Do not re-tighten or change the
chain when it is hot because it
shrinks slightly once it has cooled
down.Incaseofnon-observance,
this can lead to damages on the
guide rail or the engine because
now the chain is too taut on the
blade. Chain tension and chain lu-
bricationhaveasignificantimpact
on the service life of the chain.
The chain is correctly tensioned if it does
not sag at the rail underside and can be
rotated completely around with the gloved
hand. When the saw chain is tensioned
with9N(approx.1kg),thegapbetween
the saw chain and the guide rail may not
be more than 2 mm.

Chain lubrication
The rail and chain must never be
without oil. If the cordless chainsaw
isusedwithtoolittleoil,thecut-
ting performance and lifespan of
the saw chain will decrease as the
chain will become blunt more quick-
ly. You can identify a case of too
little oil where smoke development
or discoloration of the rail occurs.
The chainsaw is equipped with an auto-
matic oiling system. As soon as the motor

Filling up with chain oil:
• Checktheoilfilllevelandregularlytop
upwithoil(10).
• Use a chain oil with a low content of
adhesive additives.
Chain oil and bio chain oil with addi-
tives to reduce friction and wear can
be purchased from our online shop.
