Filling With Oil; Checking Wear On Cutting Equipment - Husqvarna PAX1100 Manual De Instrucciones

Filling with oil

• Open the cap on top of the bar head
• Fill with Husqvarna saw chain oil.
• Refit the cap.
Checking chain lubrication
Check the chain lubrication each time you refuel. Aim the
tip of the bar at a light coloured surface about 20 cm (8
inches) away. After 1 minute running at 3/4 throttle you
should see a distinct line of oil on the light surface.
Adjusting chain lubrication
When cutting dry or hard species of wood it may be
necessary to increase lubrication. Turn the adjuster screw
clockwise to increase the oil flow. Remember that this will
increase oil consumption, check the level in the oil tank
regularly. Turn the adjuster screw anticlockwise to
decrease the oil flow.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
What to do if lubrication does not work:
1 Check that the oil channel in the bar is not obstructed.
Clean if necessary.
2 Check that the oil channel in the gear housing is
clean. Clean if necessary.
3 Check that the bar tip sprocket turns freely. If the chain
lubrication system is still not working after carrying out
the above checks you should contact your service
workshop.
Checking wear on cutting
equipment
Saw chain
Check the chain daily for:
• Visible cracks in rivets and links.
• Whether the chain is stiff.
• Whether rivets and links are badly worn.
We recommend you compare the existing chain with a
new chain to decide how badly the existing chain is worn.
