• Ensure that you have secure footing and
balance your body weight evenly on
both feet. If possible, the trunk should
be protected and supported by branch-
es, logs or wedges. Follow the simple
instructions for easy sowing.
1. Log is lying on the ground:
Saw through the log completely
from above and ensure at the end
of the cut not to contact the ground.
If you can turn the tree trunk, saw
two-thirds of the way through it. Then
turn the trunk around and saw the
rest of the way through from above.
2. Log is supported at one end:
Start sawing from the bottom and
work your way up (with the upper
edge of the bar) a third of the way
into the diameter of the trunk to
prevent splitting. Then saw from
the top downwards with the lower
edge of the bar towards the irst
cut to prevent the bar from becom-
ing jammed in the wood.
3. Log is supported at both ends:
Start from the top and work down
(with the lower edge of the bar) to a
third of the diameter of the trunk. Then
saw from underneath with the upper
edge of the bar until the two cuts meet.
4. Sawing on a sawhorse:
Hold the electric chainsaw steady
with both hands, keeping the saw
in front of you while sawing. Once
the saw is through the wood, guide
the machine passed you on the
right (1). Hold your left arm as
straight as you can (2). Watch out
for the falling trunk. Position your-
self to prevent any danger from the
separated trunk. Watch your feet.
The trunk may cause injuries when
falling. Keep your balance (3).
Maintenance and
cleaning
Basically, carry out mainte-
nance and cleaning works
with switched-off motor and
power plug removed. Danger
of injury!
Leave any maintenance and
servicing work not covered
by this manual to our Ser-
vice-Center. Use only original
spare parts.
Allow the machine to cool
down before all maintenance
and cleaning works. Danger
of burn injuries!
Cleaning
• Clean the machine thoroughly after eve-
ry use. In this way, you extend the life of
the machine and avoid accidents.
• Keep the gripping handles free of petrol,
oil or grease. Clean the gripping han-
dles, where appropriate, with a moist
cloth soaked in soap. Use no solvents or
petrol for cleaning!
• Clean the saw chain after every use. Use
a paint brush or wipe for that. Do not use
any liquids to clean the chain. After clean-
ing, oil the chain lightly with chain oil.
• When cleaning, also remove the chain
wheel cover (
A
8) so that this area can
be cleaned as well.
• Clean the chain bar (Guide) (
A
4).
• Clean the ventilation slots and the sur-
faces of the machine with a paint brush,
whisk or dry cloth. Do not use any liq-
uids for cleaning.
• Clean the oil passages of the chain bar
(
26), in order to guarantee a trouble-
free, automatic oiling of the saw chain
during operation.
