• (Figure U) When supported at both ends
First, cut 1/3 down from the top overbuck. Then make the finished
cut by underbucking the lower 2/3 to meet the first cut.
• (Figure V) When on a slope
Always stand on the uphill side of
the log. When "cutting through", to
maintain complete control release
the cutting pressure near the end
of the cut without relaxing your
grip on the chain saw handles.
Don't let the chain contact the
ground. After completing the cut,
wait for the saw chain to stop
before you move the chain saw.
Always stop the motor before moving from tree to tree.
• (Figure W) When using a saw
horse
This is strongly recommended
whenever possible. Position the
log in a stable position. Always cut
on the outside of the saw horse
arms.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Use only mild soap and damp cloth to clean the tool. Do not use
solvents to clean the plastic housing of the saw. Never let any liquid
get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool into a liquid.
IMPORTANT: To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
maintenance and adjustment should be performed by authorized
service centers or other qualified service organizations, always using
identical replacement parts.
Regular maintenance ensures a long effective life for your chain
saw. We recommend you make the following checks on a regular
basis:
Oil Level
The level in the reservoir should not be allowed to fall below a
quarter full.
Chain and Bar
After every few hours of use, remove the guide bar and chain and
clean thoroughly.
Saw Chain Sharpening
CAUTION: Sharp chain. Always wear protective gloves when
handling the chain. The chain is sharp and can cut you when it is not
running.
WARNING: Sharp moving chain. To prevent accidental
operation, insure that battery is disconnected from the tool
before performing the following operations. Failure to do this
could result in serious personal injury.
To get the best possible performance from your chain saw it is
important to keep the teeth of the chain sharp. Follow these helpful
tips for proper saw chain sharpening:
1. For best results use a 4.5mm file and a file holder or filing guide to
sharpen your chain. This will ensure you always get the correct
sharpening angles.
2. Place the file holder flat on the top plate and depth gauge of the
cutter.
