USING YOUR LIMBSAW
WARNING:
Never use your LIMBSAW if it is damaged, not assembled correctly, not
maintained properly, or not adjusted properly. For correct assembly of the chain
and bar please follow the instructions in this Installation and Operation Manual.
When driving tractor or loader across pastures and uneven
terrain, pin the boom closed into the Travel position. Driving
with the saw open in the operating position may damage pins,
shock indicator & safety cable.
Use caution when driving under power lines and low hanging
branches. Adjust the height of your saw by raising and
lowering your loader, or adjusting the tilt angle of the bucket,
to clear obstacles that could potentially get caught on your saw
during Travel.
To begin a cut, position the saw on a branch and lower your
loader until you see the yellow indicator shaft protrude from the
back of the shock cylinder. This means that the required weight
of the saw is resting on the limb to make a clean cut. Do not
lower your loader to assist in making the cut. The weight of the
saw is all that is required to make each cut. On large limbs, it
may be necessary to lower your loader to complete a cut. If this is the circumstance, always stop the saw first.
Lower your loader until you see the yellow indicator shaft protrude from the back of the shock cylinder again
and then resume cutting.
When cutting large or heavy limbs, make several cuts to remove weight from
the limb before making the final cut at the base. This will minimize the chance
of the bark from peeling and also decrease the chance of the limb rolling and
pinching the saw. As you gain experience with your saw, you will become more
perceptive at judging how many cuts it will take to remove the amount of weight
needed for a clean, easy final cut. When in doubt, make an extra cut.
NOTE: Always keep the chain, bar and sprocket clean. Replace worn out parts as needed. Always
operate with a sharp chain.
Cutting with a dull chain will increase the time it takes to cut and will cause vibration of your unit and
excessive wear on your unit. Loose hardware on your unit will also cause vibration.
IF burn marks appear on the wood that you are cutting, or soft, easy to cut wood is hard to cut, it’s
time to replace or sharpen your chain.
Follow manufacturer’s maintenance and sharpening instructions for the chain. Always keep chain at
proper tension. Check all nuts, bolts and screws before each use and tighten as necessary.
