3. Setup u Assemblea

Before first use, ensure the saw is correctly assembled and prepared.

3.1 Taħlita ta' Fjuwil u Żejt

This petrol saw requires a specific fuel mixture. Consult the engine manufacturer's recommendations for the correct petrol-to-oil ratio (typically 2-stroke engine oil mixed with unleaded petrol).

1. Mix the recommended 2-stroke engine oil with unleaded petrol in a separate, approved fuel container.
2. Carefully pour the mixed fuel into the fuel tank (marked with a fuel pump icon). Do not overfill.
3. Fill the chain oil tank (marked with an oil can icon) with appropriate chain lubricant oil. This lubricates the chain and guide bar during operation.
4. Securely close both fuel and oil caps.

3.2 Chain and Guide Bar Installation (if not pre-assembled)

1. Ensure the engine is off and the chain brake is engaged.
2. Neħħi l-ġewż tal-għatu tal-katina u l-għatu tal-katina.
3. Poġġi l-bar gwida fuq l-istuds.
4. Carefully fit the saw chain around the sprocket and into the guide bar groove, ensuring the cutting edges face forward in the direction of rotation.
5. Replace the chain cover and loosely tighten the nuts.
6. Adjust chain tension: The chain should be snug against the guide bar but still able to be pulled freely by hand. There should be no slack on the underside of the guide bar.
7. Once tension is correct, fully tighten the chain cover nuts.

4.2 Tekniki tat-Tqattigħ

Always maintain a firm grip with both hands. Ensure the chain is rotating at full speed before making contact with the wood.

• Tqattigħ: For felling trees, plan your escape route and cutting direction carefully. Make a notch cut on the side of the desired fall, then a felling cut from the opposite side.
• Limbing: When limbing, work from the bottom of the tree upwards, removing smaller branches first. Be aware of branches under tension.
• Tibdil: When cutting a log into sections (bucking), support the log to prevent pinching the chain. Cut from the top down or bottom up depending on the log's support.
