engages with the threatened pins. Make sure also
that the pin (T) of the adjusting system is fully
engaged (10/D);

Place the metal sheet component on as shown in
figure (10/E);

Make sure that the O-ring is correctly place on the
cover as shown in figure 6;

Holding the bar, position the cover on, and then
slightly tighten the bolds (10/F);

screw (clockwise) the adjusting system screw (U)
(10/G) till the chain is correctly tightened. A proper
tightened chain is represented in figure 13: figure
12 represents a chain too tight, figure 14 a chain
too loose;

keep the bar raised from the surface, fully tighten
the cover screws (10/H).

4.4) Mounting and replacing the back sprocket

The back sprocket wears out and needs to be periodically
replaced; replacement takes place usually every 2 to 3 chain
replacements. See figure 11:

Before starting, make sure the chainsaw is
unplugged (M).

make sure to be in a safe place when performing
this operation. Place the chainsaw on a stable
surface;

unscrew the cover bolts (11/A);

remove the cover (11/B);

remove the metal sheet component (11/C);

remove bar and chain;

hold the sprocket using a pliers as shown in figure
11/D;

loosen the sprocket bolt and remove it. Remove
than the washer and the sprocket (11/E);

clean the area where the sprocket was and oil it
preferably using WD40 spray oil.

follow the steps above backwards

to mount the

sprocket, making sure the bolt is tightened

(11/F);

mount bar and chain.

)

5.1) Follow those steps:

To perform a cut, after having carefully read the paragraphs
above and having checked grounding:

with unplugged chainsaw, make sure the chain is
correctly tightened;

plug the chaisaw in;

make sure the PRCD-GFI works properly according
to directions give in paragraph

3.3) PRCD-GFI

check;

press the green Reset button (Q) on the PRCD-
GFI: the red light (S) will light up, showing that
power is available;

connect the chainsaw to a power supply as shown
in paragraph

3.4) Connecti to a water supply

;

Turn on the valve (O) letting water in;

Firmly hold the saw with both hands as shown in
figure 5;

Make sure the chain is not in contact with anything
and then switch on the saw (N). In order to avoid an
unintentional start, the switch is equipped with a

lock off

system. This means that you need to follow

two steps (I and II) to switch on the chainsaw as
shown in figure 4;

Your chainsaw is equipped with a soft start system
that allows a smooth start of the chain.

5.2) Cutting methods

Lay out the cut with a marker: the cut must be
straight;

To start, plunge the nose of the cutting bar straight
into material till you reach the desired cutting depth.
Keep the bar perpendicular to the wall;

Rock the saw when cutting (figure 15). This leads to
leverage effect that makes cutting easier.

Do not apply too much feed force. A good feed
force leads to best cutting performance, excessive
feed force leads to lower RPM and lower
performance;

Do not perform non-straight cuts and do not tilt side
by side the chainsaw: these would lead to motor
overload and damage bar and chains;

To stop, release the switch (N);

Warning

: the chain keeps running for some

seconds after the switch has been released;

Close the water valve (O);

5.3) Horizontal cuts

You can perform either horizontal or vertical cuts.
When cutting horizontally make sure the work piece
does not press on the bar: use the product as
shown in figure 17. Do not use the product with
handle downward as shown in figure 16. When
cutting an opening such as a window perform first
horizontal cuts and then vertical ones.

5.4) Cutting reinforced concrete

When cutting reinforced concrete rock the saw as
shown in figure 15 in order to keep cutting concrete.
This avoids that the segments gets polished
reducing cutting effectiveness;

5.5) Re-Sharpening the segments

If you experience reduced cutting effectiveness for
polished segments, re-sharpen the segments using
a sharpening stone (not included). Make sure the
stone is properly fastened: see stone manufacturer
directions. Perform re-sharpening with water,
cutting a 1" cut in the sharpening stone.

Warning:

do not perform re-sharpening holding the

stone by hand or your feet.
