    							9EN5. Operating the Engine
    The chain oil flow can be changed by inserting a
    screwdriver in the hole on bottom of the clutch
    side.  Adjust according to your work conditions.
    The oil tank should become
    nearly empty by the time fuel is used up. Be sure
    to refill the oil tank every time when refueling the
    saw.
    •ADJUSTING THE CARBURETOR
    The carburetor has been adjusted at the factory.
    Should your unit need readjustment due to the
    changes in altitude or operating conditions,
    please let your skillful dealer make the adjust-
    ment. 
    A wrong adjustment may cause damage to your
    unit. 
    If you have to make the adjustment yourself,
    please follow the procedure below carefully.
    Before adjusting the carburetor, make sure that
    the provided air/fuel filters are clean and fresh
    and the fuel properly mixed.
    NOTE
    When adjusting, take the following steps:
    Be sure to adjust the carbu-
    retor with the bar chain attached.
    1. “H” and “L” needles are restricted within the
    number of turn as shown below.
    “H” needle: -1/4
    “L” needle: -1/4
    2. Start the engine and allow it to warm up in
    low speed for a few minutes.
    3. Turn the idle adjusting screw (T) counter-
    clockwise so that the saw chain does not
    turn. If the idling speed is too slow, turn the
    screw clockwise.
    4. Make a test cut and adjust the “H” needle for
    best cutting power, not for maximum speed.
    Over revolution of “H” needle
    causes a lack of power or a poor acceleration. In
    such a case please turn the “H” needle a little
    counterclockwise.
    •CHAIN BRAKE
    This machine is equipped with an automatic
    brake tostop saw chain rotation upon occur-
    rence of kickback during saw cutting.
    The brake is automatically operated by inertial
    force, which acts on the weight fitted inside the
    front guard.
    This brake can also be operated manually with
    the front guard turned down to the guide bar.
    To release the brake, pull up the front guard
    toward the front handle till a “click” sound is
    heard.
    Caution
    Be sure to confirm brake operation during daily
    inspection.
    How to confirm:
    1. Turn off the engine.

    2. Holding the chain saw horizontally, release
    your hand from the front handle, hit the tip of
    the guide bar to a stump or a piece of wood,
    and confirm brake operation. Operating level
    varies by bar size.
    In case the brake is not effective, ask our dealer
    for inspection and repairs.
    If the engine keeps rotating at high speed with
    the brake engaged, the clutch will overheat
    causing trouble.
    When the brake engages during operation,
    immediately release the throttle lever to stop the
    engine.
    •CARBURETOR ANTI-FREEZE MECHANISM
    Operating chain saws in temperatures of 0 – 5°C
    at times of high humidity may result in ice form-
    ing within the carburetor, and this in turn may
    cause the output power of the engine to be
    reduced or for the engine to fail to operate
    smoothly.
    This product has accordingly been designed
    with a ventilation hatch on the right side of the
    surface of the cylinder cover to allow warm air to
    be supplied to the engine and to thereby prevent
    icing from occurring.
    Under normal circumstances the product should
    be used in the normal operating mode, i.e., in themode which it is set at the time of shipment.
    However when the possibility exists that icing
    may occur, the unit should be set to operate in
    the anti-freeze mode before use
    Continuing to use the prod-
    uct in the anti-freeze mode even when tempera-
    tures have risen and returned to normal, may
    result in the engine failing to start properly or in
    the engine failing to operate at its normal speed,
    and for this reason you should always be sure to
    return the unit to the normal operating mode if
    there is no danger of icing occurring.
    HOW TO SWITCH BETWEEN OPERATING
    MODES
    1. Flip the engine switch to turn off the engine.
    2. Remove the cover to the air filter, remove the
    air filter, and then remove the choke knob from
    the cylinder cover.
    3. Loosen the screws holding the cylinder cover
    in place (i.e., the three screws on the inside
    and the one screw on the outside of the
    cover), and then remove the cylinder cover.
    4. Press with your finger down on the icing cap
    located on the right-hand side of the cylinder
    cover to remove the icing cap.
    5. Adjust the icing cap so that the “snow” mark
    faces upwards and then return it to its original
    position in the cylinder cover.
    6. Fix the cylinder cover back into its original
    position, and then fix all other parts back into
    their proper positions.
    •STOPPING THE ENGINE
    1. Release the throttle lever to allow the engine
    to idle for a few minutes
    2. Set the switch to the “O” (STOP) position.

    							11EN6. Sawing
    •Before proceeding to
    your job, read the sec-
    tion “For Safe Oper-
    ation”. It is recommend-
    ed to first practice saw-
    ing easy logs. This also
    helps you get accus-
    tomed to your unit.
    •Always follow the safety
    regulations. The chain
    saw must only be used
    for cutting wood. It is
    forbidden to cut other
    types of material.
    Vibrations and kickback
    vary with different mate-
    rials and the require-
    ments of the safety reg-
    ulations would not be
    respected. Do not use
    the chain saw as a lever
    for lifting, moving or
    splitting objects. Do not
    lock it over fixed stands.
    It is forbidden to hitch
    tools or applications to
    the PTO other than
    those specified by the
    manufacturer.
    •It is not necessary to force the saw into the
    cut. Apply only light pressure while running the
    engine at full throttle.
    •When the saw chain is caught in the cut, do
    not attempt to pull it out by force, but use a
    wedge or a lever to open the way.
    •GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK
    !WARNING!•This saw is equipped with
    a chain brake that will
    stop the chain in the
    event of kickback if oper-
    ating properly. You must
    check the chain brake
    operation before each
    usage by running the saw
    at full the throttle for 1-2
    seconds and pushing the
    front hand guard forward.
    The chain should stop
    immediately with the
    engine at full speed. If the
    chain is slow to stop or
    does not stop, replace the
    brake band and clutch
    drum before use.
    •It is extremely important
    that the chain brake be
    checked for proper oper-
    ation before each use and
    that the chain be sharp in
    order to maintain the kick-
    back safety level of this
    saw. Removal of the safe-
    ty devices, inadequate
    maintenance, or incorrect
    replacement of the bar or
    chain may increase the
    risk to serious personal
    injury due to kickback.
    •FELLING A TREE
    1. Decide the felling direction considering the
    wind, lean of the tree, location of heavy
    branches, ease of completing the task after
    felling and other factors.
    2.While clearing the area around the tree,
    arrange a good foothold and retreat path.
    (1) Notch cut
    (2) Felling cut
    (3) Felling direction
    6. Sawing   
    						
    							12MM12EN6. Sawing
    3. Make a notch cut one-third of the way into
    the tree on the felling side.
    4. Make a felling cut from the opposite side of
    the notch and at a level slightly higher than
    the bottom of the notch.
    When you fell a tree, be
    sure to warn neighboring workers of the dan-
    ger.
    Bucking and Limbing
    •Always ensure your foothold. Do not stand
    on the log.
    •Be alert to the rolling over of a cut log.
    Especially when working on a slope, stand
    on the uphill side of the log.
    •Follow the instructions in “For Safe
    Operation” to avoid kickback of the saw.
    Before starting work, check the direction of
    bending force inside the log to be cut. Always
    finish cutting from the opposite side of the bend-
    ing direction to prevent the guide bar from being
    caught in the cut.
    A log lying on the ground
    Saw down halfway, then roll the log over and cut
    from the opposite side.
    A log hanging off the ground
    In area “A”, saw up from the bottom one-third
    and finish by sawing down from the top. In area
    “B”, saw down from the top one-third and finish
    by sawing up from the bottom.
    !WARNING!
    !WARNING!Cutting the limbs of Fallen Tree
    First check to which side the limb is bent. Then
    make the initial cut from the bent side and finish
    by sawing from the opposite side.
    Be alert to the springing
    back of a cut limb.
    Pruning of Standing Tree
    Cut up from the bottom, finish down from the
    top.
    •Do not work standing on unstable bases or
    rung ladders.
    •Do not overreach.
    •Do not cut above shoulder height.
    •Always use both your hands to hold the
    saw.

    							15EN8. Maintenance of Saw Chain and Guide Bar
    1. Saw Chain
    It is very important for
    smooth and safe operation to always keep
    the cutters sharp.
    The cutters need to be sharpened when:
    •Sawdust becomes powder-like.
    •You need extra force to saw in.
    •The cut path does not go straight.
    •Vibration increases.
    •Fuel consumption increases.
    Cutter setting standards
    Be sure to wear safety
    gloves.
    Before filing:
    •Make sure the saw chain is held securely.
    •Make sure the engine is stopped.
    •Use a round file of proper size for the chain
    (see “Chain maintenance table”).
    Place the file on the cutter and push straight for-
    ward.
    Keep the file position as illustrated.
    After each cutter has been filed, check the depth
    gauge and file it to the proper level as illustrated.
    Be sure to round off the
    front edge to reduce the chance of kickback
    or tie-strap breakage.
    !WARNING!

    !WARNING!
    Make sure every cutter has the same length and
    edge angles as illustrated.
    2. Guide Bar
    •Reverse the bar occasionally to prevent partial
    wear.
    •The bar rail should always be square. 
    Check for wear of the bar rail. Apply a ruler to the
    bar and the outside of a cutter. If a gap is
    observed between them, the rail is normal.
    Otherwise, the bar rail is worn. Such a bar needs
    to be corrected or replaced.

    							2MM2DE1. Sicherheitshinweise
    1.Die Kettensäge niemals betreiben,
    wenn Sie ermüdet oder aufgeregt sind
    oder sich körperlich nicht wohl fühlen.
    Auch nach dem Einnehmen von
    Medikamenten, die einen beruhigen-
    den Effekt haben und insbesondere
    nach Alkohol- oder Drogengenuss
    darf auf keinen Fall mit der Ketten-
    säge gearbeitet werden.
    2.Festes Schuhwerk, eng anliegende

    3.Halten Sie die Kette stets in gut
    geschärftem Zustand, und achten Sie
    auf regelmäßige Wartung der
    Kettensäge, einschließlich des AV-
    Systems. Eine stumpfe Kette verlän-
    gert die zum Schneiden erforderliche
    Zeit, und erfordert erhöhten Druck auf
    die Säge, wodurch die zu den Händen
    übertragenen Vibrationen verstärkt
    werden. Eine Kettensäge mit gelok-
    kerten Teilen oder beschädigten bzw.
    Abgenutzten AV-Dämpfern wird eben-
    falls einen höheren Vibrationspegel
    aufweisen.
    4.Alle oben angeführten Vor-
    sichtsmaßnahmen garantieren aller-
    dings nicht, daß Sie von der Weiß-
    fingerkrankheit oder dem Karp-
    altunnel-Syndrom verschont bleiben.
    Aus diesem Grund müssen Personen,
    die eine Kettensäge auf regelmäßiger
    Basis benutzen, den Zustand ihrer
    Hände und Finger sorgfältig überwa-
    chen. Wenn eines der oben beschrie-
    benen Symptome auftritt, nehmen Sie
    sofort ärztliche Hilfe in Anspruch.

    schüttet wurde, diesen sofort aufwi-
    schen, und die Kettensäge minde-
    stens 3 m vom Auftank-Ort entfernen,
    bevor der Motor angelassen wird.
    6.Alle Funken- oder Feuerquellen (z.
    B. brennende Zigaretten, offene
    Flammen oder funkenverursachende
    Arbeiten) aus allen Bereichen fern hal-
    ten, in denen Kraftstoff gemischt, ein-
    gefüllt oder aufbewahrt wird.
    7.Bei der Handhabung von Kraftstoff
    oder beim Betreiben der Kettensäge

    achten, dass sich Kinder, Haustieren
    und Zuschauer während des
    Anlassens und des Betriebs der
    Kettensäge mindestens 10 m entfernt
    halten.
    9.Niemals mit der Arbeit beginnen,
    bevor nicht der Arbeitsbereich aufge-
    räumt, für einen sicheren Stand
    gesorgt und ein Fluchtweg aus der
    Reichweite des fallenden Baums fest-
    gelegt ist.
    10.Wenn der Motor läuft, die
    Kettensäge stets mit beiden Händen
    halten, und dabei mit allen Fingern
    den Griff der Kettensäge fest umfas-
    sen.
    11.Bei laufendem Motor alle anderen
    Körperteile von der Kettensäge ent-
    fernt halten.
    12.Sich vor dem Anlassen des
    Motors vergewissern, dass die Kette
    nirgends anliegt.
    13.Die Kettensäge immer mit ausge-
    schaltetem Motor tragen, und zwar
    mit dem Kettensteg und der Kette
    nach hinten und dem Schalldämpfer
    vom Körper weg weisend.
    14.Vor jeder Inbetriebnahme die
    Kettensäge auf abgenutzte, gelocker-
    te oder beschädigte Teile überprüfen.
    Niemals ein Gerät benutzen, das
    beschädigt, nicht ordnungsgemäß
    eingestellt oder nicht vollständig und
    betriebssicher zusammen gebaut ist.
    Sich vergewissern, dass die Kette
    beim Loslassen des Gasgriffs sofort
    stoppt.
    15.Alle War tungsarbeiten an der
    Kettensäge – mit Ausnahme der in der
    Betriebsanleitung aufgeführten
    Arbeiten – sind von qualifiziertem
