Page 12: Operation
LUBRICATION Chain life and cutting capacity depend on optimum lubrication. Therefore, the chain is automatically oiled during operation via the oil outlet. CAUTION The Chainsaw IS NOT supplied filled with chain oil. It is essential to fill the oil canister with chain oil before use. Never operate the chainsaw without chain oil or at an empty oil tank level, as this will result in extensive damage to the product, not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty. - Page 13 CUTTING PRIOR TO CUTTING, IS THE OIL RESERVOIR FILLED? Check the oil level gauge prior to starting & regularly during operation. Refill the oil tank when the level is low. A full oil tank, will last approximately 16 minutes, depending on sawing intensity and stops. IS THE CHAIN LUBRICATED SUFFICIENTLY? A correct operation of the automatic oiler can be checked by running the chainsaw and pointing the tip of the chain bar, towards a piece of cardboard or paper positioned on the ground...
- Page 14 GENERAL BEHAVIOR Always hold the chainsaw firmly with both hands. Front grip with the left hand and the rear grip with the right hand. Ensure the electrical power cord is located to the rear, away from the chain and the wood being cut, positioned so that it will be caught on branches or the like during cutting.
- Page 15 CUTTING LOGS Observe the following safety instructions: Support logs so that the face sides at the cut do not close in against each other, which would result in the chain being jammed or pinched. Position and set short logs safely prior to sawing. Saw only wood or wooden objects. When sawing, always take care to avoid hitting stones, nails etc, as these could be thrown up, cause damage to the chain or serious injury to the operator or bystanders.
- Page 16 Notching undercut: Make the notch (X-W) 1/3 the diameter of the tree, perpendicular to the direction of falls as make the lower horizontal notching cut first. This will help to avoid pinching either the saw chain or the guide bar when the second notch is being made. Felling back cut: Make the felling back cut (Y) at least 50 mm higher than the horizontal notching cut.

Page 17: Trouble Shooting
When bucking on a slope always stand on the uphill side of the log, as illustrated. When “cutting through”, to maintain complete control, release the cutting pressure near the end of the cut without relaxing your grip on the chainsaw handles. Don’t let the chain contact the ground. After completing the cut, wait for the saw chain to stop, before you move the chainsaw. - Page 18 PARTS DIAGRAM...
