safety please use work gloves.
1. Loosen the chain drive cover hex
head screw with the provided hex
key/screwdriver tool.
2. Turn the chain tension screw clockwise to tension the chain with the
provided hex key/screwdriver tool. The tension is correct when the
chain can be pulled
5 - 6mm
way from the guide bar when using your
finger and thumb. Do not over-tighten as this will reduce the life of the
chain and guide bar.
3. Once the correct tension has been achieved tighten the chain drive
cover hex head screw to lock the bar and tension in place.
5 - 6mm gap is
the ideal tension
Maintaining the guide bar
1. Remove any sawdust from the groove in
the guide bar, including the groove. Oil
and sawdust combine and emit a burning
smell during operation if the blade is not
regularly cleaned.
2. Make sure that the oil port is not clogged.

The chain can be sharpened using a 5/32” size file. A sharp chain
generates wood chips during the cut, a dull chain generates sawdust
powder and produces a slow cut. Chain sharpening requires special
tools. Chain sharpening tools can be purchased at your local Bunnings
Warehouse. Alternatively you can take the chain to a professional chain
sharpener.
Before storing, drain oil from chain bar oil tank, as oil can slowly leak out
over time.

The blade rail should be cleaned and treated with light machine oil or spray
lubricant (such as WD40, CRC 5.56 or RP7) after each use. When a job
lasts for a longer period of time it is recommended that the blade rail also
be treated with spray lubricant at regular intervals during operation.
The cutting blades are made from high quality, hardened steel and
with normal usage, they will not require re-sharpening. However, if you
accidentally hit a wire fence, stones, glass or other hard objects, you may
put a nick in the blade. there is no need to remove the nick as long as it
does not interfere with the movement of the blade. if it does interfere, use a
fine toothed file or sharpening stone to remove the nick.
fastenings, especially those securing the handles and the guide bar.
4. Reverse the guide bar every 8 working hours to ensure uniform wear.
Check the guide rails frequently and if necessary remove burrs and
square up the rails using a flat file.
