Do not let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based

damage to the plastic, and make the plastic
unserviceable.

housing or components.
Remove the battery pack from the machine before
maintenance.

ADJUST THE CHAIN TENSION

Figure 2-7.
The more you use a chain the longer it becomes. It is
therefore important to adjust the chain regularly to take
up the slack.
Tension the chain as tightly as possible, but not so tight
that you cannot pull it round freely by hand.
A slack chain may jump off and cause serious or even
fatal injury.
Wear protective gloves if you touch the chain, bar or
areas around the chain.
1. Stop the machine.
2. Loosen the chain cover by turning the chain cover
knob counterclockwise.
It is not necessary to remove the chain cover to adjust
the chain tension.
3. Turn the chain tension knob clockwise to increase
the chain tension.
4. Turn the chain tension knob counterclockwise to
decrease the chain tension.
5. When the chain is at the wanted tension, tighten the
chain cover.
5.2

SHARPEN THE CUTTERS

Sharpen the cutters if it is not easy for the chain to go
into the wood.
