REMOVING BUTTRESS ROOTS (See Figure )A buttress root is a large root extending from the trunk of the tree above the ground. Remove large buttress roots prior to felling. Make the horizontal cut into the buttress first, followed by the vertical cut. Remove the resulting loose section from the work area. Follow the correct tree felling procedure as stated in Proper Procedure For Tree Felling after you have removed the large buttress roots.

BUCKING (See Figure )Bucking is the term used for cutting a fallen tree to the desired log length.

control of the chainsaw when cutting through the log, release the cutting pressure near the end of the cut without relaxing your grip on the chainsaw handles. Do not let the chain contact the ground. After completing the cut, wait for the saw chain to stop before you move the chainsaw. Always stop the motor before moving from tree to tree.

BUCKING WITH A WEDGE (See Figure 16)If the wood diameter is large enough for you to insert a soft bucking wedge without touching the chain, you should use the wedge to hold the cut open to prevent pinching.

BUCKING LOGS UNDER STRESS (See Figure 17)Make the first bucking cut 1/3 of the way through the log, and finish with a 2/3 cut on the opposite side. As you cut the log, it will tend to bend. The saw can become pinched or hung in the log if you make the first cut deeper than 1/3 of the diameter of the log.Give special attention to logs under stress to prevent the bar and chain from pinching.

OVERBUCKING (See Figure 18)Begin on the top side of the log with the bottom of the saw against the log; exert light pressure downward. Note that the saw will tend to pull away from you.

UNDERBUCKING (See Figure 19)Begin on the under side of the log with the top of the saw against the log; exert light pressure upward. During underbucking, the saw will tend to push back at you. Be prepared for this reaction, and hold the saw firmly to maintain control.

GENERAL MAINTENANCEAvoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents. Use a clean cloth to remove dirt, dust, lubricant, grease, etc.

LUBRICATIONAll of the bearings in this product are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high-grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication is required.

WARNING:When servicing, use only identical YARDWORKS replacement parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause product damage.

WARNING:Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields during power tool operation or when blowing dust. If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.

WARNING:Do not let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based products, penetrating lubricants, etc., come into contact with plastic parts at any time. Chemicals can damage, weaken or destroy plastic, which may result in serious personal injury.

NOTE: When replacing the guide bar and chain, always use the specified bar and chain listed in the Bar and Chain Combinations section later in this manual.

REPLACING THE GUIDE BAR AND CHAIN (See Figure 23-29)

WARNING:To avoid serious personal injury, read and understand all the safety instructions in this section.

WARNING:Before performing any maintenance, make sure the tool is unplugged from the power supply. Failure to heed this warning could result in serious personal injury.

WARNING:Never touch or adjust the chain while the motor is running. The saw chain is very sharp. Always wear protective gloves when performing maintenance involving the chain to avoid possible serious lacerations.

CAUTION:Always wear gloves when handling the bar and chain. These components are sharp and may contain burrs.

DANGER:Never start the motor before installing the guide bar, chain, chain cover, and chain cover lock knob. Without all these parts in place, the clutch can fly off or explode, exposing the user to possible serious injury.

MAINTENANCE

32

Use only a low-kickback chain on this saw. This fast-cutting chain provides kickback reduction when properly maintained.For smooth and fast cutting, maintain the chain properly.The chain requires sharpening when the wood chips are small and powdery, the chain must be forced through the wood during cutting, or the chain cuts to one side. During maintenance of the chain, consider the following:

on the wood, have an authorized service centre sharpen the chain.NOTE:wear or damage are present in the areas indicated, have the drive sprocket replaced by an authorized service centre.NOTE:reading the instructions that follow, have the saw chain sharpened by an authorized service centre or replace with a recommended low-kickback chain.

CHAIN MAINTENANCE (See Figure 32)

CAUTION:Make sure the chainsaw is disconnected from the power supply before you work on the saw.

Be careful to file all cutters to the specified angles and to the same length, because fast cutting can only be obtained when all cutters are uniform.

Use a 5/32" (4 mm) diameter round file and holder. Do all of your filing at the midpoint of the bar.
