LiMBiNG A TREE See figure 11
Limbing is removing the branches from a
fallen tree. When limbing, leave the larger
lower limbs to support the log off the ground.
Remove the small limbs in one cut. Branches
under tension should be cut from the bottom
up, to avoid binding the chain saw.
BUCKiNG A LOG See figure 12 - 15
Bucking is cutting a log into lengths. It is
important to make sure your footing is firm
and your weight is evenly distributed on both
feet. When possible, the log should be
raised and supported by the use of limbs, logs
or chocks.
Follow the simple direction for easy cutting:
When the log is supported along the
„
entire length, it is cut from the top (over
buck).
When the log is supported on one end,
„
cut 1/3 of the diameter from the underside
(under buck). Then make the finished cut
by over bucking to meet the first cut.
When the log is supported on both ends,
„
cut 1/3 of that diameter from the top (over
buck). Then make the finished cut by
under bucking the lower 2/3 to meet the
first cut.
When bucking 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.
Do not 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.
MAiNTENANCE
Always remove the battery pack from the
machine before checking the chain tension
or making adjustments to the chain. Wear
protective gloves while touching the chain,
bar or areas around the chain.

ADJUSTiNG THE CHAiN TENSiON
See figure 2 and figure 7
Loosen the chain cover lock nuts (item
„
15) with the supplied wrench. The
chain cover lock nuts do not have to be
completely removed in order to adjust
the chain tension.
Rotate the chain adjustment screw(item
„
13) clockwise to increase the chain
tension and rotate counterclockwise to
decrease the chain tension.
Once the chain is at the desired tension,
„
tighten the chain cover lock nuts(item
15).
REPLACiNG THE BAR AND CHAiN
See Figure 3-7
Remove the battery from the chain saw.
„
Remove the supplied wrench(item 11)
„
from the rear handle (item 12).
Remove the two chain cover lock nuts
„
(item 15) from chain cover by rotating
them counterclockwise with the wrench.
Remove the chain cover(item 14) from
„
the mounting surface.
The bar and chain can now be removed
„
by lifting it away from the main body of
the saw and releasing the chain from
the sprocket.
Remove the old chain from the bar.
„
Lay out the new saw chain in a loop and
„
straighten any kinks. The cutters should
face in the direction of chain rotation. If
they face backwards, turn the loop over.
Place the chain drive links into the bar
„
groove.
Position the chain so there is a loop at
„
the back of the bar.
Hold the chain in position on the bar and
„
place the loop around the sprocket.
Fit the bar flush against the mounting
„
surface so that the bar studs are in the
long slot of the bar. Ensure that the
chain is over the sprocket.
