NOTICE:
We recommend using environment-friendly biodegradable chain oil specifically intended to
•
be used with chain saws.
Never use oil or other lubricants not specifically designed for use on the bar and chain. This
•
can lead to a clogged oil system, which may cause premature wear of the bar and chain.
Check the oil level frequently and fill when the oil level falls below the minimum line. Never
•
operate the chain saw if the oil is not visible.
Do not use dirty, used or otherwise contaminated oil. Damage may occur to the bar or chain.
•
It is normal for oil to seep from the saw when it is not in use. To prevent seepage, empty the
•
oil tank after each use, and then run the saw for one minute. When storing the tool for a long
period of time, be sure the chain is lightly lubricated; this will prevent rust on the chain and
bar sprocket.
To preserve natural resources, please recycle or dispose of oil properly. Consult your local
•
waste authority for information regarding available recycling and disposal options.
Starting/Stopping the Chain Saw
Before Starting the Chain Saw:
1. Remove the battery pack.
2. Make sure that the chain is properly mounted and correctly tensioned.
3. Check the side-cover knob before use. If it is loose, securely tighten the side-cover knob.
4. Check the oil level and fill the tank as needed. Make sure the chain is well lubricated.
5. Check the cutting teeth sharpness of the saw chain.
6. Make sure that the chain kickback brake handle moves easily to the brake position, then pull
the chain kickback brake handle back towards the front handle to the operating position.
7. Stand upright and hold the chain saw in a relaxed position.
8. Hold the chain saw with both hands: with the right hand on the rear handle and the left
hand on the front handle.
9. Make sure that you have a secure and balanced footing. Watch out for obstacles such as
tree stumps, roots, and ditches, which could cause you to trip or stumble.
10. Make sure the saw chain is not touching the ground or any other objects.
11. Make sure that cutting object does not exceed the usable cutting length of the chain saw. The
tip of guide bar shall always be kept at least 2" (5 cm) outside the outline of the wood log.
To Start the Chain Saw (Fig . 10)
1. Install the battery pack.
2. Make sure that no objects or obstructions
that could come in contact with the bar and

3. Pull the chain kickback brake handle
towards the front handle to the operating
position.
4. Grasp the front and rear handles firmly, using
both hands.
