SAFETY FEATURES
Numbers preceding the descriptions correspond with the
numbers above to help you locate the safety feature.
2 LOW KICKBACK SAW CHAIN helps significantly
reduce kickback, or the intensity of kickback, due to specially designed depth gauges and guard links.
4 SPARK ARRESTER SCREEN retains carbon and
other flammable particles over 0.023 inches (0.6mm) in size from engine exhaust flow. Compliance with local, state and federal laws and/or regulations governing the use of a spark arrester screen is the user's responsibility. See Safety Precautions for
additional information.
5 CHAIN BRAKE® LEVER / HAND GUARD protects the
operator's left hand in the event it slips off the front handle while saw is running.
5 CHAIN BRAKE® is a safety feature designed to
reduce the possibility of injury due to kickback by stopping a moving saw chain in milliseconds. It is activated by the CHAIN BRAKE® lever.
10 STOP SWITCH immediately stops the engine when
tripped. Stop switch must be pushed to ON position to start or restart engine.
11 SAFETY LATCH prevents accidental acceleration of
the engine. Throttle trigger (19) cannot be squeezed unless the safety latch is depressed.

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.

Using Fuel Additives
The bottle of 2-cycle oil that came with your unit
contains a fuel additive which will help inhibit corrosion and minimize the formation of gum deposits. It is
recommended that you use our 2-cycle oil with this unit. If unavailable, use a good 2-cycle oil designed for
air-cooled engines along with a fuel additive, such as STA-BIL _'Gas Stabilizer or an equivalent. Add 0.8 oz. (23 ml.) of fuel additive per gallon of fuel according to the
instructions on the container. NEVER add fuel additives directly to the unit's fuel tank.

Limbing a tree is the process of removing the branches
from a fallen tree. Do not remove supporting limbs (A)
until after the log is bucked (cut) into lengths (Fig. 12). Branches under tension should be cut from the bottom
up to avoid binding the chain saw.
When bucking on a dope, always stand on the uphill side.
1. Log supported aiong entire length: Cut from top (overbuck), being careful to avoid cutting into the ground (Fig. 13).
2. Log supported on 1 end: First, cut from bottom (underbuck) 1/3 diameter of log to avoid splintering. Second, cut from above (overbuck) to meet first cut and avoid pinching (Fig. 14).
3. Log supported on both ends: First, overbuck 1/3 diameter of log to avoid splintering. Second, underbuck
to meet first cut and avoid pinching (Fig. 15).
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.

BUCKmNG
Bucking is cutting a fallen log into lengths. Make sure you have a good footing and stand uphill of the log when cutting on doping 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 wiii
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.

SAW CHAroN TENSION ADJUSTMENT
WARNING: Alwaysuse
when handling the saw chain.
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.
To adjust the saw chain:
1. Loosen bar nut, then hold nose of guide bar up and turn adjustment screw (D) CLOCKWISE to increase
chain tension. Turning screw COUNTERCLOCKWISE will decrease amount of tension on chain. Ensure the
chain fits snugly all the way around the guide bar (Fig. 22).

2. After making adjustment, and while still holding nose of bar in the uppermost position, tighten the bar
retaining nut securely. Chain has proper tension when it has a snug fit all around and can be pulled around by gloved hand.
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 nut so it is finger tight.
Decrease tension by turning the bar adjustment screw 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 screw CLOCKWISE
B. When saw chain has proper tension, hold nose of bar
in uppermost position and tighten the bar retaining

Your chain saw is equipped with a Chain Brake® that
reduces possibility of injury due to kickback. The brake is activated if pressure is applied against brake lever
when, as in the event of kickback, operator's hand strikes the lever. When the brake is actuated, chain
movement stops abruptly.
To Test the Chain Brake®:
1. The Chain Brake® is DISENGAGED (chain can move) when BRAKE LEVER IS PULLED BACK AND
LOCKED (A, Fig. 24).
2. The Chain Brake® is ENGAGED (chain is stopped) when brake lever is in forward position. You should not be able to move chain (B, Fig. 24).
NOTE: The brake lever should snap into both positions.
If strong resistance is felt, or lever does not move
into either position, do not use your saw. Take it immediately to a Authorized Service Center for
repair. Call 1-800-520-5520 for more information.

GUIDE BAR MAmNTENANCE
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.
To lubricate the sprocket tip:
1. Move the STOP switch down.
NOTE: It is not necessary to remove the saw chain to
lubricate the guide bar sprocket tip. Lubrication can be done on the job.
2. Clean the guide bar sprocket tip.
3. Usingthe Lube Gun (optional), insert tip of lube gun into the lubrication hole and inject grease until it
appears at outside edge of sprocket tip (Fig. 32).
4. Rotate saw chain by hand. Repeat lubrication procedure until the entire sprocket tip has been greased.

GUmDE BAR MAmNTENANCE:
Most guide bar proMems can be prevented mereiy by keeping the chain saw well maintained.
hsuffbbnt guide bar iubrbafion and operating the saw with chain that is too tight will contribute to rapid bar wear.
To heip minimize bar wear, the following guide bar
maintenance procedures are recommended. BAR WEAR - Turn guide bar frequently at reguiar
intervais (for exampb, after 5 hours of use), to ensure even wear on top and bottom of bar.
BAR GROOVES - Bar grooves (or rainswhich support and carry the chain) shouid be cbaned if saw has been used
heaviiy or if saw chain appears dirty. RaiNsshouid aiways be cbaned 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 saw. Your saw is equipped with an automatic oiler system.
CHAIN MAmNTENANCE
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.

i
Chain Lubrication Always make sure the automatic oiler system is working
properly. Keep the oil tank filled with Genuine Factory Parts 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 your Authorized Service Center.
