• It is not necessary to force the saw into the
cut. Apply only light pressure while running
the engine at full throttle.
• When the saw chain is caught in the cut, do
not attempt to pull it out by force, but use a
wedge or a lever to open the way.
GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK (F18)
• It is extremely important that the chain
brake be checked
for proper operation before
each use and that the chain
be sharp in order to maintain
the kickback safety level of
this saw. Removal of the
safety devices, inadequate
maintenance, or incorrect
replacement of the bar or chain
may increase the risk of serious personal
injury due to kickback.
FELLING A TREE (F17)
1.
Decide the felling direction
considering the wind, lean of the
tree, location of heavy branches,
ease of job after felling
and other factors.
2.
While clearing the area around the tree,
arrange a good foothold and retreat path.
3.
Make a notch cut one-third of the way into the
tree on the felling side.
4.
Make a felling cut from the opposite side of
the notch and at a level slightly higher than the
bottom of the notch.
WARNING
·
Before proceeding to your job, read
“SAFETY INSTRUCTION” and “SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS” sections. It is
recommended to first practice sawing easy
logs. This also helps you get accustomed to
your unit.
·
Always follow the safety regulations. The
chain saw must only be used for cutting
wood. It is forbidden to cut other types of
material. Vibrations and kickback vary with
different materials and the requirements of
the safety regulations would not be
respected. Do not use the chain saw as a
lever for lifting, moving or splitting objects.
Do not lock it over fixed stands. It is
forbidden to hitch tools or applications that
are not specified by the manufacturer.

level of this saw. Removal of the safety
devices, inadequate maintenance, or

Bucking and Limbing
·
Always ensure your foothold. Do not stand
on the log.
·
Be alert to the rolling over of a cut log.
Especially when working on a slope, stand
on the uphill side of the log.
·
Follow the instructions in “For Safe
Operation” to avoid kickback of the saw.
Before starting work, check the direction of
bending force inside the log to be cut.
Always finish cutting from the opposite
side of bending direction to prevent the
guide bar from being caught in the cut.

CHAIN BRAKE (F16)
This brake can also be operated manually with
the front guard turned down to the guide bar.
To release brake, pull up the front guard toward
the front handle till “click” sound is heard.
a.
Break (front guard).
b.
Released.
CAUTION
Be sure to confirm brake operation on the daily
inspection. In case the brake is not effective,
do not operate the saw, take the chainsaw to
your local Bushranger
™
dealer for inspection
and repairing. The engine, if being kept rotated
at high speed with the brake engaged, heats
the clutch, causing trouble. When the brake
is operated while in operation, immediately
release your fingers from the throttle lever and
keep the engine idling.
STOPPING ENGINE
a.
Release the throttle lever to allow the engine
idling for a few minutes.
Put the switch to the “O” (STOP) position. (F17)

■CARBURE
TOR ANTI-FREEZE MECHANISM
Operating the chain saw in temperatures of 0-5°C at times of high
humidity may result in ice forming within the carburetor, and this
in turn may cause the output power of the engine to be reduced
or for the engine to fail to operate smoothly.
This product has accordingly been designed with a ventilation
hatch the back of the air cleaner cover to allow warm air to be
supplied to the engine and to thereby prevent icing from
occurring.(For some other models, the hot air intake can be
adjusted by ho wind cover)
Under normal circumstances the product should be used in
normal operating mode, i.e., in the to which it is set at the time of
shipment.
However when the possibility exists that icing may occur, the
unit should be set to operate in anti-freeze mode before use.

HOW TO SWITCH BETWEEN OPERATING MODES
A.SWITCHING BY AIR FILTER COVER (F16A)
