tree and the angle of the upper and lower cuts
should be at least 45°.
Main cut
The main cut is made on the opposite side from the
directional cut and must be perfectly horizontal, and
at a height about 3 cm above the base of the
directional cut (see illustration)
Finish the cut at least 1/10 of the tree diameter from
the directional notch. This is called the breakage line
and serves to control the direction of fall of the tree
because the tree will now start to fall. This can be
facilitated using a crowbar on the main cut.
Caution! If the breakage line is too small or is cut
diagonally it will no longer be possible to control the
direction of fall of the tree.
• Important: unplug the chainsaw before performing
any cleaning and maintenance of the tool.
• Always wear approved work gloves
• Fig. B6 make sure the chain is tight enough to
prevent it from moving during sharpening
• Fig. F1 pull the brake lever forward to block the
chain on the bar
• The correct diameter of the file is 1/10 or more
than the height of the cutting tooth.
• FIG. F2 Round file for sharpening 4 mm chain
• FIG. F3 File at a horizontal angle of 35° to the bar
from the inside of the tooth toward the outside.
First file all the teeth on one side then turn the
chainsaw and file the teeth on the other side
• File in such a way that all the teeth are the same
length.
• When only 3 mm (1/8”) of the length of the cutting
teeth remains, replace the chain.
• FIG F4 file perpendicular to the bar plane (90°)
• FIG F5 About every 5 sharpenings, check the
cutting height against the cutting depth limiter (H).
To reduce the height of the limiter use a caliber.
• FIG F6 Every 3 hours of work remove the bar and
clean the groove, make sure the oil outlet hole is
not obstructed by chips and remove all sawdust
deposits from the tool.
Important: reverse the direction of installation of
the bar every time you clean it so as to obtain
uniform wear
• FIG F7 Check frequently that the ventilation slots
on the motor are free and the grating is clean.
