trained to do so.
• Make sure the chain will not make
contact with any object while starting
the engine. Never try to start the saw
when the guide bar is in a cut.
• Do not put pressure on the saw, especially at the end of the cut. Doing
so can cause you to lose control
when the cut is completed.

and maintenance instructions. Check
tension at regular intervals, but never
with engine running. Make sure bar
clamp nuts are securely tightened.
• Begin and continue cutting at full
speed. If the chain is moving at a
slower speed, there is greater chance
of kickback occurring.
• Use extreme caution when reentering
a cut.
• Do not attempt cuts starting with the
tip of the bar(plunge cuts).
• Watch for shifting logs or other forces
that could close a cut and pinch or fall
into chain.
• Use the specified Reduced-Kickback
Guide Bar and Low-Kickback Chain,
Avoid Pinch-Kickback:
• Be extremely aware of situations or
obstructions that can cause material
to pinch the top of or otherwise stop
the chain.
• 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• Do not twist saw as bar is withdrawn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
Stand to the left of the saw

keep your body from being in a direct
line with the cutting chain.
• Stand with your weight evenly balanced on both feet.
• Do not overreach. You could be drawn
or thrown off balance and lose control.
• Do not cut above shoulder height. It is
difficult to maintain control of saw
above shoulder height,
KICKBACK SAFETY FEATURES
WARNING: The following features are
included on your saw to help reduce
hazard of kickback; however, such features will not totally eliminate this danger. Do not rely only on safety devices.
• Handguard: designed to reduce the
chance of your left hand contacting
the chain if your hand slips off the
front handlebar.
• Position of front and rear handlebars:
designed with distance between handles and =in-line" with each other. The
spread and "in-line" position of the
hands provided by this design work
together to give balance and resistance in controllingthe pivot of the
saw back toward the operator if kickback occurs.
• Reduced-Kickback Guide Bar: designed with a small radius tip which
reduces the size of the kickback danger zone. This type bar has been
demonstrated to significantly reduce
the number and seriousness of kickbacks when tested in accordance with
ANSI B175.1.

OPERATING
TIPS
• Check chain tension before first use
and after I minute of operation. See
Chain Tension in the Maintenance
section.
• Cut wood only. Do not cut metal, plastics, masonry, non-wood building materials, etc.
• Stop the saw if the chain strikes a foreign object. Inspect the saw and repair parts as necessary.
• Keep the chain out of dirt and sand.
Even a small amount of dirt will quickly dull a chain and increase the possibility of kickback.
• Practice cutting a few small logs using
the following steps. This will help you
get the =feel" of using your saw before
you begin a major sawing operation.
• Squeeze the throttle trigger and allow the engine to reach full speed
before cutting.
• Begin cutting with the saw frame
against the log.
• Keep the engine at full speed the
entire time you are cuffing.
• Allow the chain to cut for you. Exert
only light downward pressure.
• Release the throttle trigger as soon
as the cut is completed, allowing the
engine to idle. If you run the saw at
full throttle without a cutting load,
unnecessary wear can occur.
• To avoid losing control when cut is
complete, do not put pressure on
saw at end of cut.
• Stop engine before setting saw down.

STARTING A WARM ENGINE
DO NOT use the choke to start a warm
engine or flooding and hard starting
may occur.
• Move On/Stop switch to ON.
• Set fast idle lock.
• Be sure choke is in the OFF position.
• With saw on ground, grip front handle
with left hand and place your right foot
through rear handle.
• Pull starter rope handle until engine
starts.
• Squeeze and release throttle trigger
to return engine to idle speed.

CUTTING A FALLEN TREE

(BUCKING)
Bucking is the term used for cutting a
fallen tree to the desired log size.
WARNING: Do not stand on the log
being cut. Any portion can roll causing
loss of footing and control. Do not stand
downhill of the log being cut.
IMPORTANT POINTS
• Cut only one log at a time.
• Cut shattered wood very carefully;
sharp pieces of wood could be flung
toward operator.
• Use a sawhorse to cut small logs.
Never allow another person to hold
the log while cutting and never hold
the logwith your leg or foot.
Hinge
• Do not cut in an area where logs,
limbs, and roots are tangled. Drag logs
into a clear area before cuttingthem.

Undercutting involves cutting on the
underside of the log with top of saw
against the log. When undercutting use
light upward pressure. Hold saw firmly
and maintain control. The saw will tend
to push back toward you.
WARNING: Never turn saw upside

logs with a compression side.

LIMBING AND PRUNING
WARNING: Never climb into a tree to
limb or prune, Do not stand on ladders,
platforms, a log, or in any position
which can cause you to lose your balance or control of the saw.
IMPORTANT POINTS
• Watch out for springpoles.
Springpoles are small size limbs
which can whip toward you, or pull
you off balance, Use extreme caution
when cuffing small size limbs.
• Be alert for springback, Watch out for
branches that are bent or under pressure. Avoid being struck by the
branch or the saw when the tension in
the wood fibers is released.
• Frequently clear branches out of the
way to avoid tripping over them.
10

LIMBING
• Limb a tree only after it is cut down.
• Leave the larger limbs underneath the
felled tree to support the tree as you
work.
• Start at the base of the felled tree and
work toward the top, cutting branches
and limbs. Remove small limbs with
one cut.
• Keep the tree between you and the
chain.
• Remove larger, supporting branches
with the 1/3, 2/3 cutting techniques described in the bucking section.
• Always use an overcut to cut small
and freely hanging limbs. Undercutting could cause limbs to fall and
pinch the saw.

branches are higher than your shoulder. Get a professional to do the job.
• Make your first cut 1/3 of the way
through the bottom of the limb.
• Next make a second cut all the way
through the limb.
• Finish the pruning operation by using
an overcut so that the stump of the
limb protrudes 1 to 2 inches from the
trunk of the tree.

CHECK FOR DAMAGED
OR
WORN PARTS
Replacement of damaged/_wom parts
should be referred to your Sears Service Center.
NOTE: It is normal for a small amount
of oil to appear under the saw after engine stops. Do not confuse this with a
leaking oil tank.
• On/Stop Switch - Ensure On/Stop
switch functions properly by moving
the switch to the =Stop" position.
Make sure engine stops; then restart
engine and continue.
• Fuel Tank - Do not use saw if fuel
tank shows signs of damage or leaks.
• Oil Tank - Do not use saw if oil tank
shows signs of damage or leaks.

tool to move chain around guide bar.
• If chain does not rotate, it is too tight.
Slightly loosen bar clamp nuts and
loosen chain by tuming the adjusting
screw. Retighten bar clamp nuts.
• If chain is too loose, it will sag below
the guide bar. DO NOT operate the
saw if the chain is loose.
CHECK CHAIN SHARPNESS
A sharp chain makes wood chips. A
dull chain makes a sawdust powder
and cuts slowly,
CHAIN SHARPENING
Chain sharpening requires special
tools. You can purchase sharpening
tools at Sears or go to a professional
chain sharpener.

CHECK GUIDE BAR
Conditions which require guide bar
maintenance:
• Saw cuts to one side or at an angle.
• Saw has to be forced through the cut.
• Inadequate supply of oil to bar/chain.

CLEAN AIR FILTER
A dirty air filter decreases the life and
performance of the engine and increases fuel consumption and harmful
emissions. Always clean your air filter
after 15 tanks of fuel or 5 hours of operation, whichever comes first. Clean
more frequently in dusty conditions. A
used air filter can never be completely
cleaned. It is advisable to replace your
air filter with a new one after every 50
hours of operation, or annually, whichever comes first. To clean filter:
• Loosen 3 screws on cylinder cover.
• Remove cylinder cover.
• Remove air filter.
• Clean the air filter using hot soapy
water. Rinse with clean cool water.
Air dry completely before reinstalling.
• Lightly oil air filter before installing to
improve the efficiency of air filter. Use
2-cycle engine oil or motor oil (SAE
30). Squeeze excess oil from filter.
• Reinstall air filter.
• Reinstall cylinder cover and 3 screws
(15-20 in-lbs.).

CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT
WARNING: The chain will be moving
during most of this procedure. Wear
your protective equipment and observe
all safety precautions. During the low
speed mixture adjustment recheck idle
speed after each turn of the screw. The
chain must not move at idle speed.
Carburetor adjustment is critical and if
done improperly can permanently damage the engine as well as the carburetor. If you require further assistance or
are unsure about performing this procedure, call our customer assistance help
line at 1-800-235-5878.
Old fuel, a dirty air filter, dirty fuel filter,
or flooding may give the impression of
an improperly adjusted carburetor.
Check these conditions before adjusting the carburetor.
The carburetor has been carefully set at
the factory. Adjustments may be necessary if you notice any of the following
conditions:
• Chain moves at idle. See Uldle Speed"
under adjusting procedure.
• Saw will not idle. See "Idle Speed"
and "Low Speed Mixture"under adjusting procedure.
• Engine dies or hesitates when it
should accelerate. See =Acceleration
Check" under adjusting procedure.
• Loss of cutting power. See =High
Speed Mixture H" under adjusting
procedure.
There are three adjustment screws on
the carburetor. They are labeled H, L,
and T. They are located in the area just
above the primer bulb.
CARBURETOR
PRESETS
When making adjustments, do not force
the plastic limiter caps beyond the
stops or damage will occur.
If carburetor presets are not needed,
proceed to =Idle Speed-T."
• Turn both mixture screws counterclockwise until they stop.
•Tum the idle speed screw clockwise
until it stops. Now turn counterclockwise 4-1/2 full turns.

Start motor, let it run for 3 minutes, and
proceed to the adjustment section. If
engine does not start, refer to troubleshooting chart or call 1-800-235-5878.
If engine performance is acceptable at
the preset positions and there is no
chain movement at idle, no further adjustment is necessary.

ADJUSTING

PROCEDURE

Idle Speed-T
Allow engine to idle. Adjust speed until
engine runs without chain movement or
stalling.
• Turn clockwise to increase engine
speed if engine stalls or dies.
• Turn counterclockwise to decrease
speed.
No further adjustments are necessary if
chain does not move at idle speed and
if performance is satisfactory.
Low Speed Mixture-L
Allow engine to idle. Then accelerate
the engine and note performance. If engine hesitates, bogs down, or smokes
during acceleration, turn mixture screw
clockwise in 1/16-turn increments until
performance is satisfactory. Repeat this
procedure as necessary for proper adjustment. After completing adjustments,
check for acceleration and chain movement at idle. Reset if necessary.
High Speed Mixture-H
DO NOT operate engine at full throttle
for prolonged periods while making adjustments. Damage to the engine can
occur. Make a test cut. Based on performance of the saw while cutting, adjust the high speed mixture setting in
1/16-turn increments as follows:
• Clockwise untilsaw has good power in
the cut with no hesitation.Do not adjust
by soundor speed, but judge by how
well the saw performs in the cut.
• Counterclockwise if the saw has
speed, but dies in the cut or lacks
power in the cut.
After completing adjustments, check for
acceleration and chain movement at
idle. Reset if necessary.
Acceleration Check
If the engine dies or hesitates insteadof
accelerating,turn the low speed mixture

have smoothaccelerationwith no chain
movement at idle. Recheck and adjust as
necessary for acceptable performance.
