GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The Direct-Drive Chain Saws are available in lengths
of
14", 20"
and
24".
Construction
is
of magnes-
ium and aluminum casting plus a light weight en-
gine resulting in a unit that will give rugged, heavy
duty performance with minimum amount of effort on
the part of the operator.
The special alloy steel guide bar
is
hardened
throughout and nose
is
"hard welded" for longer
life and smoother performance. Finger tip plunger
assures proper lubrication of bar and chain during
operation.
The chain saw
is
equipped with a diaphagm type
carburetor which
is
superior to the float type in
that
it will not normally flood the unit.
As
it
is
a
gravity feed type, the saw can be used in any cutting
position that allows proper gasoline flow from
tank
to carburetor.
The handle and pistol
grip design gives perfect bal-
ance to unit at all cutting
angle^.
ASSEMBLY
The unit is Upped in two cartons, one containing the
power head and the other the guide
bar
and chain.
Remove the clutch cover
&
bar clamp assembly
covering the drive sprocket. Position the slot in
guide
bar
over mounting studs.
Place chain around
drive sprocket and guide bar.
Be
sure the chain
is
installed with cutters facing forward on the top side
of the guide
bar
and also that the chain
is
seated
in
the
guide bar groove at
all
points.
Replace the clutch cover
&
bar clamp assembly and
be
certain the tip of the chain tightener assembly
is
seated in the hole in guide bar. Do not tighten nuts
completely. The final chain tension adjustment
is
made
by
use of the adjusting screw on the front side
of clutch cover
&
bar clamp assembly.
When pro-
perly adjusted there should
be
from
3/16
to
1/4
inch
sag at center of bar between the side links of
the chain and the edge of the guide bar. Tighten
nuts holding clutch cover
&
bar clamp assembly and
then tighten chain adjusting screw.
Chain tension
is
very important and should
be
watched carefully.
Never tighten chain so tightly that it cannot
be
pulled
freely around guide bar.
The cutting efficiency of your direct drive saw de-
pends on proper filing of the chain. Keep the chain
sharp.
