Shut Off

Shutting Off the Motor
• Release the throttle trigger and leave the motor running slow.
• Set the switch into the OFF position (H).
• Allow the chain to stop before setting the chainsaw onto the ground.
• To gain an additional degree of safety set the chain brake (I) when
not using the chainsaw.
• If the chain has not stopped despite being in the OFF
position, pull the choke lever completely outwards (figure
D in page 12). Activate the chain brake to shut off the
motor. Go to a
Center to carry out repairs in the switch before using again
the chainsaw and prevent unsafe working conditions and
possible severe injuries.
CAUTION • Once the chainsaw is off release
pressure in the tanks. Loosen the caps of both the oil and
fuel tanks. Then tighten the caps back.
• Leave the motor cooling down before storing the unit.
Cutting Operation
Right Position for Cutting
• Both feet shall be supported on firm ground. Body
weight well balanced. The left foot shall be slightly
forward of the right foot.
• Hold the chainsaw as indicated in the Safety Warnings
for chainsaws' section (see page 5).
• Keep the left arm straight. Do not bend the elbow to
support in the event a kickback force sets.
• Always keep cutting axis on your right side, in order that
your body is away from the cutter axis in a
kickback situation.
• Hold the chainsaw close to the body to prevent tension
in arms and back.
• Do not try to hold the chainsaw left-handed.

Basic Cutting Procedures
If the user has no previous experience in the use of
chainsaws, practicing with small logs (not smaller than
7,9" diameter) is recommended. Support the log onto a
sawhorse to get familiar to using the saw. Follow the
following technique:
• Adopt the right position in front of the log with the
chainsaw running slow.
• Press the throttle trigger to make the motor reach its
maximum speed.
• Start the cut setting the chain bar onto the log.
• Keep the motor in its maximum speed at all times.
• Allow the cutting chain do its job applying slight
pressure downwards with the chainsaw. Do not try to
force the cut at any time, otherwise the chain, the bar or
the motor could get damaged.
• Release the throttle trigger as soon as finishing the cut.
This way the motor will run slow avoiding unnecessarily
wearing out the chain, bar or motor.
