OPERATEYOUR SAW SAFELY

• Do not operate with one hand. Sed-

trained to do so.

•Make sure the chain will not make

contactwith any objectwhile starting

the engine. Never tryto startthe saw

when the guide bar is in a cut.

• Do not put pressure on the saw, ss-

pecially at the end of the cut. Doing

so can cause you to lose control

when the cut is completed.

•Stop engine before setting saw down.

•Hand carry saw onlywhen engine is

stopped. Carry with muffleraway from

•Do not cut more than one log at a

time.

•Do not twist saw as bar is withdrawn

from an undercut when bucking.

Avoid Pull-In:

•Always begin cutting with the engine

at full speed and the saw housing

against wood.

•Use wedges made of plastic or wood.

Never use metal to hold the cut open.

MAINTAIN CONTROL

KICKBACK SAFETY FEATURES

WARNING: The followingfeatures are

Includedon yoursaw to help reduce

hazard of kickback;however, such fea-

tures will not totally eliminate this dan-

ger. Do not rely onlyon safety devices.

•Handguard: designed to reduce the

chance of your left hand contacting

the chain if your hand slips offthe

front handlebar.

•Positionof front and rear handlebars:

designed with distance between han-

dles and "in-line"with each other.The.

spread and "in-line"position of the

hands provided by this design work

together to give balance ano resis-

tance in controlllngthe pivotof the

back occurs.

GUIDE BAR AND CHAIN OIL

The chain oiler prov]dee continuouslu-

bricatlonto the chain and guide bar. Be

sure to fillthe bar oil tank when youfill

the fuel tank (Capacity = 6.8 ft. oz.).

For maximum guide bar and chain life,

we recommend you use Craftsman

chain saw bar oil. If Craftsman bar oil Is

notavailable, you may use a good

grade SAE 30 oiluntll you are able to

obtainCraftsman brand. The oiloutput

is automatically metered duringopera-

tion. Yoursaw will use approximately

one tank ofbar odfor every tank offuel

mix. Always fillthe bar oiltank when

you fillthe fuel tank.

FUELING ENGINE

This engine is certified to operate on

unleaded gasoline. Before operation,

gasoline must be mixed with agood

quality2-cycle alr-coolnd engine oil. We

recommend Craftsman brand oil. Mix

gasoline and oil at aratio of 40:1 (A

40:1 ratio is obtained by mixing 3.2

ounces of oli with I gallon of unleaded

gasoline). DO NOTUSE automotive oil

or boat oil. These oils will cause engine

damage. When mixing fuel followthe

instructionsprinted on the container.

Once oll is added to the gasoline,

shake container momentarily to assure

that the-fuel is thoroughly mlxnd.

OPERATING TIPS

•Check chain tensionbefore firstuse

and after J minute of operation. See

Chain Tension in the Maintenance

section.

•Cut wood only. Do not cut metal, plas-

tics, masonry,non-woodbuildingma-

tadals, etc..

•, Stop the saw if the chain strikes a for-

algn object. Inspectthe saw and re-

pair parts as necessary.

• Keep the chain out of dirtand send.

Even a small amount of dirt will quick-

ly dulla chain and Increase the possi-

bilityof kickback.

•Practice cutting a few small logs using

the followingsteps. This will help you

get the "feel"of usingyoursaw before

you begin a major sewing operation.

•Squeeze the throttletrigger and ak

lowthe engine to reach fullspeed

beforecuffing.

• Begincuttingwith the saw frame

againstthe log.

•Keep the engine at full speed the

entire time you are cutting.

•Allowthe chain to cut for you. Exert

onlylightdownward pressure.

•Release'the throttlerigger as soon

as the cut is completed, allowingthe

engine to idle. If you run the saw at

fullthrottlewithout a cutting load,

unnecessarywear can occur. .

•To avoid losingcontrolwhen cut is

complete, do notput pressure on

saw at end of cuL

•Stop enginebefore settingsaw down.

TREE FELLING TECHNIQUES

WARNING: Check for broken or dead

branches which can fall while cutting

causing sedous injury.Do not outnear

knowthe directionof tree fall, nor cut at

nightsince you will notbe able to see

well, nor duringbad weather such as

rain, snow, or strongwinds, etc.

•Clear the work area You need a clear

area all around the tree so you can

have secure footing

•Studythe natural condftlonsthat can

cause the tree to fall in.a particular

(6 inches in diameter or larger)

The notch method is used to fell large

trees. A notchis cut on the side of the

tree in the desired directionof fall. After

a fellingcut is made on the opposite

side of tree, the tree will tend to fall in

NOTE: If tree has large buttress roots,

NOTCH CUT AND FELLING TREE

•Make notch cut by cuffing the top of

the notch timt. Cut through 1/3 of the

diameter ofthe tree. Next complete

the notch by cuffingthe bottom.See

•Be extremely cautious with partially

fallen trees that may be poorly sup-

ported.When a tree doesn't fall com-

pletely,set the saw aside and pull
