Note: The service life of chainsaw chains and guide
bars is highly dependent on the quality of the lubricant
used. Old oil must not be used! Use only environmentally
friendly chain lubricant. Store chain lubricant only in
containers that comply with regulations.
6.3.2. CHAIN TENSIONING
Always disconnect the battery from the chainsaw
before doing any work on it.
To avoid injury to sharp cutting edges, always wear
gloves when mounting, tensioning, or checking the
chain.
Chain tensioning:
1. Make sure the chain is inside the guide groove of
the guide bar.
2. Loosen the rod cap nuts (6) without removing the
cap.
3. Using the screwdriver, turn
clockwise to tension the chain
or counterclockwise to loosen it
until the chain tension is correct.
a. Example (A) corresponds to a chain that is too
tight.
b. Example (B) corresponds to a chain that is too
loose.
4. Firmly tighten the rod cap nuts (6)
6.4. START UP AND STOP
Turning on the machine:
Install the battery
Press the battery on / off button to check the battery
charge. Then press the safety button (8) and then the
trigger (9)
Machine disconnection:
Release the trigger (9) and remove the battery
Do not start and stop the machine repeatedly in a
few seconds, it will put a lot of work on the engine,
generate a lot of heat, and decrease the life of your
engine and battery. We recommend that each time
the machine stops, you wait at least 5 seconds before
restarting it.
6.5. CHECK POINTS AFTER START-UP
6.5.1.- VERIFICATION OF AUTOMATIC LUBRICATION
After starting the
engine, accelerate
the chainsaw until
the chain rotates at
medium speed and
check if the chainsaw
greases the chain,
for this it will be worth observing that when placing
the chainsaw as in the figure at medium speed, oil is
released.
