SAFETY RULES  
S Always use approved hearing protection.  
Regular users should have hearing  
checked regularly as chain saw noise can  
damage hearing. Long--term exposure to  
noise can result in permanent hearing im-  
pairment.  
WARNING: Always disconnect  
spark plug wire and place wire where it can-  
not contact spark plug to prevent accidental  
starting when setting up, transporting, ad-  
justing or making repairs except carburetor  
adjustments.  
Because a chain saw is a high-speed wood-  
cutting tool, special safety precautions must  
be observed to reduce the risk of accidents.  
Careless or improper use of this tool can  
cause serious injury.  
S Keep all parts of your body away from the  
chain when the engine is running.  
S Keep children, bystanders, and animals a  
minimum of 10 meters away from the work  
area. Do not allow other people or animals  
to be near the chain saw when starting or  
operating the chain saw.  
S Do not handle or operate a chain saw  
whenyouare fatigued, ill, or upset, or if you  
have taken alcohol, drugs, or medication.  
You must be in good physical condition  
and mentally alert. Chain saw work is  
strenuous. If you have any condition that  
might be aggravated by strenuous work,  
check with your doctor before operating a  
chain saw.

should be used to stop the engine.  
CHECKING, MAINTAINING AND  
SERVICING CHAIN SAW SAFETY  
EQUIPMENT  
WARNING: Never use a chain saw  
with defective safety equipment. Safety  
equipment must be inspected and main-  
tained. If your chain saw does not pass in-  
spection, take the saw to your nearest ser-  
vice dealer for repair.  
S Chain brake. Brush off any wood dust,  
resin and dirt from the chain brake and  
clutch drum. Dirt and wear can impair op-  
eration of the brake. For additional infor-  
mation, see OPERATING YOUR UNIT  
section.  
CHAIN SAW SAFETY EQUIPMENT  
NOTE: In this section, the safety features of  
the chain saw and their function are explained.  
For inspection and maintenance, see instruc-  
tions in the CHECKING, MAINTAINING AND  
SERVICING CHAIN SAW SAFETY EQUIP-  
MENT section. See instructions under the  
WHAT IS WHAT? section, to find where these  
parts are located on your chain saw. The life  
span of the machine can be reduced and the  
risk of accidents can increase if machine  
maintenance is not carried out correctly and  
if service and/or repairs are not carried out  
professionally. If you need further informa-  
tion, please contact your nearest service  
dealer.  
S Throttle trigger lock -out. Check that the  
throttle trigger can not beoperated until the  
throttle lock--out is pressed.  
S Chain catcher. Check that the chain  
catcher is not damaged and is firmly at-  
tached to the body of the chain saw.  
S Vibration damping system. Regularly  
check the vibration damping units for  
cracks or deformation. Make sure the  
vibration damping units are securely at-  
tached to the engine unit and handle unit.  
S ON/STOP switch. Start the engine and  
make sure the engine stops when you  
move the ON/STOP switch to the STOP  
position.  
S Chain brake. Your chain saw is equipped  
with a chain brake that is designed to stop  
the chain from moving.  
MAINTAIN YOUR SAW IN GOOD  
WORKING ORDER  
S Have all chain saw service performed by a  
qualified service dealer with the exception of  
the items listed in the maintenance section of  
this manual. For example, if improper tools  
are used to remove or hold the flywheel  
when servicing the clutch, structural damage  
to the flywheel can occur and cause the fly-  
wheel to burst.  
WARNING: The chain brake is de-  
signed to stop the chain immediately if you  
get a kickback. The chain brake reduces the  
risk of accidents, but only you can prevent  
them. DO NOT ASSUMETHAT THE CHAIN  
BRAKE WILL PROTECT YOU IN THE  
EVENT OF A KICKBACK.  
S Throttle trigger lock -out. The throttle  
lock--out is designed to prevent accidental  
operation of the throttle trigger.  
S Chain catcher. The chain catcher is de-  
signed to catch the saw chain if it breaks.  
S Vibration damping system. Your chain  
saw is equipped with a vibration damping  
system that is designed to minimize vibra-  
tion and make operation easier.  
SAFETY NOTICE: Exposure to vibrations  
through prolonged use of gasoline powered  
hand tools could cause blood vessel or nerve  
damage in the fingers, hands, and joints of peo-  
ple prone to circulation disorders or abnormal  
swellings. Prolonged use in cold weather has  
been linked to blood vessel damage in other-  
wise healthy people. If symptoms occur such  
as numbness, pain, loss of strength, change in  
skin color or texture, or loss of feeling in the fin-  
gers, hands, or joints, discontinue the use of  
this tool and seek medical attention. An anti-  
vibration system does not guarantee the avoid-  
S Make certain the saw chain stops moving  
when the throttle trigger is released. For  
correction, refer to CARBURETOR AD-  
JUSTMENTS.  
S Never modify your saw in any way. Use  
only attachments supplied or specifically  
recommended by the manufacturer.  
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 McCullochR accessories and re-  
placement parts as recommended.  
HANDLE FUEL WITH CAUTION  
S 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 nosmoking, openflames,  
or work that could cause sparks. Allow en-  
gine to cool before refueling.

S Mix and pour fuel in an outdoor area on bare  
ground; store fuel in a cool, dry, well venti-  
lated place; and use an approved, marked  
container for all fuel purposes. Wipe up all  
fuel spills before starting saw.  
ickback Path  
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 a  
non-combustible area, not on dry leaves,  
straw, paper, etc. Slowly remove fuel cap  
and refuel unit.  
S Storetheunit and fuel in an area where fuel  
vapors cannot reach sparks or open  
flames from water heaters, electric motors  
or switches, furnaces, etc.

REDUCE THE CHANCE OF  
KICKBACK  
KICKBACK  
S Recognize that kickback can happen.  
With a basic understanding of kickback,  
you can reduce the element of surprise  
which contributes to accidents.  
S Never let themoving 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 avoid any  
obstruction that your saw chain could hit  
while you are cutting through a particular log  
or branch.  
S Keep your saw chain sharp and properly  
tensioned. A loose or dull chain can increase  
the chance of kickback occurring. Follow  
manufacturer’s chain sharpening and main-  
tenance instructions. Check tension at regu-  
lar intervals with the engine stopped, never  
with the engine running. Make sure the bar  
clamp nuts are securely tightened after ten-  
sioning the chain.  
S Begin and continue cutting at full speed. If  
the chain is moving at a slower speed, there  
is greater chance of kickback occurring.  
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 into chain.  
S Use the Reduced--Kickback Guide Bar  
and Low--Kickback Chain specified for  
your saw.  
WARNING: Avoid kickback which  
can result in serious injury. Kickback is the  
backward, upwardor sudden forwardmotion  
of the guide bar occurring when the saw  
chain near the upper tip of theguide bar con-  
tacts any object such as a log or branch, or  
when the wood closes in and pinches the  
saw chain in the cut. Contacting a foreignob-  
ject in the wood can also result in loss of  
chain 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 can  
cause the chain to dig into the object,  
which stops the chain for an instant. The  
result is a lightning fast, reverse reaction  
which kicks the guide bar up and back to-  
ward the operator.  
S Pinch-Kickback can occur when the the  
wood closes in and pinches the moving  
saw chain in the cut along the top of the  
guide bar and the saw chain is suddenly  
stopped. This sudden stopping of the  
chain results in a reversal of the chain  
force used to cut wood and causes the  
saw to move in the opposite direction of the  
chain rotation. The saw is driven straight  
back toward the operator.  
S Pull-In can occur when the moving chain  
contacts a foreign object in the wood in the  
cut along the bottom of the guide bar and the  
saw chain is suddenly stopped. This sudden  
stopping pulls the saw forward and away  
from the operator and could easily cause the  
operator to lose control of the saw.  
MAINTAIN CONTROL  
Avoid Pinch -Kickback:  
Stand to the lef
the saw  
S Be extremely aware of situations or obstruc-  
tions that can cause material to pinch the top  
of or otherwise stop the chain.  
S Do 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.  
Never reverse  
hand positions

S Keep a good, firm grip on the saw with both  
hands when the engine is running and don’t  
let go. A firm grip will help you reduce kick-  
back and maintain control of the saw. Keep  
the fingers of your left hand encircling and  
your left thumb under the front handlebar.  
Keep your right hand completely around the  
rear handle whether your are right handed or  
left handed. Keep your left arm straight with  
the elbow locked.  
S Position your left hand on the front handle-  
bar so it is in a straight line with your right  
hand on the rear handle when making  
bucking cuts. Never reverse right and left  
hand positions for any type of cutting.  
S Standwith your weight evenly balancedon  
both feet.  
Wood To Gradually  
Ride Into Cutter  
S Handguard, designed to reduce the chance  
of your left hand contacting the chain if your  
hand slips off the front handlebar.  
S Position of front and rear handlebars, de-  
signed with distance between handles and  
“in-line” with each other. The spread and  
“in-line” position of the hands provided by  
this design work together to give balance  
and resistance in controlling the pivot of  
the saw back toward the operator if kick-  
back occurs.  
S Stand slightly to the left side of the saw to  
keep your body from being in a direct line  
with the cutting chain.  
WARNING: DO NOT RELY UPON  
ANY OF THE DEVICES BUILT INTO YOUR  
SAW. YOU SHOULD USE THE SAW  
PROPERLY AND CAREFULLY TO AVOID  
KICKBACK. Reduced--kickback guide bars  
and low--kickback saw chains reduce the  
chance and magnitude of kickback and are  
recommended. Your saw has a low kickback  
chain and bar as original equipment. Repairs  
on a chain brake should be made by an au-  
thorized servicing dealer. Take your unit to  
the place of purchase if purchased from a  
servicing dealer, or to the nearest authorized  
master service dealer.  
S Tip contact in some cases may cause a light-  
ning fast reverse REACTION, kicking the  
guide bar up and back toward the operator.  
S Pinching the saw chain along the top of the  
guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly  
back toward the operator.  
S Do not overreach. You could be drawn or  
thrown off balance and lose control of the  
saw.  
S Do not cut above shoulder height. It is diffi-  
cult to maintain control of saw above  
shoulder height.I  
KICKBACK SAFETY FEATURES  
WARNING: The following features are  
included on your saw to help reduce the hazard  
of kickback; however, such features will not to-  
tally eliminate this dangerous reaction. As a  
chain saw user, do not rely only on safety de-  
vices. You must follow all safety precautions,  
instructions, and maintenance in this manual to  
help avoid kickback and other forces 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 the  
bar tip. A Reduced--Kickback Guide Bar has  
been demonstrated to significantly reduce  
the number and seriousness of kickbacks.  
S Either of these reactions may cause you to  
lose control of the saw which could result  
in serious injury. Do not rely exclusively  
uponthesafety devices built into your saw.

Adjusting the tension:  
Chain tension is very important. Chains  
stretch during use. This is especially true  
during the first few times you use your saw.  
Always check chain tension each time you  
use and refuel your saw.  
WARNING: Muffler is very hot during  
and after use. Do not touch the muffler or al-  
low combustible material such as dry grass  
or fuel to do so.  
OPERATING YOUR UNIT  
filled. Lack of oil will quickly ruin the bar and  
chain. Too little oil will cause overheating  
shown by smoke coming from the chain and/  
or discoloration of the bar. Only use Bar and  
Chain Oil for bar and chain lubrication.  
BEFORE STARTING ENGINE  
WARNING: Be sure to read the fuel  
information in the safety rules before you be-  
gin. If you donot understand the safety rules,  
do not attempt to fuel your unit. Contact an  
authorized service dealer.  
FUELING ENGINE  
BAR AND CHAIN LUBRICATION  
The bar and chain require continuous lubri-  
cation. Lubrication is provided by the auto-  
matic oiler system when the oil tank is kept  
WARNING: Remove fuel cap slowly  
when refueling.  
This engine is certified to operate on unleaded  
gasoline. Before operation, gasoline must be  
8
 
mixed with a good quality 2-cycle air-cooled  
engine oil designed to be mixed at a ratio of  
40:1. A 40:1 ratio is obtained by mixing 0,125  
liter of oil with 5 liters of unleaded gasoline. DO  
NOT USE automotive or boat oil. These oils  
will cause engine damage. When mixing fuel  
follow the instructions printed on the container.  
Always read and follow the safety rules relating  
to fuel before fueling your unit.  
NOTE:Do not cut material with the choke/fast  
idle lever at the FULL CHOKE position.  
STARTING A COLD ENGINE (or a  
warm engine after running out of  
fuel)  
NOTE:Inthefollowing steps, when the cho-  
ke/fast idle lever is pulled out to the full ex-  
tent, the correct throttle setting for starting is  
set automatically.  
IMPORTANT  
Experience indicates that alcohol blended fuels  
(called gasohol or using ethanol or methanol)  
can attract moisture which leads to separation  
and formation of acids during storage. Acidic  
gas can damage the fuel system of an engine  
while in storage. To avoid engine problems,  
empty the fuel system before storage for 30  
days or longer. Drain the gas tank, start the en-  
gine and let it run until the fuel lines and carbu-  
retor are empty. Use fresh fuel next season.  
Never use engine or carburetor cleaner prod-  
ucts in the fuel tank or permanent damage may  
occur.

triggered. With a broken brake band, the chain  
brake will not stop the chain. The chain brake  
should be replaced by an authorized service  
dealer if any part is worn to less than 0,02(0,5  
mm) thick. Repairs on a chain brake should be  
made by an authorized service dealer. Take  
your unit to the place of purchase if purchased  
from a servicing dealer, or to the nearest autho-  
rized master service dealer.  
S This saw is equipped with a chain brake.  
The brake is designed to stop the chain if  
kickback occurs.  
S The inertia activated chain brake is activated  
if the front hand guard is pushed forward, ei-  
ther manually or by centrifugal force.  
Inertia activating function control  
WARNING: When performing the fol-  
lowing procedure, the engine must be turned  
off.  
Grip the rear handle with your right hand and  
the front handle with your left hand. Hold the  
chain saw approximately 35 cm above a  
stump or other wooden surface. Release  
your grip on the front handle and use the  
weight of the saw to let the top of the guide  
bar fall forward and contact the stump.  
When the tip of the bar hits the stump, the  
brake should activate.  
S If the brake is already activated, it is disen-  
gaged by pulling the front hand guard back  
toward the front handle as far as possible.  
S When cutting with the saw, the chain brake  
must be disengaged.  
CUTTING METHODS  
gine to idle. If you run the saw at full  
throttle without a cutting load, unneces-  
sary wear can occur.  
To avoid losing control when cut is com-  
plete, do not put pressure on saw at end  
of cut.  
IMPORTANT POINTS  
S Check chain tension before first use and af-  
ter 1 minute of operation. See CHAIN TEN-  
SION in the ASSEMBLY section.  
S
S Cut wood only. Do not cut metal, plastics,  
masonry, non-wood building materials, etc.  
S The bumper spike may be used as a pivot  
when making a cut.  
S Stop the saw if the chain strikes a foreign  
object. Inspect thesaw and repair parts as  
necessary.  
S Keep the chain out of dirt and sand. Evena  
small amount of dirt will quickly dull a chain  
and increase 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 major  
sawing operation.  
S Stop the engine before setting the saw down.  
TREE FELLING TECHNIQUES  
WARNING: Felling a tree requires  
chain saw skills and experience. Inexperi-  
enced users should not fell trees. Do not at-  
tempt any task that makes you feel uncom-  
fortable or unsure.  
WARNING: Do not cut near buildings  
or electrical wires if you do not know the di-  
rection of tree fall, at night since you will not  
be able to see well, or during bad weather  
such as rain, snow, or strong winds. as fall is  
unpredictable.  
Carefully plan your sawing operation in ad-  
vance. You need a clear area all around the  
tree so you can have secure footing. Check  
for broken or dead branches which can fall  
on you causing serious injury.  
S

Squeeze the throttle trigger and allow the  
engine to reach full speed before cutting.  
Begin cutting with the saw frame  
against the log.  
Keep the engine at full speed the entire  
time you are cutting.  
Allow the chain to cut for you. Exert only  
light downward pressure.  
Release the throttle trigger as soon as  
the cut is completed, allowing the en-

Natural conditions that can cause a tree to  
fall in a particular direction include:

cut  
S The wind direction and speed.  
S The lean of the tree. The lean of a tree  
might not be apparent due to uneven or  
sloping terrain. Use a plumb or level 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 is rotted,  
it can snap and fall toward the operator.  
Make sure there is enough room for the tree to  
fall. Maintain a distance of 2-1/2 tree lengths  
from the nearest person or other objects. En-  
gine noise can drown out a warning call.  
Remove dirt, stones, loose bark, nails, staples,  
and wire from the tree where cuts are to be  
made.  
Closing  
of notch  
NOTE: Before felling cut is complete, use  
wedges to open the cut when necessary to  
controlthedirectionof fall. To avoid kickback  
or chain damage, use wood or plastic  
wedges, but never steel or iron wedges.  
S Be alert to signs that the tree is ready to fall:  
cracking sounds, widening of the felling cut,  
or movement in the upper branches.  
S As tree starts to fall, stop saw, put it down,  
and get away quickly on your planned re-  
treat path.  
Plan a clear retreat path  
S DO NOT cut down a partially fallen tree with  
your saw. Be extremely cautious with par-  
tially fallen trees that may be poorly sup-  
ported. When a tree doesn’t fall completely,  
set the saw aside and pull down the tree with  
a cable winch, block and tackle, or tractor.

CUTTING A FALLEN TREE  
(BUCKING)  
FELLING LARGE TREES  
Bucking is the term used for cutting a fallen  
tree to the desired log length.  
(15 cm in diameter or larger)  
The notch method is used to fell large trees.  
A notch is cut on the side of the tree in thede-  
sired direction of fall. After a felling cut is  
made on the opposite side of tree, the tree  
will tend to fall into the notch.  
WARNING: Do not stand on the log  
being cut. Any portion can roll causing loss  
of footing and control. Do not stand downhill  
of the log being cut.  
NOTCH CUT AND FELLING THE  
TREE  
Important points  
S Cut only one log at a time.  
S Make notch cut by cutting the top of the  
notch first. Cut through 1/3 of the diameter  
of the tree. Next complete the notch by cut-  
ting the bottom of the notch. See illustra-  
tion. Once the notch is cut remove the  
notch of wood from the tree.  
S Cut shattered wood very carefully; sharp  
pieces of woodcould beflung towardoper-  
ator.  
S Use a sawhorse to cut small logs. Never  
allow another person to hold the log while  
cutting and never hold the log with your leg  
or foot.  
S Do not cut in an area where logs, limbs,  
and roots are tangled. Drag the logs into a  
clear area before cutting by pulling out ex-  
posed and cleared logs first.  
Final cut here. 5 cm above  
center of notch.

TYPES OF CUTTING USED FOR  
BUCKING  
Notch  
5 cm  
WARNING: If saw becomes pinched  
or hung in a log, don’t try to force it out. You  
can lose control of the saw resulting in injury  
and/or damage to the saw. Stop the saw,  
drive a wedge of plastic or wood into the cut  
until the saw can be removed easily. Restart  
the saw and carefully reenter the cut. Do not  
attempt torestart your saw whenit is pinched  
or hung in a log.  
Second cut  
S After removing the wood from the notch,  
make the felling cut on the opposite side of  
the notch. This is done by making a cut about  
5 cm higher than the center of the notch.  
This will leave enough uncut wood between  
the felling cut and the notch to form a hinge.  
This hinge will help prevent the tree from fall-  
ing in the wrong direction.  
Turn saw OFF and use a plastic or  
wooden wedge to force cut open.

IMPORTANT POINTS  
BUCKING WITHOUT A  
S Watch out for springpoles. Use extreme  
caution when cutting small size limbs. Slen-  
der material may catch the saw chain and be  
whipped toward you or pull you off balance.  
S Be alert for springback. Watch out for  
branches that are bent or under pressure.  
Avoid being struck by the branch or the  
saw when the tension in the wood fibers is  
released.  
SUPPORT  
S Overcut through 1/3 of the diameter of the  
log.  
S Roll the log over and finish with a second  
overcut.  
S Give special attention to logs under strain  
to prevent the saw from pinching. Make  
the first cut on the pressure side to relieve  
the stress on the log.  
S Keep a clear work area. Frequently clear  
branches out of the way to avoid tripping  
over them.  
BUCKING USING A LOG OR SUP-  
PORT STAND  
S Remember your first cut is always on the  
pressure side of the log.  
LIMBING  
S Always limb atreeafter it is cut down. Only  
then can limbing be done safely and prop-  
erly.  
S Your first cut should extend 1/3 of the  
diameter of the log.  
S Finish with your second cut.  
S Leave the larger limbs underneath the  
felled tree to support the tree as you work.  
S Start at base of the felled tree and work to-  
ward the top, cutting branches and limbs.  
Remove small limbs with one cut.  
S Keep the tree between you and the chain  
as much as possible.

Place gauge tool on cutter.  
If the depth gauge is higher than the  
depth gauge tool, file it level to the top of  
the depth gauge tool.  
S
Maintain rounded front corner of  
depth gauge with a flat file.  
NOTE: The very top of the depth  
gauge should be flat with the front  
half rounded off with a flat file.  
S Store in a dry area out of the reach of chil-  
dren.  
S Ensure the machine is cleaned and that a  
complete service is carried out before  
long--term storage.  
S The guide bar and chain must always be  
covered with a scabbard when the machine  
is being transported or in storage in order to  
prevent accident contact with the sharp  
chain. Even a non--moving chain can cause  
serious cuts to yourself or persons you  
bump into with an exposed chain.  
If you require further assistance or are unsure  
about performing this procedure, contact your  
authorized service dealer.  
CARBURETOR ADJUSTMENT  
WARNING: The chain will be moving  
during most of this procedure. Wear your pro-  
tective equipment and observe all safety pre-  
cautions. The chain must not move at idle  
speed.  
The carburetor has been carefully set at the  
factory. Adjustments may be necessary if  
you notice any of the following conditions:  
S Chain moves at idle. See IDLE SPEED--T  
adjusting procedure.  
S Saw will not idle. See IDLE SPEED--T ad-  
justing procedure.  
CAUTION: It is important to prevent  
gum deposits from forming in essential fuel  
system parts such as the carburetor, fuel fil-  
ter, fuel hose, or fuel tank during storage. Al-  
cohol blended fuels (called gasohol or using  
ethanol or methanol) can attract moisture  
which leads to fuel mixture separation and  
formation of acids during storage. Acidic gas  
can damage the engine.  
Idle Speed-- T  
Allow engine to idle. If the chain moves, idle  
is too fast. If the enginestalls, idle is tooslow.  
Adjust speed until engine runs without chain  
movement (idle too fast) or stalling (idle too  
slow). The idle speed screw is located in the  
area above the primer bulb and is labeled T.
