•face or dust mask (if working in dusty
areas)
10. Before cutting, always provide the fol-
lowing:
•clear work area
•secure footing
•planned retreat path from falling tree
11. Inspect tree before cutting down. Make
sure there are no dead limbs or branches
that may fall on you.
12. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this
saw has a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other). This plug will fit
in a polarized outlet only one way. If
the plug does not fit fully in the outlet
of your extension cord, reverse the plug.
If it still does not fit, a polarized exten-
sion cord will be necessary. Do not
change the plug in any way.
WHILE OPERATING SAW
1. Stay alert. Use common sense while
operating chain saw.
2. Keep work area clean. Cluttered areas
invite injuries.
3. Be aware of extension cord while op-
erating chain saw. Be careful not to trip
over cord. Keep cord away from chain
and operator at all times.
4. Keep children, animals, and bystand-
ers away from chain saw and extension
cord. Only chain saw user should be in
work area.
5. Do not cut down a tree unless you are
trained or have expert help.
6. If two or more persons perform buck-
ing and felling operations at the same
time, provide plenty of distance between
operations. Provide distance of at least
twice the height of tree being felled.
7. Secure wood you are cutting by using
clamps or chocks.
8. Grip chain saw firmly with both hands.
Never operate chain saw with one hand.
Never use hand guard as handle.
9. Keep finger off trigger until ready to
make cut.
10. Before starting chain saw, make sure

body contact with grounded objects
such as pipes, fences, and metal posts.
12. Keep all parts of body away from chain
when saw is running.
13. Do not force chain saw while cutting.
Apply light pressure. It will do the job
better and safer at the rate for which it
was intended.
14. Cut small brush and saplings with ex-
treme care. Slender material may catch
in chain and be whipped toward you.
This could also pull you off balance.
15. When cutting limb or tree trunk that is
under tension, use extreme caution. Be
alert for wood springing back. When
wood tension is released, limb could
spring back and strike operator caus-
ing severe injury or death.
16. Carry chain saw from one place to an-
other
•with saw stopped and unplugged
•by holding front handle (never use
hand guard as handle)
•with finger off trigger
•with guide bar and chain to rear
WARNING: Some dust created
by power sanding, sawing, grind-
ing, drilling, and other construc-
tion activities contains chemicals
known (to the state of California) to
cause cancer, birth defects, or
other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:
•lead from lead-based paints
•crystalline silica from bricks
and cement and other masonry
products
•arsenic and chromium from
chemically-treated lumber
Your risk from these exposures
varies, depending on how often
you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals:
work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equip-
ment, such as those dust masks
that are specially designed to filter
out microscopic particles.

•in a carrying case or with scabbard
over guide bar
Keep this manual for reference. It is your
guide to safe and proper operation of this
chain saw.
•Never try cutting through two logs at
same time. Only cut one log at a time.
•Do not bury guide bar nose or try plunge
cut (boring into wood using guide bar
nose).
•Watch for shifting of wood or other
forces that may pinch chain.
•Use extreme caution when reentering a
previous cut.
•Use low-kickback chain and guide bar
supplied with this chain saw. Only re-
place these parts with chains and guide
bars listed in this manual.
•Never use dull or loose chain. Keep chain
sharp with proper tension.
•Do not hand sharpen chain on automatic
chain sharpening (Fast Sharp) models.
Saw Maintenance and Kickback
Safety
Follow maintenance instructions in this
manual. Proper cleaning of saw and chain
and guide bar maintenance can reduce
chances of kickback. Inspect and maintain
saw after each use. This will increase the
service life of your saw.
Note:
Even with
proper sharpening, risk of kickback can
increase with each sharpening.
WARNING: Kickback may oc-
cur when the nose or tip of the
guide bar touches an object, or
when the wood closes in and
pinches the saw chain in the cut.
Tip contact in some cases may
cause a lightning fast reverse re-
action, kicking the guide bar up
and back towards the operator.
Pinching the saw chain along the
top of the guide bar may push the
guide bar rapidly back towards
the operator. Either of these re-
actions may cause you to lose
control of the saw which could
result in serious injury to user.

squeeze trigger (see Figure 9). This will
turn saw on. Releasing trigger will turn
saw off. Make sure saw is running at
full speed before starting a cut.
6. When starting a cut, place moving
chain against wood. Hold saw firmly
in place to avoid possible bouncing or
skating (sideways movement) of saw.
7. Guide saw using light pressure. Do not
force saw. The motor will overload and
can burn out. It will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was
intended.
8. Remove saw from a cut with saw run-
ning at full speed. Stop saw by releas-
ing trigger. Make sure chain has
stopped before setting saw down.

(see Figure 11). This uncut por-
tion acts as a hinge. The hinge
helps keep tree from twisting and
falling in wrong direction.
WARNING: Be alert for falling
overhead limbs. Watch your foot-
ing while exiting area.
Felling is the process of cutting down a tree.
Make sure your footing is firm. Keep feet
apart. Divide your weight evenly on both
feet. Follow directions below to fell a tree.
Before Felling a Tree
1. Before felling, inspect tree. Make sure
there are no dead limbs or branches that
may fall on you. Study natural lean of
tree, location of larger branches, and
wind direction. This will help you judge
which way tree will fall.
2. Clear work area around tree.
3. Plan and clear a retreat path before fell-
ing. Make retreat path opposite to
planned direction of fall of tree and at
45° angle (see Figure 10).
4. Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails,
staples, and wire from tree where you
will make felling cuts.
5. Stay on uphill side when felling tree.
Tree could roll or slide downhill af-
ter falling.
WARNING:
•Avoid kickback. Kickback can
result in severe injury or death.
See
Kickback,
page 3 to avoid
risk of kickback.
•Do not fell a tree without ample
skill or expert help.
•Keep children, animals, and
bystanders away from area
when felling a tree.
•If two or more persons perform
bucking and felling operations
WARNING: When felling a
tree, be aware of your surround-
ings. Do not endanger any per-
son, strike utility lines, or cause
property damage. If tree strikes
utility lines, contact utility com-
pany at once.

FELLING A TREE
(Cutting Down a Tree)
Felling Procedure
A) Felling Notch
A properly placed felling notch will deter-
mine direction tree will fall. Place felling
notch on side of tree in direction you want
tree to fall (see Figure 11). Follow direc-
tions below to create a felling notch.
1. Make lower notch cut as close to
ground as possible. Hold saw so guide
bar is horizontal. Cut 1/3 the diameter
of tree trunk (see Figure 11).
Note:
Al-
ways make this horizontal lower notch
cut first. If you make this cut second,
tree can pinch chain or guide bar.
2. Start upper notch cut the same distance
above first cut as first cut is deep.
Example: If lower notch cut is eight
inches deep, start upper notch cut eight
inches above it. Cut downward at 45°
angle. The upper notch cut should meet
end of lower notch cut (see Figure 11).
3. Remove tree trunk wedge created by
notching cuts.
B) Felling Cut
1. Make felling cut two inches higher than
lower notch cut and on opposite side
of tree (see Figure 11). Keep felling cut
parallel to lower notch cut.
2. Cut towards notch.
3. As felling cut nears hinge, tree should
begin to fall.
Note:
If needed, drive
wedges into felling cut to control direc-
tion of fall. If tree settles back and pinches
chain, drive wedges into felling cut to
remove saw. Only use wedges made of
wood, plastic, or aluminum. Never use
wedge made of steel. This could cause
kickback and damage to chain.
4. When tree begins to fall, quickly
•remove saw from felling cut
•release trigger to turn saw off
•put saw down
• exit area using retreat path

Limbing is removing branches from a fallen
tree. Make sure your footing is firm. Keep
feet apart. Divide your weight evenly on
both feet. Do not remove larger limbs under
tree that support log off ground. Remove
each limb with one cut (see Figure 12).
Clear cut limbs from work area often. This
will help maintain a safe work area.
Make sure you start your cut where limb
will not pinch saw during cutting. To avoid
pinching, start cut on freely hanging limbs
from above limb. Start cut on limbs under
tension from under limb. If pinch occurs,
turn saw off, lift limb, and remove saw.

Trimming a tree is the process of cutting
limbs from a living tree. Make sure your
footing is firm. Keep feet apart. Divide your
weight evenly on both feet. Follow direc-
tions below to trim a tree.
1. Make first cut six inches from tree trunk
on underside of limb. Use top of guide
bar to make this cut. Cut 1/3 through
diameter of limb (see Figure 16).
2. Move two to four inches farther out on
limb. Make second cut from above limb.
Continue cut until you cut limb off.
3. Make third cut as close to tree trunk as
possible on underside of limb stub. Use
top of guide bar to make this cut. Cut
1/3 through diameter of stub.
4. Make fourth cut directly above third
cut. Cut down to meet third cut. This
will remove limb stub.

NOTICE: Below are instructions
for servicing your chain saw. Any
servicing not mentioned below
should be done by an authorized
service center.
WARNING: Unplug chain saw
from power source before servic-
ing. Severe injury or death could
occur from electrical shock or
body contact with moving chain.
WARNING: Cutting edges on
chain are sharp. Use protective
gloves when handling chain.
WARNING: When cleaning
saw body,
•do not submerge saw in any
liquids
•do not use products that con-
tain ammonia, chlorine, or
abrasives
•do not use chlorinated clean-
ing solvents, carbon tetrachlo-
ride, kerosene, or gasoline
CARE OF GUIDE BAR
Uneven bar wear causes most guide bar
problems. Incorrect sharpening of chain
cutter and depth gauge settings often cause
this. When bar wears unevenly, it widens
guide bar groove (see Figure 17). This causes
chain clatter and rivet popping. Saw will not
cut straight. Replace guide bar if this occurs.
Inspect guide bar before sharpening chain.
A worn or damaged guide bar is unsafe. A
worn or damaged guide bar will damage
chain. It will also make cutting harder.
Keep saw body clean. Use a soft cloth damp-
ened with a mild soap and water mixture.
Wipe saw body to clean.

SHARPENING SAW CHAIN
Keep chain sharp. Your saw will cut faster
and more safely. A dull chain will cause
undue sprocket, guide bar, chain, and motor
wear. If you must force chain into wood and
cutting creates only sawdust with few large
chips, chain is dull.
Items Needed to Sharpen Chain
Purchase these items from your local dealer,
hardware store, or chain saw supplies outlet.
•5/32" round file
•Depth gauge tool
•File guide
•Vise
•Medium sized flat file

Sharpening Cutters
Use file guide for 30° filing.
1. Adjust chain for proper tension (see Saw
Chain Tension Adjustment, page 7).
2. Clamp guide bar in vise to hold saw
steady.
Note:
Do not clamp chain.
3. Press 5/32" round file (attached to file
guide) into groove between top plate
and depth gauge on chain. File guide
should rest on both top plate and depth
gauge (see Figures 19 and 20).
Note:
File at midpoint of guide bar.
4. Hold file guide level. Make sure 30°
mark on file guide is parallel to center
of guide bar (see Figure 19). This will
insure that you file cutters at 30° angle.
5. File from inside towards outside of cut-
ter until sharp. Only file in this one direc-
tion (see Figure 19).
Note:
Two or three
strokes with file should sharpen cutter.
6. After each cutter is sharpened, move
chain forward to sharpen next cutter.
File all cutters on one side of chain.
7. Move to other side of chain and repeat
process.

Filing Cutter Depth Gauges
The cutter depth gauge clearance is reduced
as cutters are sharpened. After every second
or third sharpening, reset cutter depth gauges.
1. Place depth gauge tool (.025") firmly
across top of two cutters. Make sure
depth gauge enters slot in depth gauge
tool (see Figure 21).
2. Use medium flat file. File depth gauge
level with depth gauge tool.
3. Remove depth gauge tool. With flat file,
round off front corner of cutter depth
gauge (see Figure 22).
After several hand filings, have authorized
service center or sharpening service machine
sharpen chain. This will insure even filing.

ELECTRIC CHAIN SAW LIMITED WARRANTY
Always specify model and serial numbers when writing the factory.
We reserve the right to amend these specifications at any time without notice. The only warranty applicable is our standard written warranty. We
make no other warranty, expressed or implied.
DESA Specialty Products™ warrants this electric chain saw and any parts thereof, to be free from defects in material and workmanship for one
year (90 days for reconditioned unit) from the date of first purchase from an authorized dealer, provided that the product has been properly
maintained and operated in accordance with all applicable instructions. The bill of sales or proof of purchase must be presented at the time a claim
is made under this warranty.
This warranty is extended only to the original retail purchaser. This warranty covers only the parts and labor required to restore this chain saw
to its proper operating condition. Warranty parts must be obtained through factory authorized dealers and service centers for this product. These
dealers and service centers will provide original factory replacement parts. Failure to use original factory replacement parts voids this warranty.
This warranty does not cover commercial, industrial, or rental usage, nor does it apply to parts that are not in original condition because of normal
wear and tear, or parts that fail or become damaged as a result of misuse, accident, lack of proper maintenance, tampering, or alteration. Travel,
handling, transportation, and incidental costs associated with warranty repairs are not reimbursable under this warranty and are the responsibility
of the owner.
To the full extent allowed by the law of the jurisdiction that governs the sale of the product, this express warranty excludes any and all other
expressed warranties and limits the duration of any and all implied warranties, including warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular
purpose to one year form the date of first purchase, and DESA Specialty Products’™ liability is hereby limited to the purchase price of the product
and DESA Specialty Products™ shall not be liable for any other damages whatsoever including indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.
Some states do not allow limitation of how long an implied warranty lasts or an exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages,
so the above limitation of damages may not apply to you.
This warranty provides the original purchaser with specific rights. For information regarding those rights, please consult the applicable state laws.
