9.  Raise the guide bar and tighten the end cover knob 

securely.

Prepare to Work

Check the Machine

m

WARNING! 

Before performing any checks, 

adjustments, repairs or maintenance on the machine, make 

sure the battery is not inserted in the compartment.

m

CAUTION!

 The chain will continue to run for several 

seconds after turning off the tool.
Before starting work please: 

•  Check that all the screws on the machine and the guide 

bar are tightly fastened;

•  Check that the chain is tensioned correctly, sharp and 

there are no signs of any damage;

•  Check that hand grips and protection devices are clean 

and dry, correctly mounted and securely fastened to the 

machine;

•  Check that the On/Off switch and the safety lock button 

move freely without forcing and return automatically and 

rapidly back to their neutral positions;

•  Check that the On/Off switch remains locked until the 

safety lock button is pressed;

•  Make sure the cooling air vents are not clogged with 

sawdust or debris;

•  Check that the chain’s oil level is not below the "MIN" level 

mark; if necessary, top up the oil to 1 cm from the rim of 

the filler.

 NOTE: 

You must fill the chain oil tank with bar and chain 

oil before using your chain saw.

Adjusting the Chain Tension

1.  Tension the chain by turning the chain tensioning ring 

clockwise (Fig. 12). A cold chain will be correctly tensioned 

when there is no slack on the underside of the guide bar; 

the chain is snug, but it can be turned by hand without 

binding.

2.  The tension is correct when the drive links on the chain do 

not slip out of the chain guide on the bar when the chain is 

pulled up from the middle of the bar (Fig. 13).

 NOTE: 

If the chain is too tight, it will not rotate. Loosen the 

end cover knob slightly and turn the chain tension knob 

1/4 turn counterclockwise. Lift the tip of the guide bar up 

and retighten the cover cap knob. Ensure that the chain 

can be rotated by hand without binding.

 NOTE: A new chain tends to stretch; check the chain 

tension frequently, and adjust tension as required.

Chain Lubrication

IMPORTANT! Only use a good quality bar and chain oil 

designed specifically for use with chain saws to ensure optimal 

lubrication of the cutting parts. Do not use oil containing 

impurities to avoid clogging the tank filter and permanently 

damaging the oiler.
IMPORTANT! The chain lubricating oil is bio-degradable. The 

use of mineral oil or engine oil can have a serious impact on 

the environment. It is essential that you use good quality oil to 

lubricate the cutting parts effectively. Used or poor quality oil
