SAFETY FEATURES
Numbers preceding the descriptions correspond with the numbers above to help you locate the safety feature.
2. LOW KICKBACK SAW CHAIN helps significantly reduce kickback, or the intensity of kickback, due to specially
designed depth gauges and guard links.
4. SPARK ARRESTER SCREEN retains carbon and other flammable particles over 0.023 inches (0.6mm) in size from
engine exhaust flow. Compliance with local, state and federal laws and/or regulations governing the use of a spark
arrester screen is the user's responsibility. See Safety Information for additional information.
5. CHAIN BRAKE LEVER / FRONT HAND GUARD helps protects the operator's left hand in the event it slips off the
front handle while the unit is running.
CHAIN BRAKE is designed to reduce the possibility of injury due to kickback by stopping a moving saw chain in
milliseconds. It is activated when pressure is applied to the chain brake lever, as in the event of the operator's hand
striking the lever during kickback.
10. STOP SWITCH immediately stops the engine when moved to the STOP position. The stop switch must be pushed
to the RUN position to start or restart the engine.
11. SAFETY LATCH prevents accidental acceleration of the engine. The throttle control trigger (20) cannot be squeezed
unless the safety latch is depressed.
20. CHAIN CATCHER reduces the danger of injury in the event the saw chain breaks or derails during operation. The
chain catcher is designed to intercept a whipping chain.
TOOLS REQUIRED:
• Damp Cloth
• Small Flathead Screwdriver
• Multi-purpose Tool (included)

UNPACKING
• Carefully remove the product and any accessories from the box.
• Inspect the product carefully to make sure no breakage or damage occurred during shipping.
• Do not discard the packing material until you have carefully inspected and satisfactorily operated the product.

WARNING:
performing maintenance on any part of the unit. Failure to do so can result in serious personal injury.
Refer to Starting and Stopping Instructions.
ADDING BAR AND CHAIN LUBRICANT
The guide bar and saw chain require lubrication to minimize friction.
Never starve the guide bar and chain of lubricating oil. Running the
unit without enough oil will decrease cutting efficiency, shorten the
life of the saw chain, cause rapid dulling of the saw chain and
excessive wear to the guide bar from overheating. An insufficient
amount of lubricating oil is evidenced by smoke, guide bar
7
discoloration or pitch build-up.

WARNING:
11
always filled. Failure to fill the bar lube reservoir will
cause irreparable damage to the unit.
Fill the bar lube reservoir each time the fuel tank is filled. Only use bar
and chain oil that is formulated to perform over a wide range of
temperatures with no diluting required in the bar lube reservoir. Do
17
not use motor oil or any other petroleum-based oil.
NOTE: This chain saw comes from the factory with the bar lube reservoir empty. Use the bottle of bar and chain oil that
is included with the unit.
NOTE: Always clean the bar lube reservoir cap and surrounding area before adding bar and chain lubricant. Use a
16
damp cloth. This helps prevent debris from entering the bar lube reservoir.
1. Remove the bar lube reservoir cap (Fig. 4).
14
2. Carefully pour the bar and chain oil into the bar lube reservoir.
3. Replace the bar lube reservoir cap and tighten securely.
4. Wipe off excess oil.
NOTE: Bar lube reservoirs are designed to keep oil slowly flowing onto the chain. This unit will use approximately one
tank of bar and chain oil for every tank of fuel. If the oil flow to the guide bar and chain is too much or too little,
refer to Adjusting the Automatic Oiler in the Maintenance and Repair Instructions section.
Guide Bar Tip
NOTE: Do not use dirty, used or otherwise contaminated oils. Damage may occur to the guide bar or chain.
IMPORTANT! Please dispose of oil properly. Consult your local waste authority for information regarding available
disposal options.
FUELING THE ENGINE
This unit is designed to operate on a mixture of unleaded gasoline
and 2-cycle engine oil. Refer to Oil and Fuel Information for complete
mixing instructions and detailed fuel requirements.
NOTE: Always clean the fuel tank cap and surrounding area before
fueling the unit. Use a damp cloth. This helps prevent debris
from entering the fuel tank.
1. Turn the unit on its side so that the fuel tank is facing up (Fig. 5).
2. Slowly unscrew and remove the fuel tank cap by turning it
counterclockwise.
3. Slowly pour the proper fuel/oil mixture into the fuel tank until the
tank is full.
4. Replace the fuel tank cap and turn it clockwise to secure it tightly.
5. Wipe off any spilled fuel.
TESTING THE CHAIN BRAKE
WARNING:
so slowly and deliberately. Keep the saw chain from
touching anything; don't let the saw tip forward.
Always test the chain brake before using the unit and periodically
during operation. Follow these instructions to make sure the chain
brake is working correctly:
1. Place the unit on a clear, firm and flat surface.
2. Pull the chain brake lever back to disengage the chain brake.
3. Start the unit. Refer to Starting and Stopping Instructions. Be sure
to maintain a proper grip. Refer to Proper Grip on Handles in the
Operating Instructions section.
4. While the unit is running, squeeze the throttle control trigger to 1/3 throttle and then engage the chain brake by
pushing the chain break lever forward with the left hand (Fig. 6).
The chain should stop moving abruptly. If it does, immediately release the throttle control trigger, turn off the engine and
return the chain brake to the disengaged position. Refer to Starting and Stopping Instructions.
If the chain does not stop when the chain brake is engaged, release the throttle control trigger, stop the engine and have
the unit serviced by an authorized service center.
WARNING:
speed, refer to the Carburetor Adjustment instructions in the Maintenance and Repair Instructions
section. Avoid contact with the muffler. A hot muffler can cause serious burns.
