Cutting Techniques (General Guidelines)

- Plan your cuts to ensure the branch or log falls safely and does not pinch the guide bar.
- Do not force the saw; let the chain do the work.
Using the PowerSharp Sharpening System
The integrated PowerSharp system allows for quick and easy chain sharpening directly on the saw, minimizing downtime.
- Step 1: Prepare for Sharpening. Place the chainsaw on a stable, flat surface. Ensure the chain brake is engaged.
- Step 2: Engage the Sharpening Lever. While the chainsaw is running at full speed (ensure safety precautions are followed), gently push the red PowerSharp lever down and hold it for 3-5 seconds.
- Step 3: Sharpening Complete. Release the lever. The chain is now sharpened and ready for use. You may see sparks during the sharpening process, which is normal.
