ATTACHING EXTENSION CORD
1. To prevent disconnection of appliance
cord, secure extension cord to extension
cord retainer.
2. An extension cord retainer is supplied to
reduce strain on the power cord. To use
this feature, form a loop at the end of the
extension cable and bring this through the
opening at the bottom of the Extension
Cord Retainer, then wrap the end of the
loop around the hook and pull to tighten.
(See Fig. N)
3. Keep extension cord clear of the saw and
any obstacles at all times. Do not expose
the cord to heat, oil, water, or sharp edges.
WARNING: Never operate a Jawsaw
that is damaged or improperly adjusted
or that is not completely and securely
assembled.
Be sure that the saw chain stops moving
when the power control system triggers are
released.
Never adjust the guide bar or saw when
power cord is connected.
SWITCHING ON AND OFF
The Trigger Switch (4) is locked to prevent
accidental starting.
There are two Lock Out Buttons (2), to
allow upright (cutting down from the top)
or inverted (cutting up from the bottom)
operation.
To switch on, press either Lock Out Button
with your thumb and squeeze the Trigger
Switch (See Fig. O).
To switch off, just release the Trigger Switch.
CUTTING
Check oil level window (5) prior to starting and
regularly during operation. Refill oil when oil
level is low.
If operating with a newly replaced Saw Chain
(11), check the chain tension around every 10
minutes during operation. Always hold the
Front Handle (7) firmly when cutting
(See Fig. P1, P2)
1. Connect the JawSaw and extension cord to
a power outlet.
2. Use both hands to grip saw firmly. Always
use your left hand (I) to grip the front
handle and your right hand (II) to grip the
Rear Handle(3). Thumbs and fingers must
wrap around saw handles (See Fig. P1, P2).
3.
IMPORTANT: Make sure your
footing is firm and stable. Do not use
the JawSaw while standing on piles of
branches or while standing on a ladder.
HINT: When cutting branches which are
lying on the ground, place one foot on the
branch to prevent limb from moving
(See Fig. Q).
WARNING! Do not put your foot in
the Jaw teeth, keep your foot a safe
distance from the tool. (See Fig. Q)
4. Position the tool with the Jaw placed over
the desired branch to be cut.
WARNING: DO NOT force the cut.
Let the Saw Chain pull through the
wood.
WARNING: When starting the saw
make sure the chain is not in contact
with the limb or branch to be cut.
5. Switch on the tool.
6. Push the Rear Handle towards the Front
Handle to complete the cut.
7. Switch off the tool after the Guide Bar and
Saw Chain have returned to their starting
position.
WARNING: When completing the
cut (step 6 above) do not push the
handle forcefully, let the spinning chain pull
itself through the wood.
Using too much force on the rear handle
when cutting can overload the tools motor.
CAUTION: At the end of each cut be
prepared to support the tools weight.
TRIMMING BRANCHES:
Before cutting any branch, you must consider
the following:
1. Is the branch heavy, will it damage
anything when it falls?
• Large branches should be cut in small
sections starting at the farthest end from
the tree.
• Always check where the branch will fall
BEFORE commencing the cut.
• Never stand under a branch being cut.
