NOTE:
The speed at which the cable
is fed initially can be controlled by
moving the control lever toward
FORWARD
to increase speed and
moving back toward
NEUTRAL
to
slow speed.
NOTE:
If the feeder control lever is
initially put in
FORWARD

cable until obstruction is met.
When cable begins to drag or
rotation becomes difficult, move

Figure #4 for
NEUTRAL
feeder
position)
Figure 4
DANGER: NEVER
force the cable
or tool into the obstruction. Choose
the proper feeding speed in order to
give a smooth cutting action.
