OPERATION
ADJUSTING IDLE SPEED (Fig. 13)
If the engine starts, runs, and accelerates, but will not
idle, turn the idle speed screw "T" clockwise to increase
idle speed.
If the chain turns at idle, turn the idle speed screw "T"
counterclockwise to reduce the idle RPM and stop
the chain movement. If the saw chain still moves at
idle speed, contact an authorized service center for
adjustment and discontinue use until the repair is
made.
WARNING
THE SAW CHAIN SHOULD NEVER TURN AT IDLE.
Turn the idle speed screw "T" counterclockwise to
reduce the idle RPM and stop the chain, or contact
an authorized service center for adjustment and
discontinue use until the repair is made. Serious
personal injury may result from the saw chain turning
at idle.
PULL AND PUSH (Fig. 14)
The reaction force of the saw is always opposite to the
direction the chain is moving. Thus, the operator must be
ready to control the PULL when cutting on the bottom edge of
the bar and the PUSH when cutting along the top edge.
NOTE: The chain saw has been fully factory tested. It is
normal to fi nd some slight oil residue on the saw.
KICKBACK PRECAUTIONS (Fig. 15 - 16)
WARNING
KICKBACK occurs when the moving chain contacts
an object at the upper portion of the tip of the guide
bar or when the wood closes in and pinches the
saw chain in the cut. Contact at the upper portion of
the tip of the guide bar can cause the chain to dig
into the object and stop the chain for an instant. The
result is a lightning-fast reverse reaction which kicks
the guide bar up and back toward the operator. If the
saw chain is pinched along the top of the guide bar,
the guide bar can be driven rapidly back toward the
operator. Either of these reactions can cause loss of
saw control, which can result in serious injury.
Do not rely exclusively upon the safety devices built
into the saw. As a chain saw user, you should take
steps to keep your cutting jobs free from accident or
injury. See General Safety Rules for more details.

PREPARING FOR CUTTING
PROPER GRIP ON HANDLES (Fig. 17)
WARNING
Never use a left-handed (cross-handed) grip or any
stance that would place your body or arm across the
chain line.
WARNING
DO NOT operate the throttle trigger with your left
hand and hold the front handle with your right hand.
Never allow any part of your body to be in the chain
line while operating a saw.
PROPER CUTTING STANCE (Fig. 18)
Balance your weight with both feet on solid ground.
Keep left arm with elbow locked in a "straight arm"
position to withstand any kickback force.
Keep your body to the left of the chain line.
Keep your thumb on underside of handlebar.
WORK AREA PRECAUTIONS (Fig. 19)
Cut only wood or materials made from wood; no sheet
metal, no plastics, no masonry, no non-wood building
materials.
Never allow children to operate the saw. Allow no
person to use this chain saw who has not read this
operator s manual or received adequate instructions
for the safe and proper use of this chain saw.
Keep everyone – helpers, bystanders, children, and
animals, a SAFE DISTANCE from the cutting area.
During felling operations, the safe distance should be
a least twice the height of the largest trees in the felling
area. During bucking operations, keep a minimum
distance of 4.5 m between workers.
Always cut with both feet on solid ground to prevent
being pulled off balance.
Do not cut above chest height as a saw held higher is
diffi cult to control against kickback forces.
Do not fell trees near electrical wires or buildings. Leave
this operation for professionals.
Cut only when visibility and light are adequate for you
to see clearly.
