ENGLISH
Fitting the guide bar and chain. (fig. A - E)
Place the chainsaw onto a stable surface.
u
Set the front guard/chain brake assembly to the forward
u
position (fig. D).
Fully loosen the control knob (9) (fig. A)
u
Remove the chain cover assembly (10).
u
Place the chain (6) over the guide bar (7) making sure that
u
the saw chain cutters on the upper part of the guide bar
(7) face towards the front (fig. B).
Guide the chain (6) around the guide bar (7) and pull it to
u
create a loop to one side at the rear end of the guide bar
(7).
Guide the chain (6) around the drive sprocket (12). Place
u
the guide bar (7) onto the bar location studs (13) (fig. E).
Warning! Make sure that the front guard/chain brake
assembly (4) is in the set (forward) position before refitting
(fig. C).
Before fitting the chain cover assembley check that the
u
cam (11) (fig. B) is in the correct position. If necessary,
press in and turn the control knob (9) clockwise to rotate
the cam into the correct position.
Fit the chain cover by locating the bolt and using the
u
control knob (9) to tighten the chain cover finger tight.
To tension the chain, loosen the control knob one full turn,
u
press in firmly and rotate clockwise. As the bar moves
forward make sure that the chain links feed into the guide
bar.
Allow the control knob to spring back to the „out" position
u
and rotate further clockwise to tighten the guide bar. Do
not overtighten.
Check the tension as described below.
u
Checking and adjusting the chain tension
(fig. G)
Before use and after every 10 minutes of use, you must
check the chain tension.
Disconnect the tool from the mains supply.
u
Lightly pull on the chain (6) as shown (inset fig. G). The
u
tension is correct when the chain (6) snaps back after
being pulled 3 mm away from the guide bar (7). There
should be no "sag" between the guide bar (7) and the
chain (6) on the underside.
Note: Do not over-tension the chain as this will lead to
excessive wear and will reduce the life of the guide bar and
the chain.
Note: When the chain is new, check the tension frequently
(after disconnecting from the mains) during the first 2 hours
of use because a new chain stretches slightly.

To increase the tension
Loosen the control knob one full turn, press in firmly and
u
rotate clockwise untill the required tension is reached. As
the bar moves forward make sure that the chain links feed
into the guide bar.
Allow the control knob to spring back to the „out" position
u
and rotate further clockwise to tighten the guide bar. Do
not overtighten.
Use
Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.
Filling the oil reservoir (fig. F)
Remove the oil cap (3) and fill the reservoir with the
u
recommended chain oil. You can see the oil level in the oil
level indicator (5). Refit the oil cap (3).
Periodically switch off and check the oil level indicator (5);
u
if it is less than a quarter full, disconnect your chainsaw
from the mains supplyand refill with the correct oil.
Switching on
Note: It will not be possible to switch the tool on if the
front guard/chain brake assembly is not in the "set"
position.
Grip your chainsaw firmly with both hands. Push the
u
lock-off button (2) and then push the on/off switch (1) to
start.
When the motor starts, remove your thumb from the lock
u
button (2) and grip the handle firmly.
Do not force the tool, allow the tool to do the work.
It will do a better and safer job at the speed for which it is
designed. Excessive force will stretch the saw chain (6).
How to set the chain brake (fig. C)
Make sure that the tool is disconnected from the mains
u
supply.
Pull the front guard/chain brake assembly (4) back into the
u
"set" (fig. C) position.
The tool is now ready to use.
u
How the anti-kickback chain brake works
In the event of kickback, your left hand comes in contact with
the front guard, pushing it forwards, toward the workpiece,
and stops the tool within a few fractions of a second.
How to test the anti-kickback chain brake (fig. C)
Always check that the kickback brake operates correctly
u
before use.
Grip the tool firmly in both hands on a firm surface make
u
sure the saw chain (6) is clear of the ground and switch on
(see" How to switch the chainsaw on").
