Fonctions : | This chain saw weights approximately thirty six pounds. It was used by one man, with no chain brake and a manual clutch. In the vertical position it was used to cut up wood for the stove (used as a wood cutter). To use in the horizontal position the carburetor had to be moved to a horizontal position. When the saw was used in a horizontal position it was used to cut down trees in the woods. The throttle is at the back of the machine and had to be set in what ever speed you wanted, at the front was a handle to run the clutch to make the chain move. The colour scheme is aluminum not painted. It has only one cylinder. |
