S Carefully plan your sawing operation inad-vance. Donot start cutting until you have aclear work area, secure footing, and, if youare felling trees, a planned retreat path.

OPERATE YOUR SAW SAFELYS Do not operate a chain sawwith one hand.

Serious injury to the operator, helpers, by-standers or any combination of these per-sons may result from one-handed opera-tion. A chain saw is intended fortwo-handed use.

S Operate the chain saw only in awell-venti-lated outdoor area.

S Do not operate saw from a ladder or in atree.

SMake sure the chain will not make contactwith any object while starting the engine.Never try to start the saw when the guidebar is in a cut.

S Do not put pressure on the saw at the endof the cut. Applying pressure can causeyou to lose control when the cut is com-pleted.

S Stop the engine before setting the sawdown.

S Do not operate a chain saw that is dam-aged, improperly adjusted, or not com-pletely and securely assembled. Alwaysreplace bar, chain, hand guard, or chainbrake immediately if it becomes damaged,broken or is otherwise removed.

S With the engine stopped, hand carry thechain saw with the muffler away from yourbody, and the guide bar and chain to therear, preferably covered with a scabbard.

MAINTAIN YOUR SAW IN GOODWORKING ORDERS Have all chain saw service performed by a

qualified service dealer with the exceptionof the items listed in the maintenance sec-tionof this manual. Forexample, if improp-er tools are used to remove or hold the fly-wheel when servicing the clutch, structuraldamage to the flywheel can occur andcause the flywheel to burst.

S Make certain the saw chain stops movingwhen the throttle trigger is released. Forcorrection, refer to CARBURETOR AD-JUSTMENTS.

S Never modify your saw in any way.S Keep the handles dry,clean, and free of oil

or fuel mixture.S Keep fuel and oil caps, screws, and fas-

teners securely tightened.S Use only PoulanR accessories and re-

placement parts as recommended.

HANDLE FUEL WITH CAUTIONS Do not smoke while handling fuel or while

operating the saw.S Eliminate all sources of sparks or flame in

the areas where fuel is mixed or poured.There should be no smoking, open flames,or work that could cause sparks. Allow en-gine to cool before refueling.

S Mix and pour fuel in an outdoor area onbare ground; store fuel in a cool, dry, wellventilated place; and use an approved,

marked container for all fuel purposes.Wipe up all fuel spills before starting saw.

S Move at least 10 feet (3 meters) from fuel-ing site before starting engine.

S Turn the engine off and let saw cool in anon-combustible area, not on dry leaves,straw, paper, etc. Slowly remove fuel capand refuel unit.

S Storethe unit and fuel in anarea where fuelvapors cannot reach sparks or openflames from water heaters, electric motorsor switches, furnaces, etc.

KICKBACK

WARNING: Avoid kickback which

can result in serious injury. Kickback is thebackward, upward or sudden forward motionof the guide bar occurring when the sawchain near the upper tip of the guide bar con-tacts any object such as a log or branch, orwhen the wood closes in and pinches thesaw chain in the cut. Contacting a foreign ob-ject in the wood can also result in loss ofchain saw control.S Rotational Kickback can occur when the

moving chain contacts an object at the up-per tip of the guide bar. This contact cancause the chain to dig into the object,which stops the chain for an instant. Theresult is a lightning fast, reverse reactionwhich kicks the guide bar up and back to-ward the operator.

S Pinch-Kickback can occur when the thewood closes in and pinches the moving

saw chain in the cut along the top of theguide bar and the saw chain is suddenlystopped. This sudden stopping of thechain results in a reversal of the chainforce used to cut wood and causes thesawto move in theopposite direction ofthechain rotation. The saw is driven straightback toward the operator.

S Pull-In can occur when the moving chaincontacts a foreign object in the wood in thecut along thebottom of the guide bar and thesawchain is suddenly stopped. This suddenstopping pulls the saw forward and awayfrom the operator and could easily cause theoperator to lose control of the saw.

Avoid Pinch--Kickback:S Be extremely aware of situations or ob-

structions that can cause material to pinchthe top of or otherwise stop the chain.

SDo not cut more than one log at a time.S Do not twist the saw as the bar is with-drawn from an undercut when bucking.

Avoid Pull --In:S Always begin cutting with the engine at full

speed and the saw housing against wood.S Use wedges made of plastic or wood.

Never use metal to hold the cut open.

Avoid Obstructions

Clear The Working Area

REDUCE THE CHANCE OFKICKBACKS Recognize that kickback can happen.

With a basic understanding of kickback,you can reduce the element of surprisewhich contributes to accidents.

S Never let the moving chain contact any ob-

ject at the tip of the guide bar.S Keep the working area free from obstruc-tions such as other trees, branches, rocks,fences, stumps, etc. Eliminate or avoidany obstruction that your saw chain couldhit while you are cutting. When cutting abranch, do not let the guide bar contactbranch or other objects around it.

S Keep your saw chain sharp and properlytensioned. A loose or dull chain can in-crease the chance of kickback occurring.Follow manufacturer s chain sharpeningand maintenance instructions. Check ten-sion at regular intervals with the enginestopped, never with the engine running.Make sure the chain brake nuts are se-curely tightened after tensioning the chain.

S Begin and continue cutting at full speed. Ifthe chain is moving at a slower speed,

there is greater chance of kickback occur-ring.S Cut one log at a time.S Use extreme caution when re-entering a

previous cut.S Do not attempt cuts starting with the tip of

the bar (plunge cuts).S Watch for shifting logs or other forces that

could close a cut and pinch or fall intochain.

S Use the Reduced--Kickback Guide Barand Low--Kickback Chain specified foryour saw.

MAINTAIN CONTROL

Never reversehand positions

Stand to theleft of the saw

Thumb onunderside ofhandlebar

Thumb on underside ofhandlebar

Elbow locked

S Keep a good, firmgrip on thesawwithbothhands when the engine is running and

dont let go. A firmgrip will help youreducekickback and maintain control of the saw.Keep the fingers of your left hand encir-cling and your left thumb under the fronthandlebar. Keep your right hand com-pletely around the rear handle whetheryour are right handed or left handed. Keepyour left arm straight with the elbowlocked.

S Position your left hand on the front handle-bar so it is in a straight line with your righthand on the rear handle when makingbucking cuts. Never reverse right and lefthand positions for any type of cutting.

S Stand with your weight evenly balanced onboth feet.

S Stand slightly to the left side of the saw tokeep your body from being in a direct linewith the cutting chain.

S Do not overreach. You could be drawn orthrown off balance and lose control of thesaw.

S Do not cut above shoulder height. It is diffi-cult to maintain control of saw aboveshoulder height.

KICKBACK SAFETY FEATURES

WARNING: The following featuresare included on your saw to help reduce thehazard of kickback; however, such featureswill not totally eliminate this danger. As achain sawuser, do not rely only on safety de-vices. You must follow all safety precau-tions, instructions, and maintenance in thismanual to help avoid kickback and otherforces which can result in serious injury.S Reduced--Kickback Guide Bar, designed

with a small radius tip which reduces the

size of the kickback danger zone on thebar tip. A Reduced--Kickback Guide Barhas been demonstrated to significantly re-duce the number and seriousness of kick-backs when tested in accordance withsafety requirements for gasoline poweredchain saws as set by ANSI B175.1.

CHAIN BRAKE AND CKA ANGLES Chain Brake, designed to stop the chain in

the event of kickback.

WARNING: WE DO NOT REP-

RESENT AND YOU SHOULD NOT AS-SUME THAT THE CHAIN BRAKE WILLPROTECT YOU IN THE EVENT OF AKICKBACK. Kickback is a lightning fast ac-tion which throws the bar and rotating chainback and up toward the operator. Kickback

can be caused by allowing contact of the bartip in the danger zone with any hard object.Kickback canalso be caused by pinching thesaw chain along thetop ofthe guide bar. Thisaction may push the guide bar rapidly backtoward the operator. Either of these eventsmay cause you to lose control of the sawwhich could result in serious injury or evendeath. DO NOT RELY UPON ANY OF THEDEVICES BUILT INTO YOUR SAW. YOUSHOULDUSE THE SAW PROPERLY ANDCAREFULLY TO AVOID KICKBACK. Re-duced--kickback guide bars and low--kick-back saw chains reduce the chance andmagnitude of kickback and are recom-mended. Yoursaw has a low kickback chain

and bar as original equipment. Repairs on achain brake should be made by an autho-rized servicing dealer. Take your unit to theplace of purchase if purchased from a ser-vicing dealer, or to the nearest authorizedmaster service dealer.S Tipcontact in some cases may cause a light-

ning fast reverse REACTION, kicking guidebar up and back toward operator.

S Pinching the saw chain along the top of theguide bar may push the guide bar rapidlyback toward the operator.

S Either of these reactions may cause you tolose control of the saw which could result inserious injury. Do not rely exclusively upondevices built into your saw.

WARNING: Computed kickbackangle (CKA) listed on yoursawandlisted inthe

CKA table below represents angle of kickbackyour bar and chain combinations will havewhen tested in accordance with CSA (Cana-dian Standards Association) and ANSI stan-dards. When purchasing replacement bar andchain, considerations should be given to thelower CKA values. Lower CKA values repre-sent safer angles to the user, higher values in-dicate more angle and higher kick energies.Computed angles represented indicate totalenergy and angle associated without activationof the chain brake during kickback. Activatedangle represents chain stopping time relative toactivation angle of chain break and resultingkick angle of saw. In all cases lower CKA val-ues represent a safer operating environmentfor the user.The following guide bar and chain combina-tions meet kickback requirements of CSA

Standards Z62.1, Z62.3, & ANSI B175.1when used on saws listed in this manual.Use of bar and chain combinations otherthan those listed is not recommended andmay not meet the CKA requirements perstandard.

FUELING & LUBRICATION

WARNING: Remove fuel cap slow-ly when refueling.

FUELING ENGINEThis engine is certified to operate on un-leaded gasoline. Before operation, gasolinemust be mixed with a good quality synthetic2-cycle air-cooled engine oil designed to bemixed at a ratio of 40:1. Poulan/Weed Eaterbrand synthetic oil is recommended. A 40:1ratio is obtained by mixing 3.2 ounces of oilwith 1 gallon of unleaded gasoline. Included

with this saw is a 3.2 ounce container of Pou-lan/Weed Eater brand synthetic oil. Pour theentire contents of this container into 1 gallon ofgasoline to achieve the proper fuel mixture.DO NOT USE automotive or boat oil. Theseoils will cause engine damage. When mixingfuel follow the instructions printed on thecontainer. Always read and follow the safetyrules listed under HANDLE FUEL WITHCAUTION.

BAR AND CHAIN LUBRICATIONThe bar and chain require continuous lubri-cation. Lubrication is provided by the auto-matic oiler system when the oil tank is keptfilled. Lack of oil will quickly ruin the bar andchain. Too little oil will cause overheatingshown by smoke coming from the chain and/or discoloration of the bar.In freezing weather oil will thicken, making itnecessary to thin bar and chain oil with asmall amount (5 to 10%) of #1 Diesel Fuel orkerosene. Bar and chain oil must be freeflowing for the oil system to pump enough oilfor adequate lubrication.GenuinePoulanRbarand chain oil is recom-mended to protect your unit against exces-sive wear from heat and friction. PoulanRoil resists high temperature thinning. IfPou-lanR bar and chain oil is notavailable, use agood grade SAE 30 oil.S Never use waste oil for barand chain lubri-

cation.S Always stop the engine before removing

the oil cap.

IMPORTANTExperience indicates that alcohol--blendedfuels (called gasohol or using ethanol or

methanol) can attract moisture which leadsto separation and formation of acids duringstorage. Acidic gas can damage the fuelsystem of an engine while in storage. Toavoid engine problems, the fuel systemshould be emptied before storage for 30days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start theengine and let it run until the fuel lines andcarburetor are empty. Use fresh fuel nextseason. See STORAGE section for addi-tional information.

STARTING

WARNING: The chain must notmove when the engine runs at idle speed. Ifthe chain moves at idle speed refer to CAR-BURETOR ADJUSTMENT within thismanual. Avoid contact with the muffler. A hotmuffler can cause serious burns.To stop the engine move the ON/STOPswitch to the STOP position.To start the enginehold the saw firmly onthe ground as illustrated. Make sure thechain is free to turn without contacting any

object.

Hold saw firmly while pulling starter rope.Use only 15--18 of rope per pull.

CHAIN BRAKE

WARNING: If the brake band isworn too thin it may break when the chainbrakeis triggered. With a broken brakeband,the chain brake will not stop the chain. Thechain brake should be replaced by an autho-rized service dealer if any part is worn to lessthan 0.020! (0.5 mm) thick. Repairs on achain brake should be made by an autho-rized service dealer. Take your unit to the

place of purchase if purchased from a ser-vicing dealer, or to the nearest authorizedmaster service dealer.S This saw is equipped with a chain brake.

The brake is designed to stop the chain ifkickback occurs.

S The inertia--activated chain brake isactivated if the front hand guard is pushedforward, either manually (by hand) orautomatically (by sudden movement).

S If the brake is already activated, it isdisengaged by pulling the front hand guardback toward the front handle as far aspossible.

S When cutting with the saw, the chain brakemust be disengaged.

WARNING: When performing thefollowing procedure, the engine must beturned off.Grip the rear handle with your right hand andthe front handle with your left hand. Hold thechain saw approximately 14! (35 cm) abovea stump or other wooden surface. Releaseyour grip on the front handle and use the

weight of the saw to let the top of the guidebar fall forward and contact the stump.When the tip of the bar hits the stump, thebrake should activate.

CUTTING METHODS

IMPORTANT POINTSS Check chain tension before first use and

after 1 minute of operation. See CHAINTENSION in the ASSEMBLY section.

S Cut wood only. Do not cut metal, plastics,masonry, non-wood building materials, etc.

S Stop the saw if the chain strikes a foreignobject. Inspect the saw and repair or re-place parts as necessary.

S Keep the chain out of dirt and sand. Even asmall amount of dirt will quickly dull a chain

and thusincrease the possibility of kickback.S Practice cutting a few small logs using the

following techniques to get the feel of us-ing your saw before you begin a majorsawing operation.S Squeeze the throttle trigger and allow

the engine to reach full speed beforecutting.

S Begin cutting with the saw frameagainst the log.

S Keep the engine at full speed the entiretime you are cutting.

S Allowthe chain to cutfor you. Exert onlylight downward pressure. If you forcethe cut, damage to the bar, chain, oren-gine can result.


11/18

11

S Release the throttle trigger as soon asthe cut is completed, allowing the en-gine to idle. If you run the saw at fullthrottle without a cutting load, unneces-sary wear can occur to the chain, bar,and engine. It is recommended thatthe engine not be operated for lon-ger than 30 seconds at full throttle.

S To avoid losing control when cut is com-plete, do not putpressure on sawat endof cut.

S Stop the engine before setting the sawdown after cutting.

TREE FELLING TECHNIQUES

WARNING: Check for broken or

dead branches which can fall while cuttingcausing serious injury. Do not cut near build-ings or electrical wires if you do not know thedirection of tree fall, norcut at night since youwill not be ale to see well, nor during badweather such as rain, snow, or strong winds,etc. If the tree makes contact with any utilityline, the utility company should be notifiedimmediately.S Carefully plan your sawing operation inad-

vance.S Clearthe work area. You need a clear area

all around the tree so you can have securefooting.

S The chain saw operator should keep onthe uphill side of the terrain as the tree islikely to roll or slide downhill after it is felled.

S Study the natural conditions that can causethe tree to fall in a particular direction.

Natural conditions that can cause a tree tofall in a particular direction include:S The wind direction and speed.S The lean of the tree. The lean of a tree

might not be apparent due to uneven orsloping terrain. Usea plumb orlevel to de-termine the direction of tree lean.

S Weight and branches on one side.S Surrounding trees and obstacles.Look for decay and rot. If the trunk isrotted,it can snap and fall toward the operator.Check for broken or dead branches whichcan fall on you while cutting.Make sure there is enough room for the treeto fall. Maintain a distance of 2-1/2 treelengths from the nearest person or other ob-jects. Engine noise can drown out a warningcall.

Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, sta-ples, and wirefromthe tree where cuts are tobe made.Plan a clear retreat path to the rear and diag-onal to the line of fall.

Direction of Fall

Plan a clear retreat path

FELLING LARGE TREES(6 inches in diameter or larger)The notch method is used to fell large trees.A notch is cut on the side of the tree in the de-sired direction of fall. After a felling cut ismade on the opposite side of tree, the treewill tend to fall into the notch.

NOTE: If the tree has large buttressroots, remove them before making thenotch. If using saw to remove buttressroots, keep saw chain from contactingground to prevent dulling of the chain.

NOTCH CUT AND FELLING THETREES Make notch cut by cutting the top of the

notch first. Cut through 1/3 of the diameterof thetree. Next complete the notch bycut-ting the bottom of the notch. See illustra-tion. Once the notch is cut remove thenotch of wood from the tree.

First cut

Second cut

Final (felling) cut here. 2 in-ches above center of notch.

Hinge

S After removing the wood from the notch,make the felling cut on the opposite side ofthenotch. Thisis doneby makinga cut abouttwo inches higher than the center of thenotch. This will leave enough uncut woodbetween the felling cut and the notch to forma hinge. This hinge will help prevent thetreefrom falling in the wrong direction.

Openingof fellingcut

Closing ofnotch

Hinge holds tree on stump and helpscontrol fall

NOTE: Before felling cut is complete, usewedges to open the cut if necessary tocontrol the direction of fall. To avoid kickbackand chain damage, use wood or plasticwedges, but never steel or iron wedges.S Be alert to signs that the tree is ready to

fall: cracking sounds, widening of the fell-ing cut, or movement in the upperbranches.

S As tree starts to fall, stop saw, put it down,and get away quickly on your planned re-treat path.


12/18

12

S DO NOT cut down a partially fallen treewith your saw. Be extremely cautious withpartially fallen trees that may be poorlysupported. When a tree doesnt fall com-pletely, setthe sawasideand pull down thetree with a cable winch, block and tackle,or tractor.

CUTTING A FALLEN TREE(BUCKING)Bucking is the term used for cutting a fallentree to the desired log size.

WARNING: Do not stand on the logbeing cut. Any portion can roll causing lossof footing and control. Do not stand downhill

of the log being cut.IMPORTANT POINTSS Cut only one log at a time.S Cut shattered wood very carefully; sharp

pieces of wood could be flung towardopera-tor.

S Use a sawhorse to cut small logs. Neverallow another person to hold the log whilecutting and never hold the log with yourlegor foot.

S Do not cut in an area where logs, limbs,and roots are tangled such as in a blowndown area. Drag the logs into a clear areabefore cutting by pulling out exposed andcleared logs first.

TYPES OF CUTTING USED FORBUCKING

WARNING: If saw becomespinched or hung in a log, dont try to force itout. You can lose control ofthe sawresultingin injury and/or damage to the saw. Stop thesaw, drive a wedge of plastic orwood intothecut until the saw canbe removed easily. Re-start the sawand carefully reenter the cut. Toavoid kickback and chain damage, do notuse a metal wedge. Do not attempt to restartyour saw when it is pinched or hung in a log.

Use a wedge to remove pinched saw

Turn saw OFF and use a plastic orwooden wedge to force cut open.

Overcuttingbegins on the top side of the logwith the bottom of the saw against the log.When overcutting use light downward pres-sure.

Overcutting

Undercutting

Undercuttinginvolves cutting on the under-side of thelog with topof saw against thelog.When undercutting use light upward pres-

sure. Hold saw firmly and maintain control.The saw will tend to push back toward you.

WARNING: Never turn saw upsidedown to undercut. The saw cannot be con-trolled in this position.Always make your first cut on the compres-sion side of the log. The compression side ofthe log is where the pressure of the logsweight is concentrated.

Second cut

First cut on compression side of log

First cut on compression side of log

Second cut

BUCKING WITHOUT A SUPPORTS Overcut through 1/3 of the diameter of the

log.S Roll the log over and finish with a second

overcut.S Watch for logs with a compression side to

prevent the saw from pinching. See il-lustrations for cutting logs with a compres-sion side.

BUCKING USING A LOG ORSUPPORT STANDS Remember your first cut is always on the

compression side of the log.(Refer to the illustrations below for yourfirst and second cut)

S Your first cut should extend 1/3 of thediameter of the log.

S Finish with your second cut.

LIMBING AND PRUNING

WARNING: Be alert for and guardagainst kickback. Do not allow the movingchain to contact any other branches or objectsat the nose of the guide bar when limbing orpruning. Allowing such contact can result inserious injury.

WARNING: Never climb intoa treetolimb or prune. Do not stand on ladders, plat-forms, a log, orin any position which can causeyou to lose your balance or control of the saw.

IMPORTANT POINTSS Work slowly, keeping both hands firmlygripped on the saw. Maintain secure footingand balance.

S Watch out for springpoles. Springpoles aresmall size limbs which can catch the sawchainand whiptowardyou orpullyou off bal-ance. Use extreme caution when cuttingsmall size limbs or slender material.

S Be alert for springback. Watch out forbranches that are bent or under pressure.Avoid being struck by the branch or thesaw when the tension in the wood fibers isreleased.

S Keep a clear work area. Frequently clearbranches out of the way to avoid trippingover them.

LIMBINGS Alwayslimb a tree after it is cutdown. Only

then can limbing be done safely and prop-erly.

S Leave the larger limbs underneath the felledtree to support the tree as you work.

S Start at the base of the felled tree and worktoward the top, cutting branches and limbs.Remove small limbs with one cut.

S Keep the tree between you and the chain.Cut from the side of the tree opposite thebranch you are cutting.

S Remove larger, supporting branches withthe cutting techniques described in BUCK-ING WITHOUT A SUPPORT.

S Always usean overcut to cut small andfree-ly hanging limbs. Undercutting could causelimbs to fall and pinch the saw.

PRUNING

WARNING: Limit pruning to limbsshoulder height or below. Do not cut ifbranches are higher than your shoulder. Get aprofessional to do the job.S Make your first cut 1/3of the way through the

bottom of the limb.S Next make a 2nd cut all the way through

thelimb.Then cut a third overcut leaving a1 to 2 inch collar from the truck of the tree.
