PREPARING THE SAW

PRELIMiNARY' t'tJ~R;ICAtION•... -, ~-:

1. Unpack the new chain .an~/~;op it into a can of Ski! ChainSaw Oil.

WARNING: CUTTERS ARE SHARP, TAKE CARE WHEN·HANDUNGCHAIN.

2. REMOVE THE NUT, SCREW, WASHER AND CLUTCHCOVER.

3. UNSCREW THE OIL FILLER CAP AND FILL OIL RES·ERVOIR -;-0 ABOUT 1i2 INCH BELOW THE BOTTOMTHREAD OF THE OIL FILLER HOLE WITH SKILCHAIN SAW 01 L. If Ski! Oil is not immediately available,SAE No. 30 oil will do. For cold weather operation seeChain Lubrication, page 6.

4. INSTALL OIL FILLER CAP SNUGLY AND TEST OILEROPERATION. Depress and release oiler button repeatedly.mtil pump primes and oil squirts from the oil discharge hole.

'- If the pump does not prime after six to ten strokes, turn sawso oil discharge hole is in horizontal position and fill the oildischarge hole with oil and try pump again. Make sure pumpworks before 'IOU assemble the bar and chain on the saw.

ATTACHING BAR AND CHAIN

1. Remove nut, screw, washer and clutch cover.

2. Turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise until the tensionadjusting Rut is at the .sprocket end of the slot in whichit travels.

3. Insert guide bar slot over- the adjusting nut and guidepads. Push bar back towards rear hand Ie as far as it wi IIgo.

4. Remove all kinks in chain then face cutters in DIRECTIONOF ROTATION.

5. Place chain over the sprocket and fit the chain in the groovearound the guide bar then puII the bar forward to take upthe chain slack.

6. Be sure all the drive links are seated,properly in the groovearound the bar and the bar slot is over the adjusting nut andguide pads. Install the clutch cover and tighten nut handtight.

OPERATINGCHAIN AND BAR LUBRICAT·ION

For chain lubrication use the same SKIL Chain Saw Oil asindicated in "Preliminary Lubrication" (page 3).

In very cold weather, dilute the oil with kerosene to makethe oil flow ;freely along the bar.

NEVER LET THE OIL RESERVOIR RUN DRY-CHECKFREOUENTLY. CORRECT CHAIN LUBRICATION IS EVI·DENT WHEN SOME OIL SPLASHES FROM THE CHAINWHILE THE SAW IS FREE RUNNING. UNDER NORMALCONDiTIONS THE AUTOMATIC 01LER WI Ll SUPPLY ASUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF OIL BUT FOR LARGE DIA-METER CUTS AND CUTTING IN COLD WEATH'ER, USETHE MANUAL PUMPTO SUPPLY i\119REou,If your ch.ainsawbar hasa sprocket nosejoccasionallvadd a .i,ewdrops of chain saw oil in small hole at the tip of the bar.

GENERAL CUTTING

INSTRUCTIONS

When you cut further out along the bar, the chain will have atendency to pull you and the saw towards the work. so youmust take care to brace vourselt against this suqnt pull. (Thereverse wi II be true if you are using the top ot the bar to snipsmall limbs or "under" buck). Exert light feed pressure to cutstraight through the wood, but be ready to ease-off on thethrottle the moment the cut is completed.

IMP.ORTANT: Know where the chain is at all times with refer-ence to obstructions-stop cutting before the chain touches theground or any obstruction. Keep using the oiler button to keepthe chain well supplied with oil. Watch out for grit or sand inthe bark. Dirty bark will dull the chain immediately. Use an.axe to chip away dirty bark before cutting.

. ' .. ', ,:1 ', ..

Keep quide bar straight in 'cut toprevent chain in upper groovefrom cutting as it passesthrough the work. Binding or pinch-

Soft plasfic Dr wooden wedqes can be driven into the incornpleted back cut to force it open. This is a preferred techniquewith large trees. Do not use hard rnetalsplittinq wedges whichwould ruin the chain and cause severe kickback of saw.' ""'\

It is possible to cut trees up to near lvtwice the usable length-ofthe saw blade, by notching and back-cuttinq .in a series of cuts.However, always remember that the series' shou Id be completedleaving hinge wood of equal thickness from end to end.

MAINTAINING YOUR SAW_ARE OF GUIDE BAR

EXamine the bar carefully. Check the illustrations of wearpatterns of guide bar rails. Also check that the groove is deepenough all the way around the bar that the chain drive tangs donot "bottom out". Rotating the bar helps to equalize wear. Ablue discoloration along the bar indicates that the bar and chainneed more oil, a dull chain, or that the rails have been pinchedtogether at this point. If the bar is not in good condition, reoplace it before any more cutting is done.

SH ARPENING CHAIN ~ (SKIL Service Cen-ters are equipped to sharpen your chain)

For fastest cutting and maximum life of chain and all saw parts,always keep the chain in good sharp condition. When the saw-dust turns from chips into fine powder and you find yourselfpressing hard to feed the chain STOP IMMEDIATELY andsharpen the chain.

1. Place the chain in a chain filing vise, if a vise is not availableleave the chain on the sawand tighten up the tension enoughto keep the chain from wobbling on the bar. Do all the filingat the mid point of bar.

2. Use a file holder having 5/32 round file (not tapered). A fileholder has the required 300 top filing angle marked. If a fileholder is not available, just the file will do.

FORWARD HOOK

Chain will grab and jerk, producing roughcutting. ...Caused by excessivedownward filing pressure;or tip of file held too Iowan tooth.

BACK SLOPE

Chain resists entering wood (scrapes instead ofcutting wood). Causesexcessiveheat and wearto bar and chain.

Caused by lowering handle end of file or hold-ing file too high on the tooth.

IMPROPER TOP PLATE AN9LES

Blunt. chain requires too much feed pressure..This top plate angle causeschain to bind, pro-duces..a..r-9ugh cut, ·f-OGS power-from saw, andincreasesbar groove wear.

Caused by holding file at wrong angle or let-ting it drift or rock during the stroke.

Caused by letting pressure and filing angle vary from tooth totooth or one side filed with different angle and lengths thanthe other .

Chain will not cut atits best. !Vial' cut offline or "run" to oneside, dray may slowdown engine.

THIN FEATHERED EDGES

When they aImost immediately break off,you have a dull chain. Usually found onchain filed with a hook (see "forwardhook").

Causedby holdinq file with handle too low,or pressing back down too hard on file.

BLUNT CUTTING EDGES

JOINTING(DEPTH

Although edge is durable, it won't cutproperly; scrapes wood, robs power andproduces sawdust instead of chips.

Caused by holding file too high on face oftooth, or keeping file handle too high.

.-CHAINCLEARANCE)

Every second or third time the cuttersare sharpened the depthgagesshould' be jointed to the correct depth. Depth.gageclear-ance is as important as sharp 'cutters. 'Clearance determines thebite the cutter takes. If the gagesare too high, the cutters willnot get a good bite; if too low, the' cutters 'wit'I'ta ke too large abite, causing the chain to grab and jerk;' If 'sorneqaqesare 'higherthan others, the chain will cut off line, favoring the side havingthe lowest gages,

DEPTH CLEARANCEFOR YOUR CHAIN

The depth clearance of your chain should be .020·inch.

1. Check clearance with a depth gage jointer. If a jointer is notavailable, lay a straight edge on top of three cutters and checkclearance of the center depth gage with a feeler gage.

2. Lightly file the desired clearance with a safe edge tlat file.

3. Round off the leading edge so the depth gage will not diginto the wood.

4. Check clearance of the next cutter and repeat steps 2 and 3for the entire length of chain.

REPAIRING CHAIN

Any part of a chain can be replaced. However, do not attemptto replace a part if the whole chain is in poor condition.

CHAIN DISASSEMBLY -Remove rivet heads of parts needingreplacement on a bench grinder or with a hand file. Pry partsloose with a cold chisel or drive out rivet with punch.

INSTA!.L1NG CUTTERS-When replacing a cutter, also replaceits tie link. A worn tie link will not properly support cutter.When a new cutter is installed in a chain it should be filed backto correspond with the top plates of the other cutters. Be surethat the depth gageheight is filed to match the other cutters. Itis also important to file off the bottom of cutter to match thewear on the other worn cutters and tie links.

INSTALLING TIE LINKS-Tie link is countersunk anr' ~slightly rounded edges on .one side. This side must alway cinstalled toward the outside of chain. It is important' to file thebottoms of new tie links installed in a used chain to match thewear on the bottoms of worn tie links in the chain, thus pre-venting the chain from tilting to one side. (Use 1/4" round file).

INSTALLING DRIVE LINKS-Chain drive tangs must havesharp points to clean sawdust from the bar groove and bargroove must be deep enough for the tangs to clear the bottomall the way around bar. (Every fourth or fifth tang resharpenedwill do the job 'as the chain wears). If drive links are badlyworn, install a few new ones throughout chain.

INSTALLING RIVETS-Set rivets ~ith a ball peen hammer. Donot use heavy blows-rivet may split.

CARE OFrlUTCH AND SPROCKET ASSEMBLY

Examine the sprocket periodically. Worn sprockets damagechain and greatly reduce cutting efficiency. Always install anew sprocket and bearing with a new chain. Clean bearing andshaft thoroughly with a clean oil soaked cloth and repack thebearing with Skil No. 252 lubricant or a good grade of water-proof grease. Replace the bearing if any damage is apparent.

REMOVING THE SPROCKET: Remove the nut, screw, washerand clutch cover. Loosen adjusting screw and remove bar andchain. Insert a screwdriver in one of the slots in the clutch andgently tap the screwdriver in a clockwise rotation to loosen theclutch. Remove the clutch, sprocket and bearing.

CAUTION: DO NOT OPERATE THE CHAIN SAW WITHOUTTHE CLUTCH AND DRUM ASSEMBLY IN PLACE. CENTRI-FUGAL FORCE WILL CAUSE THE CLUTCH SHOES TO FLYOUT UNLESS RETAINED BY THE CLUTCH DRUM.

: . "

When the saw is not going to be. used for a week or more:1. Drai~"the 0{1 a~d' ;~'el· t~~f ~hen ;~a~ ~he saw and run the

engine until the fuel in the carburetor is burned up. If you donot .follow this procedure when storing saw, you will havetrouble starting your chain saw or it may not start at all.

2. Remove the chain and bar. Put the chain in oil and wrap theguide bar in an oil soaked rag:

3. Clean and wax the painted surfaces of the saw and storein a cool dry place. :, '..

3. After Each Use or Every 5th Tankful Use a Wire to:

A. Clean out the groove, holes of the bar, and the dischargehole. (If cutting wet wood, this may have to be donemore often.)

4. After Every 10th Tankful: Squirt a few drops of Skit ChainSaw Lubricantontcrankshaft behind clutch drum.

5. After Every 25th Tankful:A. Remove the exhaustrnuff'ler and the spark plug, rotate

the crankshaft by means-of the starter until the piston isat top dead center in the cylinder. Turn the saw on end(exhaust ports facing down) this will prevent carbon par-ticles from entering the cvlinder.Bernove carbon build-uparound the exhaust port area wltp a blunt edged woodentool. Inspect muffler baffle and replace if necessary,NEVER RUN THE SAW WITHOUT THE MUFFLERIN PLACE .

B. Clean and gap the spark plug (.025 inch) .

6, After Every 100th Tankful: We recommend you return yourchain saw to the nearest Ski! Service Center or AuthorizedService Station for the following service.

• Parts cleaned and inspected.

• Points, condenser, spark plug and fuetFilterreplaced if necessary.
