6. CHAIN MAINTENANCE
Warning!
Unless you have experience and
specialized training for dealing with kickback
(see Safety Precautions), always use a low-kickback saw
chain, which significantly reduces the danger of kickback.
Low-kickback saw chains do not eliminated kickbacks
completely.
A low-kickback or “safety chain” should never be regarded
as total protection against injury.
A low-kickback saw chain should always be used in
conjunction with other kickback protection devices provided
with your unit. Always use a replacement saw chain
designed as “low-kickback” or a saw chain which meets the
low-kickback performance. A standard saw chain (a chain
which does not have the kickback reducing guard links)
should only be used by an experienced professional pruner
operator.
7. OIL PASSAGES
Oil passages at bar pad should be cleaned to ensure proper
lubrication of the bar and chain during operation. This can
be done using a soft wire small enough to insert into the oil
discharge hole.
NOTE:
The condition of the oil passages can be
easily checked. If the passages are clear, the chain will
automatically give off a spray of oil within seconds of starting
the pruner. Your pruner is equipped with an automatic oiling
system.
