3. Adjust the tension if you find that the chain saw (14) is too loose or
tight.
4. Loosen the locking wheel (19), then rotate the tension wheel
(20) anticlockwise or clockwise until the chain “tie straps” are
just touching the bottom edge of the guide bar (12), hold it in the
position.
5. Pull the saw chain (14) along the top of the guide bar (13) by gloved
hand from one end to the other, several times. The saw chain (14)
should feel tight but still move freely.
6. After the adjustment, re-tighten the locking wheel (19).
Chain lubrication
WARNING! The product is not filled with chain oil. It is
essential to fill the product with chain oil before using it!
Never operate the product without chain oil as this will
result in extensive damage to the product!
Operating the saw chain dry or with too little chain oil
will decrease cutting efficiency, shorten the product life
span and cause rapid wear to the saw chain and guide
bar from overheating!
Insufficient chain oil is evident by smoke or bar
discoloration! Adequate lubrication of the saw chain
during cutting operations is essential to minimise
friction with the guide bar!
1. Place the product on a stable, level surface with the oil tank cap (17)
facing upward. We recommend laying a non-flammable sheet under
the product.
2. Unscrew and remove the oil tank cap (17) (Fig. 13).

3. Fill suitable lubricant into the tank using an oil funnel fitted with a filter to
avoid debris entering the tank. Do not overfill and leave approximately 5
mm of space between the top of the oil and the inside edge of the tank
to allow for expansion (Fig. 14).
NOTE: In summer use SAE #30; in winter, or if the trees
have excessive sap, use SAE #10.

NOTE: Towards the end of the season, it is advisable to put
only as much lubricant in the tank as you need for each
cut, so that it is completely used up before you store the
product.
4. Check the oil level window (16) prior to start-up and regularly during
operation. Refill oil when the oil level is close to the bottom of the oil
level window (16) (Fig. 13).
5. Wipe up spilled lubricant with a soft cloth and refit the oil tank cap (17).
