Operation
Before use
Correct use of chain brake
Kickback motion is very hazardous.
If the tip of the bar touches wood or the like, the guide bar kicks back in an instant.
The chain brake reduces the possibility of injury due to kickback.
Always check that chain brake works properly before use.
Be sure to install a guide bar and saw chain when performing a chain brake test.
NOTE
For practice, while cutting a small tree, push the front hand guard forward to engage the brake.
At all times, confirm whether the brake works properly before each task.
If the chain brake is clogged with wood chips, function of the brake deteriorates a little. Always keep the device clean.
Do not increase motor revolutions while the chain brake is engaged.
Never test the brake in an area where petrol fumes are present.
Checking chain tension
Remove the battery from unit when checking chain ten-
sion.
NOTE
Always loosen sprocket cover nuts before turning the chain
tension adjuster, otherwise the sprocket cover and tensioner
will be damaged.
1.
Chain tension should be checked frequently during work and
corrected if necessary.
2.
Tension the chain as tight as possible, but so it can still be
pulled easily along the guide bar by hand.
Chain lubrication test
1.
Hold the chain saw just above a dry surface and depress
trigger switch to half speed for 30 seconds.
2.
A thin line of "thrown" oil should be seen on the dry surface.
Pre cutting test
Familiarize yourself with your chain saw before you start actu-
al cutting.
For this purpose it may be wise to practice by cutting some
small logs or limbs several times.
Do not allow either people or animals into the work area. Mul-
tiple operators - Keep a safe distance between two or more
operators when working together simultaneously.
