2. Turn adjusting screw clockwise until all slack is

out of chain (see Figure 5).

Note:

There should

be no gap between side links of chain and bot-

tom of guide bar (see Figure 6).

3. Wearing protective gloves, move chain around

guide bar. Chain should move freely. If chain

does not move freely, loosen chain by turning

adjusting screw counterclockwise.

4. After chain tension is correct, tighten guide bar

nuts ﬁrmly. If not, guide bar will move and loosen

chain tension. This will increase the risk of kick-

back. This can also damage saw.

Note:

A new

chain will stretch. Check new chain after ﬁrst

few minutes of operation. Allow chain to cool

down. Readjust chain tension.

FILLING OIL TANK

1. Remove oil cap.

2. Fill oil tank with SAE #30 motor oil.

Note:

For

temperatures below 30°F, use SAE #10 oil. For

temperatures above 75°F, use SAE #40 oil.

3. Replace oil cap at once. Tighten oil cap ﬁrmly for

good seal. This will avoid oil seepage from tank.

4. Wipe off excess oil.

Note:

It is normal for oil to seep when saw is not in

use. Empty oil tank after each use to prevent seepage.

OPERATING CHAIN SAW

EXTENSION CORDS

Use proper extension cords with this saw. Use only

extension cords marked for outdoor use. The cord

must be marked with sufﬁx W or W-A following the

cord type designation.

Example:

SJTW-A or SJTW.

Use proper sized cord with this saw. Cord must be

heavy enough to carry current needed. An undersized

cord will cause voltage drop at saw. Saw will lose

power and overheat. Follow cord size requirements

listed below.

WARNING: Read and understand this

owner’s manual before operating this saw.

Make certain you read and understand all

OILING CHAIN

Always check oil level before using saw. Do not attempt

to operate the oil system while saw is in operation. To oil

chain, press squeeze bulb. Oil will feed onto the guide

bar and chain. Press squeeze bulb at least once before

each cut. Check oil level often by looking at oil sight

level hole. Oil sight level hole is on left side of saw, be-

tween front handle and front hand guard.

CUTTING WITH THE CHAIN SAW

1. Connect saw to extension cord. Connect exten-

sion cord to power supply.

2. Make sure section of log to be cut is not laying

on ground. This will keep chain from touching

ground as it cuts through log. Touching ground

with moving chain will dull chain.

3. Use both hands to grip saw. Always use left hand

to grip front handle and right hand to grip rear

handle. Use ﬁrm grip. Thumbs and ﬁngers must

wrap around saw handles (see Figure 9).

4. Make sure your footing is ﬁrm. Keep feet apart.

Divide your weight evenly on both feet.

5. When ready to make a cut, press in switch lock-

out with right thumb and squeeze trigger (see

Figure 9). This will turn saw on. Releasing trigger

will turn saw off. Make sure saw is running at full

speed before starting a cut.

6. When starting a cut, place moving chain against

wood. Hold saw ﬁrmly in place to avoid possible

bouncing or skating (sideways movement) of saw.

Continued

Keep cord away from cutting area. Make sure cord

does not catch on branches or logs during cutting.

Inspect cords often. Replace damaged cords.

The extension cord may come undone from the power

cord during use. To avoid this, make a knot with the

two cords as shown in Figure 7.
