"cutting through" , to maintain complete
control release the cutting pressure near the
end of the cut without relaxing your grip on
the chain saw handles. Don't let the chain
contact the ground. After completing the cut,
wait for the saw chain to stop before you

MAInTEnAnCE
Before any work on the machine itself,
pull the mains plug from the socket.
Note: To ensure long and reliable service,
carry out the following maintenance regularly.
Regularly check for obvious defects such as
loose, dislodged or damaged chain and guide
bar, loose fixings and worn or damaged
components.
Check that covers and guards are undamaged
and correctly fitted. Carry out necessary
maintenance or repairs before using the chain
saw.
If the chain saw should happen to fail despite
the care taken in manufacturing and testing,
repair should be carried out by an authorized
customer service agent.
If the replacement of the supply cord is
necessary, this has to be done by the
manufacturer or his agent in order to
avoid a safety hazard.
Before returning, ensure all oil in the oil
tank has been emptied.
Replacing/Changing Chain and guide bar
Fit the chain and guide bar as described in
"Assembly and Tensioning Chain" .
The circular groove of the guide bar will wear
particularly on the lower edge with time.
When replacing the chain turn the chain bar
180° to allow even wear, thus extending chain
bar life.
Check drive sprocket. If it is worn out or
damaged due to strain, have it exchanged by
an authorized service agent.
If the chain bar is worn out or damaged,
take the chain tensioning catch off the bar
by loosing the screw anti-clockwise. Then
fit the tensioning catch into the new bar by
tightening the screw clockwise. The catch
Chain saw
protrude (a) must be fitted into the bar hole.

at your approved service agent or sharpen
