10.8.5 Spiked Bumper
The Spiked bumper must always be put on, while using the chain saw on tree trunk. Push the
spiked bumper into the tree trunk by using the rear handle. Push the front handle in the direction

please follow the instruction of relevant part like installation in manual. A trial run must be
conducted after the cleaning and newly installation. If vibration or mechanical noise is
discovered, please stop the use and contact your dealer.
