All Operators Must Read These

Instructions Before Use

Read all the instructions contained in this manual. Keep this

manual in a safe place, so that the information is available at

all times. If you give the equipment to another person, make

sure to provide these operating instructions. Basic safety

precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of

re, electric shock, and personal injury.

Notice the personal safety alert symbol m used in this

manual to draw your attention to a WARNING given along

with the particular operating instruction. This means that

the operation requires special ATTENTION, CAUTION, and

AWARENESS.

Know Your Tool and Its Capabilities

This machine is a battery-powered portable chain saw that is

designed for residential use.

This machine is composed of an electric motor, which drives a

chain that runs on a bar.

The double braking system stops chain movement when the

motor is stopped or in the event of kickbacks while working.

Intended use

This machine was designed and manufactured for felling,

bucking, and delimbing trees or cutting wooden objects with

dimensions suitable for the cutting bar's capabilities.

Improper use

Any other use diering from the above mentioned applications

poses a serious hazard to the user and may damage both the

tool and your personal property. Examples of improper use

include, but are not limited to:

• trimming hedges;

• carving;

• sectioning pallets, crates, and various packing materials;

• sectioning furniture or other materials with nails, screws, or

other metal components;

• butchering meat;

• using the machine to lift, move, or split objects;

• using the machine while fastened to xed supports.

Improper use of the machine will invalidate the warranty,

relieve the manufacturer from all liabilities, and the user will

consequently be liable for all and any damage or injury to

himself/herself or others.

General Power Tool

Safety Warnings

mWARNING! Read all safety warnings and all

instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions

may result in electric shock, re, and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your

battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

Work area safety

1. Keep the work area clean and well-lit. Cluttered, dark

areas invite accidents.

2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,

such as in the presence of ammable liquids, gases, or

dust. Power tools create sparks ,which may ignite the

dust or fumes.

3. Keep children, bystanders, and pets a safe distance away

from the power tool during operation and as the machine

cools. Children must always be supervised to ensure that

they do not play with the equipment.

Electrical safety

1. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces,

such as pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerators. There

is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is

earthed or grounded.

2. Do not expose power tools or chargers to rain or wet

conditions. Water entering a power tool or charger will

increase the risk of electric shock.

Personal safety

1. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common

sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power

tool while you are tired or under the inuence of drugs,

alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while

operating a power tool may result in serious personal

injury.

• When cutting a limb that is under tension, be cautious of spring back. When the tension in the wood fibers is released, the spring-loaded limb may strike the operator and/or throw the chain saw out of control. • Follow the manufacturer’s sharpening and maintenance instructions for the saw chain. Decreasing the depth gauge height can lead to increased kickback. • Always observe the safety regulations and follow the correct sawing techniques. • Use extreme caution when cutting brush and saplings.

• Limbing a tree Make the notch 1/3 the diameter of the tree, perpendicular to the direction of falls as illustrated (Fig. 17). Limbing is the process in which branches are removed from a fallen tree. When limbing, leave larger lower limbs to support the log off the ground. Remove the small limbs in one cut as illustrated (Fig. 18). Branches under tension should be cut from the bottom up to avoid binding the chain saw. Fig. 17 2 in. (50 mm) 2 in. (50 mm) Fig.
PAGE 16
ii) When the log is supported on one end (Fig. 19B), cut 1/3 the diameter from the underside (underbuck). Then make the finished cut by overbucking to meet the first cut. Fig. 19B iv) It is easier to saw a log using the spiked bumper (Fig. 19D). 2 1 – Dig the spiked bumper into the log and use it as a pivot. Cut with an arched motion to make the bar penetrate the wood. – Repeat several times if necessary, changing the point where you plant the spiked bumper.

• If there is excessive dirt or resin build-up, disassemble the chain and place it in a container with a suitable cleanser. Then rinse it with clean water and treat it with a suitable anticorrosive spray before reassembling it on the machine. • Fit the cutting bar sheath onto the bar before storing. mWARNING! Let the motor cool completely before storing the chain saw in any enclosure. During normal saw operation, the temperature of the chain will increase.
PAGE 18
An authorized service center will sharpen the chain using the right tools to ensure minimum removal of material and even sharpness on all the cutting edges. – the length of the cutting edges decreases to 5 mm or less; – there is too much play between the links and the rivets. If you sharpen the chain yourself, use special round-section files with the right diameter depending on the type of chain (see “Chain Maintenance Table” pg. 18).
PAGE 19
Bar Maintenance • reassemble the tension adjuster on the other side of the overturned bar, or on the new bar; To avoid asymmetrical wear on the bar, make sure it is turned over periodically. • apply a small amount of “threadlocker” on two or three screw threads (following the instructions provided by the manufacturer), then tighten the screw as far as possible; To keep the bar in perfect working order, proceed as follows (Fig.
