suddenly. Take great care when working on sloping

ground.

3 Most kickback accidents happen during limbing. Make

sure you are standing firmly and that there is nothing

in the way that might make you trip or lose your

balance.

Lack of concentration can lead to kickback if the

kickback zone of the bar accidentally touches a

branch, nearby tree or some other object.

7 Take great care when cutting a tree that is in tension.

A tree that is in tension may spring back to its normal

position before or after being cut. If you position

yourself incorrectly or make the cut in the wrong place

the tree may hit you or the machine and cause you to

lose control. Both situations can cause serious

personal injury.

branches without first separating them. Only saw one

log or one piece at a time. Remove the cut pieces to

keep your working area safe.

4 Never use the chain saw above shoulder height

and try not to cut with the tip of the bar. Never use

the chain saw one-handed!

9 When you put the chain saw on the ground, lock the

saw chain using the chain brake and ensure you have

a constant view of the machine. Switch the engine off

before leaving your chain saw for any length of time.

This chapter sets out working practices to reduce the risk

of injury from tree service chainsaws when working at

height from a rope and harness. While it may form the

basis of guidance and training literature, it should not be

regarded as a substitute for formal training.

General requirements working at height

Operators of tree service chainsaws working at height

from a rope and harness should never work alone. A

competent ground worker trained in appropriate

emergency procedures should assist them.

Operators of tree service chainsaws for this work should

be trained in general safe climbing and work positioning

Preparing to use the saw in the tree

The chain saw should be checked, fuelled, started and

warmed up by the ground worker and the chain brake

should be engaged before it is sent up to the operator in

top of the object downwards, is known as cutting on

WORKING TECHNIQUES

There are five important factors you should consider

Cut all the way through the log from above. Avoid letting

before making a cut:

the chain touch the ground as you finish the cut. Maintain

full throttle but be prepared for what might happen.

1 Make sure the cutting equipment will not jam in the

cut.

2 Make sure the object you are cutting will not split.

- If it is possible (can you turn the log?) stop cutting about

2/3 of the way through the log.

3 Make sure the chain will not strike the ground or any

other object during or after cutting.

- Turn the log and finish the cut from the opposite side.

4 Is there a risk of kickback?

The log is supported at one end. There is a high risk

that it will split.

5 Do the conditions and surrounding terrain affect how

safely you can stand and move about?

WORKING TECHNIQUES

through the trunk and the angle between the top cut and

bottom cut should be 45°.

All control over the felling direction is lost if the felling

hinge is too narrow or non-existent, or if the directional

cuts and felling cut are badly placed.

The line where the two cuts meet is called the directional

cut line. This line should be perfectly horizontal and at

right angles (90°) to the chosen felling direction.

We recommend that you use a bar that is longer than the

diameter of the tree, so that you can make the felling cut

and directional cuts with single cutting strokes. See the

Technical data section to find out which lengths of bar are

recommended for your saw.

Felling cut

The felling cut is made from the opposite side of the tree

and it must be perfectly horizontal. Try to take a correct

position so you are able to cut on the pull stroke.

There are methods for felling trees with a diameter larger

Set the spike bumper (if one is fitted) just behind the felling

hinge. Use full throttle and advance the chain/bar slowly

into the tree. Make sure the tree-top does not start to

move in the opposite direction to your intended felling

direction.

Freeing a tree that has fallen badly

Cutting trees and branches that are in tension

Preparations:

Work out which side is in tension and where the point of

maximum tension is (i.e. where it would break if it was

bent even more).

Finish the felling cut parallel with the directional cut line so

that the distance between them is at least 1/10 of the

trunk diameter. The uncut section of the trunk is called the

felling hinge.

Decide which is the safest way to release the tension and

whether you are able to do it safely. In complicated

situations the only safe method is to put aside your chain

saw and use a winch.

this happens when the chain is moving it

can cause very serious, even fatal

injuries. It is vital you understand what

causes kickback and that you can avoid

it by taking care and using the right

working technique.

What is kickback?

The word kickback is used to describe the sudden

reaction that causes the chain saw and bar to jump off an

object when the upper quadrant of the tip of the bar,

known as the kickback zone, touches an object.

Kickback always occurs in the cutting plane of the bar.

Normally the chain saw and bar are thrown backwards

and upwards towards the user. However, the chain saw

may move in a different direction depending on the way it

was being used when the kickback zone of the bar

touched the object.

Kickback only occurs if the kickback zone of the bar

touches an object.

Lubricate the bar tip sprocket each time you refuel. Use

the special grease gun and a good quality bearing grease.

The filter can be cleaned more thoroughly by washing it in

water and detergent.

An air filter that has been in use for a long time cannot be

cleaned completely. The filter must therefore be replaced

with a new one at regular intervals. A damaged air filter

must always be replaced.

A HUSQVARNA chain saw can be equipped with different

types of air filter according to working conditions, weather,

season, etc. Contact your dealer for advice.

MAINTENANCE

Adjustment of the oil pump

The oil pump is adjustable. Adjustments are made by

turning the screw with a screwdriver. Turning the screw

clockwise will increase the oil flow, turning it anticlockwise

will reduce the oil flow.

The oil tank should become nearly empty by time fuel is

used up. Be sure to refill the oil tank every time when

refueling the saw.

WARNING! The engine must not be

running when making adjustments.

!

Cooling system

To keep the working temperature as low as possible the

machine is equipped with a cooling system.

The cooling system consists of:

1 Air intake on the starter.

2 Air guide plate.

3 Fins on the flywheel.

4 Cooling fins on the cylinder.

5 Clutch cover

Clean the cooling system with a brush once a week, more

often in demanding conditions. A dirty or blocked cooling

system results in the machine overheating which causes

damage to the piston and cylinder.

EINLEITUNG

Sehr geehrter Kunde!

Herzlichen Glückwunsch zu Ihrem Kauf eines Husqvarna-Produkts!Husqvarnas Geschichte reicht bis ins Jahr 1689

zurück, als König Karl XI eine Fabrik an den Ufern des Flusses Huskvarna errichten ließ, in der Musketen gefertigt

werden sollten.Die Lage am Huskvarna bot sich an, da der Fluss zur Erzeugung von Wasserkraft verwendet wurde und

so als Wasserkraftwerk diente.In den mehr als 300 Jahren seit dem Bestehen des Husqvarna-Werks wurden unzählige

Produkte hergestellt, angefangen von Holzöfen bis hin zu modernen Küchenmaschinen, Nähmaschinen, Fahr- und

Motorrädern usw.1956 wurde der erste Motorrasenmäher auf den Markt gebracht, gefolgt von der Motorsäge 1959, und

in diesem Bereich ist Husqvarnas auch heute tätig.

Husqvarna ist gegenwärtig einer der weltführenden Hersteller von Forst- und Gartenmaschinen und legt vor allem Wert

auf Qualität und Leistungskraft.Das Unternehmenskonzept umfasst die Entwicklung, Herstellung und den Vertrieb von
