WARNING:
chain properly installed.
STARTING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Fill the oil tank with correct chain and bar oil (Fig. 3).
Use a funnel, wipe up any spills and make sure no dirt
gets into the tank.
NOTE: The saw chain requires lubrication when in use to
minimize friction with the guide bar. The oil tank
holds 4.5 ozs of oil, enough to lubricate the chain
for 12-15 minutes of sawing. We recommend
using original equipment manufacturer Bar and
Sprocket Oil, which contains additives to reduce
friction wear and reduce resin residue formations.
CAUTION:
checked during operation to avoid starving
the bar and chain of lubrication.
NOTE: Your chain saw is equipped with an Automatic
Oiler system and is the ONLY source of
lubrication for the bar and chain.
2. Be certain the Chain Brake® is disengaged before
starting unit (Fig. 4). Disengage it by pulling backward
toward the motor.
3. Hook the extension cord to the extension cord retainer
(A) (Fig. 5) that is built into the rear handle. This will
prevent the cord from pulling out of the handle. Double
the extension cord, about a foot from the end, and
insert it through the hole at the end of the handle.
Hook the loop formed by doubling the cord over the
tab. Gently tug on the cord to ensure that it is firmly
retained in the saws handle. Plug the receptacle end of
the extension cord into the tool's power supply cord.
WARNING:
size and type for your saw.
4. Grip the saw with both hands, left hand holding the
front /handle (DO NOT HOLD CHAIN BRAKE®) and
the right hand holding the rear handle. Thumbs and
fingers should encircle both handles (Fig. 6).
WARNING:
not come in contact with the guide bar and
saw chain.
5. With your right thumb, depress the LOCK/OFF button
(C) on the top of the rear handle, and at the same
time squeeze the trigger. To stop the saw, release the
trigger (Fig. 7).
NOTE: It is not necessary to maintain pressure on the
LOCK/OFF button once the trigger is squeezed
and the motor is running. The LOCK/OFF button
is a safety device to avoid accidental starting.
STOPPING INSTRUCTIONS
The saw motor will automatically stop when the trigger is
released. To restart the motor, you will have to depress
the LOCK/OFF button and squeeze the trigger.
