Safety Precautions for Electric Tools Double insulation Your electric chain saw is double-insulated for enhanced protection against electric shock. A double-insulated tool is designed with two separate«layers» of electrical insulation, or one double thickness of insulation between the operator and the tool’s conducting parts. Tools that are double-insulated do not use a grounded (three-pronged) plug. -

Page 12: Mounting Guide Bar And Chain
Mounting guide bar and chain Always pull out the plug before fitting parts or adjusting the saw. Wear gloves when working with the chain in order to protect your hands from injury. Check that the chain brake is disengaged by moving the front hand guard towards the front handle. -
Page 13: Before Each Use
Before each use • Always disconnect power cable before fitting parts or adjusting the saw. • Make sure the chain brake is undamaged and operating properly (see page 15). • Check right hand-guard for damage. • Check entire saw for loose screws and damaged or missing components. Cable insulation must be intact, with no cracks or deterioration. -
Page 14: Chain Brake
Chain Brake Chain brake Your saw is equipped with a chain brake which can be activated both manually and by the force of inertia. The chain brake consists of the front hand guard, an activating mechanism, a spring and a brake band encircling the clutch drum. When the front hand guard is moved foreward, the mechanism releases the spring, jerking the band tight around the clutch drum. -
Page 15: Testing And Maintenance Of The Chain Brake
Testing and maintenance of the chain brake Failure to check and maintain the chain brake may result in the failure of the chain brake to activate in the event of a kickback. Brake function test: The chain brake must be checked several times daily. Place the saw on firm ground. -
Page 16: Maintenance
Maintenance Tools and materials The tools and materials shown are absolutely essential for the everyday safe operation and maintenance of an electric chain saw. Combination wrench: - This type of wrench (A) or its equivalent should always be carried with your electric chain saw. The wrench is needed to adjust chain tension, which must be correctly adjusted for safer cutting. -
Page 17: Cutting Equipment
Cutting Equipment Recommended cutting equipment The combination of power head, bar and chain used together with this unit has been determined in accordance with the kickback requirements specified in ANSI B 175.1 - 1991. The guide bar nose radius is determined either by the maximum number of teeth in the nose sprocket or by the corresponding maximum nose radius of a solid bar. -

Chain Maintenance Chain maintenance - safety For personal safety, it is of great importance to use bar and chain combinations of the low-kickback type, and that the cutting equipment is properly maintained. Important notes : • Chain tension • Sharpening •... -
Page 19: Chain Maintenance
Sharpening Never cut with a dull chain. A chain which does not cut unless you bear down hard is damaged, dull or incorrectly filed. To file the chain correctly, you need: round file (A), file gauge (B), flat file (C) and depth gauge tool (D). Best results are obtained by using the correct file size (see table) and a file gauge with a marked filing angle. -
Page 20: General Working Instruction
General Working Instructions What is kickback ? KICKBACK ZONE Kickback is the sudden, rearward jerk of the saw that can occur if the kickback zone of the bar touches an object. Most kickbacks are small. They can cause the bar tip to jump only a few inches and pose little danger. However, a kickback can also be very powerful. -
Page 21: General Working Instructions
General Working Instructions CAUTION! A chain brake may not always activate during a kickback. A chain brake can provide its intended protection only if it is properly maintained. A neglected and abused chain brake might not work when you need it most. Test the chain brake periodically to be sure it will work for you if you have a kickback. - Page 22 General Working Instructions Pinch Kickback 1. Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may push the saw back at you. 2. If the bar is pushed back far enough so that the kickback zone hits an object, a rotational kickback may occur.
- Page 23 General Working Instructions Avoiding kickbacks Following the guidelines listed below will help avoid kickbacks: • Use proper working techniques. • Do not engage the kickback danger zone. • Maintain a proper grip. • Avoid unsafe and off-balance working positions. • Cut at high chain speed. •...
- Page 24 General Working Instructions Use Proper Grip When the motor is running, keep a good, firm grip on the saw, always with both hands. The right hand should be on the rear handle, and the left hand on the front handle. All people, whether right or left handed, should use this grip.

Cut, using the bottom portion of the guide bar tip, until the depth of the cut is equal to the width of the guide bar and deep enough to stop a kickback during steps 2 and 3. - Page 28 Basic Working Techniques SHAPE OF CROWN WIND DIRECTION LEAN KEEP TWICE THE TREE LENGTH AS DISTANCE CLEAR AWAY THE UNDERBUSH RETREAT DIRECTION Felling Felling is more than merely cutting down a tree. You must also decide where you want it to fall and bring it down as close as possible to the intended line of fall without damaging the tree or anything else.
