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 using the 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. Yoe must be in good

physical condition and mentally alert.

If you have any condition that might

be aggravated by strenuous work,

check with doctor before operating.

•Do not start cutting until you have a

clear 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 injuryto the operator, helpers, or

bystanders may resultfrom one-

handed operation. A chain saw is in-

tended for two-handed use.

•Operate the chain saw onlyin a well-

ventilatedoutdoorarea.

•Do not operate saw from a ladder or

in a tree, unlessyou are specifically

trained to do so.

•Make sure the chain will not make

contactwith any objectwhile starting

the engine. Never tryto stad the saw

when the guide bar isin a cut.

•Do not put pressure on the saw, es-

peciallyat the end of the cut. Doing

so can cause you to lose control

when the cut is completed.

•Stop engine before settingsaw down.

•Hand carry saw only when engine is

stopped. Carry with muffleraway from

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 servicedealer except

the items listed in the maintenance

section of thismanual.

•Make certain the saw chain stops

movingwhen the throttletriggeris re-

leased. For correction,refer to =Car-

buretorAdjustments."

•Keep the handles dry, clean, and free

from oil or fuel mixture.

• Keep caps and fastenerssecurely

tightened.

•Use only Craftsman accessodes and

replacement parts as recommended.

Never modify yoursaw.

HANDLE FUEL WITH CAUTION

Do not smoke while handling fuel or

while operating the saw.

•Elirnina_ _ soun_ of s_ks or flan_

in areas where fuel ls 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,dr_

well ventilatedspace where fuel va-

pors cannot reach sparks or open

flames from water heaters, electdc

motors or switches, fumacas, etc.

GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK

Follow all safety rulesto help avoid

kickback and otherfomes whichcan

result insedous injury.

_10ckbackPath

Avoid Obstructions

Clear The WorkingAre_

WARNING: Rotational Kickback

occur when the movingchain contacts

an object at the upper portion of the tip

of the guide bar. Contact at the upper

portionof the,tip of _e guide bar can

cause the chain to d,g intothe object,

which stops the chain for an instant.The

resultis alightningfast, reversereaction

which kicksthe guide bar up and back

toward the operator.

Pinch-Kickback and PulHn occur when

the chain is suddenly stopped by being

pinched, caught, or by contacting afor-

eign object in the wood. This sudden

stopping ofthe chain resultsin a rever-

sal of the chain force used to cut wood

and causes the saw to move inthe op-

posite direction of the chain rotation.

Pinch-Kickbackddves the saw stndght

back toward the operator. Pull-Inpulls

the saw away from the operator.

REDUCE THE CHANCE OF

KICKBACK

•Recognizethat kic.Id__a_..canhappen.

With a basic understandingof kickbeck,

you can reducethe elementofsurprise

whichcontributesto accidents.

iNever let the movin_chain contact

any object at the tip of the guidebar.

Keep working area free from obstruc

tionssuch as other trees, branches,

rocks,fences, stumps, etc. Eliminate

or avoid any obstructionthat yoursaw

chain could hit while cutting.

•Keep saw chain sharp and properly

tensioned. A loose or dullchain can

increasethechance of kickback. Fol-

low manufacturer's chain sharpening

and maintenance instructions. Check

tension at regular intervals, but never

with engine running. Make sure bar

clamp nuts are securel.y.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

itip bar(plunge quts).

of the

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 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:

•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 ofthe saw

Thumb on \l

underside

Never reversehand positions

A good, firm grip on the saw with both

hands will help you maintain control.

Don't let go. Gdp the rear handle

your right hand whether you are right

or left handed. Wrap the fingers of

your left hand over and around the

front handlebar, and your left thumb

under the front handlebar. Keep your

left arm straight with the elbow locked.

•Position your left hand onthe front

handlebar so it is in a straight line with

your right hand on the rear handle

when making bucking cuts. Stand

slightly to the left side of the saw to

keep your body from being in-a 81ft_t

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 _ce 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 k'_kback; however, such fea-

tures will not totally eliminate this dan-

ger. Do not rely only on safety devices.

•Handguard: designed to reducethe

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 hen-

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

spread and =in-line" position of the

hands provided by th|s design work

together to give balance and resis-

tance in controlling the 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.

BEFORE STARTING ENGINE

WARNING: Be sure to read the fuel

handling information in the safety rules

section of this manual before you begin.

If you do not understand the fuel han-

dling information do not attempt to fuel

your unit. Seek help from someone that

does understand the information or call

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 fl. oz.).

For maximum guide bar and chain life,

we recommend you use Craftsman

chain sew bar oil. If Craftsman bar oil is

not available, you may use a good

grade SAE 30 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 iules

relating to fuel before fueling your unit.

IMPORTANT

Experience indicates that alcohol blended

fuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or,

methanol) can attract moisture which

leads to separation and formation of

acids during storage. Acidic gas can

damage the fuel system of an engine

while in storage.

To avoid engine problems, the fuel sys-

tem should be emplk3d before storage for

30 days or longer. Drain the gas tank,

start the engine and let it run until the fuel

lines and carburetor are empty.Use fresh

furl next season. See STORAGE instruc- "

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.

flooded. If engine still fails to start, re-

fer to the TROUBLESHOOTING chart or

call 1-800-235-5878.

OPERATING TIPS

•Check chain tension before first use

and after 1 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 it 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 p_o,:_si-

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 amajor 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 cutting.

•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.

TREE FELUNG TECHNIQUES

WARNING: Check for broken or dead

branches which san fall while cutting

causing serious injury.Do not cut near

buildingsor electrical wires if you do not

know the directionof tree fall, nor cutat

nightsince you will not be able to see

well, nor duringbad 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 afound_thetree so you can

have secure footing.

•Study the natural conffltionsthat can

cause the tree to fall in a particular

direction.These conditionsinclude:

•The wind directionand speed.

• The lean of the tree. The lean of a

tree might not be apparent due to

uneven or slopingterrain. Use a

plumb or level to determine the di-

rection of tree 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 did, stones, loose bark,

nails, staples, and wire from the tree

where cuts are to be made.

Plan a clear retreatpath

_--_ -O--_- Directionof 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

a felling cut is made on the opposite

side of tree, 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 cutting the top of

the notch first. Cut through 1/3 of the

diameter of the tree. Next complete

the notch by cuffing the bottom. See

illustration. Once the notch is cut, re-

move the wedge of wood from tree.

Finalcut here

First cut

Notch _ ...... r

Seconc Hinge

•After removing the wood, make the

felling 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 fell-

ing cut and the notch to form a hinge.

This hinge will help prevent the tree

from falling in the wrong direction.

Hinge holdstree on

controlfall

Closing

of notch

Opening of

fellingcut

NOTE: Before felling cut is complete,

use wedges to open the cut when

necessary to control the direction of fall.

To avoid Idckback 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 poorly 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 sew to cut down a partially

fallen tree.

CU'I-rlNG 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 log with your leg or foot.

•Do not cut in an area, where logs,

limbs, and-roots are tangled. Drag logs

into a clear area before cutting them.

BUCKING TECHNIQUES

WARNING: If sew becomes pinched

or hung in a log, don't try to force it out.

You can lose control of the sew result-

ing in injury and/or damage to the sew.

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 spdngpoles.

Springpoles are small size limbs

which can whip toward you, or pull

you off balance, Use extreme caution

when cutting 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.

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

The warranty on this unit does not cov-

er items that have been subjected to

operator abuse or negligence. To re-

calve 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

propedy 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

runbetter and last longer.

WARNING: Disconnectthe spark plug

before performing maintenance except

for carburetoradjustments.

CHECK CHA1N 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 wom guide

bar will damage the chain and make

cutting difficult. To maintain guide bar:

•Move On/Stop switch to =Stop."

•Remove bar and chain from saw.

•Clean all sawdust and any other

debris from thlP guide bar groove and

sprocket hole after each use.

Remove Sawdust From

the decal located on the chain saw.

CLEAN UNIT & LABELS

•Clean the unit using a damp cloth with

a mild detergent.

•Wipe off unit with a clean dry cloth.

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

oughly, reassemble.

CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT

WARNING: The chain will be moving

dudng most of this procedure. Wear

your protective equipment and observe

all safety precautions. Dudng 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 impropedy 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 carefufly set at

the factory. Adjustments may be neces-

sary if you notice any of the following

conditions:

•Chain moves at idle. See "Idle 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 pdmer 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.

•Turn the idle speed screw clockwise

until it stops; Now tum counterclcck-

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.

•Tum 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

dudng acceleration, turn mixture screw

clockwise in 1/16-turn increments until

performance jd 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 pedods while making ad-

justments. Damage to the engine can

occur. Make atest cut. Based on per-

formance of the saw while cutting, ad-

just the high speed mixture setting in

1/16-turn increments as follows:

•C_od_ee until _h_ goed power in

ti'_ cutwithno hssitation.Donct _ljust

scundorspesd, juc 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 _necessa_:

Acceleration Check

If the engine dies or hesitates instead of

accelerating, tum the low speed mixture

adjustment counterdockwiso urn] you

have smooth acceleretion _no chain

movement at idle. Recheck and adjust as

necessary for acceptable performance.

Prepare your unit for storage at the end

of the season or if it will not be used for

30 days or more.

WARNING:

•Allow the engine to cool, and secure

the unit before stodng or transporting.

•Store chain saw and fuel in a well

ventilated area where fuel vapors

cannot reach sparks or open flames

from water heaters, electric motors or

switches, fumaces, 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

guide bar.

•Oil the chain and wrap it in heavy pa-

per or cloth.

FUEL SYSTEM

Under Fueling Engine in the Operating

Section ofthis manual, see message

labeled IMPORTANTregardingthe use

of gasohol in your chain saw.

Fuel stabilizer is an acceptable altema-

tive in minimizing the formation of fuel

gum deposits during storage. Add stabi-

lizer to the gasoline in the fuel tank or

fuel storage container. Follow the mix

instructions found on stabilizer contain-

ers. Run engine at least 5 minutes after

adding stabilizer.
