such as non-fogging, vented goggles

or face screen; an approved safety

hard hat; and sound barriers (ear

plugs or mufflers)to protect your

hearing. Regular users should have

hearing checked regularly as chain

saw noise can damage headng. Se-

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 feet (10 meters)

away from the work area when start-

ing and usingthe saw.

•Do not handle or operate a chain saw

when you am fatigued, ill, or upset, or

If you have taken alcohol, drugs, or

medication.You must be in good

physicalcond'_ionand mentally alert.

If you have any condition that might

be aggravated by strenuous work,

check with doctor before ope.rating,

• Do not start cutting until you have a

dear work area, secure footing, and

especially if you are felling a tree, a

retreat path.

OPERATE YOUR SAW SAFELY

• Do not operate with one hand. Seri-

ous injury to the operator, helpers, or

bystanders may resultfrom one-

handed operation. A chain saw is in-

tended for two-handed use.

• Operate the chain saw only in-a well_

•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

contactwith 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 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 muffler away from

body; guide bar & chain projecting be-

hind you; guide bar preferably cov-

ered w,th a scabbard.

•Store the unit and fuel in a cool, dry

well ventilated space where fuel va-

porscannot reach sparks or open

flames from water heaters, electric

motors or switches, furnaces, etc.

Follow all safety roles to help avoid

kickback and other forces whichcan

result in sedous injury.

•Have all chain saw service Performed

by a qualified service dealer except

the items listed in the maintenance

leased. For correction, refer to "Car-

buretor Adjustments."

Pinch-Kickback and Pull-In occur when

the chain is suddenly stopped by being

pinched, caught, or by contacting a for-

stopping of the chain results in a rever-

•Be extremely aware of situations or

obstructionsthat can cause matedai

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:

ilways begin cutting with the engine

CHECK CHAIN SHARPNESS

A sharp chain,makes wood chips. A

dull chain makes asawdust powder

and cuts slowly.

CHAIN SHARPENING

Chain sharpening requires special

tools.You can purchasa sharpening

toolsat Sears or go to a professional

chain sharpener.

CHECK GUIDE BAR

Conditions which require guide bar

maintenance:

• Saw cutsto one side or at an angle.

•Saw has to be forced through the cut.

•Inadequate sup.plyof oilto bar/chain.

Check the cond'itlonof guide bar each

time chain is sharpened. A worn guide

bar will damage the chain and make

cutting diff'_cult.To maintain guide bar:.

•Move On/Stop switch to "Stop."

•Remove bar and chain from saw.

•Clean all sawdust and any other

debrls from the guide bar groove and

sprocket hole after each use.

• Add lubdcantto sprocket hole after

each use.

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 tum of the screw. The

chain must not move at idle speed.

Carburetor adjustment is c_ 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, cell our customer assistance help

line at 1-800-235-5878.

Old fuel, a dirty air filter, dirtyfuel filter,

or flooding may give the impression of

an improperly adjusted carburetor.

Check these conditionsbefore adjust-

ing the carburetor.

The carburetor has been carefully sat at

the factory.Adjustments may be neces-

sary if you notice any of the following

conditions:

Start motor, let it run for 3 minutes, and

proceed tothe adjustment esc_on. If

engine does not start, refer to tmuble-

shooUngcha.,tor call 1-800-235-5878.

If engine performance is acceptable at

the preset positionsand there is no

chain movement at idle, no further ad-

justment is necessary.

ADJUSTING PROCEDURE

Idle Spasd-T

Allow engine to idle. Adjustspeed until

engine runswithoutchain movement or

stalling.

• Turn clock'_.sa to increase engine

speed if engine stalls or dies.

•Turn counterclockwiseto decrease

speed.

No further adjustments are necessary if

chmn 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, tum mixture screw

clockwise in 1/16-tum increments until

performance.i_ satisfactory.Repeat this

procedure as necessary for proper ad-

justment. After completing

check for acceleration and chain

ment at idle. Reset if necessary.

•Chain moves at idle. See "Idle Speed" High Speed Mixture-H

under adjusting procedure.

• Saw will not idle. See "Idle Speed"

and "LowSpeed Mixture"under ad-

justingprocedure.

•Engine dies or hesitates when it

should accelerate. See "Acceleration

Check" under adjusting procedure.

•Loss of cutting power. See "High

Speed_lixture H• under adjusting

procedure.

There are three adjustment screws on

the carburetor. They am labeled H, L,

" and T. They ere located in the area just

above the primer bulb.

CARBURETOR PRESETS

+When making adjustments, do notforce

the plastic limlter caps beyond the

stops or damage will occur.

if carburetor presets are not needed,

proceed to "idle Spoed-T."

•Turn both mixture screws cpunter-

d o¢inm-sauntilthey stop.

• Tum'ffT_eidle speed screw clockwise

until it stops. Now tum counterclock-

wise 4-1/2full turns.

DO NOT operate engine at fullthrottle

for prolonged periods while making ad-

justments. Damage to the engine can

occur. Make a test cut. Baesdon per-

formance of the saw while cutting, ad-

just the high speed mixture setting in

1/16-turnincrements as follows:

• Clockwiseunti saw has good powerin

the cutwilh nc hesitstion.Do nct adjust

by orspesd, judgebyhow

wellthe saw peforms inthe cut.

•Counterclockwiseif 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.

gum deposits during storage. Add stabi-

lizer to the gasoline in the fuel tank or

fuel storage container. Follow the mix

instructionsfound on stabilizer contain-

ere. Run engine at least 5 minutes after

adding stabilizer.

CRAFTSMAN 40:1, 2-cycle engine oil
