Owner's manual
control the chain saw with a firm grip on
both handles when it is in operation. Keep
handles dry, clean and free of oil. A chain
saw should never be carried with the
engine running.
· When transporting your chain saw, use
the appropriate transportation covers that
should be available for the guide bar and
saw chain.
· Never operate a chain saw that is damaged
or improperly adjusted or that is not
completely and securely assembled. Be
sure that the saw chain stops moving when
the throttle control trigger is released. Never
adjust the guide bar or saw chain when the
engine is operating.
· Beware of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Operate the chain saw in well ventilated
areas only.
· Do not attempt a pruning or limbing
operation in a standing tree unless
specifically trained to do so.
· Guard against kickback. Kickback is the
upward motion of the guide bar that occurs
when the saw chain, at the nose of the
guide bar, contacts an object. Kickback
can lead to dangerous loss of control of the
chain saw.
· A chain saw is intended for two-handed use.
Serious injury to the operator, helpers and/
or bystanders may result from one-handed
operation.
· When carrying a chain saw with the engine
running, engage the chain brake.
· Allow your chain saw to cool before
refueling, and do not smoke.
· Don't allow other persons or animals close
to a running chain saw or close to where a
tree is being felled.
· Use extreme caution when cutting small
size brush and saplings because slender
material may catch the saw chain and be
whipped toward you.
· When cutting a limb that is under tension be
alert for spring-back.

Installing guide bar and saw chain
WARNING
The saw chain has very sharp edges. Use
thick protective gloves for safety. Make sure
the engine is stopped before making any guide
bar and saw chain adjustments. A standard
chainsaw unit package contains the items as
shown below:
Open the box and install the guide bar and the
saw chain on the power unit as follows.
1. Pull the guard towards the front handle to
check that the chain brake is not on.
2. Loosen two nuts and remove the clutch
cover.
3. Mount the guide bar to the power unit; while
inserting the chain tensioner nut into the
lower hole of the guide bar. Gear the chain
to the sprocket and, while fitting the saw
chain around the guide bar, then install the
clutch cover, and fasten two nuts to finger
tightness.
