any obstacles at all times. Do not expose
the cord to heat, oil, water, or sharp edges.
wArNiNG: Never operate a Jawsaw
that is damaged or improperly adjusted
or that is not completely and securely
assembled. Be sure that the saw chain stops
moving when the power control system
triggers are released. Never adjust the guide
bar or saw when power cord is connected.

cuTTiNG
Check oil level window (5) prior to starting
and regularly during operation. Refill oil when
oil level is low.
Check newly replaced chain tension approx.
every 10 minutes during operation.
Always hold secondary handle firmly when
cutting (See Fig. P1, P2)
1. Connect saw and extension cord to
power.
2. Use both hands to grip saw firmly. Always
use left hand (1) to grip front handle and
right hand (2) to grip the rear handle.
Thumbs and fingers must wrap around
saw handles (See Fig. P1,P2).
3. wArNiNG: Make sure your footing is
firm and stable. Do not use the JawSaw
while standing on piles of branches or
while standing on a ladder.
hiNT: When cutting branches which are
lying on the ground, place one foot on the
branch to prevent limb from moving (See
Fig. Q).
wArNiNG! Do not put your foot in the
Jaw teeth, keep your foot a safe distance
from the tool. (See Fig. Q)
4. Position the tool with the Jaw placed over
the desired limb to be cut.
Guarded electric chain saw
wArNiNG: DO NOT force the cut. Let the
chain pull through the wood.
wArNiNG: When starting the saw make
sure the chain is not in contact with the
limb or branch to be cut.
5. Switch on the tool.
6. Push the rear handle towards the front
handle to complete the cut.
7. Switch off the tool after the bar and chain
have return to their starting position.
wArNiNG: When completing the cut

forcefully, let the spinning chain pull itself
through the wood.
wArNiNG: Using too much force
on the rear handle when cutting can
overload the tools motor.
cAuTioN: At the end of each cut be
prepared to support the tools weight.
TriMMiNG brANchES:
Before cutting any branch, you must consider
the following:
1. Is the branch heavy, will it damage
anything when it falls?
• Large branches should be cut in small
sections starting at the farthest end from
the tree.
• Always check where the branch will fall
BEFORE commencing the cut.
• Never stand under a branch being cut.
• Never cut two branches at once.
2. Will the branch split before it is cut
through? (See Fig.R1,R2.)
• To prevent splitting, use the JawSaw
inverted, make a small cut (less than 1/3
diameter of the limb) from the underside.
• Then turn the JawSaw over to the
normal position and cut from top down,
slightly further out from the trunk than the
initial undercut.
3. Is the branch under tension, will it spring
suddenly or trap the saw when it is cut?
• Always stand outside the path of a
springy branch. It can strike suddenly with
surprising force and cause injury or loss
of control of the saw.
• Always cut from the tension side of a
branch, usually the top of a branch on a
standing tree, but can be any side of the
