Bucking a log (Fig.12-15)
Bucking is cutting a log into lengths. It is important to
make sure your footing is firm and your weight is evenly
distributed on both feet. When possible the log should be
raised and supported by the use of limbs, logs or chocks.
Follow the simple direction for easy cutting:
a) When the log is supported along the entire length, it is
cut from the top (overbuck). (Fig.12)
b) When the log is supported on one end, cut 1/3 of the
diameter from the underside (underbuck). Then make
the finished cut by overbucking to meeting the first cut.
(Fig.13)
c) When the log is supported on both ends, cut 1/3 of
that diameter from the top(overbuck). Then make the
finished cut by underbucking the lower 2/3 to meet the
d) When bucking on a slope always stand on the uphill
side of the log. When cutting through, to maintain
complete control, release the cutting pressure near the
end of the cut without relaxing your grip on the chain
saw handles. (Fig.15).
Do not let the chain contact the ground. After completing
the cut, wait for the saw chain to stop before you move
the chain saw. Always stop the motor before moving from
tree to tree.
MAINTENANCE
ADJUSTING THE CHAIN TENSION (Fig. 2)
Warning:
Always disconnect the chain saw from the
mains power supply before checking the chain
tensioning or making adjustments to the chain.
Wear protective gloves while touching the chain,
bar or areas around the chain.
Untighten the Chain tensioner knob (15) slightly by
turning it counterclockwise.
To increase the chain tension, turn the chain
the chain tensioning frequently. To reduce the chain
counterclockwise and check the chain tensioning
frequently.
The chain tensioning is correct when the gap
between the cutter in the chain and the bar is
on the lower side of the bar in the middle downwards
(away from the bar) and measure the distance
between the bar and the chain cutters.

Tighten the chain tensioner knob (15) by turning it
clockwise.
REPLACING THE BAR AND CHAIN (Fig. 2, 3, 5, 7, 22)
Warning:
Always disconnect the chain saw from the
mains power supply before checking the chain
tensioning or making adjustments to the chain.
Wear protective gloves while touching the chain,
bar or areas around the chain.
Put the saw down on a flat and even surface to
make adjustments to the chain.
Make sure that you have the correct replacement
bar and chain as advised earlier in the specification
section of this manual.
Unscrew the Chain tensioner knob (15) by turning it
counterclockwise until the sprocket cover (13) comes
loose.
Remove the sprocket cover.
Ensure that the chain tensioner mechanism (17)
is properly mounted onto the bar you want to put
back on to the chain saw. If you need to change the
replace it onto the new bar.
Put the new chain in the correct direction as shown
in figure 7 onto the bar and make sure that the drive
links are aligned in the bar groove (figure 5).
Attach the bar to the chain saw and loop the chain
around the drive sprocket as shown in figure 3.
Replace the sprocket cover (13) and make sure that
the chain tensioning mechanism (17) is aligning well
with the cover. Tighten the chain tensioner knob(15).
Follow the steps in paragraph "adjusting the chain
tension" earlier in this manual.
ADDING CHAIN & BAR LUBRICANT
Fill the oil into the oil tank and monitor the oil level
gauge (12) at the tank. Ensure that no dirt is coming
into the oil tank while filling the oil in.
Put the oil cap back on and tighten it up.
One full oil tank will enable you to use the saw for
CHAIN BRAKE
Warning:
Check the chain brake function before each use.
Take the saw to an authorized service centre for
repair if the chainbrake is not working properly.
This chain saw features a fast acting chainbrake
which stops the chain within 0.12 seconds when:
