(b) Handle held too high. Dulls quickly and will not cut smoothly. Backslope (a) File too large. —2J (b) Handle held too low. Cuts slowly and requires extra pressure. Depth Gauges j£=v-'/X Not filed down, too high Cuts slowly, requires extra pressure and leads to cutter damage. Depth Gauges too low. ^>3=^Too much filinq. (o^^o) y Rough cutting, requires more power (cuts too deep) 13 The delivery of oil to the bar and'chain is preset at the factory, and for normal use is unlikely to need altering. If adjustment is required, the regulator is located in the bar mounting pad (FIG. 22). Turn the screw in 14 turn steps, clockwise to decrease or counterclockwise to increase the oil flow. Ensure adequate supply of oil to the bar and chain by cleaning accumulated sawdust from oilways in bar and bar mounting pad after use. (FIG. 21) 12 PERSONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FATIGUE, DRUGS AND ALCOHOL. Do not operate chain saw when fatigued or under the influence of drugs or alcohol. USE A SAFETY HARD HAT when working with branches overhead. USE HEARING PROTECTION DISCONNECT CHAIN SAW WHEN IDLE, and before adjusting or servicing the bar and chain. REMOVE TOOLS. Check that all hand tools have been removed before using saw. AVOID UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make a habit of keeping your finger off the trigger untiJ you are ready to start a cut. CARRY THE CHAIN SAW BY THE FRONT HANDLE, with finger off the trigger and the bar and chain pointed to the rear. KEEP CLEAR. Keep all parts of your body away from the saw chain wheneverthesaw is connected to power. BEFORE STARTING THE SAW ensure the saw chain is not touching anything. SAW IN GOOD CONDITION. Never use a chain saw that is damaged, improperly adjusted or not completely assembled. Be certain that saw chain stops moving when trigger is released. STORE IDLE SAW. Chain Saw should be stored in a carrying case or with a scabbard over the saw chain, locked up in a high place out of reach of children. SAWING PRECAUTIONS USE BOTH HANDS. When the motor is running always hold the chain saw with both hands, keeping the left arm as straight as possible. Grip firmly, with thumbs and fingers encircling the handles. (FIG. 4) Never hold log with one hand whilesawing, if necessary clamp the log to free both hands to hold the chain saw. CLEAN HANDLES. Keep handles dry and oil free. NOT ALOFT. Do not operate a chain saw in a tree unless specifically trained to do so. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Never run chain saw while standing on an unstable surface. MAINTAIN CHAIN SAW. Keep saw chain sharp, oiled and properly tensioned for safest operation. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. For information about chain brake see pages 9, 10, & 11. DON’T FORCE THE CHAIN SAW TO CUT. It will do the job better and more safely at the rate for which it was designed. USE RIGHT TOOL. Never cut plastics, sheet metal or any non-wood substance. Don’t force a small chain saw to do the job of a heavy duty saw. CUT AT FULL SPEED ONLY. Always have chain moving at full speed before touching the wood an.d starting to cut. A slow moving chain will catch in the wood and may pull you off balance. SPRINGY SAPLINGS. Use extreme caution when cutting small saplings, branches or brush, because the whippy material tends to catch the saw chain and pull or throw the saw. WATCH FOR SPRING BACK when sawing a limb under tension, so that you will not be struck when the tension in the limb is released. GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK. Kickback is the fast upward motion of the guide bar which occurs when thesawchain at the noseof theguide bar contacts an object (FIG. 3). Kickback can cause dangerous loss of control of the chain saw. 5 TO AVOID KICKBACK • Hold the chain saw firmly with both hands, • Don’t overreach. • Prevent the nose of the guide bar (FIG, 5) from contacting a log, branch, ground or other obstruction, • Don’t cut above shoulder height. • Keep saw chain sharp and in proper adjustment. • Follow instructions for lubrication and guide bar maintenance. • Do not use chain saw without all safety features functioning. • When bucking (cutting as illustrated in FIG. 5 & 7) always grip front handle directly behind the chain brake hand guard lever - see FIG. 4 KICKBACK CUTTING AREA PRECAUTIONS KEEP AREA CLEAR. Cluttered work areas invite injuries. KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. Do not permit onlookers in the work area or to contact the extension cord. DON’T START CUTTING UNTIL YOU HAVE A CLEAR WORK AREA, secure footing and a planned retreat path from the falling tree (FIG.6). AVOID SNAGS. Keep extension cord away from saw chain, and clear of branches and the like while cutting. STAND ON UPHILL SIDE when bucking a log or felling atreesothat sections will roll or slide away from you. (FIG. 7) KEEP FEET CLEAR when cutting logs suspended off the ground. AVOID POWER LINES. Do not fell a tree that has power or telephone lines running through it or close by. S...
