OPERATING CHAIN SAW

CUTTING WITH THE CHAIN SAW

1. Connect saw to extension cord. Connect exten-
sion cord to power supply.
2. Make sure section of log to be cut is not laying
on ground. This will keep chain from touching
ground as it cuts through log. Touching ground
with moving chain will dull chain.
3. Use both hands to grip saw. Always use left hand
to grip front handle and right hand to grip rear
handle. Use firm grip. Thumbs and fingers must
wrap around saw handles (see Figure 10).
4. Make sure your footing is firm. Keep feet apart.
Divide your weight evenly on both feet.
5. When ready to make a cut, push the lockout
button completely forward with the right thumb
and squeeze the trigger (see Figure 10). This will
turn saw on. Releasing trigger will turn saw off.
Make sure saw is running at full speed before
starting a cut.
6. When starting a cut, place moving chain against
wood. Hold saw firmly in place to avoid possible
bouncing or skating (sideways movement) of saw.
7. Guide saw using light pressure. Do not force
saw. The motor will overload and can burn out.
It will do the job better and safer at the rate for
which it was intended.
8. Remove saw from a cut with saw running at full
speed. Stop saw by releasing trigger. Make sure
chain has stopped before setting saw down.
9. Practice until you can maintain a steady, even
cutting rate.

Before Felling a Tree
1. Before felling, inspect tree. Make sure there are
no dead limbs or branches that may fall on you.
Study natural lean of tree, location of larger
branches, and wind direction. This will help you
judge which way tree will fall.
2. Clear work area around tree.
3. Plan and clear a retreat path before felling. Make
retreat path opposite to planned direction of fall
of tree and at 45° angle (see Figure 11).
