Never touch or adjust the chain while the

motor is running. The saw chain is very sharp.

Always wear protective gloves when performing

maintenance on the chain.

■ Stop the engine before setting the chain tension.

■ Make sure the bar mounting nuts are loosened to

finger tight. (Figure 37)

■ Turn the chain tensioning screw clockwise to tension

the chain. (Figure 44)

 A cold chain is correctly tensioned when there

is no slack on the underside of the guide bar, the

chain is snug, and it can be turned by hand without

binding.

■ Retension the chain whenever the flats on the drive

links (A) hang out of the bar groove. (Figure 3).

Note: During normal saw operation, the temperature

of the chain increases. The drive links of a correctly

tensioned warm chain will hang approximately

1.25mm out of the bar groove. The tip of the

combination wrench can be used as a guide to help

determine the correct warm chain tension.

Note: New chains tend to stretch; check the chain

tension frequently and tension as required.

Exposure to vibrations through prolonged use

of petrol powered hand tools could cause blood

vessel or nerve damage in the fingers, hands,

and joints of people prone to circulation disorders

or abnormal swellings. Prolonged use in cold

weather has been linked to blood vessel damage

in otherwise healthy people. If symptoms occur

such as numbness, pain, loss of strength,

change in skin color or texture, or loss of feeling

in the fingers, hands, or joints, discontinue the

use of this use of this tool and seek medical

attention. An anti-vibration system does not

guarantee the avoidance of these problems.

Users who operate power tools on a continual

and regular basis must monitor closely their

physical condition and the condition of this tool.

CHOKE LEVER

The choke lever opens and closes the choke valve in the

carburettor. Positions available include FULL CHOKE and

RUN.

FRONT HAND GUARD/ CHAIN BRAKE

The chain brake is designed to quickly stop the chain

from rotating. When the front hand guard/ chain brake is

pushed toward the bar, the chain should stop immediately.

The chain brake does not prevent kickback.

GUIDE BAR

The factory-equipped guide bar has a small radius tip that

offers reduced kickback potential.

LOW KICKBACK SAW CHAIN

The low kickback saw chain helps minimize the force of a

kickback reaction by preventing the cutters from digging in

too deeply at the kickback zone.
