C) Instructions on the safe use of the chainsaw

ATTENTION: Read the operating instructions carefully and familiarise

yourself in the correct use of the chainsaw before using it for the first time.

Use only genuine Lawn Star (Pty) Ltd. replacement parts when servicing or repairing

the unit. These parts are listed in the operating instructions and are available from

your supplying dealer or service agent.

Repairs may only be performed by authorised service agents.

Never carry or suspend the chainsaw by the electrical supply cable. Do not use the

cable to pull the plug from the socket. Protect the cable from heat, oil and sharp

edges.

Check the extension cable and supply cable before every use and replace it if worn or

damaged. Keep the handles dry and free of oil and grease.

Remove the plug from the socket when replacing the chain or bar.

Avoid accidental starting. Do not hold your finger on the switch when carrying the

chainsaw when it is connected to the power source. Ensure that the switch is off

before inserting the plug into the socket.

Damaged switches must be replaced by an authorised service agent. Do not use the

chainsaw if the switch is faulty.

Avoid dangerous environments. Do not use the unit in poor light or in damp or wet

locations. Do not use in the rain. Do not over-reach. Ensure good footing and balance

are maintained.

Check the chainsaw for damage before every use. Pay special attention to the chain-

bar and chain. If any part is damaged or worn, repair or replace before operation.

Always hold the chainsaw firmly with both hands while working with it.

No other person may be within the working range of the chainsaw.

The chainsaw must be disconnected from the power supply before adjusting the chain

tension, exchanging the chain or carrying out any maintenance or repair on it.

Disconnect from the plug!

When not in use put the chainsaw down in such a manner that there is no risk of

injury.

Always use the chain bar cover when transporting the chainsaw.

When switching on the chainsaw, ensure that you hold it firmly with both hands. The

chain and bar must be free.

Before starting work ensure good footing.

Disconnect the plug immediately should the power cable be damaged or cut.

Never cut with the tip of the bar –the chainsaw may recoil (“kick-back”)

Do not use the chainsaw near combustible gases or dust –danger of explosion.

The chainsaw may only be connected to socket outlets which are protected by a

Residual Current Device (RCD) with a tripping current of not more than 30 mA.

Fully unwind the extension cable before use.

The chainsaw may only be used with all safety guards and features completely

assembled. Ensure all screws and nuts are properly tightened before use.

Switch the chainsaw off immediately if you notice any changes in the machine.

Always have a first-aid kit at hand in case of accidents.

If the chain comes into contact with soil, stones, nails or other foreign objects, stop

the chainsaw immediately and check the chain as well as the bar.

Never leave the chainsaw unsupervised.

Ensure that no chain oil penetrates into the soil or sewage. Always place the

chainsaw on something that will absorb any oil dripping from the bar or chain.

Switch off the chainsaw immediately if it becomes blocked. Visually inspect the

chainsaw for damage. Note, if the chainsaw is damaged, repairs and servicing must

only be performed by authorised dealers and service agents.

Never remove any of its components and never use a damaged or incomplete

machine. Never modify any of the machine components. DO NOT fasten tools or

accessories to the chainsaw that are not specified by the chainsaw manufacturer.

Do not use your chainsaw for any jobs other than those for which it was intended.

ATTENTION: Safety features are designed to protect you against injuries and must

not be altered or circumvented.

D) Warning: Danger of recoil (“kickback”)

WARNING: Kickback may occur when the motor is running and the nose

or tip of the guide bar touches an object, or when the wood closes in and

pinches the saw chain in the cut. Top contact in some cases may cause a

lightning fast reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back towards

the operator. Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may

push the guide bar rapidly back towards the operator. Either of these

reactions may cause the operator to lose control of the saw which could

result in the chainsaw being flung upwards at high speed towards the

person holding the chainsaw and may cause serious personal injury.

Do not rely exclusively on the safety devices built into your saw. As a chainsaw user

you should take several steps to keep cutting jobs free from accident or injury.

With a basic understanding of kickback you can reduce or eliminate the element of

surprise. Sudden surprise contributes to accidents:

1. Do not touch wood, branches or any other obstruction with the chain bar tip.

2. If possible, use a log stand for cutting loose logs.

3. Always be aware of the bar tip in relation to other objects.

4. Begin cutting only once the chainsaw is at operating speed. Never start the

machine while the chain rests on an object.

5. Piercing cuts with the bar tip may only be performed by trained and

experienced operators.

6. Keep a good grip on the saw with both hands, the right hand on the rear

handle, and the left hand on the front handle, when the motor is running. Use a

firm grip with thumbs and fingers encircling the chainsaw handles. A firm grip

will help you reduce kickback and maintain control of the saw.

7. Make certain that the area in which you are cutting is free from obstructions.

8. Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.

9. Ensure the chain is always sharp. Follow the manufacturers maintenance

instructions for saw chain.

10.Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer or the

equivalent.

E) Instructions on safe working techniques

Before starting to work ensure that there is sufficient light.

Always maintain a normal body posture when operating the device. Always keep your

balance.

Do not work with your body bent forwards.

Ensure that you are standing securely and do not work on snow, ice or newly barked

wood. Danger of slipping!

Do not work on ladders, scaffolding, or walls. Never climb on a tree to cut wood.

Do not use the chainsaw above shoulder height.

Use the chainsaw only to cut wood. Do not cut plastics or other material.

Ensure that the wood cannot twist while it is being cut.

Watch out for splintering wood. While you are sawing you may be injured by flying

wood chips.

Do not use the chainsaw to lever or move the wood.

Only cut with the lower section of the saw. The saw will be repulsed towards you if

you try and cut with the upper section of the saw.

Ensure that the wood is free from of stones, nails and other foreign objects.

Keep the running chainsaw from touching the ground or wire fences. Do not cut thin

wood or timber that is already sawn into small pieces.

ASSEMBLY OF CHAINSAW

Your chainsaw package contains the following items as illustrated in figure 1.

Assembling the guide bar and the saw chain:

CAUTION: The saw chain has very sharp edges. Always use safety gloves when assembling

the chain.

Assembly of the guide bar and chain does not require any tools.

1. Ensure the chainsaw is unplugged from the mains supply.

2. Place the chainsaw on a stable surface.

3. Pull the guard towards the front handle to check that the chain brake is off (Fig.2).

4. Loosen the chain cover nut (Fig.3) by turning it anti-clockwise and remove the chain cover.

5. Place the chain on the bar (Fig.4) considering the running direction of the chain. The cutting

teeth on the upper side of the bar must point in the forward direction (Fig.4).

6. Rotate the chain tensioning screw anti-clockwise (Fig.5)to move the tensioning lug to the

rear half of the slot.

7. Assemble bar and chain onto chainsaw and check that all chain links are seated correctly in

the bar’s groove and that the chain is correctly fitted around the driving sprocket (Fig.6).

8. Replace the cover and lightly fasten the cover by turning chain cover nut clockwise (Fig.7).

9. Adjust the chain tension until ¾ of the tooth can be seen when pulling the chain by hand

(Fig.8). The the chain tension is adjusted by rotating chain tensioning screw clockwise

(Fig.9) . When the correct tension is achieved fully tighten the chain cover nut by rotating it

clockwise (Fig.7).

Note: The chainsaw must never be operated without chain oil as this will cause damage to the

chain, bar, and motor. No claims under warranty can be accepted if damage occurs due to the

chainsaw being operated without chain oil.

Tensioning the chain:

Note: before you start tensioning the chain:

Make sure that all the chain links are seated inside the groove of the guide bar.

The chain cover nut (Fig.1 No.7) may need to be loosened slightly to allow the

guide bar to be adjusted.

1. Tension the chain by rotating chain tensioning screw clockwise (Fig.9).

2. Make sure you don’t tension the chain too tightly. When cold, it should be possible to lift the

chain in the middle of the guide bar approximately 3-5 mm (Fig.8). To decrease the chain

tension, turn the chain tensioning screw anti-clockwise.

Fig.5

Fig.6

Fig.7

Fig.8

Fig.9

3. Once the correct chain tension is achieved, ensure the chain cover nut is fully fastened by

turning clockwise.

4. If necessary, readjust the tension of the chain by first loosening the chain cover, then again

adjusting the chain tension by turning the chain tensioning screw. Securely retighten the

chain cover agai.

A new chainsaw requires a running-in period of approximately 5 minutes. Chain

lubrication is very important during the running-in period. After running-in, check

tension and re-tension if necessary. The chain must be re-tensioned immediately if

it shakes or leaves the groove.

NOTE: The chain tension has a significant effect on the life of the chainsaw, and must therefore

be checked regularly. Check and readjust the tension frequently as a loose chain can easily

derail or cause rapid wear of itself and the guide bar. When the chain warms up to operating

temperature it will expand a little and must be re-tensioned. A new chain will have to be

tensioned more frequently.

If the saw chain is re-tensioned when hot, it must be loosened again when the sawing work has

been completed. Otherwise the contraction, which takes place when the chain cools off, will

result in excessively high tension.

FILLING THE OIL TANK (FIG.1 NO.2)

The chainsaw must never be operated without chain oil as this will cause damage to the

chain, bar, and motor. No claims under warranty can be accepted if damage occurs due to

the chainsaw being operated without chain oil.

Preferably use biologically-based chainsaw oil such as Lawn Star chain lube stock code

90-30000, i.e. oil which is biologically decomposable. NOTE: Do not use waste or recycled

oil that can cause damage to the oil pump.

Before filling the oil tank, remove the mains plug.

Unscrew the cap (Fig.1 No.2) and fill approximately 200ml oil into the tank using a funnel

and replace the cap securely.

The oil level can be seen through the oil indicator window (Fig.1 No15).

Remove the chain oil from the oil tank if the chainsaw is not used for a long period.

The oil tank should be emptied before the chainsaw is transported.

After use, lay the chainsaw horizontally on an absorbent surface.

BEFORE USING THE CHAINSAW

Before proceeding to your job, read “IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR

PERSONAL SAFETY” section.

Always follow the safety procedures and guidelines.

Check chainsaw for damage before starting work.

Ensure that the chain tension is correct. If the chain is too loose, it may come off during use

and lead to injuries. The chain must be replaced immediately if it is damaged.

Check the sharpness of the chain every time before using the chainsaw. A new chain must

be used if the chain is blunt.

It is recommended to first practice sawing on smaller easier-to-cut logs. This helps to get

accustomed to the chainsaw.

CONNECTING THE CHAINSAW TO POWER (Fig.3)

To prevent electrical shock hazards, use only extension cables suitable for

outdoor use, with splash-proof socket outlets, preferably protected by sensitive

Residual Current Device (RCD) with tripping current of not more than 30 mA. Use

2-core insulated cable, minimum (HO5VV-F) 2x1.0mm, in turn connected to a

suitable mains connection plug. All components should meet your national, IEC or

EN specifications. If the connection cable of this device is damaged it must be

replaced by an authorised service agent specified by the manufacturer.

This chainsaw is fitted with a strain-relief mechanism to provide extra safety and to prevent

accidental disconnection. First connect the supply plug to the extension cable, then double over

the extension cable into a loop and push this through the cable restraint. Hook the loop into the

strain-relief mechanism on the underside of the handle as shown in Figure 10.

SWITCHING ON

Using your thumb press in the “Lock-off” button (Fig.12) situated on the left side of the handle,

then activate the switch.

To switch off the chainsaw, release the switch.

Attention: The chain will immediately run at high speed when switched on. When

putting the saw down, make sure that the chain does not touch any stones, soil or

metal objects.
