12. Cutting wood on supports (trestles)
In order to work easily and safely, it is important to maintain a correct
position:
- Distribute your weight on both feet.
- Hold the chain saw to your right while cutting.
CLEANING
IMPORTANT! Before carrying out any operation on the chain saw,
disconnect the batteries.
- Regularly remove dirt and wood deposits from the motor cooling
vents (nr. 14 Fig. A Pos. 1).
Cooling the motor is very important and this operation must be carried
out regularly even during use, if deposits are noticed.
It is recommended that a dry brush be used to clean the cooling vents.
- After every extensive working period, disassemble the bar and chain
and clean them with a brush.
Carefully remove the wood deposits from the sprocket (nr. 19), near
the bar fixing pin (16), and from under the housing.
- Keep the area near the oil tank cap and the inspection window clean
so that no impurities enter the tank.
- Clean the surfaces of plastic parts with a rag, a brush, or a soft
brush.
- If the chain saw is not used for a long period of time, it is recommended
that the you empty the tank, clean the chain and bar in an oil bath, and
store them in greaseproof paper.
MAINTAINING
IMPORTANT! Before carrying out any operation on the chain saw,
disconnect the plug from the power supply.
- Tension the chain when necessary
- Bring the chain to a specialized workshop for maintenance and
sharpening as needed.
- Lubricate or grease the ball bearings on the nose of the bar regularly.
- Keep the oil channels on the bar clean.
- Replace the chain when, after repeated sharpenings, the length of
the tooth has reached 3-4 mm or when the links are worn. (Chain
type: see technical data)
- Replace the bar if deformed or damaged. (Bar type: see technical
specifications)
Do not dispose of used oil with domestic waste, but take it to the
special Collection Centres.
