Unscrew and remove the cap (item 6) from the oil
tank.
Pour the oil into the oil tank and monitor the quick
view oil indicator ( item 5).
Ensure that no dirt enters
the oil tank while filling the oil in.
Put the oil cap back on and tighten it up.
One full oil tank will enable you to use the saw for
20- 40 min.
TRANSPORTiNG THE CHAiN SAw
Before transporting the chain saw, always remove the
battery pack from the chain saw and slide the chain cover
over the bar and chain. If several cuts are to be performed
with the chain saw, the saw must be switch off between
cuts.
GUiDE BAR COVER
See figure 1
The chain cover (item 15) must be clipped onto the chain and
bar as soon as the sawing work has been completed and
whenever the machine has to be transported.
SHARPENiNG THE SAw CHAiN
See figure 16 - 21
When the chain penetrates into wood with difficulty, it
needs sharpening as follows:
Put the chain under tension.
Fasten the bar in a vice so that the chain can slide.
Fasten the file to the file holder and place it on cutter
at 35° angle.
File with forward strokes only until all the worn out
parts of the cutting edge are taken away.
Count the number of strokes given to the cutter as a
reference and file away with the same number of strokes
on all other cutters.
If the depth gauge protrudes from the template after
sharpening a few times, reset its level. Use a flat file.
Finally, round off the depth gauge.
NOTE:
It is recommended to have the deep or important
sharpening carried out by a service agent who is equipped
with electric sharpener.
GUiDE BAR MAiNTENANCE
When you have finished working, clean out the
groove and the oil passages with a scraping hook.
Periodically trim the sides of rails using a flat file. If
not done in the long run, the feather edges might
break away and damage the bar.
If one rail is higher than the other one, it is necessary
to make it even with a flat file then smooth it with a
file or fine grain abrasive paper.
