Cleaning
WARNING!
Do not use water or liquid detergents.
CAUTION!
Clean the unit after every use. Failure to clean the unit can damage the materials and cause
malfunctions.
Clean the unit with a damp cloth and a soft brush.
Remove the chain cover, and then use a soft brush to remove debris from the saw rail, saw
chain, chain wheel and chain cover.
Keep the ventilation slits clean and dust-free.
Servicing
Tension the saw chain
The saw chain must not sag, but it should be possible to pull it 2-4 millimetres off the saw rail
in the middle of the saw rail.
Unscrew the hand wheel anti-clockwise until the saw rail can be moved by hand.
Turn the chain tension wheel on anti-clockwise to tension the chain.
Turn the saw chain by hand to check that it runs perfectly. It must slide freely in the rail.
Tighten the hand wheel to attach the rail and the cover .
NOTE: Check and re-adjust the tension of a new chain after working for a few minutes.
Switch the motor off, remove the battery and actuate the chain brake.
Cleaning oil guide groove in the saw rail
Remove saw rail. Remove dirt from the oil guide groove using a suitable tool. Use a plastic
spatula, not a steel tool! Re-attach saw rail.
Regrinding saw chain
Special tools are required to sharpen the saw chain and guarantee that the blades of the
chain are sharpened at the correct angle and to the correct depth. We recommend having the
saw chain reground by specialist.
Storage
Store the unit in a dry and frost-free place (10-25 °C).
Store the battery and the unit separately.
Charge the battery before storing the unit in winter.
For a prolonged period of non-use always drain the chain lubricating oil out the power tool.
