BEFORE commencing the cut.
•
Never stand under a branch being cut.
2. Will the branch split before it is cut
through? (See Fig. Q1,Q2)
•
To prevent splitting, turn the JAWSAW
upsidedown and make a small cut (less
than 1/3 diameter of the limb) from the
underside.
•
Then turn the JAWSAW
normal position and cut from top down,
slightly further out from the trunk than the
initial undercut.
3. Is the branch under tension, will it spring
suddenly or trap the saw when it is cut?
•
Always stand outside the path of a
springy branch. It can strike suddenly with
surprising force and cause injury or loss of
control of the saw.
•
Always cut from the tension side of a
branch, usually the top of a branch on a
standing tree, but can be any side of the
branch of a fallen tree.
•
If the cut starts to close on the saw, you
are cutting from the wrong side, keep the
saw running and pull the saw to retract the
blade from the cut.
•
If the saw becomes trapped do not try
to pull it out with excessive force, lift the
18

branch to open the cut while an assistant
removes the saw.
kickback safety
This saws chain is covered by a guard
however, kickback can still occur. The
following steps will reduce the risk of kickback
•
Use both hands to grip saw while saw is
running. Use firm grip. Thumbs and fingers
must wrap around saw handles.
•
Keep all safety items in place on saw.
Make sure they work properly.
•
Do not overreach.
•
Keep solid footing and balance at all times.
•
Stand slightly to right side of saw.This
keeps your body from being in direct line
with Saw Chain.
•
Do not let guide bar nose touch anything
when Saw Chain is moving.
•
Do not bury Guide Bar nose or try to
plunge cut (boring into wood using bar
nose).

Watch for shifting of wood or other forces
that may pinch Saw Chain.
•
Use extreme caution when reentering a
previous cut.
•
Never use a dull or loose Saw Chain. Keep
Saw Chain sharp with proper tension.
PRoPERLy uSiNg THE JawSaw
Use the JAWSAW
only with secure footing.
®
Hold the JAWSAW
at the right-hand side of
®
your body. (See Fig. R)
The Saw Chain must be running at full speed
before it makes contact with the wood. Use
the metal Jaw Teeth (6) to secure the saw onto
the wood before starting to cut. (See Fig.S)
Do not operate the JAWSAW
extended or attempt to saw areas which are
difficult to reach, or on a ladder. (See Fig. T)
Cutting wood under tension (See Fig. u)
waRNiNg: when cutting a limb
that is under tension, use extreme
caution. Be alert for wood springing
back. when wood tension is released,
the limb could spring back and strike
operator causing severe injury or death.
When sawing logs supported on both ends,
start the cut from above(Y) about 1/3 of the
diameter into the log and then finish the cut
(Z) from below, in order to avoid contact of
the JAWSAW
with the ground. When sawing
®
logs supported on only one end, start the cut
from below (Y) about 1/3 of the diameter into
the log and finish the cut from above (Z) in
order to avoid log splitting or jamming of the
tool.
LiMBiNg a TREE (See Fig. v)
Limbing is removing the branches from a
fallen tree. When limbing leave larger lower
limbs to support the log off the ground.
Remove the small limbs in one cut as
illustrated. Branches under tension against
the ground should be cut from the bottom up
to avoid binding the JAWSAW
Bucking a log (See Fig. w)
Bucking is cutting a log into lengths. It is
important to make sure your footing is firm and
your weight is evenly distributed on both feet.
Follow the simple directions for easy cutting.
