CAUTION: A new saw chain stretches, requiring
adjustment after as few as 5 cuts. This is normal
with a new chain, and the interval between future
adjustments will lengthen quickly.

CAUTION: If saw chain is TOO LOOSE or TOO
TIGHT, the sprocket, bar, chain, and crankshaft
bearings will wear more rapidly. Study Fig. 6 for
information concerning correct cold tension (A),
correct warm tension (B), and as a guide for
when saw chain needs adjustment (C).

• CHAIN BRAKE MECHANICAL TEST
Your chain saw is equipped with a Chain brake that
reduces possibility of injury due to kickback. The brake is
activated if pressure is applied against brake lever when,
as in the event of kickback, operator's hand strikes the
lever. When the brake is actuated, chain movement stops
abruptly.
WARNING: The purpose of the chain brake is to
reduce the possibility of injury due to kickback;
however, it cannot provide the intended measure
of protection if the saw is operated carelessly.
Always test the chain brake before using your
saw and periodically while on the job.
TO TEST CHAIN BRAKE:
1. The Chain brake is DISENGAGED (chain can move)
when BRAKE LEVER IS PULLED BACK AND
LOCKED (Fig. 7A).
2. The Chain brake is ENGAGED (chain is stopped)
when brake lever is in forward position. You should
not be able to move chain (Fig. 7B).
NOTE: The brake lever should snap into both positions. If
strong resistance is felt, or lever does not move into
either position, do not use your saw. Take it immediately
to a professional Service Center for repair.

FUEL AND LUBRICATION
• FUEL
Use regular grade unleaded gasoline mixed with Talon
40:1 custom 2-cycle engine oil for best results. Use
mixing ratios in Section FUEL MIXING TABLE.
WARNING: Never use straight gasoline in your
unit. This will cause permanent engine damage
and void the manufacturer's warranty for that
product. Never use a fuel mixture that has been
stored for over 90 days.
WARNING: If 2-cycle lubricant other than Talon
Custom Lubricant is to be used, it must be a
premium grade oil for 2-cycle air cooled engines
mixed at a 40:1 ratio. Do not use any 2-cycle oil
product with a recommended mixing ratio of
100:1. If insufficient lubrication is the cause of
engine damage, it voids the manufacturer's
engine warranty for that occurrence.
• MIXING FUEL
Mix fuel with Talon brand 2 cycle oil in an approved
container.
Shake container to ensure thorough mix.
WARNING: Lack of lubrication voids engine
warranty.
• FUEL AND LUBRICATION
Gasoline and Oil Mix 40:1 Oil Only
• RECOMMENDED FUELS
Some conventional gasolines are being blended with
oxygenates such as alcohol or an ether compound to
meet clean air standards. Your Talon engine is designed
to operate satisfactorily on any gasoline intended for
automotive use including oxygenated gasolines.
• CHAIN AND BAR LUBRICATION
Always refill the chain oil tank each time the fuel tank is
refilled. We recommend using Talon Chain, Bar and
Sprocket Oil, which contains additives to reduce friction
and wear and to assist in the prevention of pitch
formation on the bar and chain.
