contents of the oil tank during sawing work by

checking the oil gauge (C). Close the oil tank cap

tightly and wipe away any spills.

The chainsaw is supplied without oil in tank and it

must fill up when first operation. The tank capacity

approx.

150 ml

lubrication oil.

Assembling bar & sawchain

The chainsaw must be unplugged.

To prevent injury on the sharp cutting edges,

always wear gloves when assembling, tensioning

and checking the chain.

The guide bar and saw chain are supplied

separately when packing. To assemble, first

unscrew the lock knob (G) and remove the guide

bar cover (E).

Before assembling the guide bar with the saw

chain, check the cutting direction of the teeth!

The running direction is marked with an arrow on

the cover (D). To determine the direction of cut, it

may be necessary to turn over the saw chain (A).

Hold the guide bar (B) vertically with the tip

pointing upwards and put on sawchain at the tip

of the bar.

Then assemble the guide bar with the saw

chain as follows:

Place the saw chain round the chain wheel (C)

•

and make sure it is correctly mounted,

Place the guide bar with the saw chain on the

•

lock bolt (H),

Place the cover (E) on top and tighten gently

•

with the lock knob (F) clockwise.

Now the saw chain has to be correctly tensioned.

Tensioning the saw chain

Always pull the plug out of the power socket

before doing any work on the chainsaw!

Wear safety gloves!

Make sure the saw chain (A) is inside the guide

groove of the guide bar!

Turn clockwise of the tension knob (G), the guide

bar is being pushed forwards until the saw chain

is correctly tensioned. Do not tension the chain

too tightly. When cold, it should be possible to lift

the chain in the middle of the guide bar approx. 5

mm. Tighten the lock knob (F) securely.

When warm, the saw chain will expand and

slacken and there is a danger of it jumping off the

rail altogether. Re-tension if necessary. If the saw

chain is re-tensioned when hot, it must be

loosened again when the sawing work has been

completed. Otherwise, the contraction which

takes place as the chain cools would result in

excessively high tension. A new saw chain

requires a running-in period of approx. 5 minutes.

Chain lubrication is very important at this stage.

After running in, check chain tension and

re-tension if necessary.

Securing the extension lead

Only use extension leads suitable for outdoor use.

The cross section of the cable (max. length of

extension cord: 75m) must be at least 1,5 mm2.

Secure the chainsaw flex to the extension lead by

inserting the extension lead into the strain relief gap

of the housing.

Extension leads longer than 30 m will reduce the

performance of the chainsaw.

Chain lubrication

To prevent excessive wear, the saw chain and

guide bar must be evenly lubricated during

operation.

Lubrication is automatic. Never work without

chain lubrication. If the chain runs dry, the entire

cutting apparatus will quickly become severely

damaged. It is therefore important to check both

chain lubrication and the oil gauge every use (Fig.

2).

Never use the saw when the oil level is below the

"MIN." mark.

When only approx. 10 mm of oil is visible at the

lower rim of the oil gauge (C), you must top up

with oil.

Checking the automatic lubrication

Before commencing work, check the automatic

chain lubrication and oil gauge. Switch on the

chain saw and hold it above the ground. Be

careful not to allow the chain saw to touch the

ground. For safety reasons it is best to keep a
