TO AVOID KICKBACK The best protection from personal injury that may result from Kickback is to avoid Kickback situations. s_cond. The chain brake can also be engaged manually by pushing the lever-handguard towards the front of the saw until a loud click is heard. The saw should not be run above idle for more than a few seconds with the brake engaged; otherwise damage to the saw will occur. • Hold the chain saw firmly with both hands and maintain a secure grip.

Compare the illustration below (Figure 4) with your chain saw to familiarize yourself with the location of various controls and adjustments.
FUEL MIXTURE CHART GASOUNE I Gallon 2.5 Ganons counterclockwise (+) increases the amount of oil, clockwise (-) decreases the flow. Never cut without chain lubrication. Check proper level before each cutting. OIL 3.2 Ounces 8.0 Ounces RGURE 5 MPORTANT! ,Alcohol blended fuels called gasohol using ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture, _hich leads to fuel - oil separation'and formation of Lcids during storage. Acidic gas can damage the fuel system of an engine while in storage.
RGURE 6 STARTING WARM I. Pull choke knob out. 2. Push choke knob back into open position, red indicator pin on choke button remains visible. 3. Crank engine and allow to run briefly. 4. Depress throttle lever to allow engine to run at idle speed (indicator pin disappears). If you are unsuccessful in starting the engine, consult the Troubleshooting guide in your Craftsman chain saw handbook or contact a Sears Sen/ice Center. Clear escape route by removing undergiowth likely to interfere with escape.
FIGURE 8 CAUTION: Maintain good footing, body balance and insure a safe escape path has been established. Never fell a tree without making a proper felling notch (undercut). The next cut (Fig. 11) is called the felling cut (back cut). Make it at least 2" higher than the lower cut of the felling notch by cutting horizontally and parallel to the felling notch. Do not cut through to the felling notch. Leave a "hinge" of uncut wood approximately 1/10 of the tree diameter (Fig. 11).
6. Craftsman saws are designed to allow the powerhead to glide over the trunk during limbing. Cut the branches in a swinging back and forth movement with the saw remaining on the tree. This is known as the =pendulum method." 7. Prior to cutting the branches, consider the direction in which the branches may fall. This will determine whether you cut from the top down (overbuck, Fig. 16) or from below up (underbuck, Fig. 17). 8. Watch out for branches under tension which can snap back.
FIGURE 20 BUCKING (The cutting of a log into sections): 1. Be alert to the stress and motion of logs. Always position yourself to prevent the rolling of a cut log section or the stress forces within a log from acting against you. 2. Never stand directly behind the chain saw when cutting. Stand to the left side of the cutting path of the chain saw to reduce the chances of injury from kickback or a broken chain shooting backwards towards you (Fig. 18, 1). 3. Bend the knees slightly.
MAINTENANCE CHECK CHAIN SHARPNESS A sharp chain makes wood chips. A dull chain makes a sawdust powder and cuts slowly. Chain sharpening requires special tools. You can purchase sharpening tools at Sears or go to a professional chain sharpener. SCHEDULE FIGURE 22 REFILL BAR AND CHAIN OIL Your saw will use approximately one tank of bar oil for every tank of fuel mix. Always fill bar oil tank when you fill the fuel tank. For maximum bar and chain life, we recommend you use Craftsman chain saw bar oil.
Clean the oil inlet hole (Fig. 26, A) and the bar groove prior to placing the chain in the bar groove. RGURE 28 Retainingclip FIGURE 26 Pre-fllter Air filter REPLACE SPARK PLUG Change your spark plug each year to make your engine start easy and run better. Set spark plug gap at .020". With sprocket nose bars (Fig. 27), grease the bearings of the sprocket with a grease gun containing bearing grease. Pump the grease into the clean.ed out holes while rotating the sprocket.
RGURE 33 WARNING: Shut off engine before attempting to adjust the chain tension. Additionally, disconnect the spark plug wire. Wear gloves when handling chains to prevent injury. To adjust the tension: 1. Loosen the bar nuts using the Combi-wrench. 2. Turn the tension screw clockwise (Fig. 30, 1) until 'the chain touches and no longer sags at the underside of the bar. FIGURE 30 2. Clean the surface between the bar and the guide plate (Fig. 34, A); and the oilier opening (Fig 34, 3.
