  • Page 4: Safety Instructions

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Personal protective equipment WARNING! Most chain saw accidents happen when the chain touches the operator. You must use approved personal protective equipment whenever you use the machine. Personal protective equipment cannot eliminate the risk of injury but it will reduce the degree of injury if an accident does happen.
  • Page 5 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Chain brake and front hand guard Your chain saw is equipped with a chain brake that is designed to stop the chain immediately if you get a kickback. The chain brake reduces the risk of accidents, but only you can prevent them.
  • Page 6: Chain Catcher

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • During felling your left hand grasps the front handle in such a way that it cannot activate the chain brake. In this position, i.e. when your left hand is in such a position that it cannot affect the movement of the front hand guard, the chain brake can only be activated by the inertia of the counterweight.

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Muffler The muffler is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user. WARNING! The exhaust fumes from the engine are hot and may contain sparks which can start a fire. Never start the machine indoors or near combustible material! In areas with a hot, dry climate there is a high risk of fires.
  • Page 8 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Grasp the chain saw firmly, wrapping your fingers and thumbs around the handles. Apply full throttle and activate the chain brake by tilting your left wrist forward onto the front hand guard. Do not let go of the front handle. The chain should stop immediately. Throttle lock •...
  • Page 9: Cutting Equipment

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Muffler Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler. Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the machine. If the muffler on your machine is fitted with a spark arrestor mesh this must be cleaned regularly. A blocked mesh will cause the engine to overheat and may lead to serious damage.
  • Page 10: Sharpening Your Chain And Adjusting Raker Clearance

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Chain A chain is made up of a number of links, which are available in standard and low-kickback versions. None Standard Cutting link Drive link Side link Combining these links in different ways gives different degrees of kickback reduction. In terms of kickback reduction alone, four different types of link are available.
  • Page 11 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • A sharp chain eats its way through the wood and produces long, thick cuttings. • The cutting part of the chain is called the cutting link and this consists of a cutting tooth (A) and the raker lip (B). The cutting depth is determined by the difference in height between the two.
  • Page 12: Tensioning The Chain

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS General advice on setting raker clearance • When you sharpen the cutting teeth you reduce the raker clearance (=cutting depth). To maintain optimal cutting performance you must file back the raker lip to the recommended height. See the Technical data section to find the raker clearance for your particular chain.
  • Page 13 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Lubricating cutting equipment WARNING! Poor lubrication of cutting equipment may cause the chain to snap, which could lead to serious, even fatal injuries. Chain oil Chain oil must demonstrate good adhesion to the chain and also maintain its flow characteristics regardless of whether it is warm summer or cold winter weather.
  • Page 14: How To Avoid Kickback

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Checking wear on cutting equipment Check the chain daily for: • Visible cracks in rivets and links. • Whether the chain is stiff. • Whether rivets and links are badly worn. We recommend you compare the existing chain with a new chain to decide how badly the existing chain is worn.
  • Page 15: General Rules

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Kickback always occurs in the cutting plane of the bar. Normally the chain saw and bar are thrown backwards and upwards towards the user. However, the chain saw may move in a different direction depending on the way it was being used when the kickback zone of the bar touched the object.
  • Page 16: General Safety Precautions

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 8 Follow the instructions on sharpening and maintaining your bar and chain. When you replace the bar and chain use only combinations that are recommended by us. See instructions under the headings Cutting equipment and Technical data. WARNING! The risk of kickback is increased if you use the wrong cutting equipment or a chain that is not sharpened correctly.
  • Page 17: General Working Instructions

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • Observe your surroundings and make sure that there is no risk of people or animals coming into contact with the cutting equipment. • Place the chain saw on the ground and hold the rear handle down with your right foot. Grasp the front handle firmly using your left hand.
  • Page 18: Basic Cutting Technique

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS • Take great care when removing small branches and avoid cutting bushes (i.e. cutting many small branches at the same time). Small branches can be grabbed by the chain and thrown back at you, causing serious injury. • Make sure you can move and stand safely.
  • Page 19 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Two factors decide whether the chain will jam or the object that you are cutting will split: the first is how the object is supported before and after cutting, and the second is whether it is in tension. In most cases you can avoid these problems by cutting in two stages;...
  • Page 20: Tree Felling Technique

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Tree felling technique WARNING! It takes a lot of experience to fell a tree. Inexperienced users of chain saws should not fell trees. Do not attempt any task that you feel unsure of! Safe distance The safe distance between a tree that is to be felled and anyone else working nearby is at least 2 1/2 tree lengths.
  • Page 21 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS The line where the two cuts meet is called the directional cut line. This line should be perfectly horizontal and at right angles (90°) to the chosen felling direction. Felling cut The felling cut is made from the opposite side of the tree and it must be perfectly horizontal.
  • Page 22: Freeing A Tree That Has Fallen Badly

    SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Freeing a tree that has fallen badly Freeing a ”trapped tree” It is very dangerous to remove a trapped tree and there is high accident risk. The safest method is to use a winch. • Tractor-mounted • Portable Cutting trees and branches that are in tension Preparations: Work out which side is in tension and where the point of...

    Low speed jet L Turn the low speed jet L clockwise until it stops. If the engine accelerates poorly or idles unevenly, turn the low speed jet L anticlockwise until good acceleration and idling are achieved. CAUTION! If the chain rotates while idling the T-screw must be turned anti-clockwise until the chain stops.
  • Page 31 Fine adjustment When the machine has been ”run-in” the carburettor should be finely adjusted. The fine adjustment should be carried out by a qualified person. First adjust the L-jet, then the idling screw T and then the H-jet. The recommended engine speeds are as follows: Max.
  • Page 32: Starter

    Starter WARNING! When the recoil spring is wound up in the starter housing it is under tension and can, if handled carelessly, pop out and cause personal injury. Always be careful when changing the recoil spring or the starter cord. Always wear protective goggles.
