WARNING: Readand understandall in-

structions. Failureto follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock,

fire,and/or serious personalinjury.

READ ALL iNSTRUCTiONS BASIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

[] Do not operate a chain saw with one hand!

Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers en- circling the chain saw handles. Serious injury to the operator, helpers, bystanders, or any

combination of these persons may result from one=handed operation. A chain saw is intend=

ed for two-handed use.

[] Always be aware of what you are doing when

using the chain saw. Use common sense. Do not operate the chain saw when you are tired, ill, or under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or

medication.

[] Stay alert and pay attention to what you are

doing. Use common sense when using this unit.

[] Keep all parts of your body away from the

saw chain when the unit is running.

[] Always carry the chain saw by the front han-

dle with the unit stopped and the guide bar and saw chain positioned to the rear. When

transporting your chain saw, use the appro- priate chain cover.

[] Never let anyone use your chain saw who

has not received adequate instructions in its proper use. This applies to rentals as well as privately owned saws.

[] Before you start the unit, make sure the saw

chain is not contacting any object.

[] Stop the chain saw before setting it down. Do

not leave the unit running unattended.

[] To avoid accidental starting, never carry the

unit with your finger on the switch trigger.

[] Maintain the unit with care. Keep the cutting

edge sharp and clean for best performance and to reduce the risk of injury. Follow in=

structions for lubricating and changing ac= cessories. Inspect the battery charger cord

periodically, and if damaged, have it replaced

or repaired by an authorized service dealer.

[] Keep handles dry, clean, and free of oil and

grease.

[] Do not operate a chain saw that is damaged,

improperly adjusted, or not completely and

securely assembled. Chain should stop turn=

ing when the switch trigger is released. If the

chain turns after the switch trigger has been

released, have the unit serviced by your near-

est Craftsman service dealer.

[]

Check for damaged parts. Any part or guard that has been 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 dam- aged should be properly repaired or replaced

by an authorized service dealer unless other=

wise indicated elsewhere in this manual.

[]

All chain saw service, other than the items

listed in the operation and maintenance sec-

tions, should be performed by your nearest

Craftsman service dealer.

[]

Do not use in the rain, snow or wet condi-

tions.

[]

Always maintain a proper stance. Do not overreach.

[]

Do not adapt your powerhead to a bow guide

or use it to power any attachments or devices

not listed for the saw.

[] Do not cut vines and/or small underbrush.

CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65

WARNING: This product and substances that may become airborne from its use may contain

chemicals, including lead, known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. Wash hands after handling.

SAFETY APPAREL

[] Wear snug fitting clothing. Always wear

heavy, long pants, long sleeves, overalls, jeans or chaps made of cut resistant mate=

rial or ones that contain cut resistant inserts. Wear non-slip safety footwear. Wear non-slip

heavy duty gloves to improve your grip and to protect your hands. Do not wear jewelry, short pants, sandals, or go barefoot. Do not

wear loose fitting clothing, which could be drawn into the motor or catch the chain or un-

derbrush. Secure hair so it is above shoulder level.

[] Always wear eye protection with side shields

marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1, along with head protection.

KICKBACK

See Figures 1 - 3.

[] WARNING: Kickback may occur when the

moving chain contacts an object at the upper portion of the tip of the guide bar or when the

wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut. Contact at the upper portion of the

tip of the guide bar can cause the chain to dig into the object and stop the chain for an instant. The result is a lightning fast, reverse

reaction which kicks the guide bar up and back toward the operator. If the saw chain is pinched along the top of the guide bar, the

guide bar can be driven rapidly back toward the operator. Either of these reactions can

cause loss of saw control which can result in serious injury. Do not rely exclusively upon

the safety devices built into the saw. As a chain saw user, you should take several steps

to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or injury.

[] The following precautions should be fol=

lowed to minimize kickback:

Hold the saw firmly with both hands when the motor is running. Place your right hand on the rear handle and your left hand on

the front handle with your thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw handles.

A firm grip together with a stiff left arm will help you maintain control of the saw if

kickback occurs.

o Make sure that the area in which you are

cutting is free from obstructions. Do not

let the nose of the guide bar contact a log,

branch, fence, or any other obstruction that could be hit while you are operating the saw.

• Always cut with the unit running at full speed. Fully squeeze the switch trigger and maintain a steady cutting speed.

o Use replacement parts such as low kick-

back chain and special guide bars that

reduce the risks associated with rotational

kickback.

,, Use only the replacement guide bars and

low kickback chains specified by the man- ufacturer for the saw.

[] With a basic understanding of kickback, you

can reduce or eliminate the element of surprise.

Sudden surprise contributes to accidents. [] Keep proper footing and balance at all times. [] Do not cut above shoulder height or overreach

when cutting. [] Follow the sharpening and maintenance in=

structions for the saw chain.

4 - English

Page 5

[] Push and Pull - This reaction force is always

opposite to the direction the chain is mov- ing where wood contact is made. Thus, the

operator must be ready to control the PULL when cutting on the bottom edge of the bar,

and PUSH when cutting along the top edge.

See Figure 3.

IN THE CUTTING/WORK AREA

[] Do not operate a chain saw in a tree, on a

ladder, rooftop or scaffold; this is extremely dangerous.

[] Keep ALL children, bystanders, visitors, and

animals out of the work area while starting or cutting with the chain saw.

NOTE: The size of the work area depends on the job being performed as well as the size

tree or work piece involved. For example, felling a tree requires a larger work area than making bucking cuts.

[] Never start cutting until you have a clear work

area, secure footing, and a planned retreat path from the falling tree. Cluttered area invite injuries.

[] Do not expose the chain saw to rain. [] Do not use the chain saw in damp or wet

locations.

[] Do not use the chain saw near flammable liq-

uids, gases, or in any type of explosive atmo- sphere.

[] Use extreme caution when cutting small size

brush and saplings, because slender mate- rial 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 force the chain saw. The job can be

performed better and safer at the rate for which it was intended.

[]

Do not use the chain saw for purposes not

intended. [] Store idle chain saw when not in use. Chain

saw should be stored in a dry and high or

locked area out of the reach of children.

When storing chain saw, remove battery and

place the chain cover on the bar and chain. [] Remove the battery pack from the chain saw

before cleaning, servicing, storing, transport-

ing, removing material from the unit, chang-

ing accessories such as the bar and chain, or

when not in use.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR CHAIN SAW

SAFETY DEVICES LOW KICKBACK SAW CHAIN

The rakers (depth gauges) ahead of each cutter can minimize the force of a kickback reaction by preventing the cutters from digging in too deeply at the kickback zone. Only use replacement chain that is equivalent to original chain or has been certified as low kickback chain per ANSI

B175.1. Low kickback saw chain is chain that has met

the kickback performance requirements of ANSI B175.1 - 1991 (American National Standard for

Power Tools - Gasoline-Powered Chain Saws- Safety Requirements) when tested on the repre-

sentative sample of chain saws below 3.8 c.i.d. specified in ANSI B175.1 - 1991.

As saw chains are sharpened during their useful life, they lose some of the low kickback qualities and extra caution should be used.

GUIDE BARS

Generally, guide bars with small radius tips have somewhat lower kickback potentials.

When making a replacement, be sure to order one of the Craftsman bars listed for the saw in

this operator's manual.

[] Always use the right product for your applica-

tion. The chain saw should be used for cutting wood only. Never use the chain saw to cut plastic, masonry or non=wood building mate-

rials.

5 - English

Page 6

BATTERY SAFETY

[] Battery operated units do not have to be

plugged into an electrical outlet; therefore, they are always in operating condition. Be

aware of possible hazards even when unit is not operating.

[] Remove the battery pack from the chain saw

before cleaning, servicing, storing, transport= ing, removing material from the unit, chang= ing accessories such as the bar and chain, or

when not in use.

[] A battery pack must be recharged only with

the specified charger for the battery pack. A charger that may be suitable for one type of

battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack. Use battery pack only with charger listed.

[] For use with 40 V nickel-cadmium and 40

V lithium=ion battery packs, see tool/appli= ance/battery pacWcharger correlation supple= ment 988000-272.

[] To reduce the risk of explosion and possible

injury, Do not place battery units or their bat= teries near fire or heat.

[] Do not open or mutilate the battery pack. Re =

leased electrolyte is corrosive and may cause damage to the eyes or skin. It may be toxic if

swallowed.

[] Do not crush, drop or damage battery pack.

Do not use a battery pack or charger that has been dropped or received a sharp blow.

A damaged battery is subject to explosion. Properly dispose of a dropped or damaged

battery immediately.

[] Batteries can explode in the presence of a

source of ignition, such as a pilot light. To re=

duce the risk of serious personal injury, never

use any cordless product in the presence of

open flame. An exploded battery pack can

propel debris and chemicals. If exposed, flush

with water immediately. [] Do not charge unit in a damp or wet location.

Following this rule will reduce the risk of elec-

tric shock. [] For best results, your battery unit should be

charged in a location where the temperature

is more than 50°F but less than 100°F. Do not

store outside or in vehicles. [] Under extreme usage or temperature con=

ditions, battery pack leakage may occur. If

liquid comes in contact with your skin, wash

immediately with soap and water, then neu=

tralize with lemon juice or vinegar. If liquid

gets into your eyes, flush them with clean

water for at least 10 minutes, then seek im=

mediate medical attention. [] Do not dispose of batteries in a fire. The cell

may explode. Batteries should be recycled,

consult your local waste authority for infor=

mation regarding available recycling and/or

disposal options. [] When battery pack is not in use, keep it away

from other metal objects like: paper clips,

coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small met=

al objects that can make a connection from

one terminal to another. Shorting the battery

pack terminals together may cause sparks,

burns, or a fire.

[] Make sure the latches on each side of

the battery pack snap in place and that

battery pack is secured in chain saw before beginning operation.

To remove: Locate latches on side of battery pack and

depress both sides to release the battery pack from the chain saw.

CAUTION: Remove battery pack from

unit. Fill oil tank with Craftsman Bar and Chain Lubricant before starting the chain

saw. Failure to lubricate the chain will cause damage to the bar and chain.

CHAIN OIL SYSTEM See figure 6.

[] Use Craftsman Bar and Chain Lubricant.

It is formulated to perform over a wide

temperature range with no dilution required. NOTE: Do not use dirty, used or otherwise

contaminated lubricants. Damage may occur to the bar or chain.

[] Carefully pour the bar and chain lubricant into

the tank.

[] Check and fill the oil tank when battery is

recharged, or as needed.

[] Depress the oil tank cap several times to

pump the lubricant to the chain before starting the saw.

[] Depress the oil tank cap every 20-30 seconds

while cutting to keep the chain lubricated.

NOTE: It is normal for lubricant to seep from the saw when not in use. To prevent seepage, empty

the oil tank after each use. When storing the unit for a long period of time (three months or longer)

be sure the chain is lightly lubricated; this will prevent rust on the chain and bar sprocket.

STARTING AND STOPPING THE CHAIN SAW

See figure 7

WARNING: Keep body to the left of the

chain line. Never straddle the saw or chain, or lean over past the chain line.

Starting the chain saw: [] Place the chain saw on a flat bare surface

and make sure no objects or obstructions are in immediate vicinity which could come in contact with the bar and chain.

[] Press and hold the lock-out button. This

makes the switch trigger operational.

[] Press and hold the switch trigger, release the

lock-out button and continue to squeeze the switch trigger for continued operation.

Stopping the chain saw: [] Release the switch trigger to stop the chain saw. [] Upon release of the switch trigger, the lock-

out button will be automatically reset to the lock position.

This cordless chain saw is not designed for cutting trees larger than 5 in. in diameter.

This cordless chain saw is designed for limbing and pruning type cutting, as well as cutting trees

up to 5 in. in diameter only.

[] Maintain a proper grip on the saw whenever

the unit is running. The fingers should encircle the handle and the thumb is wrapped under

the handlebar. This grip is least likely to

be broken (by a kickback or other sudden reaction of the saw). Any grip in which the

thumb and fingers are on the same side of the

handle, is dangerous because a slight kick of

the saw can cause loss of control.

_, WARNING: Do not operate the switch trig-

ger with your left hand and hold the front handle with your right hand. Never allow

any part of your body to be in the chain line

while operating a saw.

PREPARATION FOR CUTTING PROPER GRIP ON HANDLES See figure 8-10.

Refer to GENERAL SAFETY RULES earlier in this manual for appropriate safety equipment.

[] Wear non-slip gloves for maximum grip and

protection.

[] Hold the saw firmly with both hands. Always

keep your left hand on the front handle and

your right hand on the rear handle so that your body is to the left of the chain line.

_, WARNING: Never use a left-handed

(cross-handed) grip, or any stance which would place your body or arm across the

chain line.

13 - English

Page 14

PROPER CUTTING STANCE See figure 11.

,_ WARNING: Always use the proper cutting

stance described in this section. Never kneel when using the chain saw except

when felling a tree as shown in Figure 16.

Kneeling could result in loss of stability and

control of the saw resulting in serious per- sonal injury.

[] Weight should be balanced with both feet on

solid ground.

[] Keep left arm with elbow locked in a "straight

arm" position to withstand any kickback force.

[] Your body should always be to the left of the

chain line.

[] Thumb should be on underside of handlebar.

BASIC CUTTING PROCEDURE Practice cutting a few small logs using the

following technique to get the "feel" of using the saw before you begin a major sawing operation.

[] Take the proper stance in front of the wood

with the saw off.

[] Squeeze the switch trigger and let the chain

accelerate to full speed before entering the cut.

[] Begin cutting with the saw against the log. [] Keep the unit running the entire time you are

cutting, maintain a steady speed.

[] Allow the chain to cut for you; exert only light

downward pressure. If you force the cut, damage to the bar, chain, or unit can result.

[] Release the switch trigger as soon as the

cut is completed, allowing the chain to stop. If you run the saw without a cutting load,

unnecessary wear can occur to the chain, bar, and unit.

[] Do not put pressure on the saw at the end of

the cut.

WORK AREA PRECAUTIONS

[] Cut only wood or materials made from wood,

no sheet metal, no plastics, no masonry, no non-wood building materials.

[] Never allow children to operate the saw.

Allow no person to use this chain saw who has not read this Operator's Manual or

received adequate instructions for the safe and proper use of this chain saw.

[] When felling a tree, keep everyone - helpers,

bystanders, children, and animals - a safe distance from the cutting area. During felling

operations, the safe distance should be a least twice the height of the largest trees in

the felling area. During bucking operations, keep a minimum distance of 15 feet between

workers.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 utility company should be notified immediately.

[] Always cut with both feet on solid ground to

prevent being pulled off balance.

[] Do not cut above shoulder height, as a saw

held higher is difficult to control against kickback forces.

[] Do not fell trees near electrical wires

or buildings. Leave this operation for professionals.

[] Cut only when visibility and light are adequate

for you to see clearly.

14 - English

Page 15

TREE FELLING See figure 12-16.

Unusual Hazardous Tree Felling Conditions Do not fell trees during periods of high wind or

heavy precipitation. Wait to do your cutting until the hazard has ended.

WARNING: Do not cut down trees hav-

ing an extreme lean or large trees that have rotten limbs, loose bark, or hollow trunks.

Have these trees pushed or dragged down

with heavy equipment, then cut them up.

DANGER: Electrocution hazard. Do not cut trees or branches near power lines or elec=

trical wires. Contact with power lines or live electrical wires will result in serious personal

injury or possible death.

WARNING: Do not cut trees or branches

near buildings, which may result in serious injuries or property damage.

WARNING: Check the tree for damaged

or dead branches that could fall and hit you during felling.

tree and make sure there are no obstructions in your planned path of retreat. Clear path

of safe retreat approximately 135 ° from planned line of fall. The retreat path should

extend back and diagonally to the rear of the expected line of fall.

[]

Before felling is started, consider the force and

direction of the wind, the lean and balance of the tree, and the location of large limbs. These things influence the direction inwhich the tree

will fall. Do not try to fell a tree along a line different from its natural line of fall.

[]

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.

[]

Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails,

staples, and wire from the tree where felling cuts are to be made.

[]

Notched Undercut. Cut a notch about 1/3 the diameter of the tree, perpendicular to the

direction of fall. Make the cuts of the notch so they intersect at a right angle to the line of fall.

WARNING: Periodically glance at the top

of the tree during the backcut to assure the tree is going to fall in the desired direction.

WARNING: If the tree starts to fall in the

wrong direction, or if the saw gets caught or hung up during the fall, leave the saw and

save yourself!

[] Felling a tree - When bucking and felling

operations are being performed by two or more persons, at the same time, the felling operation

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 utility company should be notified immediately.

[] Before any cuts are started, pick your escape

route (or routes in case the intended route is blocked); clear the immediate area around the

15 - English

Page 16

This notch should be cleaned out to leave a straight line. To keep the weight of the wood

off the saw, always make the lower cut of the notch before the upper cut.

See figure 14. [] Felling Backcut. The backcut is always made

level and horizontal, and at a minimum of 2 in. above the horizontal cut of the notch.

[] Never cut through to the notch. Always

leave a band of wood between the notch and backcut (approximately 2 in. or 1/10 the

diameter of the tree). This is called "hinge" or "hingewood." It controls the fall of the tree and prevents slipping or twisting or shoot-

back of the tree off the stump.

[] On large diameter trees, stop the back cut

before it is deep enough for the tree to either fall or settle back on the stump. Then insert

soft wooden or plastic wedges into the cut so they do not touch the chain. The wedges can

be driven in, little by little, to help jack the tree over.

BUCKING

See figure 17-18.

Bucking is the term used for cutting a fallen tree to the desired log length.

[] Always make sure your footing is secure and

your weight is distributed evenly on both feet.

[] Cut only one log at a time. [] Support small logs on a saw horse or another

log while bucking.

[] Keep a clear cutting area. Make sure that no

objects can contact the guide bar nose and chain during cutting, this can cause kickback.

Refer to Precautions Against Kickback

earlier in this manual.

[] As tree starts to fall, stop the chain saw

and put it down immediately. Retreat along

the cleared path, but watch the action in

case something falls your way. Be alert for overhead limbs or branches that may fall and

watch your footing.

,_ WARNING: Never cut through to the notch

when making a backcut. The hinge con- trois the fall of the tree, this is the section of wood between the notch and backcut.

16 - English

Page 17

[] When bucking on a slope, always stand

on the uphill side of the log. To maintain complete control of the chain saw when

cutting through the log, release the cutting pressure near the end of the cut without relaxing your grip on the chain saw handles.

Do not let the chain contact the ground. After completing the cut, wait for the saw chain to

stop before you move the chain saw. Always stop the motor before moving from tree to

tree.

[] Sometimes it is impossible to avoid pinching

(with just standard cutting techniques) or difficult to predict which way a log will settle

when cut. To avoid pinching while cutting, rotate or move the log so that the pinch is

eliminated.

BUCKING LOGS UNDER STRESS

See figure 19. When the log is supported along its entire

length, it should be cut from the top or overbucking.

When the log is supported on one end,

cut 1/3 the diameter from the underside or underbucking. Then make the finishing cut by

overbucking to meet the first cut. As the log is being cut, it will tend to bend. The

saw can become pinched or hung in the log if you make the first cut deeper than 1/3 of the

diameter of the log. Give special attention to logs under stress to

prevent the bar and chain from pinching.

TYPES OF CUTTING USED

See figure 20. OVERBUCKING

Begin on the top side of the log with the bottom of the saw against the log; exert light pressure

downward. Note that the saw will tend to pull away from you.

UNDERBUCKING

Begin on the under side of the log with the top of the saw against the log; exert light pressure

upward. During underbucking, the saw will

tend to push back at you. Be prepared for this

reaction and hold the saw firmly to maintain control.

When bucking on a slope, always stand on

the uphill side of the log.

When "cutting through," to maintain complete

control of the chain saw, release the cutting pressure near the end of the cut without relaxing

your grip on the chain saw handles. Do not let the chain contact the ground. After completing

the cut, wait for the saw chain to stop before you move the chain saw. Always stop the motor before moving from tree to tree.

17 - English

Page 18

WARNING: Never climb into a tree to limb

or prune. Do not stand on ladders, plat- forms, a log, or in any position which can cause you to lose your balance or control of

the saw.

LIMBING

See figure 21. Limbing is removing branches from a fallen tree.

[] Work slowly, keeping both hands on the

chain saw with a firm grip. Always make sure your footing is secure and your weight is

distributed evenly on both feet.

[] Leave the larger support limbs under the tree

to keep the tree off the ground while cutting.

[] Limbs should be cut one at a time. Remove

the cut limbs from the work area often to help

keep the work area clean and safe.

[] Branches under tension should be cut from

the bottom up to avoid binding the chain saw.

[] Keep the tree between you and the chain saw

while limbing. Cut from the side of the tree opposite the branch you are cutting.

PRUNING

See figure 22.

Pruning is trimming limbs from a live tree. [] Work slowly, keeping both hands on the

chain saw with a firm grip. Always make sure your footing is secure and your weight is

distributed evenly on both feet.

[] Do not cut from a ladder, this is extremely

dangerous. Leave this operation for professionals.

[] Do not cut above shoulder height as a saw

held higher is difficult to control against kickback.

[] When pruning trees it is important not to

make the finishing cut next to the main limb or trunk until you have cut off the limb further

out to reduce the weight. This prevents stripping the bark from the main member.

[] Underbuck the branch 1/3 through for your

first cut.

[] Your second cut should overbuck to drop the

branch off.

[] Now make your finishing cut smoothly and

neatly against the main member so the bark will grow back to seal the wound.

WARNING: If the limbs to be pruned are

above shoulder height, hire a professional to perform the pruning.

SPRINGPOLES

See figure 23.

A spnngpole is any log, branch, rooted stump, or sapling which is bent under tension by other

wood so that it springs back if the wood holding it is cut or removed. On a fallen tree, a rooted

stump has a high potential of springing back to the upright position during the bucking cut to separate the log from the stump. Watch out for

springpoles, they are dangerous.

_h, WARNING: Springpoles are dangerous

and could strike the operator, causing the operator to lose control of the chain saw.

This could result in severe or fatal injury to the operator.

WARNING: When servicing, use only iden-

tical replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product

damage.

19 - English

Page 20

For Lithium-ion batteries:

[] Craftsman 40 V lithium-ion batteries are designed with

features that protect the lithium-ion cells and maximize battery life. Under some operating conditions, these built-in

features may cause the battery and the toot it is powering to act differently from nickel-cadmium batteries.

[] During some applications, the battery electronics may

signal the battery to shut down, and cause the toot to stop running. To reset the battery and toot, place the power

switch in the OFF position; then start the unit and resume normal operation.

[] If placing the power switch in the OFF position does not

reset the battery and toot, the battery pack is depleted.If depleted, the battery pack will begin charging when placed on the lithium-ion charger.

BATTERY PACK REMOVAL AND PREPARATION FOR RECYCLING

See figure 24-28.

_. WARNING: Upon removal, cover the bat-

tery pack's terminals with heavy-duty ad-

hesive tape. Do not attempt to destroy or disassemble battery pack or remove any

of its components. Lithium-ion and nickel- cadmium batteries must be recycled or

disposed of properly. Also, never touch both

terminals with metal objects and/or body

parts as short circuit may result. Keep away

from children. Failure to comply with these warnings could result in fire and/or serious

injury

REPLACING BAR AND CHAIN

[] Remove the battery pack before you do any

work on the chain saw.

[] Remove the hex key from the storage area

and use it to remove the chain cover screw, washer and chain cover from the chain saw.

[] Remove the bar and chain from the mounting

surface.

[] Remove the old chain from the bar. [] Lay out the new saw chain in a loop and

straighten any kinks. The cutters should face in the direction of chain rotation. If they face

the opposite direction, turn the loop over.

[] Place the chain drive links into the bar groove.

Position the chain so there is a loop at the back of the bar. Hold the chain in position on the bar and place the loop around the sprock-

et of the chain saw. Fit the bar flush against the mounting surface so that the bar stud is in the long slot of the bar.

WARNING: Remove the battery pack from

the chain saw and make sure the chain has

stopped before you do any work or mak- ing any adjustments on the saw. Failure to

do so may result in accidental starting and possible serious injury.

_IL WARNING: The safety instructions in this

section are to protect the user from serious personal injury.

_IL WARNING: Always wear gloves when han-

dling the bar and chain; these components are sharp and may contain burrs.

,_ WARNING: Never touch or adjust the

chain while the motor is running. The saw chain is very sharp; always wear protective

gloves when performing maintenance to the chain to avoid possible serious lacerations.

RECOMMENDED BAR AND CHAIN COMBINATIONS

Bar Part Number - 12in. 120SDEA041

Chain Part Number

91 P045X/91 PX045X

[] Replace the chain cover, washer and chain

cover screw. Tighten the chain cover screw finger tight only. The bar must be free to

move for tension adjustment.

[] Remove all the slack from the chain by turn-

ing the chain tensioning screw clockwise until the chain seats snugly against the bar with

the drive links in the bar groove.

[] Lift the tip of the guide bar up to check for

sag. Release the tip of the guide bar and turn the chain tensioning screw 1/2 turn clock-

wise. Repeat this process until sag does not exist.

[] Hold the tip of the guide bar up and tighten

the bar mounting screw securely.

[] Chain is correctly tensioned when there is no

sag on the underside of the guide bar, the chain is snug, but it can be turned by hand

without binding.

CHAIN TENSION

See figure 29-30. [] Stop the motor before setting the chain ten=

sion. Make sure the guide bar screw is loos- ened to finger tight, turn the chain tensioner

clockwise to tension the chain. Refer to Re- placing Bar and Chain earlier in this manual

for additional information.

[] A cold chain is correctly tensioned when there

is no slack on the underside of the guide bar, the chain is snug, but it can be turned by hand without binding.

[] Chain must be re-tensioned whenever the

flats on the drive links hang out of the bar groove.

[] During normal saw operation, the temperature

of the chain will increase. The drive links of a correctly tensioned warm chain will hang ap=

proximately .050 in. out of the bar groove.

NOTE: New chain tends to stretch, check chain tension frequently and tension as required.

21 - English

Page 22

CAUTION: Chain tensioned while warm, may be too tight upon cooling. Check the "cold

tension" before next use.

CHAIN MAINTENANCE

See figure 31-32.

_1_ WARNING: Remove the battery pack and

make sure the chain has stopped before you do any work or making any adjustments on the saw. Failure to do so may result in

accidental starting and possible serious injury.

Use only low-kickback chain on this saw. This fast-cutting chain will provide kickback reduc-

tion when properly maintained. For smooth and fast cutting, chain needs to be

maintained properly. The chain requires sharp- ening when the wood chips are small and pow-

dery, the chain must be forced through the wood during cutting, or the chain cuts to one side.

During maintenance of your chain, consider the following:

[] Improper filing angle of the side plate can

increase the risk of a severe kickback.

[] Raker (depth gauge) clearance. Too low

increases the potential for kickback. Not low enough decreases cutting ability.

[] If cutter teeth have hit hard objects such

as nails and stones, or have been abraded by mud or sand on the wood, have service

dealer sharpen chain.

NOTE: Inspect the drive sprocket for wear or damage when replacing the chain. If signs of wear or damage are present in the areas indi-

cated, have the drive sprocket replaced by a Craftsman Service dealer.

HOW TO SHARPEN THE CUTTERS See figure 33-34.

Be careful to file all cutters to the specified an- gles and to the same length, as fast cutting can

be obtained only when all cutters are uniform. [] Wear gloves for protection. Properly tension

the chain prior to sharpening. Refer to Chain Tension Section earlier in this manual. Do all

of your filing at the mid-point of the bar.

[] Use a 5/32 in. diameter round file and holder. [] Keep the file level with the top plate of the

tooth. Do not let the file dip or rock.

[] Using light but firm pressure, stroke towards

the front corner of the tooth.

[] Lift file away from the steel on each return

stroke.

22 - English

Page 23

[] Put a few firm strokes on every tooth. File all

left hand cutters in one direction. Then move to the other side and file the right hand cut-

ters in the opposite direction. Occasionally remove filings from the file with a wire brush.

_, WARNING: Improper chain sharpening

increases the potential of kickback.

_, WARNING: Failure to replace or repair

damaged chain can cause serious injury.

_, WARNING: The saw chain is very sharp,

always wear protective gloves when per= forming maintenance to the chain.

TOP PLATE FILING ANGLE See figure 35.

[] CORRECT 30° - File holders are marked with

guide marks to align file properly to produce correct top plate angle.

[] LESS THAN 30 ° - For Cross Cutting. [] MORE THAN 30 ° - Feathered Edge Dulls

Quickly.

SiDE PLATE ANGLE

See figure 36. [] CORRECT - 80° Produced automatically if

correct diameter file is used in file holder.

[] HOOK - "Grabs" and dulls quickly. Increases

potential of KICKBACK.

Results from using a file with diameter too small, or file held too low.

[] BACKWARD SLOPE - Needs too much feed

pressure, causes excessive wear to bar and chain.

Results from using a file with diameter too

large, or file held too high.

DEPTH GAUGE CLEARANCE

See figure 37-39. [] The Raker (depth gauge) should be main-

tained at a clearance of .025 in. Use a depth gauge tool for checking the depth gauge

clearances.

23 - English

Page 24

[] Every time the chain is filed, check the depth

gauge clearance,

Use a Flat File and a Depth Gauge Jointer to lower all gauges uniformly. Depth gauge jointers

are available in .020 in. to .035 in. Use a .025 in. depth gauge jointer. After lowering each depth

gauge, restore original shape by rounding the front. Be careful not to damage adjoining drive

links with the edge of the file. Depth gauges must be adjusted with the flat file

in the same direction the adjoining cutter was filed with the round file. Use care not to contact

cutter face with flat file when adjusting depth gauges.

GUIDE BAR MAINTENANCE

See figure 40.

When the guide bar shows signs of wear, re-

verse it on the saw to distribute the wear for maximum bar life. The bar should be cleaned

every day of use and checked for wear and damage.

Feathering or burring of the bar rails is a nor- mal process of bar wear. Such faults should be

smoothed with a file as soon as they occur.

A bar with any of the following faults should be

replaced. [] Wear inside the bar rails which permits the

chain to lay over sideways.

[] Bent guide bar. [] Cracked or broken rails.

[] Spread rails. in addition, guide bars with a sprocket at their

tip must be lubricated weekly with a grease sy-

ringe to extend the guide bar life. Using a grease syringe, lubricate weekly in the lubricating hole.

Turn the guide bar and check that the lubrication

holes and chain groove are free from impurities.

24 - English

Page 25

REVERSING THE GUIDE BAR

[] Remove the chain from the bar and turn the

bar over. NOTE: Bottom of bar should not be on top.

[] Replace the chain on the bar. Refer to As=

sernbling the Bar and Chain earlier in this

manual for specific information. [] Tighten the screw with your finger. [] From the finger-tight position, tighten the

screw an additional 3/4 of a turn using a

wrench.

,_ WARNING: Remove the battery pack and

make sure the chain has stopped before you do any work or making any adjustments

on the saw. Failure to do so may result in accidental starting and possible serious

injury.

TRANSPORTING AND STORING

See figure 41.

[] Do not store or transport the chain saw when

it is running. The chain saw should always be idle before storing or transporting.

[] Always place the chain cover on the bar and

chain before storing or transporting the chain saw. Use caution to avoid the sharp teeth of

the chain.

[] Clean the chain saw thoroughly before stor-

ing. Store the chain saw indoors, in a dry place that is locked and/or inaccessible to

children.

[] Keep away from corrosive agents such as

garden chemicals and de-icing salts.
