Ensure that material to be cut does not contain any form of foreign
objects. Only use this chainsaw to cut wood. Be sure that it is safe to cut
before beginning a job.
• Always wear appropriate safety equipment. Use of this tool requires the
use of gloves, eye / face protection, dust mask, ear defenders, hard hat,
and sturdy clothing.
• If the chainsaw becomes jammed, switch off immediately. Allow the
engine to come to a complete stop before attempting to clear jammed
material.
• Do not use this product in wet conditions. Ensure that material to be cut
is dry before starting work.
• Always keep cutting blade properly lubricated, keep covered when not in
use.
• Always carry the chainsaw by its front handle, with the blade pointing
backwards, away from your body.
• Be prepared for the possibility of kickback. Under some circumstances,
if used incorrectly, the chainsaw may be thrown back towards the user.
Proper use, and proper maintenance will significantly reduce the chance
of kickback occurring.
• Never pass arms or legs below the blade when cutting. Always stand
back from the cutting area, in a stable position.
• Check that other people are a safe distance away from you work area
before starting to cut. If tree felling, all other people should be a minimum
distance equal to twice the height of the tree away. Never allow children
or pets near to the work area.
• Be aware that some wood dust is toxic. This is especially likely if you are
cutting wood treaded with stains, or preservatives. If you are unsure of
what treatments your wood may have had, do not cut.
• If you intend to fell a tree, always plan an escape route before cutting.
Ensure that there is a clear space behind you, at least twice as far as the
tree is tall. The escape route should be clear of all obstructions that could
cause you to trip.
• Do not work alone. Always ensure that there is someone nearby to help
in an emergency.

or alcohol.

Unpacking and Assembling Your
Chainsaw
Ensure that all parts of your chainsaw are present and in good condition.
If any part is missing, or damaged, have such parts replaced before
attempting to use this tool.
Fitting chain / cutting blade
• To fit the chain (1) and cutting bar (2), first remove the cover plate on
the right hand side of the machine by removing the drive sprocket cover
bolts (13).
• Place the cutting bar over the threaded rods and under the clutch
assembly.
• Position the saw chain around the cutting bar (2), and drive sprocket.
Ensure that the chain is fitted the correct way round; the teeth on the top
of the blade should face forward.
• Replace the cover plate, whilst aligning the tensioning peg. Do not fully
tighten.
• Use a screwdriver to turn the tension screw (12), remove most of the
slack out of the chain.

Before Use

Checking chain tension
• Rotate the tension screw (12) clockwise, until there is only approx 5mm
of slack when the chain is pulled vertically from the centre of the cutting
bar.
• Fully tighten cover plate and recheck chain tension.
NOTE: Chain tension should be checked regularly. The chain will stretch as
it is used. An excessively loose chain may derail, an excessively tight chain
will wear quickly and could break.
Filling chain oil reservoir
• This machine is equipped with a chain oil reservoir. Oil is automatically
fed onto the chain as the saw is used. Using the saw without oil, or with
the incorrect oil, will cause rapid wear and could lead to chain breakage.
