TYPES OF CUTS
The DS12 can be operated not only using the pipe clamp but also make
free-hand cuts, any size pipe can be cut free hand.
Utility Chain Saw Cuts
• Ductile Iron Pipe
• Roofi ng Shingles
• Insituform Pipe Lining
• CMU Concrete Block
• PVC Pipe
• Non Reinforced Concrete
• Copper Pipe
• Roofi ng Tile
• Steel Roofi ng Material
• Lumber
• HDPE Pipe
• Masonry
1. When using the pipe clamp with a 15-inch bar the cut capacity is 4” to
10”.
2. When using the pipe clamp with a 18-inch bar the cut capacity is 4” to
12”.
3. Do not use a cutting force in excess of 45 lbs/20 kg. Excessive force
causes the chain to slow down or stall and causes premature wear of the
saw bar and chain.
4. Always maintain a high chain speed. High chain speeds produce the
best results.
5. Avoid aggressive/heavy forces. Aggressive force can causes premature
bar and chain wear.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
If the saw is to be used during cold weather, preheat the hydraulic fl uid at
low power source speed. When using the normally recommended fl uids,
fl uid should be at or above 50°F/10°C (400 ssu/82 centistokes) before
use.
Damage to the hydraulic system or chain saw can result from use with
fl uid that is too viscous or thick.

PLAN THE CUT
1. Plan your cuts to prevent injury to yourself and to keep from pinch-
ing the saw bar and chain as a result of falling pieces of iron pipe.
2. Outline the material being cut with a permanent marker for a visual
guide (especially when cutting free hand).
3. Know what kind of material you are cutting.
