IMPORTANT: IT IS VITAL FOR THE PROPER AND SAFE

OPERATION OF THE CHAINSAW THAT THE CHAIN IS

TENSIONED CORRECTLY.

Fitting a chain and bar

1. Remove the bar securing

of the tool.

2. Remove the bar securing nut

thenthesidepanel.

3. Fit the chain over the

guide bar making sure

that the cutters are facing

in the direction of rotation.

4. Place the guide bar and

chaininpositionensuring

the chain is around

sprocketwheel(B).

Note: If required adjust chain

tension screw to move the

tension lug back to allow the

bartot

Before assembling or disassembling a chain be sure to

disconnect the chainsaw from the power supply.

Always wear gloves when handling the chain as it is very sharp

and can cut you when it is not moving.

NOTE: ONLY USE OIL THAT IS EXPRESSLY LABELLED

“CHAIN BAR OIL”.

CAUTION: FIRST TIME USERS SHOULD, AS A

MINIMUM PRACTISE, CUT LOGS ON A SAW-HORSE

OR CRADLE

CAUTION: POSITION THE CORD SO THAT IT WILL

NOT BE CAUGHT IN BRANCHES DURING CUTTING

CAUTION!: AVOID CUTTING INTO THE GROUND AS

THIS WILL VERY QUICKLY DULL THE SAW CHAIN.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR CHAINSAWS

• Keep all parts of the body away from the saw chain when the chain saw is

operating. Before you start the chain saw, make sure the saw chain is not

contacting anything.Amomentofinattentionwhileoperatingchainsawsmay

cause entanglement of your clothing or body with the saw chain.

• Always hold the chain saw with your right hand on the rear handle and

you left hand on the front handle. Hold the chain saw with a reversed hand

congurationincreasestheriskofpersonalinjuryandshouldneverbedone.

• Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only, because the chain

may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.Sawchainscontactinga“live”wire

maymakeexposedmetalpartsofthepowertool“live”andcouldgivetheoperator

an electric shock.

• Wear safety glasses and hearing protection. Further protective equipment for

head, hands, legs and feet is recommended.Adequateprotectiveclothingwill

reducepersonalinjurybyyingdebrisoraccidentalcontactwiththesawchain.

• Do not operate a chain saw in a tree.Operationofachainsawwhileupinatree

mayresultinpersonalinjury

• Always keep proper footing and operate the chain saw only when standing

on xed, secure and level surface.Slipperyorunstablesurfacessuchasladders

may cause a loss of balance or control of the chain saw.

• When cutting a limb that is under tension be alert for spring back. When

thetensioninthewoodbresisreleasedthespringloadedlimbmaystrikethe

operatorand/orthrowthechainsawoutofcontrol.

• Use extreme caution when cutting brush and saplings.Theslendermaterial

maycatchthesawchainandbewhippedtowardsyouorpillyouoffbalance.

• Carry the chain saw by the front handle with the chain saw switched off and

away from your body. When transporting or storing the chain saw always t

the guide bar cover.Properhandlingofthechainsawwillreducethelikelihoodof

accidental contact with the moving saw chain.

• Follow instructions for lubricating, chain tensioning and changing

accessories. Improperlytensionedorlubricatedchainmayeitherbreakor

increase the chance for kickback

• Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.Greasy,oilyhandlesare

slipperycausinglossofcontrol.

• Cut wood only. Do not use chain saw for purposes not intended. For

example: do not use chain saw for cutting plastic, masonry or non-wood

building materials.Useofthechainsawforoperationsdifferentthanintended

could result in a hazardous situation.

Causes and operator prevention of kickback

Kickbackmayoccurwhenthenoseortipoftheguidebartouchesanobject,orwhen

thewoodclosesinandpinchesthesawchaininthecut.

Tipcontactinsomecasesmaycauseasuddenreversereaction,kickingtheguidebar

upandbacktowardstheoperator.

Pinchingthesawchainalongthetopoftheguidebarmaypushtheguidebarrapidly

backtowardstheoperator.

Either of these reactions may cause you to lose control of the saw which could result in

seriouspersonalinjury.Donotrelyexclusivelyuponthesafetydevicesbuiltintoyour

saw.Asachainsawuser,youshouldtakeseveralstepstokeepyourcuttingjobsfree

from accident or injury.

Kickbackistheresultoftoolmisuseand/orincorrectoperatingproceduresor

conditionsandcanbeavoidedbytakingproperprecautionsasgivenbelow:

• Maintain a rm grip, with thumbs and ngers encircling the chain saw

handles, with both hands on the saw and position your body and arm to

allow you to resist kickback forces. Kickback forces can be controlled by the

operator,ifproperprecautionsaretaken.Donotletgoofthechainsaw.

• Do not overreach and do not cut above shoulder height.Thishelpsprevent

unintendedtipcontactandenablesbettercontrolofthechainsawinunexpected

situations.

• Only use replacement bars and chains specied by the manufacturer.

Incorrectreplacementbarsandchainsmaycausechainbreakageand/orkickback.

• Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance instructions for the

saw chain.Decreasingthedepthgaugeheightcanleadtoincreasedkickback.

1. Work area safety

a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of

ammable liquids, gases or dust.Powertoolscreatesparks

which may ignite the dust or fumes.

c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool.Distractionscancause

you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety

a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.

Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools.Unmodiedplugsand

matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
