NOTE:
ONLY USE OIL THAT IS EXPRESSLY LABELLED
“CHAIN BAR OIL”.
2. CHAIN BAR OIL
1. Remove the chain bar oil cap and fill the tank. Chain Bar Oil Tank
Capacity: 125ml
2. Refit cap and clean
any oil spillage.
3. Always fill the oil tank when the
oil level is below the minimum
mark on the oil level window.
4. To check the lubricating system, switch on the chainsaw and hold
it with the guide bar and chain above some light coloured paper
such as newspaper. A steadily increasing stain caused by oil spray
shows the lubricating system is working.
WARNING!:
NEVER START WORK UNLESS THE
CHAIN AND BAR ARE LUBRICATED.
NOTE:
THE CHAIN SHOULD BE ADJUSTED BEFORE
FIRST USE, AGAIN AFTER 2-3 MINUTES OPERATION
AND RECHECKED AND ADJUSTED IF NECESSARY
AFTER EACH FURTHER 30 MINUTES OF USE. TAKE
CARE NOT TO OVER TENSION THE CHAIN.
5. Adjust the chain
tensioning screw (C)
until the bolt (A) fits into
the hole in the guide bar.
6. Fit the side panel back onto the
chainsaw and replace the bar
securing nut finger tight only.
7. Adjust the tension on the chain using the chain tension screw (C).
The tension is correct when the
chain can be pulled 3mm away
from the guide bar when using
your finger and thumb.
Do not over-tighten as this will
reduce the life of the chain and
guide bar.
8. Tighten the bar securing nut.
9. Replace the bar securing nut
cover.
A
C
3mm gap is
the ideal tension
NOTE:
CHAIN BAR OIL MAY LEAK IF THE TOOL IS
LEFT FOR LONG PERIODS. THIS IS NORMAL. IF THE
TOOL IS TO BE LEFT UNUSED FOR AN EXTENDED
TIME, DRAIN THE OIL FROM THE TOOL. REFILL
BEFORE USE.
