against the front grip (8).
3. Hold the chainsaw firmly with
both hands, with the right hand
on the rear handle (

the chainsaw. A slack saw chain
leads to danger of injury. Return
the chainsaw to our Service-

If no oil trace can be seen clean
the oil passages or turn the chain-
saw to our Service-Center for re-
pair.
