When checking the machine before using it, check the operating condition of the brake by
performing the following operations:
Start the engine and grasp the handle firmly with both hands.
While pulling the throttle control lever to keep the chain in operation, push the brake lever down
with the back of the left hand.
When the brake is running and the chain is stopped, remove the hand from the throttle.
Loosen the brake.
c. Release of the chain brake
To use the chain saw again, the chain brake must be released. This must be done machine off and
cooled. Pull the shield until it returns to its original position.
d. Sharpening of the chain
For best performance, we strongly recommend that you periodically sharpen the chain. The chain
can either be sharpened by a professional or by yourself by providing you with a sharpening guide
(make sure you know how to use it).
The chain must be sharpened when:
- Wood chips have become powder
- To make a normal cut, force on the tool
- The cut is not straight
- Vibration increases
- Fuel consumption has increased
e. Checking the lubrication of the chain
- Before checking the oil, make sure that the bar and the chain are in place.
- Once the engine is started, turns it at medium speed and checks that the chain oil is sprayed
and traces off the ground.
- The oil flow of the chain is adjustable to obtain the proper flow. Insert a screwdriver on the
clutch side.
- Turn the adjuster to obtain the correct flow rate for the job.
- The chainsaw must essentially consume the contents of the oil tank between each full of fuel.
Do not forget to fill the oil tank when filling the machine with fuel.
4. Work with wire and harness
NOTE: It is necessary to have a complete training before working at high. It is strongly
recommended that only experienced and trained persons carry out work at high. Know all
emergency procedures to be carried out.
These instructions are examples of good practice. Follow and abide by local laws and regulations
as well.
It is also recommended that the operator who is going to work at height be assisted by another
person.
It is compulsory with techniques of climbing and working position. Be equipped with complete
equipment including harnesses, ropes, strops, snap hooks and other equipment that allows them
to maintain and maintain the saw by adopting secure positions.
