Check that the chain is inside the slot of the guide.
Tighten the chain clamping screw clockwise until the chain is sufficiently tensioned. Then tighten the
locking nut.
A properly tensioned chain can be lifted in the middle of the guide bar approx. 3-4 mm up.
CHAIN LUBRICATION
Before starting work, check the oil level for lubricating the chain in the reservoir (2). Top the oil up if it is
visible in the lower part of the check window.
Unscrew the oil tank cap, pour the chain lubrication oil into the oil reservoir. It is recommended that
the oil level fills the entire window of the oil reservoir. After adding oil, tighten the reservoir cap and
wipe the body of the device so that it is free of dirt and slippery.
Check the oil level in the reservoir every 30 minutes of operation.
Do not operate the saw when there is no oil in the reservoir. Chain lubrication oil is not supplied with
the device.
HOW TO TURN THE CHAIN SAW ON AND OFF
Grasp the saw with the right hand by the handle so that it is wrapped around the thumb. Release the
chain brake. Press and hold the lock button with your thumb and press and hold the switch with your
index finger. The saw will start and the chain will rotate.
Release the power switch to turn off the saw. The chain will stop. Engage the chain brake to avoid
accidental start.
SAWING – GENERAL TIPS
Take a 15 minute break after each 15 minutes of work.
Read the safety rules before starting work and cutting. There is a risk of kickback – the saw can kick
back towards you. Danger of serious or fatal accident.
Start cutting when the saw has reached its full speed.
Do not cut through the area around the top quarter of the guide tip.
Do not apply excessive pressure when cutting. Apply gentle pressure when the saw is running at its
maximum speed.
If the guide bar is stuck in the material, do not pull it out by force, use a wedge or lever.
Always ensure that your feet are well supported. Do not stand on logs of trees. Note that
the log being cut may twist.
Be careful of the springing of the branch being cut.
PRUNING
Pruning involves cutting logs and branches from a felled tree.
The branches holding the trunk should be sawn off last only after cutting the trunk.
Tensioned branches should be cut from the bottom to the top to prevent jamming of the saw guide
bar.
LOG SLITTING
Consider the direction of stress inside the log. The cut should end on the opposite side of the log
bending direction. This will prevent the guide bar from jamming.
In the case of a tree lying on the ground, make a half-cut, then rotate the log and complete the cut on
the other side.
If the tree is placed on a support on one side, first cut from bottom to top up to 1/3 of the trunk
diameter, then finish cutting the top. If the trunk is supported on both sides, start from the top, cut to
1/3, then finish with a cut from the bottom.
