GB-5
• Apply little pressure to the machine when sawing
wood. If the chain is keen, it will cut almost by itself
through the wood.
• If possible, always work with the chainsaw running at
high speed.
• Never try to continue sawing with a blunt chain. That
causes the motor to overheat and the loss of your right
to claim under guarantee. Always have a replacement
chain at hand.
• Allow the motor to cool off and make working breaks.
• After use always place the chain saw horizontally to
avoid oil dripping from the oil reservoir.
• Always use the chain cover when transporting the
chain saw.
Maintenance and Servicing
Always withdraw the plug when carrying out mainte-
nance and servicing.
• Always remove wood shavings and oil from your chain
saw after use. Ensure in particular that the motor ven‑
tilation slits for cooling the motor in the housing of the
chain saw is free (danger of overheating).
• If the saw chain is particularly dirty, e.g. in case of
gum‑ming with resin, remove the chain and clean it.
Place the chain for a few hours in a vessel containing
chainsaw cleaner. There‑after clean the chain with
clear water. If the chain is not used again immediately,
it must be treated with service spray or a customary
anticorrosion‑spray.
• Only in case of use of biological oil: As some biologi
‑
cal oils may tend to incrustation after a time, the oiling
system should be rinsed thoroughly before storing the
chain saw for a longer period. Therefore, please fill
half of the oil reservoir (about 70 ml) with chainsaw
cleaner and close it as usually. Then switch on the
chainsaw ‑ without bar and chain being mounted ‑ and
keep it running until the total rinsing liquid has evapu‑
rated through the oil opening of the chain saw. Before
using the chain saw again, it is absolutely necessary
to refill the oil reservoir.
• Do not store the saw outdoors or in damp and moist
areas.
• Check all the chain saw parts, in particular the chain,
bar and sprocket, of wear after every use.
• Ensure that the chain tension is correct. If the chain
is too loose, it may come off during use and lead to
injuries. The chain must be replaced immediately if it
is damaged. The cutting teeth must be at least 4 mm
long.
• Check the motor housing and power cable after every
use for damage. If there is any sign of damage, have
the chain saw checked by a specialised workshop or
the works after‑sales service.
• Check the oil level and lubrication of your chain saw
after every use. Insufficient lubrication leads to dam
‑
age to the chain, bar and motor.
• Check how keen the chain is every time before you
use the chain saw. A blunt chain will cause overheating
of the motor.
• Sharpening a saw chain requires experience and spe
‑
cialised knowledge. We therefore recommend to have
sharpening carried out by a specialised workshop.
In the case of technical problems
•
The machine does not start up:
Check whether the
current socket is live. Check whether the power cable
is undamaged. If neither case applies, take the chain
saw to a specialised workshop or the works after‑sales
service.
•
Chain does not run:
Check position of handguard
(see ill. 7). Chain only runs if handguard brake is re‑
leased.
•
Sparks fly at the motor:
Motor or carbon brushes
damaged. Take the chain saw to a specialised work‑
shop or the works after‑sales service.
•
Oil does not flow:
Check the oil level. Clean the oil
flow openings in the bar (see also the corresponding
hints of “Maintenance and servicing). If this is not
successful, take the chain saw to a specialised work‑
shop or the works after‑sales service.
Attention: Any maintenance or repair work going
beyond that described in these Operating In-
structions may only be carried out by authorised
persons or the works after-sales service.
Attention: If the power supply lead of this device
shows any defects, the lead must be replaced by
an authorized repair shop only or through the
manufacturer’s own service personnel, as this
work requires special tools.

Repairs to electric power tools should only be carried out
by specialist electrical personnel.
Waste disposal and environmental protection
