This will increase the risk of kickback. 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 WARNING: Read and understand this owner’s manual before operating this saw. Make certain you read and understand all Important Safety Information, pages 2 through 4. Improper use of this chain saw can cause severe injury or death from fire, electrical shock, or body contact with moving chain, or falling wood. 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. Cord Length AWG Cord Size 25 feet 16 AWG 50 feet 16 AWG 100 feet 14 AWG 150 feet 12 AWG Models EL-8: 107624-01, -02; 107625-01, -02, 111174-01 Keep cord away from cutting area. Make sure cord does not catch on branches or logs during cutting. Inspect cords often. Replace damaged cords. This chain saw is designed with an extension cord hitch that prevents the extension cord from being pulled loose during use. To use, form a loop with the end of the extension cord, insert loop into slot in rear of handle, and place loop over cord hitch (see Figure 8). Gently pull loop against cord hitch until slack is removed. Plug extension cord into chain saw cord. OILING CHAIN Manual Oil System 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 window (see Figure 9). Automatic Oil System Chain saw Model 107625-01, -02, 111174-01 is equipped with an automatic oiling system. It will provide adequate lubrication to the guide bar and saw chain. Check oil level every 15 minutes of cutting time. Oil level can be seen in oil sight window (see Figure 10). CUTTING WITH THE CHAIN SAW 1. Connect saw to extension cord. Connect extension 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 11). 4. Make sure your footing is firm. Keep feet apart. Divide your weight evenly on both feet. 5. When ready to make a cut, push the lockout button completely forward with the right thumb and squeeze the trigger (see Figure 11). 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 107705 17 OPERATING CHAIN SAW Continued 7. Guide saw using light pressure. Do not force saw. The motor will overload and can burn out. It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was intended. 8. Remove saw from a cut with saw running at full speed. Stop saw by releasing trigger. Make sure chain has stopped before setting saw down. 9. Practice until you can maintain a steady, even cutting rate.
