DANGER!
Risk of burn injury!
A too tightly tensioned chain can lead to motor overload
and damage or break of the chain, whereas insufficient ten-
sioning can cause the chain to jump off the rail. A correctly
tensioned chain offers the best cutting performance and
a longer service life. Therefore, you should check the ten-
sioning regularly as the chain may expand when being used
(especially when the chain is new; following first installation,
the tensioning of the chain must be checked after the chain-
saw has been used for a few minutes).
v
However, do not tension the chain immediately after the
operation but wait until it has cooled down.
1. Lift the chain
h
off the bar
2
in the middle of the bar. The gap
should be approx. 2 – 3 mm.
2. Turn the adjustment screw
j
clockwise when the tensioning of
the chain is too low, or turn the adjustment screw
j
anticlockwise
when the tensioning of the chain is too strong.
3. Start the unit for approx. 10 sec.
4. Check the tensioning of the chain again and re-adjust,
if necessary.
