Inserting the saw chain:
1. To open the chain guide rail, turn the
tension lever (12) counterclockwise. To
do this, return the tension lever to its
initial position several times.
To release the tension lever, pull the ten-
sion lever outwards and, after returning
it to its original position, allow it to re-
engage.
2. Place the saw chain into the chain
guide rails (7). The cutting edges must
face the grinding discs (17).
3. Fold the stop (14) down and pull back
the saw chain until the cutting tooth
(25) to be sharpened rests on the stop
