z 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.
z Always hold the chain saw with your right hand on the rear handle and your 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.
z 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.
zDo not operate a chain saw in a tree. Operation of a chain saw while up in a tree may result
in personal injury.
z 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.
zWhen cutting a limb that is under tension be alert for spring back. When the tension in the
wood fibres is released the spring loaded limb may strike the operator and/or throw the
chain saw out of control.
zUse 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.
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 please always fit the guide bar cover. Proper handling
of the chain saw will reduce the likelihood of accidental contact with the moving saw chain
.
zFollow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning and changing accessories. Improperly
tensioned or lubricated chain may either break or increase the chance for kickback.
zKeep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. Greasy, oily handles are slippery
causing loss of control.
z 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.
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
Remark: Above are all assembled in the standard delivery.

ASSEMBLY
Chain Tensioning Check (continued)
If loose chain is found before use, please follow up the instruction below.
(If tight chain is found before use, please do the opposite to the below instruction.)
Firstly slightly tighten the Knob (9) clockwise. (Fig.7)
Do not tighten the locking nut completely and saw chain tensioning is required first.
NOTE: The saw chain (4) has not yet been tensioned. Tension the chain as described under
“Saw chain tensioning”. After operating the product for approximately 1 hour, adjust the
chain tension again.
Saw Chain Tensioning
Always check the saw chain tension before use, after first cuts and regularly during use
approximately every five cuts. After initial operation, new chains can lengthen considerably.
This is normal during the break-in period and the interval between future adjustments will
lengthen quickly.
Set the product on a suitable flat surface.
Turn the tension knob (8)clockwise until the chain “tie straps” are adjust touching the bottom
edge of the guide bar(5) Fig.(8).

OPERATION
General Operation
Check the product, its power cord and plug as well as accessories for damage before each
use. Do not use the product if it is damaged or shows wear.
Double check that accessories and the guide bar/saw chain are properly fixed.
Always hold the product by its handle. Keep the handle dry to ensure safe support.
Ensure that the air vents are always unobstructed and clear. Clean them if necessary with a
soft brush. Blocked air vents may lead to overhearing and damage the product.
Switch the product off immediately if you are disturbed while working by other people
entering the working area. Always let the product come to complete stop before putting it
down.
Do not overwork yourself. Take regular breaks to ensure you can concentrate on the work
and have full control over the product.
Basic Operating/Cutting Procedure
To become proficient attend a recognized chain saw training course to learn how to
operate chain saws safely and effectively. Familiarize yourself with all the controls and
switches. Practice all movements with the product switched off.
Always hold the products firmly with both hands. Hold the front grip with your left hand and
the rear grip with your right hand. Fully grip both handles at all times during operation. Never
operate the product using only one hand.
Ensure the power cord is located to the rear, away from the chain and the wood and is
positioned so that it cannot be caught on branches or similar objects during cutting.
Only use the product with a secure stance. Hold the product to the right-hand side of your
body (Fig. 20).
The Saw chain (4) must be running at full speed before it makes contact with the wood. Use
the spike bumper (21) to secure the product onto the wood before starting to cut and use it
as a leverage point while cutting (Fig. 21).
Reset the spike bumper at a low point when cutting thicker logs by pulling the product slightly
backwards until the gripping teeth release, and then reposition at lower level to continue
18
Page 19
OPERATION
Basic Operating/Cutting Procedure (continued)
sawing. Do not remove the product completely from the wood.
Do not force the saw chain while cutting. Let the chain do the work using the gripping teeth
to apply minimal leverage pressure.
Do not operate the product with your arms fully extended or attempt to saw areas which are
difficult to reach, or while on a ladder. Never use the product above shoulder height (Fig.
22).
Optimum sawing is achieved if the chain speed remains constant during cutting.
Be careful when reaching the end of the cut. The weight of the product may change
unexpectedly as it cuts free from the wood. This can cause accidents to the legs and feet.
Always remove the product from a wood cut while the product is running.
Kickback
WARNING! Beware of kickback! Kickback can lead to dangerous loss of control of the
product and result in serious or fatal injury to the operator or anyone standing close by!
Always be alert because rotational kickback and pinch kickback are major product
operational dangerous and the leading cause of most accidents!
Kickback may occur if the nose or the tip of the guide bar touches an object, or if wood
pinches the saw chain in the cut.
In some cases, contact with the tip of the guide bar(5) may cause a lightning-fast reverse
reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back toward the operator (Figs. 23, 24, 25).
19
Page 20
OPERATION
Kickback (continued)
Pinching of the saw chain (4) along the bottom of the guide bar (5) may pull the product
forward away from the operator (Fig. 26)
Pinching of the saw chain (4) along the top of the guide bar (5) may push the guide bar
rapidly back toward the operator (Fig.27).
Any of these reactions may cause a loss of control over the product, which could result in
serious personal injury or even death.
With a basic understanding of “kickback”, the element of surprise can be reduced or
eliminated. Sudden surprise contributes to the majority of accidents.
Ke ep a good firm grip on the product with both hands, your right hand on the rear han d le (1 8 )
and your left hand on the front handle (1), when the motor is running. Maintain a firm grip
with your thumbs and fingers encircling the handles. A firm grip will help you reduce
“kickback” and maintain control of the product.
You should read all the safety warnings and user instructions carefully before attempting to
operate this product.
To Avoid Kickback:
Saw with the guide bar at a flat angle.
Never work with a loose, widely stretched or heavily worn chain.
20
Page 21
OPERATION
Kickback (continued)
Ensure the chain is sharpened correctly.
Never saw above shoulder height.
Never work with the tip of the guide bar.
Always hold the product firmly with both hands.
Always use a low kickback chain.
Apply the metal gripping teeth for leverage.
Ensure correct chain tension.
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 product 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 (Fig.
28).
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.

OPERATION
Felling a Tree (continued)
Notching Undercut
Make the notch (Fig. 19 B) 1/3 the diameter of the tree, perpendicular to the direction of falls
(Fig. 29). Make the lower horizontal notching cut first. This will help to avoid pinching either
the saw chain or the guide bar when the second notch is being made.
Felling Back Cut
Make the felling back cut(Fig. 29 A) at least 50mm higher than the horizontal notching cut.
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 (Fig. 29 C) 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 to open the cut and drop the tree along the desired line of fall.
Limbing and Pruning
When the tree begins to fall remove the product from the cut, stop the motor, put the
product down, then use the retreat path planned. Be alert for overhead limbs falling and
watch your footing.
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 (Fig. 30). Branches under
tension should be cut from the bottom up to avoid binding the product.

OPERATION
Bucking a Log (continued)
When the log is supported on both ends (Fig. 33), cut 1/3 the diameter from the top
(overbuck). Then make the finished cut by underbucking the lower 2/3 to meet the first out.
When bucking on a slope always stand on the uphill side of the log (Fig. 34). When “cutting
through”, to maintain complete control release the cutting pressure near the end of the cut
without relaxing your grip on the product handles. Don’t let the chain contact the ground.
After completing the cut, wait for the saw chain to stop before you move the product.
Always stop the motor before moving from the tree to tree.
Support small logs on a sawing stand or another log while bucking (Fig. 35).
If the diameter is large enough for you to insert a soft bucking wedge without touching the
chain, you should use the wedge to hold the cut open to prevent pinching (Fig. 36).

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Guide Bar and Saw Chain Maintenance
Most guide bar problems can be prevented merely by keeping the product well maintained.
Incorrect filling and non-standard cutter and depth gauges settings are the causes of most
guide bar problems, primarily resulting in uneven bar wear. As the bar wears unevenly, the
rails widen, which may cause the chain to clatter and make it difficult to complete straight
cuts. If the guide bar is insufficiently lubricated and the product is operated with a saw chain
which is too tight, this will contribute to rapid bar wear. To help minimize bar wear,
maintenance of the guide bar as well as the saw chain is recommended.
Disassemble the guide bar and saw chain in reversed order from assembly.
Check the oiling port (22) for clogging and clean if necessary to ensure proper lubrication of
the guide bar and saw chain during operation. Use a soft wire small enough to insert into the
oil discharge hole.
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 the product starting. Your
product is equipped with an automatic oiling system.
Check the drive sprocket (20). If it is worm or damaged due to strain, have it replaced by an
authorized service agent.
Clear residue from the rails on the guide bar (5) using a screwdriver, putty knife, wire brush or
other similar tool. This will keep the oil passages open to provide proper lubrication to the bar
(5) and chain(4) (Fig. 38).
Check the guide bar “rail” for wear: Hold a ruler (straight edge” against the side of the guide
bar and “cutter side plates”. If there is a gap between the ruler and guide bar the guide bar
“rail” is normal. If there is no gap (ruler flush against the side of the guide bar) the guide bar
“rail) is worn and needs to be replaced with a new one of the same type (Fig. 39).
Turn the guide bar 180°to allow even wear, thereby extending the life span of the guide
bar(5).
Check the saw chain for possible wear and damages. Replace it with a new one if required.
Experienced users can sharpen a dull saw chain (see section “Saw chain sharpening”
below).
Refit the saw chain (4) and the guide bar (5) as described under “Assembly”.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
Saw Chain Sharpening (continued)
File at an angle perpendicular to the bar, and at an angle of 25 °to the direction of
travel(Fig.41).
File the each tooth from the inside towards outside only. File one side of the chain first than
turn the saw around and repeat the process.
Sharpen each tooth equally by using the same number of strokes.
Keep all cutter lengths equal. Check the safety depth gauge height every 5 sharpenings. If
the depth gauges are also trimmed it is essential that the original profile is restored.
Use a dept gauge measuring instrument to check the height of the depth gauge. Depth
gauge measuring jigs are available from most reputable tool merchants (Fig. 42).
Chain and Bar Replacement
