CHECKING THE AUTOMATIC OILER
The JawSaw uses a much lower chain speed
than a conventional chainsaw so it needs
much less oil.
However is it very important that it always has
oil.
Check the oil tank window and refill as
necessary.
During operation, periodically check the
chain and bar. A slight oil presence should be
visible. If the chain and bar appear completely
dry, then remove the bar and chain (see
previous section) to ensure the bar oil hole is
not blocked.
If the oil hole is clear, there is oil in the tank
and still no oiling of the chain is visible –
contact Worx customer service.
OPERATION
PREPARE YOUR JAWSAW FOR USE
WARNING: Read and understand
all instructions. Failure to follow all
instructions listed may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.
WARNING: Sharp moving blade.
To prevent accidental operation,
ensure that the tool is disconnected from
the power source before performing the
following operations, failure to do this
could result in serious personal injury.
CAUTION: Sharp moving blade.
Always wear protective gloves
when installing or removing the chain,
the chain is sharp and can cut you when
it is not running.
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 cable hook and suspend in
the tension relief at the hook. (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 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 (See Fig. O).
To switch off, just release the trigger.
CUTTING
Check oil level window (5) prior to starting and
regularly during operation. Refill oil when oil
level is low.
Check newly replaced chain tension approx.
every 10 minutes during operation.
Always hold secondary handle firmly when
cutting (See Fig. P1, P2)
1. Connect saw and extension cord to power.
2. Use both hands to grip saw firmly. Always
use left hand (1) to grip front handle and
right hand (2) to grip the rear handle.
Thumbs and fingers must wrap around
saw handles (See Fig. P1, P2).
3. WARNING: 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 limb to be cut.
WARNING: DO NOT force the cut.
Let the chain pull through the wood.
