4. Wipe off any excessive oil and replace the cap.

STARTING/STOPPING THE CHAIN SAW
NOTICE:
Before starting the chain saw, check for the oil
level, saw teeth sharpness and properly-working kickback
brake handle. Besides, balanced footing and proper
distance away from the ground are needed.
To Start
1. Pull the chain kickback brake handle towards the
front handle to the operating position (Fig. G).
2. Grasp the front and rear handles firmly, using
both hands.
3. Press down the lock-off button first, then squeeze
the trigger switch to start (Fig. Q). Release the lock-
off button and continue to squeeze the trigger for
continued operation.
WARNING:
Do not attempt to start the saw when the
saw chain is in a cut.
To Stop
1. Release the trigger switch.
2. Push the chain kickback brake handle forward to the
brake position to engage the chain brake (Fig. G).
WARNING:
Always remove the battery pack from the
chain saw during work breaks and after finishing work.
Proper Grip On Handles (Fig. E)
◾
Wear non-slip gloves for maximum grip and protection.
◾
With the saw on a firm, flat surface, hold the saw
firmly with both hands.
◾
Always grasp the front handle with the left hand and
the rear handle with the right.
◾
The fingers should encircle the handle, with the
thumb wrapped under the front handle.
56 VOLT LITHIUM-ION CORDLESS CHAIN SAW — CS1400E/CS1600E
WARNING:
Never use a left-handed (cross-handed)
grip, or any stance which would place your body or arm
across the chain line (Fig. R).
Proper Cutting Stance (Fig. S)
◾
Both feet should be on solid ground, with weight evenly
spread between them.
◾
The left arm should be straight, with the elbow locked.
This helps to withstand the forces generated by
kickback.
◾
Your body should always be to the left of the chain line.
INSTRUCTIONS CONCERNING THE PROPER
TECHNIQUES FOR BASIC FELLING, LIMBING, AND
CROSS-CUTTING
WARNING:
Always be sure of your footing and hold the
chain saw firmly with both hands while the motor is running.
WARNING:
When the saw chain is stopped due
to pinching during cutting, release the trigger switch;
remove the saw chain and guide bar from the wood, then
restart the chain saw.
WARNING:
Do not pull the saw chain with hand
when it is bound by the sawdust. Serious injury could
result if the chain saw starts accidentally. Press the saw
chain against the wood, move the chain saw back and
forth to discharge the debris. Always remove the battery
pack before cleaning. Wear heavy protective gloves when
handling the saw chain.
WARNING:
Never start the chain saw when it is in
contact with the wood. Always allow the chain saw reach
full speed before applying the saw to the wood.
Felling a tree
◾
When bucking and felling operations are being
performed by two or more persons at the same time,
the felling operation should be separated from the
bucking operation by a distance of at least twice the
height of the tree being felled. Trees should not be
felled in a manner that would endanger any person,
strike any utility line or cause any property damage.
If the tree does make contact with any utility line, the
utility company should be notified immediately.
◾
The chain saw operator should stand on the uphill
side of the terrain, as the tree is likely to roll or slide
downhill after it is felled.
◾
An escape path should be planned and cleared as
necessary before cuts are started. The escape path
should extend back and diagonally to the rear of the
expected line of fall as Fig. T shown.
