CONTENTS
Contents Before using a new chain saw
• Please read the operator’s manual carefully and make
sure you understand the instructions before using the
machine.
• Check that the cutting equipment is correctly fitted and
adjusted. See instructions under the heading Assembly.
• Refuel, start the chain saw and check the carburettor
settings. See the instructions under the headings Fuel
Handling, Starting and Stopping, and Carburettor.
• Do not use the chain saw until sufficient chain oil has
reached the chain. See instructions under the heading
Lubricating cutting equipment.
IMPORTANT! If the carburettor mixture is too lean it greatly
increases the risk of engine failure. Poor maintenance of the
air filter will cause carbon build-up on the spark plug and lead
to starting difficulties. If the chain is improperly adjusted it will
cause increased wear or damage to the bar, drive sprocket
and chain.
