cure hair above shoulder length.

Keep all parts of your body away from

the chain when the engine is running.

Keep children, bystanders, and ani-

mals at least 30 feat (10 meters)

away from the work area when start-

ing and usingthe saw.

Do not handle or operate a chain saw

when you are fatigued, ill, or upset, or

if you have taken alcohol, drugs, or

medication. You must be in good

physicalcondition and mentally alert.

If you have any condition that might

be aggravated by strenuous work,

check with doctor before operating.

Do not start cuffing untilyou have a

clear work area, secure foob'ng,and

especially if you are felling a tree, a

retreat path.

OPERATE YOUR SAW SAFELY

• Donotoperatewithonehand.Seri-

ousinjuryto the operator,helpers,or

bystandersmayresultfrom one-

handedoperation.A chainsawis in-

tendedfor two-handeduse.

• Operatethe chain saw only in awell-

ventilated outdoor area.

•Do not operate saw from a ladder or

in a tree, unless you are specifically

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, es-

pecially at the end ofthe cut. Doing

so can cause you to lose control

when the cut is completed.

•Stop engine before setting saw down.

•Hand carry saw only when engine is

stopped. Carry with muffler away from

body; guide bar & chain projecting be-

hind you; guide bar preferably cov-

ered with a scabbard.

MAINTAIN YOUR SAW IN GOOD

WORKING ORDER

•Have all chain saw service performed

by a qualified service dealer except

the items listed inthe maintenance

section of this manual.

•Make certain the saw chain stops

moving when the throttle trigger is re-

leased. For correction, refer to "Car-

buretor Adjustments."

•Keep the handles dry, clean, and free

from oil or fuel mixture.

• Keep caps and fasteners securely

tightened.

•Use only Craftsman accessodas and

replacement parts as recommended.

Never modify your saw.

HANDLE FUEL WITH CAUTION

•Do not smoke while handling fuel or

while operating the saw.

• Eliminate all sources of sparks or flame

in areas where fuel is mixed or poured.

•Mix and pour fuel in an outdoor area

and use an approved, marked con-

tainer for all fuel purposes. Wipe up

all fuel spills before starting saw.

•Move at least 10 feet (3 meters) from

fueling site before starting.

•Turn the engine off and let saw cool in

a non-combustible area, not on dry

leaves, straw, paper, etc. Slowly re-

move fuel cap and refuel unit.

•Store the unit and fuel in a cool, dry

well ventilated space where fuel va-

pors cannot reach sparks or open

flames from water heaters, electric

motors or switches, furnaces, etc.

GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK

Follow all safety rules to help avoid

kickback and other forces which can

result in sedous injury.

'_ _ Kickback Path

Avoid Obstructions

ClearThe Working Area

WARNING: Rotational Kickback can

occur when the moving chain contacts

an object at the upper portion of the tip

of the guide bar. Contact at the upper

portion of the tip of the guide bar can

cause the chain to dig into the object,

which stops the chain for an instant. The

result is a lightning fast, reverse reaction

which kicks the guide bar up and back

toward the operator.

Pinch-Kickback and Pull-in occur when

the chain is suddenly stopped by being

pinched, caught, or by contacting a for-

eign object in the wood. This sudden

stopping of the chain results in arever-

sal of the chain force used to cut wood

and causes the saw to move in the op-

posite direction of the chain rotation.

Pinch-Kickback drives the saw straight

back toward the operator. Pull-In pulls

the saw away from the operator.

REDUCE THE CHANCE OF

KICKBACK

•Recognize that kickbackcan happen.

With a basic understandingof Idckback,

you can reducethe element of surpdse

which contributesto accidents.

Never !at the moving chain contact

_any at the ofthe guide bar.

object Up

Keep working area free from obstruc-

tions such as other trees, branches,

rocks,fences, stumps, etc. Eliminate

or avoid any obstruction that your saw

chain could hRwhile cutting.

•Kee? saw chain sharp and properly

tanmoned. A loose or dull chain can

increasethe chanceof kickback.Fol-

lowmanufacturer'schainsharpening

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

Thumbon

underside_

of handleba= \!

keep your body from being in a direct

line with the cutting chain.

•Stand with your weight evenly bal-

anced 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 fea-

tures will not totally eliminate this dan-

ger. 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 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 and resis-

tance in controllingthe pivot of the

saw back toward the operator if kick-

back occurs.

•Reduced-Kickback Guide Bar: de-

signed with a small radius tip which

reduces the size of the kickback dan-

ger zone. This type bar has been

demonstrated to significantly reduce

the number and seriousness of kick-

backs when tested in accordance with

ANSI B175.1.

guarantee the avoidance of these

problems. Users who operate power

tools on a continual and regular basis

must closely monitor their physical

condition and the condition of this tool.

CHAIN BRAKE If this saw is to be u_sbd

for commercial logging, you must order

and install a chain brake to comply with

Federal OSHA Regulations for Com-

mercial Logging. Contact your Sears

Service Center or call 1-800-235-5878.

SPARK ARRESTOR: Your saw is

equipped with a temperature limiting

muffler and spark arresting screen

which meets the requirements of

California Codes 4442 and 4443. All

U.S. forest land and the states of

California, Idaho, Maine, Minnesota,

New Jersey, Oregon, and Washington

require by law that many internal

combustion engines be equipped with a

spark arrestor screen. If you operate a

chain saw in a state or locale where

such regulations exist, you are legally

responsible for maintaining the

operating condition of these parts.

Failure to do so is a violation of the law.

Refer to Customer Responsibilities

chart in the k_AtWi'ENANCEsection.

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE

WARNING: Be sure to read the fuel

handling in._.rmation in the safety rules

section of th,s manual before you begln.

If you do not understand the fuel han-

dling information do not attempt to fuel

your unit. Seek help from someone that

the customer assistance help line at

1-800-235-5878.

GUIDE BAR AND CHAIN OIL

The chain oiler provides continuous lu-

brication to the chain and guide bar. Be

sure to fill the bar oil tank when you fill

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

not available, you may use a good

grade SAlE30 oil until you are able to

obtain Craftsman brand. The oil output

is automatically metered during opera-

tion. Your saw will use approximately

one tank of bar oil for every tank of fuel

mix. Always fill the bar oil tank when

you fill the fuel tank.

FUELING ENGINE

This engine is certified to operate on

unleaded gasoline. Before operation,

gasoline must be mixed with a good

quality 2-cycle air-cooled engine oil. We

recommend Craftsman brand oil. Mix

gasoline and oil at a ratio of 40:1 (A

40:1 ratio is obtained by mixing 3.2

ounces of oil with 1 gallon of unleaded

gasoline). DO NOT USE automotive oil

or boat oil. These oils will cause engine

damage. When mixing fuel follow the

instructions printed on the container.

Once oil is added to the gasoline,

shake container momentarily to assure

that the fuel is thoroughly mixed.

Always read and follow the safety rules

relating to fuel before fueling your unit.

IMPORTANT

Experience indicatesthat alcohol blended

fuels (calledgasohol or usingethanol or

methanol) can at_act moisturewhich

leads to separationand formationof

acidsdudng storage. Acidicgas can

damage the fuel system of an engine

while in storage.

To avoid engine problems,the fuel sys-

tem shouldbe emptied before storagefor

30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank,

startthe engine and let it run untilthe fuel

linesand carburetorare empty. Use fresh

fuel next season. See STORAGEinstruc-

tions for additional information.

Never use engine or carburetor cleaner

products in the fuel tank or permanent

damage may occur.

See the STORAGE section for additional

information.

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, plas-

tics, masonry, non-wood building ma-

terials, etc.

•Stop the saw if the chain strikes a for-

eign object. Inspect the saw and re-

pair parts as necessary.

•Keep the chain out of dirt and sand.

Even a small amount of dirt will quick-

ly dull a chain and increase the possi-

bility 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 al-

low 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 settingsaw down.

TREE FELLING TECHNIQUES

WARNING: Check for broken or dead

branches which can fall while cutting

causing serious injury. Do not cut near

buildingsor electrical wires if you do not

know the direction of tree fall, nor cut at

nightsince you will not be able to see

well, nor during bad weather such as

rain, snow, or strong winds, etc.

•Carefully plan your sawing operation

in advance.

•Clear the work area. You need a clear

area all around the tree so you can

have secure footing.

•Study the natural conditions that can

cause the tree to fall in a particular

direction. These conditions include:

•The wind direction and speed.

•The lean of the tree. The lean of a

tree might not be apparent due to

uneven or sloping terrain. Use a

plumbor levelto determinethe di-

rectionoftree lean.

•Weight and branches on one side.

•Surrounding trees and obstacles.

•Look for decay and rot. If the trunk is

rotted, it can snap and fall toward the

operator.

•Make sure there is enough room for

the tree to fall. Maintain a distance of

2-1/2 tree lengths from the nearest

person or other objects. Engine noise

can drown out a warning call.

•Remove dirt, stones, loose bark,

nails, staples, and wire from the tree

where cuts are to be made.

Plan a clearretreatpath

;_.... L ._--'m'_ - Direction of Fall

FELLING LARGE TREES

(6 inches in diameter or larger)

The notch method is used to fell large

trees. A notch is cut on the side of the

tree in the desired direction of fall. After

afelling cut is made on theopposite

side oftree, the tree will tend to fall in

the direction of the notch.

NOTE: If tree has large buttress roots,

remove them before making the notch.

NOTCH CUT AND FELLING TREE

•Make notch cut by cuffing the top of

the notch first. CUtthrough 1/3 of the

diameter of the tree. Next complete

the notch by cutting the bottom. See

illustration. Once the notch is cut, re-

move the wedge of wood from tree.

Finalcuthere

Firstcut

Hinge

•After removing the wood, make the

falling cut on the opposite side of the

notch. This is done by making a cut

about two inches higher than the cen-

ter of the notch. This will leave

enough uncut wood between the felt-

ing cut and the notch to form a hinge.

This hinge will help prevent the tree

from falling in the wrong direction.

Hinge holds tree on

stump and helps

control fail

Opening of

felling cut

NOTE: Before felling cut is complete,

use wedges to open the cut when

necessar,/to controlthe direction of fall.

To avoidklckback and chain damage,

use wood or plastic wedges, but never

steel or iron wedges.

•Be alert to signs that the tree is ready

to fall: cracking sounds, widening of

the felling cut, or movement in the up-

per branches.

•As tree starts to fall, stop saw, put it

down, and get away quickly on your

planned retreat path.

•Be extremely cautious with partially

fallen trees that may be poody sup-

ported. When a tree doesn't fall com-

pletely, set the saw aside and pull

down the tree with a cable winch,

block and tackle, or tractor. Do not

use your sawto cut down a partially

fallen tree.

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.

•Do not cut in an area where logs,

limbs,and roots are tangled. Drag logs

into a clear area before cuttingthem.

BUCKING TECHNIQUES

WARNING: If saw becomes pinched

or hung in a log, don_ttry to force it out.

You can lose control of the saw result-

ing in injury and/or damage to the saw.

Stop the saw, drive a wedge of plastic

orwoodintothe cutuntilthe saw can be

removed easily. Restartsaw and carefully

reenter the cut. Do not use a metal

wedge. Do not attemptto restartyour

saw when it is pinchedor hung in a log.

Use a wedge to remove pinched saw

Turn saw OFF and use a plastic or

wooden wedge to force cut open.

Overcutting begins on the top side of

the log with the bottom of the saw

against the log. When overcuffing use

light downward pressure.

Overcutting Undercutting

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

down to undercut, The saw cannot be

controlled in this position.

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 bal-

ance 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 pres-

sure. 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.

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 de-

scribed in the bucking section.

•Always use an overcut to cut small

and freely hanging limbs. Undercut-

ting could cause limbs to fall and

pinch the saw.

PRUNING

WARNING: Limit pruning to limbs

shoulder height or below. Do not cut if

CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES

branches are higher than your shoul-

der. 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.

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

The warranty on this unit does not cov-

er items that have been subjected to

operator abuse or negligence. To re-

ceive full value from the warranty, the

operator must maintain unit as instruct-

ed in this manual. Various adjustments

will need to be made periodically to

properly maintain your unit.

•Once a year, replace the spark plug,

air filter element, and check guide bar

and chain for wear. A new spark plug

and air filter element assures proper

air-fuel mixture and helps your engine

run better and last longer.

WARNING: Disconnect the spark plug

before performing maintenance except

for carburetor adjustments.

LUBRICATION

1 Bar 2 Bar Oil

Sprocket FillCap

1 Use sprocket lubrication

2 Use Craftsman chain saw bar oil

CHECK FOR DAMAGED OR

WORN PARTS

Replacement of damaged/_wom parts

should be referred to your Sears Ser-

vice Center.

NOTE: It is normal for a small amount

of oil to appear under the saw after en-

gine 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.

CHECK CHAIN TENSION

•Use the screwdriver end of the bar

tool to move chain around guide bar

to ensure kinks do not exist. The

chain should rotate freely.

Bar Clamp Nuts Bar Tool

•Loosen bar clamp nuts until they are

finger tight against the bar clamp.

•Turn adjusting screw until chain bare-

ly touches the bottom of guide bar.

•Using bar tool, rollchain around guide

barto ensure all linksare in bar groove.

•Lift up tip of guide bar to check for

sag. Release tip of guide bar, then

turn adjusting screw until sag does

not exist.

•While lifting tip of guide bar, tighten

bar clamp nuts with the bar tool.

Torque to 10-15 ft-lbs.

•Use the screwdriver end of the bar

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.

Check the condition of guide bar each

time chain is sharpened. A worn guide

bar will damage the chain and make

cutting difficult. To maintain guide bar:

•Move On/Stop switch to =Stop.n

•Remove bar and chain from saw.

•Clean all sawdust and any other

debris from the guide bar groove and

sprocket hole after each use.

Remove Sawdust From IJ J_..

Guide Bar Groov_

_i_ Sprocket Hole,

•Add lubricant to sprocket hole after

each use.

• Burring of guide bar rails is a normal

process of rail wear. Remove these

burrs with a flat file.

•When rail top is uneven, use a fiat file

to restore square edges and sides.

File Edges andsides Square

Worn Groove Correct Groove

Replace guide bar when the groove is

worn, the guide bar is bent or cracked,

or when excess heating or burring of

CLEAN AIR FILTER

A dirty air filter decreases the life and

performance of the engine and in-

creases fuel consumption and harmful

emissions. Always clean your air filter

after 15 tanks of fuel or 5 hours of op-

eration, 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, which-

ever 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.

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 dam-

age the engine as well as the carbure-

tor. If you require further assistance or

are unsure about performing this proce-

dure, 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 adjust-

ing the carburetor.

The carburetor has been carefully set at

the factory. Adjustments may be neces-

sary 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 ad-

justing 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 counter-

clockwise until they stop.

•Tum the idle speed screw clockwise

until it stops. Now turn counterclock-

wise 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 trouble-

shooting 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 ad-

justment 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 en-

gine 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 ad-

justment. After completing adjustments,

check for acceleration and chain move-

ment at idle. Reset if necessary.

High Speed Mixture-H

DO NOT operate engine at full throttle

for prolonged periods while making ad-

justments. Damage to the engine can

occur. Make a test cut. Based on per-

formance of the saw while cutting, ad-

just the high speed mixture setting in

1/16-turn increments as follows:

•Clockwiseuntilsaw has good power in

the cut with no hesitation.Do not adjust

by soundor speed, butjudge by how

well the saw performs in the cut.

•Counterclockwise if the saw has

speed, butdies 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,turnthe low speed mixture

adjustmentcounterclockwiseuntilyou

have smoothaccelerationwith no chain

movement at idle. Recheck and adjust as

necessaryfor acceptable performance.

Prepare your unit for storage at the end tive in minimizing the formation of fuel

of the season or if it willnot be used for

30 days or more.

WARNING:

• Allow the engine to cool, and secure

the unit before storing or transporting.

•Store chain saw and fuel in awell

ventilated area where fuel vapors

cannot reach sparks or open flames

from water heaters, electric motors or

switches, furnaces, etc.

•Store chain saw with all guards in

place and position chain saw so that

any sharp object cannot accidentally

cause injury.

•Store chain saw well out of the reach

of children.

EXTERNAL SURFACES
