7.3 TOPPING UP THE CHAIN OIL TANK

NOTE The following symbol is found
on the chain oil tank cap (FIg.19.A) :
Chain oil tank
IMPORTANT Only use chainsaw
oil or adhesive oil for chainsaws. Do
not use oil containing impurities so as
not to block the oil filter and to prevent
irreparable damage to the oil pump.
It is essential that you use good quality oil
to lubricate the cutting parts effectively.
Used or poor quality oil does not
guarantee good lubrication and reduces
the working life of the chain and bar.
IMPORTANT Never run the chain
without sufficient oil, this could damage
the saw and compromise safety.
Check the amount of oil in the pruner device
by checking the oil level indicator (Fig. 19.B).
If the oil level is low, top up as follows:
1. Unscrew and remove the cap
(Fig. 19.A) from the oil tank.
2. Pour oil in the tank and monitor the
level on the indicator (Fig. 19.B).
3. Make sure no impurities penetrate
the oil tank when filling.
4. Screw on the oil cap and tighten it.

CLEANING

7.4.1 Cleaning the machine and the motor
After every work session, clean the machine
thoroughly to remove all dust and debris.
• To reduce fire hazards, keep the machine
and, in particular, the motor free of
leaves, branches or excessive grease.
• Always clean the machine after use with a
damp cloth dipped in neutral detergent.
• Remove all traces of humidity using
a soft damp cloth. Humidity can
generate risks of electric shocks.
• Do not use aggressive detergents or solvents
to clean the plastic parts or handgrips.
• Do not spray water onto the motor
and electrical components and
prevent them from getting wet.
• To avoid overheating and damage to the
motor or the battery, always keep the
cooling air vents clean and free of debris.

7.4.2 Cleaning the chain

Remove any traces of sawdust or oil deposits
from the chain every time it is used.
If there is excessive dirt or resin build-up,
disassemble the chain and place it in a
container with a specific cleanser for a few
hours. Then rinse it with clean water and
treat it with a suitable anticorrosive spray,
before reassembling on the machine.
