Pull stroke and push stroke
You can cut through wood with the product in 2 different
positions.
•
To cut on the pull stroke is when you cut with the
bottom of the guide bar. The saw chain pulls through
the tree when you cut. In this position you have
better control of the product and the position of the
kickback zone.
•
To cut on the push stroke is when you cut with the
top of the guide bar. The saw chain pushes the
product in the direction of the operator.
WARNING: If the saw chain is caught in
the trunk, the product can be pushed at
you. Hold the product tightly and make
sure that the kickback zone of the guide
18
bar does not touch the tree and causes a
kickback.
To use the cutting technique
WARNING: Use full power when you cut and
decrease the speed to idle speed after each
cut.
CAUTION: Do not let the motor operate for
too long without load. This can cause
damage to the motor.
1. Put the trunk on a saw horse or runners.

WARNING: Cut pieces in the work area
increase the risk of kickback and that
you cannot keep your balance.
