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.
B
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
faster. You can identify a case of
too little oil where smoke develop-
ment or discoloration of the rail oc-
curs.
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 (
C
20). The oil tank holds
270 ml oil.
• Use Parkside 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.
C
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 be-
fore filling with chain oil. There
is a risk of fire if oil overflows.
Operating the chainsaw
Switch on the chainsaw only when
chain bar, saw chain and sprocket
chain wheel covering are correctly
assembled. Ensure the voltage of
the mains connection agrees with
the label on the device. Make sure
you have a secure stance
Note
: The saw is a high-powered
device, where a 13 A fuse gener-
ally suffices, provided that further
current consumers with high ser-
vice are not connected. However,
if the premises installations are
not implemented optimally and
“quick-acting” protection fuses are
built-in (e.g. B 16), the protection
fuse will be activated due to the
current peaks during switch-on.
