs or ear muffs)to protect your
hearing.
Continual and regular users should have their hearing checked
regularly.
Hair
Long hair should be tied back or contained in a protective
covering.
Eye Protection
The use of safety goggles is highly recommended (normal
glasses are not sufficient for eye protection) when using or
refuelling chainsaws. Prescription glasses do not have safety
lenses.
Footwear
Where there is the risk of heavy objects or if there is a risk
of slipping on wet or slippery floors, suitable non–slip steel
capped safety footwear should be worn. Protect your feet from
dropping accidents.
Ear Protection
The use of ear protection is highly recommended when using
chainsaws. The continual noise may damage your ears.
Respiratory Protection
Always wear approved breathing protection when decanting
fuel. ALWAYS use this chainsaw in well ventilated area. Never
use indoors.
WARNING: Do not breathe in exhaust fumes. Exhaust fumes are
poisonous and may cause drowsiness, unconsciousness and
even death.
Do Not Over Reach
Do not over reach. Keep a proper footing and maintain your
balance at all times. Avoid using abnormal stances and
awkward body positions.
Stay Alert
Watch what you are doing, use common sense, and never
operate a chainsaw when you are tired, drinking alcohol, taking
drugs or if taking medication that causes drowsiness.
Do not handle or operate a chain saw when you are fatigued, ill
or upset or if you have taken alcohol, drugs or medication. You
must be in good physical condition and mentally alert. Chain
saw work is strenuous. If you have any condition that might be
aggravated by strenuous work, check with your doctor before
operating a chain saw.

KICKBACK SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Kickback may occur when the moving
saw chain (near the upper quadrant of the bar nose)
contacts a solid object or is pinched.
The reaction of the cutting force of the chain causes a rotational
force on the chainsaw in the direction opposite to the chain
movement. This may fling the bar up and back in an uncontrolled
arc mainly in the plane of the bar. Under some cutting
circumstances the bar moves towards the operator, who may
suffer severe or fatal injury.
Kickback (Pic. 2) may occur when the nose of the guide bar is
pinched unexpectedly, unintentionally contacts solid material in
the wood or is incorrectly used to begin a plunge or boring cut.
It may also occur during limbing. The greater the force of the
kickback reaction, the more difficult it becomes for the operator
to control the saw. Many factors influence the occurrence and
force of the kickback reaction. These include chain speed, the
speed at which the bar and chain contact the object, the angle
of contact, the condition of the chain and other factors.
WARNING: Use extreme caution when cutting small size
brush and saplings which may easily catch the chain
and pull you off balance.
PULL-IN
Pull-in occurs when the chain on the bottom of the bar is
suddenly stopped when it is pinched, caught or encounters a
foreign object in the wood. The reaction of the chain pulls the
saw forward and may cause the operator to lose control.
Pull-in frequently occurs when the bumper spike of the saw is
not held securely against the tree or limb and when the chain is
not rotating at full speed before it contacts the wood.
To Avoid Pull-In (Pic. 3)
1. Always start a cut with the chain rotating at full speed and
the bumper spike in contact with the wood.
2. Pull-in may also be prevented by using wedges to open the
kerf or cut.
PUSHBACK
Pushback occurs when the chain on the top of the bar is
suddenly stopped when it is pinched, caught or encounters a
foreign object in the wood. The reaction of the chain drives the
saw straight back toward the operator and may cause loss of
saw control. Pushback frequently occurs when the top of the
bar is used for cutting.
To Avoid Pushback (Pic. 4)
1. Be alert to forces or situations that may cause material to
pinch the top of the chain.
2. Do not cut more than one log at a time.
3. Do not twist the saw when withdrawing the bar from a
plunge cut or underbuck cut because the chain can pinch.

SYMBOLS
DEVICES FOR REDUCING THE RISK OF
KICKBACK INJURY
Quickstop Chain Brake
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury, stop using the
saw immediately if the chain brake does not function
properly. Take the saw to your local Service Centre! Do
not use the saw until the problem has been rectified.
Chain brake is designed to stop the chain in the event of
kickback. When the chain brake/hand guard is pushed towards
the bar, the chain should stop immediately. A chain brake does
not prevent kick-back, the chain brake should be cleaned and
tested daily.
Low Kickback Chain
“Low kickback saw chain” is a chain which has met the
kickback performance requirements. Low-Kickback Chain,
designed with a contoured depth gauge and guard link which
deflect kickback force and allow wood to gradually ride into the
cutter. This chainsaw is fitted with a low kickback chain.
Reduced Kickback Bar
Reduced-Kickback Guide Bar, designed with a small radius tip
which reduces the size of the kickback danger zone on the bar
tip. A Reduced-Kickback Guide Bar has been demonstrated to
significantly reduce the number and seriousness of kickbacks.
This chainsaw is fitted with a low kickback bar.
Warning. See
instruction
handbook.
Appropriate ear, eye
and head protection
must be worn.
Hot surfaces will
burn fingers or
palms.
Gloves with saw

To Avoid Kickback
The best protection from personal injury that may result from
kickback is to avoid kickback situations.
1. Hold the chainsaw firmly with both hands and maintain a
secure grip.
2. Be aware of the location of the guide bar nose at all times.
3. Never let the nose of the guide bar contact any object. Do
not cut limbs with the nose of the guide bar.
Be especially careful when cutting small, tough limbs, small
size brush and saplings which may easily catch the chain.
4. Don’t overreach.
5. Don’t cut above shoulder height.
6. Begin cutting and continue at full throttle.
7. Cut only one log at a time.
8. Use extreme caution when reentering a previous cut.
9. Do not attempt to plunge cut if you are not experienced with
these cutting techniques.
10. Be alert for shifting of the log or other forces that may cause
the cut to close and pinch the chain.
11. Maintain saw chain properly. Cut with a correctly
sharpened, properly tensioned chain at all times.
12. Stand to the side of the cutting path of the chainsaw.
Engage: push to
forward position
Disengage: pull

IMPORTANT: 2-STROKE FUEL
FUEL - ONLY USE UNLEADED PETROL (ULP)
Fuel tank capacity – 4 litres (4 L)
Use of incorrect fuel and/or oil may damage the generator and will not be covered under warranty.
Do not use E10 or any type of ethanol fuel as this will damage the chainsaw and will not be covered under warranty.
Do not use high octane fuels (greater than 91%) as this will damage the chainsaw and will not be covered under warranty.
• Ensure you use clean fresh unleaded petrol (ULP).
• Use a clean approved container to store and mix your unleaded petrol (ULP) 2 stroke fuel mix in before decanting into the
fuel tank.
• If contaminated (dirty) or old (stale) fuel is used any damage caused will not be covered under warranty.
OIL
To operate, this chainsaw requires 2 stroke oil to be mixed with the unleaded fuel, not supplied. If the chainsaw does not have
the correct amount of oil mixed into the fuel the motor will be damaged and not covered under warranty.
Oil type: 2 stroke motor oil
Oil to fuel mix: 25:1
40ml 2 Stroke oil : 1 Litre Unleaded Fuel
• Always use fresh clean 2 stroke oil.
• If contaminated (dirty) or old (stale) 2 stroke oil is used any damage caused will not be covered under warranty.
MIXING 2-STROKE FUEL
1. Use only unleaded petrol (ULP) and 2 stroke oil.
Ratio 25:1. 40mls 2 stroke oil to 1 litre unleaded fuel.
2. Ensure you use clean fresh unleaded petrol (ULP) + 2 stroke
oil.
3. Always wear approved breathing protection when mixing
fuel. Always mix fuel in a well ventilated area, never
indoors.
4. Use a clean approved container to mix and store your 2
stroke petrol before decanting into the fuel tank.
5. Ensure fuel / oil is mixed well.
Important
Experience indicates that alcohol-blended fuels (called gasohol
or using ethanol or methanol)can attract moisture which leads
to separation and formation of acids during storage.
Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in
storage. To avoid engine problems, the fuel system should be
emptied before storage for 30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank,
start the engine and let it run until the fuel lines and carburettor
are empty. Use fresh fuel next season. See STORAGE section for
additional information. Always use fresh clean new unleaded
petrol and new clean 2 stroke oil. To prevent possible restarting
problems avoid running the fuel tank dry. This will help to extend
engine life.

The PRIMER BULB circulates fuel to the carburettor to provide
quicker starting.
Chain Brake
The chain brake is a device designed to stop the chain if
kickback occurs. The chain brake activates automatically in
the event of kickback. The chain brake activates manually if
the front hand guard is pushed forward. The chain brake is
disengaged by pulling the front hand guard back toward the
front handle as far as possible.
Chain Tension
It is normal for a new chain to stretch during the first 5 minutes
of operation.
Ensure the engine is always SWITCH OFF before fitting or
adjusting the chain. You should check your chain tension
frequently. See CHAIN TENSION on page 14.

CHAIN TENSION
(Including units with chain already installed)
WARNING: Wear protective gloves when handling
chain. The chain is sharp and can cut you even when it
is not moving.
Note: When adjusting chain tension, make sure the chain bar
nuts are finger tight only. Attempting to tension the chain when
the chain bar nuts are tight can cause damage.
Checking the Tension
Use the screwdriver end of the chain adjustment tool (bar tool)
to move chain around guide bar. If the chain does not rotate,
it is too tight. If the chain is too loose, it will sag below the bar
(Pic. 7).
CHAIN BAR OIL & LUBRICATION
The service life of the bar and chain depends on good
lubrication. We recommend using a good quality Chainsaw
Chain Oil. Otherwise it will result in damage to the bar, the chain
and oil pump. The bar and chain require continuous lubrication.
Lubrication is provided by the automatic oilier system when
the oil tank is kept filled. Lack of oil will quickly ruin the bar and
chain. Too little oil will cause overheating shown by smoke
coming from the chain and/or discolouration of the bar. Bar and
chain oil must be free flowing for the oil system to pump enough
oil for adequate lubrication. Never use waste oil for bar and
chain lubrication. Always stop the engine before removing the
oil cap. Refill the chain oil tank each lime the saw is refuelled.
To prevent possible restarting problems avoid running the fuel
tank dry. This will help to extend engine life.

Adjusting the Tension (Pic. 8, 9 & 10)
Chain tension is very important. Chains stretch during use. This
is especially true during the first few times you use your saw.
Always check chain tension each time you use and refuel your
saw.
1. Loosen bar nuts until they are finger tight against the clutch
cover.
2. Turn adjusting screw clockwise until chain solidly contacts
bottom of guide bar rail.
3. Using bar tool, roll chain around guide bar to ensure all links
are in bar groove.
4. Lift up tip of guide bar to check for sag. Release tip of guide
bar, then turn adjusting screw 1/4 turn clockwise. Repeat
until sag does not exist.
5. While lifting tip of guide bar, tighten bar nuts securely with
the bar tool.
6. Use the screwdriver end of the bar tool to move chain
around guide bar.
7. If chain does not rotate, it is too tight. Slightly loosen bar
nuts and loosen chain by turning the adjusting screw 1/4
turn counterclockwise. Retighten clutch cover locking nuts.
8. If chain is too loose, it will sag below the guide bar. DO NOT
operate the saw if the chain is loose.

TO START THE ENGINE
The chain brake must be engaged when starting the saw. Push
chain brake forward to engage. The chainsaw is started on the
ground. Make sure the chain brake is disengaged and place the
chainsaw on firm level ground or other solid surface in an open
area. Maintain good balance and secure footing.
Grip the front handlebar of the saw firmly with your left hand
and left hand and press down. For saws with a rear handle
level with the ground, put the toe of your right foot into the rear
handle and press down. With your right hand pull out the starter
pull cord slowly until you feel a definite resistance and then give
it a brisk pull until the engine starts. See Picture 11 for starting
process.
To prevent possible restarting problems avoid running the fuel
tank dry. This will help to extend engine life.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Pre - Operation Preparation
Note: If unit has previously been used, the motor, muffler and
exhaust may still be hot enough to burn. Always exercise
caution when checking the chainsaw.
1. Check that the fuel/engine switch is OFF.
2. Check that the spark plug lead is firmly attached to the top
of the spark plug.
3. Holding on to the handles gently rock the chainsaw and
listen for any noise which may indicate loose items. If
anything appears to be loose either tighten or consult a
service agent.
Filling
Always use clean fresh fuel as specified on page 9. Stale fuel
can cause the chainsaw to run rough and damage the motor;
this will not be covered by warranty.
1. Ensure the engine is OFF.
2. Use fresh 2 stroke fuel as detailed on page 9.
3. Lay chainsaw on its side and remove fuel tank cap.
4. Fill fuel tank with about 1/2 litre of pre-mixed 2 stroke fuel.
5. Fit and tighten fuel tank cap.
6. Reposition chainsaw to an upright position.

IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER
When pulling the starter rope, do not use the full extent of the
rope as this can cause the rope to break. Do not let starter rope
snap back . Hold the handle and let the rope rewind slowly.
For cold weather starting, start the unit at FULL CHOKE, allow
the engine to warm up before squeezing the throttle trigger.
Note: Do not attempt to cut material with the choke/fast idle
lever in the FULL CHOKE position.
To Stop The Engine (Pic. 12)
Move the ON/STOP switch to the OFF position.
Warning: DO NOT put the chainsaw on the ground when the
chain is still moving.
Always engage the chain brake when it is not in use.
Starting a Cold Engine (Or Warm Engine After Running
Out Of Fuel)
Note: In the following steps, when the choke lever is pulled out
to the full extent, the correct throttle setting for starting is set
automatically.
1. Move the ON/STOP switch to the RUN position (Pic. 12).
RUN/ON - I depressed
OFF - 0 depressed
2. Pull choke lever out to the full extent (to the FULL CHOKE
position) (Pic. 13)
3. Slowly press primer bulb 7 times.
4. Pull the starter rope sharply 5 times with your right hand.
Then proceed to the next step.
Note: If the engine sounds as if it is trying to start before the 5th
pull, stop pulling and immediately proceed to the next step.
5. Push the choke lever in to the HALF CHOKE position.
6. Pull the starter rope sharply you’re your right hand until the
engine starts.
7. Allow the engine to run for approximately 5 seconds. Push
choke lever back to off position.
Starting a Warm Engine
1. Move ON/STOP switch to the ON position.
2. Then push the lever in to the HALF CHOKE position.
3. Pull the starter rope sharply you’re your right hand until the
engine starts.
4. Push the choke lever back to off position.
Difficult Starting (Or Starting a Flooded Engine)
The engine may be flooded with too much fuel if it has not
started after 10 pulls. Flooded engines can be cleared of excess
fuel by pushing the choke lever in completely (to the OFF CHOKE
position) and then following the warm engine starting procedure
listed above. Ensure the ON/OFF switch is in the ON position.
Starting could require pulling the starter rope handle many
times depending on how badly the unit is flooded. If engine fails
to start, refer to the TROUBLESHOOTING TABLE or seek help
from an authorised service centre.

CHAIN BRAKE (PIC. 16 & 17)
WARNING: If the brake band is worn too thin, it may
break when the chain brake is triggered. DO NOT USE
IT. It must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service
agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a
hazard.
Chain Brake
Ensure chain brake is disengaged by pulling the front hand
guard back toward the front handle as far as possible. The chain
brake must be disengaged before cutting with the saw.
WARNING: The chain must not move when the engine
runs at idle speed. If the chain moves at idle speed refer
to CARBURETTOR ADJUSTMENT on page 28. Avoid
contact with the muffler. A hot muffler can cause
serious burns.
With a broken brake band, the chain brake will not stop the
chain. The chain brake should be replaced by an authorized
service dealer if any part is worn to less than 0.5 mm (0.020”)
thick. Repairs on a chain brake should be made by an authorized
service centre. Take your unit to the to the nearest authorized
service centre.
• This saw is equipped with a chain brake. The brake is
designed to stop the chain if kickback occurs.
• The inertia-activated chain brake is activated if the front
hand guard is pushed forward, either manually (by hand) or
automatically (by sudden movement) (Pic. 17).
• If the brake is already activated, it is disengaged by pulling
the front hand guard back toward the front handle as far as
possible (Pic. 16).
• When cutting with the saw, the chain brake must be
disengaged.
Caution: The chain brake must be checked several times daily.
The engine must be running when performing this procedure.
This is the only instance when the saw should be placed on the
ground with the engine running.
Place the saw on firm ground. Grip the rear handle with your
right hand and the front handle with your left hand. Apply full
throttle by fully depressing the throttle trigger. Activate the
chain brake by turning your left wrist against the hand guard
without releasing your grip around the front handle. The chain
should stop immediately.

SUGGESTED TREE FELLING TECHNIQUES
(PIC. 18)
Note: If unsure about chainsaw operation we suggest doing a
chainsaw course.
• Carefully plan your sawing operation in advance.
• Clear the work area. You need a clear area all around the
tree so you can have secure footing.
• The chain saw operator should keep on the uphill side of the
terrain as the tree likely to roll or slide downhill after it is
felled.
• Study the natural conditions that can cause the tree to fall
in a particular direction. Natural conditions that can cause a
tree to fall in a particular direction include.
• The wind direction and speed.
• The lean of the tree. The lean of a tree might not be apparent
due to uneven or sloping terrain. Use a plumb or level to
determine the direction of tree lean.
• Weight and branches on one side.
• Surrounding trees and obstacles.
Look for decay and rot. If the trunk is rotted, it can snap and fall
toward the operator. Check for broken or dead branches which
can fall on you while cutting. Make sure there is enough room
for the tree to fall. Maintain a distance of 2-1/2 tree lengths from
the nearest person or other objects. Engine noise can drown out
a warning call. Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, staples
and wire from the tree where cuts are to be made. Plan a clear
retreat path to the rear and diagonal to the line of fall.
Felling Large Trees (15cm/6 inches) in diameter or
larger)
The notch method is used to fell large trees. A notch is cut on
the side of the tree in the desired direction of fall. After a felling
cut is made on the opposite side of tree, the tree will tend to fall
into the notch.
Note: If the tree has large buttress roots, remove them before
making the notch. If using saw to remove buttress roots, keep
saw chain from contacting ground to prevent dulling of the
chain.
WARNING
Check for broken or dead branches which can fall while cutting causing serious injury. Do not cut near buildings or electrical
wires if you do not know the direction of tree fall, nor cut at night since you will not be ale to see well, nor during bad weather
such as rain, snow, or strong winds, etc. If the tree makes contact with any utility line, the utility company should be notified
immediately.
OPERATING TIPS
• Check chain tension before first use and after 1 minute of
operation. See CHAIN TENSION on page 14.
• Cut wood only. Do not cut metal, plastics, masonry, non-
wood building materials, etc.
• Stop the saw if the chain strikes a foreign object. Inspect the
saw and repair or replace parts as necessary.
• Keep the chain out of dirt and sand prior to use. Even a small
amount of dirt will quickly dull a chain and thus increase the
possibility of kickback.
• Practice cutting a few small logs using the following
techniques to get the “feel” of using your saw before you
begin a major sawing operation.
• Squeeze the throttle trigger and allow the engine to reach
full speed before cutting.
• Begin cutting with the saw frame against the log.
• Keep the engine at full speed the entire time you are cutting.
• Allow the chain to cut for you. Exert only light downward
pressure. If you force the cut, damage to the bar, chain or
engine can result.
• Release the throttle trigger as soon as the cut is completed,
allowing the engine to idle. If you run the saw at full throttle
without a cutting load, unnecessary wear can occur to the
chain, bar and engine. It is recommended that the engine not
be operated for longer than 30 seconds at full throttle.
• To avoid losing control when cut is complete, do not put
pressure on saw at end of cut.
• Stop the engine before setting the saw down after cutting.
Check Chainsaw Lubrication
1. Start the Chainsaw.
2. Hold the running chainsaw approximately 15cm above a
trunk or the ground (use appropriate base).
3. If the lubrication is sufficient, you will see a light oil trace
because oil will be flung off the saw.
4. If no oil trace is seen, check chain oil reservoir and clean
the chainsaw from debris/dirt.
