Cutting Instructions
General
◆ This chain saw is designed for cutting wood. Do not cut
metal, plastic or any non-wood material.
◆ Wear suitable hearing
protection such as
earmuffs or earplugs to
protect against
objectionable or
uncomfortable loud noises.
◆ Do not let the tip of the bar
touch anything while the
engine is running. At
cutting speed the chain is
moving at a high rate of
speed. Should the tip
contact a limb or log while
the chain is moving, the tip
will be pushed upward with
considerable force. This is known as kickback. Avoid it!
In all circumstances the operation of the chain saw is a one-man job. It is
difficult at times to take care for your own safety, so don’t assume the
responsibility for a helper as well. After you have learned the basic
techniques of using the saw, your best aid will be your own good common
sense.
The accepted way to hold the saw is
to stand to the left of the saw with
your left hand on the front handlebar
and your right hand on the rear
handle so you can operate the throttle
trigger with your right index finger.
Before attempting to fell a tree, cut
some small logs or limbs. Become
thoroughly familiar with the controls
and the responses of the saw.
