MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
Do not let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-based
materials touch the plastic parts. Chemicals can
cause damage to the plastic, and make the plastic
unserviceable.
CAUTION
Do not use strong solvents or detergents on the plastic
housing or components.
WARNING
Remove the battery pack from the machine before
maintenance.
10.1 ADJUST THE CHAIN TENSION
The more you use a chain the longer it becomes. It is
therefore important to adjust the chain regularly to take
up the slack.
Tension the chain so that it can only just be pulled away
from the bar at its center point.
NOTE
During normal saw operation, the temperature of
the chain increases. The drive links of a correctly
tensioned warm chain will hang approximately 1/16 in.
(1.58 mm) out of the bar groove.
1/16 in. (1.58 mm)
WARNING
A slack chain may jump off and cause serious or even
fatal injury.
CAUTION
Wear protective gloves if you touch the chain, bar or
areas around the chain.
1. Switch off the chainsaw and engage the chain
brake.
2. Remove the battery pack.
3. Loosen the chain cover nuts (15) with the wrench
(11).
English
It is not necessary to remove the chain cover to adjust
the chain tension.
4. Hold the bar nose up and turn the chain adjustment
screw clockwise to increase the chain tension, or
turn counterclockwise to decrease the chain tension.
5. Pull the chain in the middle of the guide bar at the
bottom away from the bar, the gap between the
chain guide and the guide bar should be between
3 mm and 6 mm.
6. When the chain is at the wanted tension, tighten the
lock nuts.
10.2 SHARPEN THE CUTTERS
Sharpen the cutters if chain does not go into wood
easily.
We recommend that a service center, which has
an electric sharpener, perform important sharpening
work.
