SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR CHAIN SAW USERS
(ANSI B175.1-2000, Annex C. CAN/CSA-Z62.1-03)
2-1. KICKBACK SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar touches an object, or when the wood closes in and pinch­es the saw chain in the cut. If bar tip makes contact with something it may cause a lightning-fast reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the operator. Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator.Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the saw, which could result in serious 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.
1. With a basic understanding of kickback, you can reduce or eliminate the element of surprise. Sudden surprise contributes to accidents.
2. Keep a good firm grip on the saw with both hands, the right hand on the rear handle, and the left hand on the front handle, when the engine is running. Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw handles. A firm grip will help you reduce kickback and maintain control of the saw. Don’t let go.
3. 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, or any other obstruction which could be hit while you are operating the saw.
4. Cut at high engine speeds.
5. Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.
6. Follow manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw chain.
7. Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer or the equivalent.

4. Use caution when handling fuel. Move the chain saw at least 9.1m (30 feet) from the fueling point before starting the engine.
5. DO NOT allow other persons to be near when starting or cutting with the chain saw. Keep bystanders and animals out of the work area.
6. DO NOT start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing, and a planned retreat path from the falling tree.
7. Keep all parts of your body away from the saw chain when the engine is running.
8. Before you start the engine, make sure that the saw chain is not contacting anything.
9. Carry the chain saw with the engine stopped, the guide bar and saw chain to the rear, and the muffler away from your body.
10. DO NOT operate a chain saw that is damaged, improperly adjusted, or not completely and securely assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops moving when the throttle control trigger is released.
11. Shut off the engine before setting the chain saw down.
12. Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and saplings because slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped toward you or pull you off balance.
13. When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for springback so that you will not be struck when the ten­sion in the wood fibers is released.
14. Keep the handles dry, clean, and free of oil or fuel mix-

2-4. MORE ABOUT KICKBACK
WARNING
DANGER! BEWARE OF KICKBACK!
Kickback can lead to dangerous loss of control of the chain saw and result in serious or fatal injury to the saw operator or to anyone standing close by. Always be alert. Rotational kickback and pinch-kickback are major chain saw opera­tional dangers and the leading cause of most accidents.

2-4B
KICKBACK may occur when the NOSE or TIP of the guide bar touches an object, or when wood closes in and pinch­es the saw chain in the cut. Tip contact in some cases may cause a lightning-fast reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back toward the operator. PINCHING the saw chain along the BOTTOM of the guide bar may PULL the saw forward away from the operator. PINCHING the saw chain along the TOP of the guide bar may PUSH the guide bar rapidly back toward the operator. Any of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the saw, which could result in serious personal injury.

3-4. SAW CHAIN TENSION ADJUSTMENT
Proper tension of saw chain is extremely important and must be checked before starting, as well as during any cut­ting operation. Taking the time to make needed adjustments to the saw chain will result in improved cutting performance and pro­longed chain life.
WARNING
Always wear heavy duty gloves when handling saw chain or making saw chain adjustments.
TO ADJUST SAW CHAIN:
1. Hold nose of guide bar up and turn adjustment chain ring (A) CLOCKWISE to increase chain tension. Turning chain ring (A) COUNTERCLOCKWISE will decrease amount of tension on chain. Ensure the chain fits snugly all the way around the guide bar. (Fig. 3-4A)
2. After making adjustment, and while still holding nose of bar in the uppermost position, tighten the bar retaining button (B) securely. Chain has proper ten­sion when it has a snug fit all around and can be pulled around by gloved hand. (Fig. 3-BA)
NOTE: If chain is difficult to rotate on guide bar or if it binds, too much tension has been applied. This requires minor adjustment as follows: A. Loosen the bar retaining knob so it is finger tight.
Decrease tension by turning the bar adjustment chain ring COUNTERCLOCKWISE slowly. Move chain back and forth on bar. Continue to adjust until chain rotates freely, but fits snugly. Increase tension by turning bar adjustment chain ring CLOCKWISE.
B. When saw chain has proper tension, hold nose of bar
in uppermost position and tighten the bar retaining nut securely.
A
CAUTION
w saw chain stretches, requiring adjustment after as
A ne few as 5 cuts. This is normal with a new chain, and the interval between future adjustments will lengthen quickly.
CAUTION
If saw chain is TOO LOOSE or TOO TIGHT, the sprocket, bar, chain, and crankshaft bearings will wear more rapidly. Study Figure 3-4B for information concerning correct cold tension (A), correct warm tension (B), and as a guide for when saw chain needs adjustment (C).

6-1.FELLING
elling is the term for cutting down a tree. Small trees up to
F 6-7 inches (15-18cm) in diameter are usually cut in a single cut. Larger trees require notch cuts. Notch cuts determine the direction the tree will fall.
FELLING A TREE:
WARNING
A retreat path (A) should be planned and cleared as nec­essary before cuts are started. The retreat path should extend back and diagonally to the rear of the expected line of fall, as illustrated in Figure 6-1A.
CAUTION
If felling a tree on sloping ground, 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.
NOTE: Direction of fall (B) is controlled by the notching cut. Before any cuts are made, consider the location of larger branches and natural lean of the tree to determine the way the tree will fall.
WARNING
Do not cut down a tree during high or changing winds or if there is a danger to property. Consult a tree professional. Do not cut down a tree if there is a danger of striking utility wires; notify the utility company before making any cuts.
5-5A
GENERAL GUIDELINES FOR FELLING TREES:

Normally felling consists of 2 main cutting operations, notching (C) and making the felling cut (D). Start making the upper notch cut (C) on the side of the tree facing the felling direction (E). Be sure you don t make the lower cut too deep into the trunk. The notch (C) should be deep enough to create a hinge (F) of sufficient width and strength. enough to direct the fall of the tree for as long as possible.
The notch should be wide
WARNING
Never walk in front of a tree that has been notched. Make the felling cut (D) from the other side of the tree and
1.5 - 2.0 inches (3-5 cm) above the edge of the notch (C) (Figure 6-1B). Never saw completely through the trunk. Always leave a hinge
. The hinge guides the tree. If the trunk is completely cut through, control over the felling direction is lost. Insert a wedge or felling lever in the cut well before the tree becomes unstable and starts to move. This will prevent the

WARNING
Never cut tree limbs while standing on tree trunk.

6-3. BUCKING
Bucking is cutting a fallen log into lengths. Make sure you have a good footing and stand uphill of the log when cutting on sloping ground. If possible, the log should be supported so that the end to be cut off is not resting on the ground. If the log is supported at both ends and you must cut in the middle, make a downward cut halfway through the log and then make the undercut. This will prevent the log from pinching the bar and chain. Be careful that the chain does not cut into the ground when bucking as this causes rapid dulling of the chain. When bucking on a slope, always stand on the uphill side.
1. Log supported along entire length: Cut from top (over­k), being careful to a
uc
b (Figure 6-3A).
2. Log supported on 1 end: First, cut from bottom (under-
buck) 1/3 diameter of log to avoid splintering. Second, cut from above (overbuck) to meet first cut and avoid pinching (Figure 6-3B).
3. Log supported on both ends: First, overbuck 1/3 diam-
eter of log to avoid splintering. Second, underbuck to meet first cut and avoid pinching (Figure 6-3C).
NOTE: The best way to hold a log while bucking is to use a sawhorse. When this is not possible, the log should be raised and supported by the limb stumps or by using sup­porting logs. Be sure the log being cut is securely support­ed.

6-4.BUCKING USING A SAWHORSE
For personal safety and ease of cutting, the correct position for vertical bucking is essential (Figure 6-4A).
VERTICAL CUTTING:
A. Hold the saw firmly with both hands and keep the saw
to the right of your body while cutting. B. Keep the left arm as straight as possible. C. Keep weight on both feet.
CAUTION
While the saw is cutting, be sure the chain and bar are being properly lubricated.

8-1. GUIDE BAR MAINTENANCE
Frequent lubrication of the guide bar (railed bar which sup­ports and carries the saw chain) sprocket tip is required. Proper maintenance of the guide bar, as explained in this section, is essential to keep your saw in good working con­dition.
SPROCKET TIP LUBRICATION:
CAUTION
The sprocket tip on your new saw has been pre-lubricated at the factory. Failure to lubricate the guide bar sprocket tip as explained below will result in poor performance and seizure, voiding the manufacturer’s warranty. Lubrication of the sprocket tip is recommended after 10 hours of use or once a week, which ever occurs first. Always thoroughly clean guide bar sprocket tip before lubri­cation.
TOOLS FOR LUBRICATION:
The Lube Gun (optional) is recommended for applying grease to the guide bar sprocket tip. The Lube Gun is equipped with a needle nose tip which is necessary for the efficient application of grease to the sprocket tip.
TO LUBRICATE SPROCKET TIP:
WARNING
Wear heavy duty work gloves when handling the bar and chain.
1. Move the STOP switch down. NOTE: It is not necessary to remove the saw chain to lubri-
cate the guide bar sprocket tip. Lubrication can be done on the job.
2. Clean the guide bar sprocket tip.
3. Using the Lube Gun (optional), insert tip of lube gun into the lubr appears at outside edge of sprocket tip (Figure 8-1A).
4. Rotate saw chain by hand. Repeat lubrication proce­dure until the entire sprocket tip has been greased.

GUIDE BAR MAINTENANCE:
Most guide bar problems can be prevented merely by keep­ing the chain saw well maintained. Insufficient guide bar lubrication and operating the saw with chain that is TOO TIGHT will contribute to rapid bar wear.
rease until it
To help minimize bar wear, the following guide bar mainte­nance procedures are recommended. BAR WEAR - Turn guide bar frequently at regular intervals
or example, after 5 hours of use), to ensure even wear on
(f top and bottom of bar. BAR GROOVES - Bar grooves (or rails which support and carry the chain) should be cleaned if saw has been used heavily or if saw chain appears dirty. Rails should always be cleaned every time saw chain is removed. OIL PASSAGES - Oil passages on the bar should be cleaned to ensure proper lubrication of the bar and chain during operation. NOTE: The condition of the oil passages can be easily checked. If the passages are clear, the chain will automati­cally give off a spray of oil within seconds of starting the

8-2. CHAIN MAINTENANCE
CHAIN TENSION:
Check the chain tension frequently and adjust as often as necessary to keep the chain snug on the bar, but loose enough to be pulled around by hand.
BREAKING IN A NEW SAW CHAIN:
A new chain and bar will need chain readjustment after as few as 5 cuts.This is normal during the break-in period, and the interval between future adjustments will begin to length­en quickly.
WARNING
Never have more than 3 links removed from a loop of chain. This could cause damage to the sprocket.
CHAIN LUBRICATION:
Always make sure the automatic oiler system is working properly. Keep the oil tank filled with Genuine McCulloch Chain, Bar and Sprocket Oil. Adequate lubrication of the bar and chain during cutting operations is essential to minimize friction with the guide bar. Never starve the bar and chain of lubricating oil. Running the saw dry or with too little oil will decrease cutting efficien­cy, shorten saw chain life, cause rapid dulling of chain, and lead to excessive wear of bar from overheating.Too little oil is evidenced by smoke or bar discoloration.
CHAIN SHARPENING:
Chain sharpening requires special tools to ensure that cut­ters are sharpened at the correct angle and depth. For the inexperienced chain saw user, we recommend that the saw chain be professionally sharpened by the nearest Authorized Service Center.If you feel comfortable sharpen­ing your own saw chain, special tools are available from the nearest Authorized Service Center.
