BRAKE DISENGAGED
BRAKE ENGAGED
NOTE: For operator safety, the chain brake disengaging action has been designed to be a firm deliberate action.
CHOKE - When the chainsaw is cold first pull out the choke control to the CHOKE position, (fully withdrawn).
WARNING!: Never start work unless the chain and bar are lubicated
RUN - Once the choke control has been pulled out, it returns automatically when the throttle trigger is operated
IMPORTANT!: Do not push the choke down manually. The choke will automatically return to run position when the throttle safety lock and trigger are pressed.
4. COLD STARTING
1. Set the switch to ON I.
5. CUTTING
I ON
2. Make sure the brake is ON when starting for safety, by pushing the front guard forward
1. When ready to start cutting, release the brake, by pulling the front guard back firmly towards the rear of the chainsaw
4. Depress the priming bulb approximately 6 times until the bulb is full.
2. The chainsaw has bucking spikes to assist with cutting and reduce the chance of kickback, use them as follows. Keep the bucking spikes touching the wood you are cutting. Due to the rotation of the chain, it will pull the saw into the wood. When the bucking spikes are touching the timber, it will help prevent any sudden jerking or kick-back.
O OFF

2. Adjust the chain tensioner screw clockwise until the links of the chain just touch the bottom edge of the guide bar.
3. Hold the chainsaw securely on the ground and pull vigorously on the recoil starter. Repeat (at least 15 times) until the engine starts.
3. For the correct chain tension, pull up on the chain from the top and middle of the exposed guide bar. The bottom tip of the links should only just stay in the track. 5 - 6.3mm gap is the ideal tension
4. Allow the engine to run for a few moments. 4. Adjust the chain tensioner screw for the correct tension. Once tensioned correctly tighten the chain drive cover nut.
Tighten
5. When ready to start cutting, release the brake, by pulling the front guard back firmly towards the rear of the saw
NOTE: Recheck the tension after a few minutes of cutting as the chain may stretch initially after use. A loose chain may cause wear to both the chain and the guide bar and become a major safety hazard.

APPLICATIONS
Felling a tree WARNING!: Felling a tree should only be done by trained operators.
Decide the direction in which you wish the tree to fall taking into account the direction of the wind, the position of branches, lean of the tree, ease of subsequent limbing and bucking and other factors prevalent at the time.
MAINTENANCE
NOTE: Before cleaning your chainsaw or carrying out any maintenance procedure, make sure that the engine is off and is cool. Disconnect the spark plug to prevent accidental starting
Maintenance to be preformed after each use
Limbing WARNING!: Always keep a balanced stance. Do not stand on the log. Be alert to the fact that the log may roll over. When working on a slope, always stand on the up hill side of the log.
Limbing is the process of removing the 1 branches from a fallen tree. Check the direction in which a branch will bend before cutting it. Always cut on the opposite side to the bending direction so that the guide 2 bar is not pinched in the cut. For large limbs that cannot be removed in one cut, make an initial cut from the bent side and finish by sawing from the opposite direction. Do not remove limbs that are supporting the fallen tree on the ground until the tree has been cut into lengths. 1. Loosen the filter cover knob and remove the filter over. 2. Remove the air filter. 3. Split the air filter into its two halves and clean the mesh. Dry particles can be removed by tapping on a hard surface. More stubborn dirt may require washing out the filter with petrol or using an air compressor. 4. Re-assemble the two halves and replace the airfilter, filter cover and filler cover knob. NOTE: The front guard (chain brake) must be disengaged to remove the chain drive cover, guide bar and chain. 5. Take off the guide bar and maintain it as follows, remove any saw dust from the groove in the guide bar. 6. Make sure that the oil port is not clogged. Grease the nose sprocket at the tip of the guide bar. 7. Check for fuel and oil leakage and loose fastenings, especially those securing the handles and the guide bar. 8. Clean any dust away from the cooling vents as clogged vents can cause overheating.
Bucking
Bucking is cutting a log into lengths for easier handling.To saw a log lying on the ground, first saw halfway, then roll the log over and cut from the opposite side.
To saw the end of a log supported off the 2 1 ground, first saw up from the bottom one-third through the log then finish by sawing down from the top. To saw a log in the middle of two supports holding it off the ground, first saw down from the top one-third through the log then finish by sawing up from the bottom.
Chain Sharpening
Chain File: Chain Pitch: Chain Guage: 3.96mm (5/32) 9.53mm (3/8) 1.3mm (0.050)
CAUTION!: Avoid cutting into the ground as this will very quickly dull the saw chain. Pruning WARNING!: Do not use an unstable foothold or ladder. Do not overreach. Do not saw above shoulder height. Always use both hands to hold the saw. First cut up from the bottom and finish down from the top.
Pruning is the removal of a limb or branch from a standing tree.
2
Sharpen the chain regularly to maintain optimum performance of the saw. Signs of a dull chain are: The sawdust becomes powder-like Extra force is required to execute a cut The cut does not track in a straight line Increased vibration Increased fuel consumption
outward stroke
Warning! Wear heavy gloves when handling the chain. Hold the guide bar securely in a vice. Sharpen each cutter using a chain file. Always use outward strokes. After sharpening, the cutters must all have the same width and length. After every 3-4 times use an authourised repair centre to professionally sharpen your saw chain. They have the special tools necessary to ensure the correct cutting angles and depths.
Reverse the guide bar every 8 working hours to ensure uniform wear. Check the bar rails frequently and if necessary remove burs and square-up the rails using a flat file.
The carburettor is factory set and should not require adjustment. Changes in operating conditions may require fine tuning of the carburettor. A special tool is required for making these adjustments. Contact Ozito Customer Service for advice and instructions. Aus: 1800 069 486 NZ: 0508 069 486
