Changing the chain
speed
The device automatically starts at the
higher chain speed (21 m/s). By pressing
the High/Low button (27), you can switch
between chain speeds (15 and 21 m/s).
The High or Low LED of the chain speed
indicator (25) shows which chain speed is

Checking the chain
brake
The motor cannot be turned on if the
chain brake has engaged. Do not
employ the chain brake in order to
start the chainsaw or to switch it off.
1. Place the chainsaw onto a solid, flat
surface. It must not contact any objects.
2. Ensure that the chain brake has been
released, that is, that the chain brake
lever (5) is pulled up against the front
grip (4).
3. Hold the chainsaw firmly with both
hands, with the right hand on the rear
handle (
1) and the left hand on the
front handle (
4). Thumb and finger
must close securely over the handles.
4. Turn on the chainsaw.
5. Activate the chain braking lever (5),
with running motor, with the left hand.
The saw chain should stop abruptly
and a warning tone sounds.
6. Once the chain brake is working prop-
erly, release the on/off switch (
2)
and the chain brake.
If the chain brake does not
function correctly, you must
not use the chainsaw. A slack
saw chain leads to danger of
injury. Return the chainsaw to
our Service-Center for repair.
Checking the oil automatic
system
Check the oil level and the automatic oil
system before commencement of work.
• Switch on the chainsaw and hold it
above a bright background. The saw
must not touch the ground.
