8.1. MAINTENANCE AND CARE AFTER USING THE
MACHINE
Perform the following maintenance operations
and care when you have finished working with
the machine to ensure the smooth running of this
machine in the future.
8.1.1. EXIT OF THE CHAIN OIL
Remove the rod and check that the
lubrication (1) hole is not blocked.
8.1.2. SHARPENING THE CHAIN'S CUTTING TEETH
WARNING! An improperly sharpened chain
increases the risk of rebound of the chainsaw, the
vibrations increasing the risk of accident!.
In order to make sure the chainsaw cuts correctly and
safely, maintain sharp cutting teeth.
In addition, the cutting teeth should be sharpened if:
- You have to use more effort than usual to cut.
- The cutting path is not straight.
- Vibrations increase.
- Fuel consumption increases.
- When cutting, sawdust occurs instead of wood
chips.
Be sure to wear safety gloves when you are
sharpening the chain.
Make sure the saw of the chainsaw is secured when
you sharpen the chain.
Make sure that the motor is off when sharpening
the chain.
Use a special chain file suitable for your chainsaws'
chains.
Position the file on the cutting edge of the tooth cut
between paragraphs (A) and (B) and push forward
while maintaining a 30° angle.
Perform sharpening of all teeth on one side always
honing with outward movements and keeping the 30°
angle. When you finish, change sides and perform the
same operation.
Check the safety height (C), this height has to be 0,
6mm approximately. An overly high height (C) will
cause the chain to "bite" requiring too much effort for
the motor and a small height will not allow the chain
to cut.
Check the length of the cutting teeth. All teeth must
be kept the same length. If necessary, file the lengths
of teeth until they are all identical.
8.2. PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Perform regular inspections of the machine in
order to ensure effective operation of the machine.
For a complete service check, we recommend taking
the machine to your service technician.
