[. . . ] CHAIN LUBRICATION IMPORTANT The service life of the bar and chain depends on good lubrication. Always use chain lubricating oil of medium viscosity. We recommend special McCulloch chain lubricating oil. This results in damage to the bar, the chain and the oil pump. Refill the chain oil tank each time the saw is refuelled. To prevent possible restarting problems avoid running the fuel tank dry. NOTE: Saw chain stretches during use particularly when it is new, and it will occasionally be necessary to adjust and tighten it. FELLING TREES ­ Make sure that there are no bystanders or animals in the work area. ­ Study the direction of the fall of the tree and then plan your exit path away from the planned direction of fall. ­ Don't fell trees when there is a strong wind. 1 Clear the tree base of interfering limbs and brush. Clean the work area from stones or other objects which could damage the chain. If the tree has large protruding roots, remove them before felling (see illustrations). 2 A) Cut a felling notch (A) of 45°on the side you want the tree to fall to a depth of about one third of the trunk diameter (d). Then make a felling cut (B) about 5 cm higher than the felling notch on the opposite side of the tree. Make sure that the felling cut does not go right through the trunk. A hinge (C) must always be left to provide control over the direction of the fall. B) Use wedges to control the moment and direction of the fall. 3 When the tree starts to fall, walk away along your preplanned escape path. CUTTING FALLEN TRUNKS 4 A) Limbing thick branches. For limbing and bucking leave the lower limbs to support the log off the ground. Begin with a bottom cut made by the upper side of the bar (A); the depth of the cut should be about one third of the log diameter. [. . . ] ENGLISH - 5 The chain brake should snap into both positions. If strong resistance is felt or lever does not move into either position, DO NOT USE YOUR SAW. Take it immediately to an authorized servicing dealer. 3 CHAIN CATCHER This unit is fitted with a chain catcher below the drive spocket. This is intended to stop the rearward movement of the chain in case of breakage or if it should come out of the bar. Chain sharpening 1 Chain cutter teeth can be sharpened with a round file, as follows: CHAIN FILE MP 370 GLX 5/32" PM 320 GX 3/16" The exact chain type is marked on the bottom half of the drive link which runs inside the bar groove.
