Cleaning and maintenance
Checking the chain greasing
– Check the oil in the saw chain oil tank and fill up if necessary (▸
Filling up the saw chain oil –
– Start the motor and press the throttle through (▸
– Hold the running saw chain approx. 15 cm over a suitable surface for a short time.
If there is sufficient chain greasing, the oil spraying off of the saw chain will form a slight trail.
Lubricating chain wheel
The bearing of the chain wheel should be regularly lubricated at the front-end of the rail. About 1×
in a week in case of intensive use.
– Clean the lubrication hole.
– Apply little multi-purpose grease in the lubrication hole, while moving the chain with hand.
Checking the chain brake
The chain brake ensures immediate blocking of the saw chain in case of a rebound. Before begin-
ning work with the device, it must be checked to ensure that it is functioning correctly.
– Set device on the ground.
– Tip the hand guard towards the back.
– Start the motor and press the throttle through.
– Tip the hand guard forwards. The chain must stop immediately.
– If the chain brake is not working correctly, have the device checked by an expert immediately.
Sharpening the saw chain
Replacing the air filter
– Loosen the locking for the upper cover (19).
– Pull the cover for the air filter and spark plug (9) on the back upwards and remove it.
NOTICE!
Device damage!
The device may not be used without sufficient chain greasing.
Insufficient greasing reduces the service life of the device.
Note:
The chain saw is equipped with an automatic oiler system with gear wheel drive. The oiler
provides the rail and the chain automatically with the correct quantity of oil. As soon as the
motor is accelerated, the oil flows faster to the saw rail. There is no flow setting. The oil
reserve should run out at approximately the same time as the fuel reserve.
DANGER!
Danger of death!
Special tools are required to sharpen the saw chain; these guarantee that the chain cuts
at the correct angle and depth. Have the saw chain sharpened by a professional!
A worn or improperly sharpened chain can cause rebounds. Severe or even fatal injuries
can be the result!
