If there is a blockage between the material to
be cut and the saw-chain, switch off the device.
Wait until the saw-chain has come to a
standstill. Put on cut-resistant gloves and
remove the blockage. If the saw-bar must be
removed, follow the instructions as described in
the chapter on setting up the device. After
removing and reinstalling the device, a test run
must be carried out. If vibrations or mechanical
noises are detected, stop working and contact
your dealer.
ATTENTION
A new chain extends at the beginning. Check and readjust the tension
frequently. A loose chain wears quickly and can easily slip off the guide bar.
CHECKING THE CHAIN TENSION
- The chain tension should be checked frequently during work and adjusted
if necessary.
- Tension the chain as tight as possible, but in such a way that it can still be
easily pulled along the guide rail by hand.
WARNING
- Make sure that the engine is switched off when checking the chain
tension.
