 WARNING

Never operate the chain saw without suf

fi

 cient  chain 

lubrication as this might damage the saw and is a threat 
to safety. Check the chain lubricant level before each 
use!

In order to prevent kickback, please follow these safety 
instructions:



Never cut with the tip of the guide bar! Be careful when 
continuing from previous cuts.



Always start cutting only when the chain saw is already 
running.



Make sure that the saw chain is always properly 
sharpened.



Never cut through more than one branch at a time! 
When lopping off branches, be careful not to touch any 
other branches.



When cross-cutting, pay attention to trunks standing 
very close to each other. If possible, use a sawing trestle.

HOLDING THE CHAIN SAW 

See 

fi

 gure 8

Always  hold  the  chain  saw  with  your  right  hand at  the  
rear  handle  and  your  left  hand  at  the  front handle. 
Grip both handles with the thumbs and 

fi

 ngers  encircling 

the handles. Ensure that your left hand is holding the front 
handle so that your thumb is underneath.

STARTING OPERATION



Before starting for operation, you should install the 
battery pack in the machine.



Start the machine: Pull the Safety lock-off button (item 
4), and then pressure the switch trigger (item 5).

STOPPING OPERATION



Release the power switch trigger (item 5) to stop the 
chain saw.

USING THE CHAIN SAW

Always be sure of your footing and hold the chain saw 

fi

 rmly with both hands while the motor is running.

BASIC FELLING, LIMBING, AND CROSS-CUTTING 
TECHNIQUES

See 

fi

 gure 9

FELLING A TREE

When bucking and felling operations are being performed 
by two or more persons at the same time, the felling 
operation should be separated from the bucking operation 
by a distance of at least twice the height of the tree being 
felled. Trees should not be felled in a manner that would 

endanger any person, strike any utility line or cause any 
property damage. If the tree does make contact with 
any utility line, the utility company should be noti

fi

 ed 

immediately.
The chain saw operator should keep on the uphill side of 
the terrain as the tree is likely to roll or slide downhill after 
it is felled.
An escape path should be planned and cleared as 
necessary before cuts are started. The escape path 
should extend back and diagonally to the rear of the 
expected line of fall.
Before felling is started, consider the natural lean of the 
tree, the location of larger branches and the wind direction 
to judge which way the tree will fall.
Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, and staples from 
the tree.

NOTCHING UNDERCUT 

(A NOTCH CUT IN A TREE TO 

DIRECT THE FALL)

See Figure 10

Make the notch 1/3 in diameter of the tree, perpendicular 
to the direction of falls. Make the lower horizontal notching 
cut 

fi

 rst, this will help to avoid pinching of either the saw 

chain or the guide bar when the second notch is being 
made.

FELLING BACK CUT 

(THE FINAL CUT IN A TREE 

FELLING OPERATION, MADE ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE 
OF THE TREE FROM THE NOTCHING UNDERCUT)

See Figure 10

Make the felling back cut at least 50mm higher than the 
horizontal notching cut. Keep the felling back cut parallel 
to the horizontal notching cut. Make the felling back cut 
so as to leave enough wood to act as a hinge. The hinge 
wood keeps the tree from twisting and falling in the wrong 
direction. Do not cut through the hinge. As the felling cut 
gets close to the hinge, the tree should begin to fall. If 
there is any chance that the tree may not fall in the desired 
direction or it may rock back and bind the saw chain, stop 
cutting before the felling back cut is complete and use 
wedges of wood, plastic or aluminium to open the cut and 
drop the tree along the desired line of fall. When the tree 
begins to fall, remove the chain saw from the cut, stop the 
motor, put the chain saw down, and then use the retreat 
path as planned. Be alert of overhead limbs falling and 
watch your footing.

LIMBING A TREE

See 

fi

 gure 11

Limbing is removing the branches from a fallen tree. When 
limbing, leave the larger lower limbs to support the log off 
the ground. Remove the small limbs in one cut. Branches
