while the engine is running.
At cutting speed the chain is moving at a
high rate of speed.
Should the tip contact a limb or log while
the chain is moving, the tip will be pushed
upward with considerable force.
This is known as kickback. Avoid it!
In all circumstances the operation of the chain saw
is a one-man job.
It is difficult at times to take care for your own
safety, so don’t assume the responsibility for a
helper as well.
After you have learned the basic techniques of
using the saw, your best aid will be your own good
common sense.
The accepted way to hold the saw is to stand to the
left of the saw with your left hand on the front
handlebar and your right hand on the rear handle
so you can operate the throttle trigger with your
right index finger.
Before attempting to fell a tree, cut some small logs
or limbs.
Become thoroughly familiar with the controls and
the responses of the saw.
Start the engine, see that it is running properly.
Squeeze the trigger to open the throttle wide open
and start the cut. If the chain is properly
sharpened, the cutting should be relatively
effortless.
It is not necessary to press down hard to make the
saw cut.
Pushing the saw too hard will slow the engine and
cutting will actually be more difficult.
Some material may adversely affect the housings
of your chain saw.
(Example palm Tree Acid, fertilizer etc.)
To avoid housing deterioration, carefully remove all
packed sawdust around clutch and guide bar area
and wash with water. Coat metal parts with light oil.
