immediately and keep engine speed at low level.
4.9. Chain tension adjustment.
Cutting chain tends to lengthen during operation due to higher temperature. Longer chain loosens
and may slip off the guide bar.
Loosen the guide bar fixing nuts (7).
Ensure the chain (21) remains in the guiding groove of the guide bar (20).
Use a screwdriver to turn the chain tension adjustment screw (8) clockwise, until the chain is
strained appropriately (it should slightly hold the guide bar in horizontal position).
Check the chain tension again (it should be possible to lift the chain by approximately 3 - 4 mm in
the middle of the guide bar).
Tighten firmly the guide bar fixing nuts (7).
Do not over-tension the chain. Adjustment of overly heated chain may lead to excessive tension
when cooling down.
4.10. Operating the chain saw.
Before starting any planned task, familiarize yourself with section describing safe rules for chain
saw operation. It is recommended to gain experience by cutting waste wood pieces. It will also allow
to find out the chain saw possibilities.
Always observe safety regulations.
Use the chain saw only for cutting wood. Cutting other materials is forbidden.
Intensity of vibrations and recoil change depending on the type of wood being cut.
Do not use the chain saw as a lever to lift, move or split objects. When the chain is pinched in wood,
switch off the engine and drive wooden or plastic wedge into the processed piece to release the chain
saw. Start the tool again and commence cutting carefully.
Do not fix the saw to a stationary work station.
Attaching other devices, which are not allowed by the chain saw manufacturer, to the chain saw
drive is forbidden.
It is not necessary to apply big force to the chain saw when using the tool. Apply light pressure only
while the engine operates with the throttle fully opened.
When the chain saw is pinched in kerf during cutting, do not remove it forcefully. It may cause loss
of control over the chain saw, operator injury and/or damage to the chain saw.
Release the chain brake before starting to work.
Press the throttle lever lock (1) and throttle lever (11) (wait until engine reaches its full speed before
starting to cut).
Keep maximum speed for the whole time.
Allow the chain to cut wood. Press down the saw lightly.
Stop pressing the saw at the end of the cut to avoid losing control over the tool.
When the cutting has been finished release the throttle lever (11) and allow the engine to run idle.
Switch off the engine before putting the chain saw away.
Keeping high speed of the engine when not cutting wood causes unnecessary losses and wear of
parts.
4.11. Protection against recoil.
Recoil is movement of the guide bar of the chain saw up and/or back, which happens when the part
of the chain on the guide bar tip encounters an obstacle.
Ensure the processed material is firmly fixed.
Use clamps to fix the material.
Hold the chain saw with both hands when starting up and during operation.
During recoil the chain saw cannot be controlled and the chain is loosened.
Incorrectly sharpened chain increases risk of recoil.
Do not cut above level of your shoulders.
Avoid cutting with guide bar tip, it may cause sudden recoil - to the back and up. Always use
complete safety equipment and appropriate working clothes when operating the chain saw.
Disassembly of protections, inappropriate operation, maintenance, improper guide bar or chain
replacement may contribute to increase of risk of body injury in case of recoil. Never modify the saw in
