Tensioning the saw chain
With a correctly tensioned chain you get
good cutting performance and a longer life
.
An incorrectly tensioned chain
may break or spring off, leading
to danger of injury. Test the saw
before every start and the chain
tension after every hour of saw-
ing.
The chain is correctly tensioned if it does
not sag at the rail underside and can be
rotated completely around with the gloved
hand.
When the saw chain is tensioned with 9 N
(approx. 1 kg), the gap between the saw
chain and the guide rail may not be more
than 2 mm.

1.
Ensure that the chain brake has
been released, that is, that the
chain brake lever (3) is pulled up
against the front grip (8).
2. Unscrew the fastening bolt (14).
3. To tighten the saw, turn the chain
adjustment ring (13)
clockwise
.
To loosen the tension, turn the
chain adjustment ring
anti-clock-
wise.
4. Tighten up the fastening bolt (14)
again.
With a new saw chain, you must
readjust the chain tension after at
least 5 cutting operations.
Chain lubrication
The rail and chain must never be
without oil. If you operate the elec-
tric chainsaw with too little oil, the
cutting performance and the life-
time of the saw chain is reduced,
since the chain becomes blunt fast-
er. You can identify a case of too
little oil where smoke development
or discoloration of the rail occurs.
The chainsaw is equipped with an auto-
matic oiling system. As soon as the motor
is speeded up, the oil also flows faster to
the chain bar (4).
Filling up with chain oil:
• Check the oil fill level and regularly top
up with oil ( 25).
• Use Grizzly
bio-oil; this product con
-
tains additives that reduce wear and
tear and does not damage the pump
system. bio-oil is available from our
Service-Center.
• If you have no Grizzly bio-oil available,
use chain lubrication oil with low adhe-
sive additive content.

1.
Unscrew the oil fill cap (2) and fill
up with chain oil.
2. Wipe off any spilled oil and close
the cap again.
Always switch off the device and
allow the motor to cool before
filling with chain oil. There is a
risk of fire if oil overflows.
