GUIDE BAR AND CHAIN OIL

The bar and chain requir e lubri cati on. The

manually--operated chain oiler provi des

lubri cati on to the chain and guide bar. Be

sur e to fi ll the bar oil tank before each cut-

ti n g session. The oi l er activator /bar oil cap

must be used regularl y and often enough

to maintai n a thin film of oil on the bar and

chain while saw is cutting. It is recom-

mended that the oiler actuator / bar oil cap

be operated every ten (10) seconds and

held for approxim atel y three (3) seconds

each ti me it is pr esse d. For m aximum

gui de bar and chain life, we recommend

you use Poulan chain saw bar oil. If Pou-

lan bar oil is not available, you may use a

good grade SAE 30 oil until you are able

to obtain Poulan brand. The oil output is

manually metered duri ng operat ion. Use

a funnel to fill the tank. Replace oil cap se-

curely . Check oil level after every 15 min-

utes of operation.

CUTTING METHODS

OPERATING TIPS

S Check ch ain tension before first use

and after 1 minute of op eration. See

CHECK CHAIN TENSION in the MAINTE-

NANCE

section.

S Cut wood only. Do not cut metal, plas-

tics, maso nry, no n-wood building ma-

terials, etc.

S Stop the s aw if the chain strikes a for-

eign object. Inspect the saw and repair

parts as necess ary.

S Keep the cha in out of dirt a nd sand.

Even a small amount o f dirt will quickly

dull a c hain and increase the possibil-

ity of kickback.

S Practice cutting a few small logs using

the following steps. This will help you

get the “feel” of using your saw before

you begin a major sawing operation.

S Squeeze the tr igger switc h and all o w

unit to reach full speed before cutting.

S Begin cutting with the saw frame

against the log.

S Keep the motor at full speed the en-

tire time you are cutting.

S Release trigger switch as soon as cut

is completed, allowing motor to stop.

S Keep the cord away from the cutting

area. Position cord so it will not be

caught on branches and the like

during cutting.

S To av oid losing control when cut is

complete, do not put pressure on

saw at end of cut.

S Stop motor before s etting saw down.

TREE FELLING TE CHNIQUES

dead branches which can fal l while cutti ng

causing serious injury. Do not cut near

buildi ngs or electr i cal wir es if you do not

know the dir ecti on of tree fall , nor cut at

night since you will not be able to see well,

nor during bad weather such as rain,

snow,strongwinds,etc.Ifthetreemakes

plany should be notifi ed immediatel y.

S Caref ull y plan your sawing operation in

advance.

S Clear the work area. You need a clear

area all around the tree so you can have

secure foo t ing.

S The chain saw operator should keep

on the uphill side of the terrain as the

tree is likely to roll or slide downhill af-

ter it is felled.

S Study t he natur al conditions that can

cause the tree to fall in a particular direc-

tion, such as:

S The wind direction and speed.

S The lean of the tree. The lean of a tree

mig ht not be appare nt due to uneven

or sloping ter rain . Use a plumb or lev-

el to determi ne the dir ecti on of tree

lean.

S Weight and branches on one side.

S Surrounding trees and obstacles.

S Look for decay and rot. If the trunk is

rotted, it can snap and fall toward the
