IMPORTANT: To allow venting of
the oil reservoir, small breather
channels are provided between the Oil
Filler Cap and the strainer, to prevent
leakage ensure machine is left in a
horizontal position (Oil Filler Cap (5)
uppermost) when not in use.
It is important to use only the
recommended oil (ISO VG32) to avoid
damage to the chain saw. Never use
recycled/old oil. Use of non approved oil
will invalidate the warranty.
Oiling chain
Always check oil level before using saw. Do
not attempt to operate the oil system while
saw is in operation. To oil chain, press Oil
Filler Cap(5). Oil will feed onto the Guide Bar
(9) and chain. Press Oil Filler Cap at least once
before each cut. (See Fig. F)
OPERATION
1. SWITCHING ON AND OFF (See Fig. G)
ATTENTION: Check the voltage and
current supply: The voltage and
current supply must comply with the
ratings on the product plate.
For
switching on the tool
, press the Lock-
off Button (3), then fully press the On/Off
Switch (2) and hold in this position. The Lock-
Off Button can now be released.
For
switching off
, release the On/Off Switch .
2. CUTTING
IMPORTANT: Is the oil reservoir
filled? Check the Oil Level Window
(4) prior to starting and regularly during
operation. Refill oil when oil level is
low. A full oil tank will last approx. 12
minutes depending on sawing intensity
and stops. (See Fig. H1)
Check recent replaced chain tension
about every 10 minutes during
operation.”
1) Connect saw to extension cord. Connect
extension cord to power supply.
(See Fig. H2 )
2) Make sure section of log to be cut is not
laying on the ground. This will keep the
chain (10) from touching the ground as it
cuts through the log.
Touching the ground while the Chain is
moving is dangerous and will dull the
Chain.
3) Use both hands to grip saw. Always use
left hand to grip Front Handle (6) and
right hand to grip Rear Handle (1). Use a
firm grip. Thumbs and fingers must wrap
around saw handles. (See Fig.H3 )
4) Make sure your footing is firm. Keep
shoulder width feet apart. Divide your
weight evenly on both feet.
5) When ready to make a cut, push the Lock-
off Button (3) completely in with the right
thumb and squeeze the trigger. This will
turn saw on. Releasing the trigger will turn
the saw off. Make sure the saw is running
at full speed before starting a cut.
6) When starting a cut, slowly place moving
chain against the wood. Hold saw firmly
in place to avoid possible bouncing or
skating (sideways movement) of saw.
7) Guide the saw using light pressure and do
not put excessive force on the saw. The
motor will overload and can burn out. It
will do the job better and safer at the rate
for which it was intended.
8) Remove the saw from a cut with the saw
running at full speed. Stop the saw by
releasing the On/off Switch (2). Make sure
the chain has stopped before setting the
saw down.
9) Keep practicing on scrap logs in a secure
working area until you get the hang of
it and can saw with ease, using a fluid
motion and a steady cutting rate.
KICKBACK SAFETY DEVICES ON THIS
SAW
This saw has a low-kickback chain and
reduced kickback Guide Bar. Both items
reduce the chance of kickback. However,
kickback can still occur with this saw.
The following steps will reduce the risk of
kickback.
• Use both hands to grip saw while saw is
running. Use firm grip. Thumbs and fingers
must wrap around saw handles.
• Keep all safety items in place on saw.
Make sure they work properly.
