2. Make second cut on underside of log, directly under first cut. Use top of guide bar to make this cut. Cut up to meet first cut. This will keep log from pinching guide bar and chain. TRIMMING A TREE (PRUNING) WARNING: Avoid kickback. Kick- back can result in severe injury or death. See Kickback, page 3, to avoid risk of kickback. WARNING: • If on slope, make sure log will not roll down hill. Secure log by using wooden stakes. Drive wooden stakes into ground on downhill side of log. Stand on uphill side of log while cutting. Log may roll after cutting. • Never try cutting through two logs at same time. This could increase the risk of kickback. • While cutting log, never hold log with your hand, leg, or foot. • While cutting log, never allow another person to hold log. • Turn off and unplug saw before mov- ing from one place to another. WARNING: Avoid kickback. Kickback can result in severe injury or death. See Kickback, page 3, to avoid risk of kickback. WARNING: Do not operate chain saw while • in a tree • on a ladder or any other unstable surface • in any awkward position You may lose control of saw causing severe injury. WARNING: Do not cut limbs higher than your shoulders. CAUTION: Seek professional help if facing conditions beyond your ability. Continued 107705 19 OPERATING CHAIN SAW Continued Trimming a tree is the process of cutting limbs from a living tree. Make sure your footing is firm. Keep feet apart. Divide your weight evenly on both feet. Follow directions below to trim a tree. 1. Make first cut six inches from tree trunk on underside of limb. Use top of guide bar to make this cut. Cut 1/3 through diameter of limb (see Figure 18). 2. Move two to four inches farther out on limb. Make second cut from above limb. Continue cut until you cut limb off. 3. Make third cut as close to tree trunk as possible on underside of limb stub. Use top of guide bar to make this cut. Cut 1/3 through diameter of stub. 4. Make fourth cut directly above third cut. Cut down to meet third cut. This will remove limb stub. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE NOTICE: Below are instructions for servicing your chain saw. Any servicing not mentioned below should be done by an authorized service center. CLEANING SAW BODY WARNING: Unplug chain saw from power source before servicing. Severe injury or death could occur from electrical shock or body contact with moving chain. WARNING: Cutting edges on chain are sharp. Use protective gloves when handling chain. WARNING: When cleaning saw body, • do not submerge saw in any liquids • do not use products that contain ammonia, chlorine, or abrasives • do not use chlorinated cleaning solvents, carbon tetrachloride, kerosene, or gasoline Keep saw body clean. Use a soft cloth dampened with a mild soap and water mixture. Wipe saw body to clean. CARE OF GUIDE BAR Uneven bar wear causes most guide bar problems. Incorrect sharpening of chain cutter and depth gauge settings often cause this. When bar wears unevenly, it widens guide bar groove (see Figure 19). This causes chain clatter and rivet popping. Saw will not cut straight. Replace guide bar if this occurs. Inspect guide bar before sharpening chain. A worn or damaged guide bar is unsafe. A worn or damaged guide bar will damage chain. It will also make cutting harder. Normal Guide Bar Maintenance 1. Remove guide bar from chain saw. 2. Remove sawdust from guide bar groove periodically. Use putty knife or wire (see Figure 20). 3. Clean oil slots after each day of use. 4. Remove burrs from sides of guide bar. Use flat file to make side edges square. Replace guide bar when • bar is bent or cracked • inside groove of bar is badly worn Note: When replacing guide bar, see Replacement Parts and Accessories, page 21, for proper bar. SHARPENING SAW CHAIN WARNING: Unplug chain saw from power source before servicing. Severe injury or death could occur from electrical shock or body contact with moving chain. WARNING: Cutting edges on chain are sharp. Use protective gloves when handling chain. Keep chain sharp. Your saw will cut faster and more safely. A dull chain will cause undue sprocket, guide bar, chain, and motor wear. If you must force chain into wood and cutting creates only sawdust with few large chips, chain is dull. Items Needed to Sharpen Chain Purchase these items from your local dealer, hardware store, or chain saw supplies outlet. • 5/32" round file •Depth gauge tool • File guide •Vise • Medium sized flat file Sharpening Cutters Use file guide for 30° filing. 1. Adjust chain for proper tension (see Saw Chain Tension Adjustment, pages 16 and 17). 2. Clamp guide bar in vise to hold saw steady. Note: Do not clamp chain. 3. Press 5/32" round file (attached to file guide) into groove between top plate and depth gauge on chain. File guide should rest on both top plate and depth gauge (see Figure 21). Note: File at midpoint of guide bar. 107705 20 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE Continued 4. Hold file guide level. Make sure 30...
