* The more you know about your saw, the better. Knowing how the saw operates will give you a better understanding of how to use it safely. * It’s a deal! You take care of me – I’ll take care of you! First, consider the type and size of saw you need. There are three ranges of saws, small, medium and large. Select your saw based on the job. Saws Bar size Type work Small 8-12 inch small branches and 6-10 inch diameter trees. Medium 14-20 inch Frequent log cutting and felling of small trees 12-18 inches in diameter Large More than 20 inch Professional use – not the average consumer * First and foremost – read the instructions from the manufacturer. They will give you advice on work safe practices and preventive maintenance for keeping your saw in tip-top working order. A properly maintained saw is in itself a safety measure. A dull chain will cause you to overwork the saw. Improper chain tension can cause the chain to break and lack of bar oil will cause the bar to wear more quickly and can cause the chain to derail causing serious injury. Additionally, the saw should be adjusted so that the chain does not move when the saw is idling. * Chainsaw Owner’s Manual Read Carefully Make sure the engine is in good running order. A clean air filter, good spark plug and muffler will allow the engine to run better making your work easier. Always wear gloves or use a heavy rag when handling the chain. A sharp chain cuts wood better, but it can also inflict serious injury. *  Maintenance Frequency Clean/adjust chain tension Every use Check/service the chain oiling system Every use Tighten all hardware Every use Inspect fuel system Every use Inspect the Chain Brake Mechanism Every use Inspect the Kickback (nose) Guard Every use Clean or replace air filter Every 10 hours of use Lubricate the sprocket tip Every 10 hours of use Turn the guide bar Every 10 hours of use Inspect and clean/replace the spark plug Every 10 hours of use Inspect and clean/replace the s
