Operating in cold temperatures
The ventilation slide cover (7) is factory set for use of the
chain saw in normal temperatures. It can be changed for
use in temperatures around or below freezing point. In this
case the position of slide cover (7) is reversed to allow the
air entering the carburettor to be first warmed by the engine
to increase the efficiency of the operation.

and remove cover (11).
3. Remove air filter (8) and

cylinder cover (6) and also
remove the idle adjustment
screw cover.
4. Remove the four screws that secure the cylinder cover
(6).Three screws are located in the chamber under the
top cover. The fourth screw is located at the top front left-
hand side of the saw.

Operation
WARNINGS.
•
Always follow the safety instructions given at the front
of this manual. This chain saw must only be used for
cutting wood. It must not be used for cutting other types
of material. Do not use the chain saw as a lever for lifting,
moving or splitting objects.
•
Do not attach the chain saw to a fixed stand.
•
Do not attach any devices to the chain saw other than
those specified by the manufacturer.
Helpful hints
•
Do not force the saw into the cut. Apply only light pressure
whilst running the engine at full throttle.
•
If the saw chain gets caught in the cut, do not try to
remove it by twisting the guide or pulling forcibly. Use a
lever or wedge to open up the cut so that the saw chain
is freed.
