WARNING
The risk of kickback is increased if the raker clearance
is too large!
D. Setting the raker clearance
Before setting the raker clearance the cutting teeth
should be newly sharpened.
We recommend that you adjust the raker clearance
every third time you sharpen the chain.
information
This recommendation assumes that the length of the
cutting teeth is not reduced excessively.
1. To adjust the raker clearance you will need a FLAT
FILE and a RAKER GAUGE.
2. Place the gauge over the raker lip.
3. Place the file over the part of the lip that protrudes
through the gauge and file off the excess. The
clearance is correct when you no longer feel any
resistance as you draw the file over the gauge.
Check the chain tension
NOTICE
When adjusting chain tension, make sure the chain
brake nuts are finger tight only. Attempting to tension
the chain when the chain brake nuts are tight can cause
damage.
Use the screwdriver end of the chain adjustment tool
(bar tool) to move the chain around the bar.
•
If the chain does not rotate, it is too tight.
•
If too loose, the chain will sag below the bar.
Tensioning the chain
WARNING
A slack chain may jump off and cause serious or even
fatal injury.
The more you use a chain the longer it becomes. It is
therefore important to adjust the chain regularly to take
up the slack.
Check the chain tension every time you use or refuel
the chain saw.
WARNING
A new saw chain has a running-in period during which
you should check the tension more frequently.
Tension the chain as tightly as possible, but not so tight
that you cannot pull it round freely by hand.
1. Loose the bar nuts that hold the clutch cover and
chain brake, using the combination spanner. Then
tighten the nuts by hand as tight as you can.
2. Raise the tip of the bar and stretch the chain by
tightening the chain tensioning screw using the
combination spanner. Tighten the chain until it not
hang slack on the underside of the bar.
3. Use the combination spanner to tighten the bar nuts
while lifting the tip of the bar at the same time.
Check that you can pull the chain round freely by
hand and that it is not slack on the bottom of the
bar.
