Trueshopping Note: Sometimes you have to leave the choke on until the engine warms up, mastering the position of the choke lever is an art on all our petrol tools and you get used to the sound of the engine with more usage of the saw. When the throttle is first applied the “half throttle”...
Trueshopping Operating The Machine It is recommended to first practice sawing easy logs. This also helps you get accustomed to your unit. Removal of the safety devices, inadequate maintenance, or incorrect replacement of the bar or chain may increase the risk of serious personal injury.
Trueshopping It is extremely important that the chain brake is checked for proper operation before each use and that the chain is sharp in order to maintain the kickback safety level of this saw. Never start cutting until you have a clear work area, secure footing and a planned retreat path from the falling tree.
Trueshopping Cut at the correct engine speeds for the size and position of the sapling, branch or tree. Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height. It is not necessary to force the saw into to the cut, Apply only light pressure while running the engine at full throttle.
Trueshopping Use extreme caution when cutting small size brush and saplings because slender material may catch the saw chain and be whipped towards you or pull you off balance. When cutting a limb that is under tension, be alert for spring back so that you will not be struck when the tension in the wood fibbers is released.
Trueshopping Someone should be with you in case of an accident when you are using the chain saw, particularly if you are in a remote area. Have the telephone number and address of the nearest emergency unit, and always carry a first-aid kit when you work in the woods.
Trueshopping Kickback Safety Precautions Be aware that the chain saw may kickback if it gets stuck in the limb or branch you are cutting. See the next section for more information. With a basic understanding of kickback you can reduce or eliminate the element of surprise.
Trueshopping Keep a good grip on the saw with both hands, the right hand on the rear handle, and the left hand on the front handle, when the engine is running. Use a firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw handles. A firm grip will help you reduce kickback and maintain control of the saw.
Trueshopping Chain Saw Operation When using a chain saw to cut firewood, trim trees or harvest large timber, you need to perform three basic operations: felling, limbing and bucking. Felling involves cutting a standing tree and dropping it in the place you want it.
Trueshopping Felling A Tree Felling a tree can cause problems sometimes. You always want to ensure that you know exactly where the tree is going to land. Here is the 3 step plan. 1) Examine the Tree and Surroundings Look for any rot in the tree, where the branches are placed and how tall the tree is.
Trueshopping Ensure that there are no other trees in the area that you expect your tree to fall. This may cause the felled tree to become lodged in the other tree, or worse still, bounce off the tree and cause injury or damage.
Trueshopping 3) Make the Cuts Clear the area around the base of the tree from all brush, tree limbs and other obstructions. If the tree is less than ¼m then make the cut through the trunk. If the tree is larger then make two cuts – the undercut and the back cut.
Trueshopping 1,2 Undercut: is a V shaped notch on the side of the tree on the side that is in the direction of felling. The first cut (2) of the V is made parallel to the ground and then the other slanting cut (1) is made.
Trueshopping Figure 47 Felling The Tree The angled hinge means that the tree will start to fall on the narrow section of the hinge while the wood at the thicker section of the hinge is still intact. The tree is therefore pulled toward the thick section.
Trueshopping Limbing a Tree Never limb a tree when the limb is above shoulder height as this may cause you to lose control of the chain saw. Examine the Tree Evaluate a fallen tree to ensure that it is not lodged in another tree and not fallen completely to the ground.
Trueshopping Cutting the Limbs Stand firmly on the ground in a balanced position that gives freedom movement. Ensure that you will not slip. Start at the bottom of the tree and work your way to the top, removing branches on the opposite of the tree.
Trueshopping Bucking a Tree This is the process of cutting a tree into usable lengths and can be done as you are limbing the tree. If the tree is laying on the ground, ensure that you do not get your saw blade caught in the earth or on any other debris that may be present.
Trueshopping Maintenance Always be sure to turn off the engine before performing any maintenance or checking procedures. Leave all maintenance other than mentioned in this manual to your servicing dealer. The metallic parts reach high temperatures immediately after stopping the engine.
Trueshopping Chain Oil Use motor oil SAE#10W-30 all year round or SAE #30-#40 in summer and SAE #20 in winter. Do not use wasted or regenerated oil that can cause damage to the oil pump. Changing Oil Supply Be sure to refill the oil tank every time when refuelling the unit.
Trueshopping Adjusting Carburettor The carburettor on your unit has been factory adjusted but may require fine turning due to change in operating conditions. Before adjusting the carburettor, make sure that provided are clean air/fuel filters and fresh, properly mixed fuel.
Trueshopping Carburettor Antifreeze Mode Operating the chain saw in temperatures of 0-5°at times of high humidity may result in ice forming within the carburettor, and this in turn may cause the output power of the engine to be reduced or for the engine to fail to operate smoothly.
Trueshopping mode when temperature has risen and returned to normal may result in the engine failing to start properly or in the engine failing to operate at its normal speed. For this reason you should ALWAYS be sure to return the unit to normal operating mode if there is NO danger of icing occurring.
Trueshopping Saw Chain It is very important for smooth and safe operation to keep the cutters sharp. Always wear gloves when doing this. Your cutters need to be sharpened when: Sawdust becomes powder-like. You need extra force to saw in.
