WARNING

Do not mix the bar and chain oil with diesel or

kerosene as this actually reduces its lubricating

ability and does not reduce tar buildup.

We recommend the use of Cutters Edge Bar & Chain Oil for

its excellent lubricating and anti-sling properties. This oil

has been developed to provide high flash and fire points for

optimum performance during harsh fire-ground applica-

tions, with high flow properties for use even in extreme cold

temperatures. This anti-rust, anti-wear formula is recom-

mended for use on all Fire Rescue saws and other con-

ventional chainsaw.

THE FILTERS

The filter element is coated at the factory and needs no oil

prior to this first use.

THE MOMENTARY CONTACT SWITCH

The saw is now ready to start. Before starting the saw, you

should know how to stop it. The Cutters Edge Fire Rescue

Saw is equipped with a momentary contact switch that is

always in the "on" position (Fig. 11). To stop the saw, push

the momentary contact switch to the right. This kills the saw.

When released, the switch will snap back to the "on" posi-

tion automatically.

MPORTANT

Before starting the saw, it is important to note that

you should not run the saw at full throttle until after

breaking in the engine, which will be the procedure

following running-in the chain.

STARTING THE SAW

OPERATION & MAINTENANCE / 9

To start the saw, place it on the ground. If you intend to run-

n the chain at this point, you should perform these steps

outdoors or in a well-ventilated area.

NOTE:

Do not start the saw with the chain brake engaged.

Be sure the chain brake is disengaged by pulling

back the chain brake handle until it contacts the

front of the full wrap handle. (See page 8.)

Grip the top handle firmly and step on the outer edge of the

back handle (Fig. 12).

Fig. 12. Proper starting position.

COLD START

Pull out the choke knob." This automatically locks the

throttle trigger and the carburetor into their optimum

positions for starting. If you do not touch the throttle dur-

ing starting, there is no possibility of flooding.

Grasp the starter handle and pull sharply upward a few

times until the engine catches.

Push the choke in.

Pull the handle again. The engine will start.

Quickly squeeze and release the trigger to set the idle.

WARM START

(engine still warm from previous use)

1. Pull starter rope until saw starts.

*We recommend storing the saw with the choke knob

pulled out.
