PRUNING AND DEBRANCHING
1. Observe all safety precautions.
2. Use both hands. Keep a firm grip.
3. Be alert for kickback. Do not allow the tip of the bar
to touch anything while the chain is in motion.
4. Do not cut overhead. Keep the saw below chest
level. The chain is too close to your face in this
position.
COLD WEATHER OPERATION
If the saw is to used during cold weather, preheat the
hydraulic fluid at low engine speed. When using the
normally recommended oils, oil should be at or above
50 °F/10 °C (400 ssu/ 82 centistokes) before use.
Damage to the hydraulic system or saw can result from
use with fluid that is too viscous or thick.
Cutting frozen wood causes the cutters to wear,
crack and break at the back rivet hole unless proper
precautions are taken. To extend chain life when cutting
in cold weather:
1. Be sure the oiler is working.
2. Keep the chain tensioned and check often.
3. Keep the cutters properly sharpened. Touch up at
least every hour. Never force a dull chain to cut.
4. Clean out the bar groove and keep the oil hole open.
Turn the bar over to equalize wear on the rails.
5. Always install a new sprocket with a new chain.
