1. For Safe Operation
1. Never operate a chain saw when you are
fatigued, ill, or upset, or under the
influence of medication that may make
you drowsy, or if you are under the
influence of alcohol or drugs.
8. Before you start the engine, make sure
the saw chain is not contacting anything.
9. Always carry the chain saw with the
engine stopped, the guide bar and saw
chain to the rear, and the muffler away
from your body.
2. Use safety footwear, snug fitting clothing
and eye, hearing and head protection
devices.
10. Always inspect the chain saw before
each use for worn, Ioose, or changed
parts. Never operate a chain saw that is
damaged, improperly adjusted, or is not
completely and securely assembled. Be
sure that the saw chain stops moving
when the throttle control trigger is
released.
3. Always use caution when handling fuel.
Wipe up all spills and then move the
chain saw at least ten(10) feet(three(3)
m) from the fueling point before starting
the engine.
3a) Eliminate all sources of sparks or
flame (ie. smoking, open flames, or
work that can cause sparks) in the
areas where fuel is mixed, poured, or
stored.
11. All chain saw service, other than the
items listed in the Operator’s Manual,
should be performed by competent chain
saw service personnel. (e.g., if improper
tools are used to remove the flywheel, or
if an improper tool is used to hold the
flywheel in order to remove the clutch,
structural damage to the flywheel could
occur which could subsequently cause
the flywheel to disintegrate).
3b) Do not smoke while handling fuel or
while operating the chain saw.
4. Do not allow other persons to be near
the chain saw when starting the engine
or cutting a wood. Keep bystanders and
animals out of the work area. Children,
pets, and bystanders should be a
minimum of thirty(30) feet away when
you start or operate the chain saw.
12. Always shut off the engine before setting
it down.
13. Use extreme caution when cutting small
size brush and saplings because slender
material may catch the saw chain and be
whipped toward you or pull you off
balance.
5. Never start cutting until you have a clear
work area, secure footing, and planned
retreat path from the falling tree.
6. Always hold the chain saw firmly with
both hands when the engine is running.
Use a firm grip with thumb and fingers
encircling the chain saw handles.
14. When cutting a limb that is under
tension, be alert for spring back so that
you will not be struck when the tension in
the wood fibers is released.
7. Keep all parts of your body away from
the saw chain when the engine is
running.
15. Keep the handles dry, clean and free of
oil or fuel mixture.

16. Operate the chain saw only in well
ventilated areas. Never start or run the
engine inside a closed room or building.
Exhaust fumes contain dangerous
carbon monoxide.
19. When transporting your chain saw, make
sure the appropriate guide bar scabbard
is in place.
20. This chain saw is equipped with a spark
arrester built-in muffler. Periodically
check the arrester to keep it in good
order.
17. Do not operate a chain saw in a tree
unless specially trained to do so.
18. Guard against kickback. Kickback is the
upward motion of the guide bar which
occurs when the saw chain at the nose
of the guide bar contacts an object.
Kickback can lead to dangerous loss of
control of the chain saw.
KICKBACK SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR
CHAIN SAW USERS
– WARNING –
● Kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar touches an object, or when the
wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut. Tip contact in some cases may
cause a lightning fast reverse reaction, kicking the guide bar up and back towards the
operator. Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may push the guide bar
rapidly back towards the operator. Either of these reactions may cause you to lose
control of the saw which could result in serious personal injury.
● Do not rely exclusively on the safety devices built into your saw. As a chain saw user you
should take several steps to keep cutting jobs free from accident or injury.
(1) With a basic understanding of kickback you can reduce or eliminate the element of
surprise. Sudden surprise contributes to accidents.
(2) Keep a good grip on the saw with both hands, the right hand on the rear handle, and
the left hand on the front handle, when the engine is running. Use a firm grip with
thumbs and fingers encircling the chain saw handles. A firm grip will help you reduce
kickback and maintain control of the saw. Don’t let go.
(3) Make certain that the area in which you’re cutting is free from obstructions. Do not let
the nose of the guide bar contact a log, branch, or any other obstruction which could
be hit while you are operating the saw.
(4) Cut at high engine speeds.
(5) Do not overreach or cut above shoulder height.
(6) Follow manufacturers sharpening and maintenance instructions for saw chain.
(7) Only use replacement bars and chains specified by the manufacturer or the
equivalent.

2. Installing Guide Bar and Saw Chain
The saw chain has very sharp edges. Use
thick protective gloves for safety.
1. Loosen the nuts and remove the chain cover.
2. Install the attached spike to the power unit.
3. Gear the chain to the sprocket and, while fitting
the saw chain around the guide bar, mount the
guide bar to the power unit, Then adjust the
position of chain tensioner nut on the chain
cover to the lower hole of guide bar.
Note:
Pay attention to the correct direction of the saw
chain.
4. Fit the chain cover to the power unit and fasten
the nuts to finger tightness.
5. While holding up the tip of the bar, adjust the
chain tension by turning the tensioner screw until
the tie straps just touch the bottom side of the
bar rail.
6. Tighten the nuts securely with the bar tip held
up. Then check the chain for smooth rotation
and proper tension while moving it by hand. If
necessary, readjust with the chain cover loose.
7. Tighten the tensioner screw.
Note :
A new chain will expand its length in the
beginning of use. Check and readjust the
tension frequently as a loose chain can easily
derail or cause rapid wear of itself and the guide
bar.

3. Fuel and Chain oil
FOR YOUR ENGINE LIFE, AVOID;
■ FUEL
The RedMax engines are lubricated by oil
specially formulated for air-cooled 2-cycle
gasoline engine use. If RedMax oil is not
available, use an anti-oxidant added quality
oil expressly labeled for air-cooled 2-cycle
engine use.
1. FUEL WITH NO OIL(RAW GASOLINE) –
It will cause severe damage to the engine
inner parts very quickly.
2. GASOHOL – It can cause deterioration of
rubber and/or plastic parts and disruption
of engine lubrication.
RECOMMENDED MIXING RATIO
GASOLINE 32 : OIL 1
3. OIL FOR 4-CYCLE ENGINE USE or
WATER COOLED 2-CYCLE ENGINE
USE – It can cause spark plug fouling,
exhaust port blocking, or piston ring
sticking.
Exhaust emission are controlled by the
fundamental engine parameters and
components (eq., carburation, ignition
timing and port timing) without addition
of any major hardware or the introduction
of an inert material during combustion.
These engines are certified to operate on
un-leaded gasoline.
WARNING !
The fuel is highly flammable. Do not
smoke or bring any flame or sparks near
fuel.
■ CHAIN OIL
Use motor oil SAE 10W-30 all year round, or
SAE 30-40 in summer and SAE 20 in winter.
• HOW TO MIX FUEL
NOTE:
1. Measure out the quantities of gasoline
and oil to be mixed.
Do not use waste or regenerated oil that
can cause damage to the oil pump.
2. Put some of the gasoline into a clean,
approved fuel container.
3. Pour in all of the oil and agitate well.
4. Pour in the rest of gasoline and agitate
again for at least one minute.
5. Put a clear indication on the outside of the
container to avoid mixing up with gasoline
or other containers.

engine.
7. Allow the engine to warm up with the throttle
lever pulled slightly.
Keep clear of the saw chain as it will start
rotating upon starting of engine.
Checking oil supply
After starting the engine, run the chain at medium
speed and see if chain oil is scattered oft as shown
in the figure.
The chain oil flow can be changed by inserting a
screwdriver in the hole on bottom of the clutch
side. Adjust according to your work conditions.
Note:
The oil tank should become nearly empty by the
time fuel is used up. Be sure to refill the oil tank
every time when refueling the saw.
Adjusting carburetor
The carburetor has been adjusted at the factory.
Should your unit need readjustment due to the
changes in altitude or operating conditions, please
let your skillful dealer make the adjustment. A
wrong adjustment may cause damage to your unit.
If you have to make the adjustment yourself,
please carefully follow the procedure below.

2. Start engine and allow it to warm up in low
speed for a few minutes.
3. Turn idle adjusting screw (T) counterclockwise
so that saw chain does not turn. If idling speed is
too slow, turn the screw clockwise.
4. Make a test cut adjust the H needle for best
cutting power, not for maximum speed.
Icing prevention system
This system prevents icing of the carburetor which
sometimes happen while sawing in winter.
When your saw is possible to be frozen at the
carburetor during operation, use the system as
follows:
1. Loosen a screw and remove the screen on the
back of the air cleaner cover.
2. Turn the screen a half and reinstall to the cover.
Never use the system in normal
temperature because that can cause
starting failure due to overheating of the
carburetor.
When using the saw with the anti-icing setting,
frequently check the screen and keep it clean of
saw dust.

Chain brake
This machine is equipped with an automatic brake
to stop saw chain rotation upon occurrence of
kickback while in saw cutting operation. The brake
is automatically operated by inertial force which
acts on the weight fitted inside the front gurd.
This brake can also be operated manually with the
front guard turned down to the guide bar.
To release brake, pull up the front guard toward the
front handle till “click” sound is heard.
[Caution]
Be sure to confirm brake operation on the daily
inspection.
How to confirm:
1) Turn off the engine.
2) Holding the chain saw horizontally, release your
hand from the front handle, hit the tip of the
guide bar to a stump or a piece of wood, and
confirm brake operation. Operating level varies
by bar size.
In case the brake is not effective, ask our dealer
inspection and repairing.
The engine, if being kept rotated at high speed with
the brake engaged, heats the clutch, causing a
trouble. When the brake is operated while in
operation, immediately release your fingers from
the throttle lever and stop the engine.
Stopping engine
1. Release the throttle lever to allow the engine
idling for a few minutes.
2. Move the switch lever downward.

5. Sawing
NOTE:
• This saw is also equipped with a chain
brake that will stop the chain in the event
of kickback if operating properly. You
must check the chain brake operation
before each usage by running the saw at
full throttle for 1 or 2 seconds and pushing
the front hand guard forward. The chain
should stop immediately with the engine
at full speed. If the chain is slow to stop or
does not stop then replace the brake band
and clutch drum before use.
• It is extremely important that the chain
brake be checked for proper operation
before each use and that the chain be
sharp in order to maintain the kickback
safety level of this saw. Removal of the
safety devices, inadequate maintenance,
or incorrect replacement of the bar or
chain may increase the risk of serious
personal injury due to kickback.
• Before proceeding to your job, read “For
Safe Operation” section. It is
recommended to first practice sawing
easy logs. This also helps you get
accustomed to your unit.
• It is not necessary to force the saw into
the cut. Apply only light pressure while
running the engine at full throttle.
• Racing the engine with the chain seized in
a cutaway can damage the clutch system.
When the saw chain is caught in the cut,
do not attempt to pull it out by force, but
use a wedge or a lever to open the cut.
■ GUARD AGAINST KICKBACK
• This saw is equipped with a special “low
kickback” chain that greatly reduces the
severty of kickback should it occur.
• The saw chain has been tested in
accordance with American National
Standard Safety Specifications for
gasoline powered chain saw (ANSI
B175.1 1985) as having an acceptable
low kickback level. On this saw never use
any chain other than those recommended
on page 12 of this manual, or which is not
designated as meeting the ANSI B175.1
kickback levels on this saw.
• Low kickback saw chains are chains
which have met the kickback
requirements of ANSI B175.1 when tested
on the representative samples of chain
saws below 3.8 C.I.D. specified in ANSI
B175.1.
■ FELLING A TREE
[CAUTION!] When you fell a tree, be sure to
warn your neighboring workers of the
danger.
• The guide bar supplied with this saw has
an under 1.2 inch radius sprocket nose
which produces a specific kickback
energy. Never use a bar with a larger
nose
radius.
Use
only
those
recommended on page 12.
• The length of bars has a great effect on
kickback. Use only those length as
specified on page 12.

1. Decide the felling direction considering the
wind, Iean of the tree, location of heavy
branches, ease of job after felling, and
other factors .
2. While clearing the area around the tree,
arrange a good foothold and retreat path.
3. Make a notch cut one-third of the way into
the tree on the felling side.
4. Make a felling cut from the opposite side
of the notch and at a level slightly higher
than the bottom of the notch.
• Limbing a felled tree
[CAUTION!]
■ LOGGING AND LIMBING
Be alert to the spring back of a cut limb.
[CAUTION!]
1. Always ensure your foothold as well as
stability of the tree.
2. Be alert to the rolling over of a cut log.
3. Read the instructions in “For Safe
Operation” to avoid kickback of the
saw.
First check which way the limb is bent. Then
make a shallow cut into the compressed side
to prevent the limb from being torn. Cut
through from the tensed side.
Before starting work, check the direction of
bending force inside the log to be cut.
Always finish cutting from the opposite side
of bending direction to prevent the guide bar
from being caught in the cutaway.
• Cutting an unpillowed log
Saw down halfway, then roll the log over and
cut from the opposite side.
• Pruning
[CAUTION!]
1. Do not use an unstable foothold or a
stepladder.
2. Do not overreach.
3. Do not cut above shoulder height.
4. Always use both hands to grip the saw.
Cut up from the bottom, finish down from the
top.
• Cutting a pillowed log
In the area A in the picture right above, saw
up from the bottom one-third and finish by
sawing down from the top. In the area B,
saw down from the top one-third and finish
by sawing up from the bottom.
