OPERATION
Chain oil
Attention!
The battery cannot be charged
immediately after use, it should be left to cool down
for a period of time. The LED lights on the charger
switching from green to red, meaning the battery
can be charged.
Switching on/off
NOTE:
Hold the chain saw away from yourself
using both hands. Stand in a secure and stable
position.
i. Push the safety switch (14) forward and press the on/off
switch (13) to turn the product on.
ii. Release the on/off switch (13) to turn the product off.
Check the oil supply
NOTE!
With the chainsaw fully assembled and
adjusted it is important to check the chain oil
supply is dispensing adequate lubrication.
After switching on, run the chain and see if chain oil is being
dispensed as shown.
OPERATION
Important!
It is very important to adjust the chain tension if the
chain is loose.
Check if the chain is loose every 10mins.
Chain Tension
1. Loosen the lock knob B before adjusting the chain.
2. Turn the chain tension knob until slack is out of chain.
3. Whilst wearing protective gloves, pull down on the chain to
check the chain tension.
4. Do not use excessive tension on the chain. Doing this will
cause excessive wear and will reduce the life of the guide
bar and chain. Using excessive tension will also reduce the
amount of cuts per battery charge.
5. Only when the tension on the chain is right, then tighten the
tension wheel firmly.
NOTE!
When tensioned correctly it should be
possible to pull one full chain link free of the bar
channel with ease.
- A new chain will expand its length during the first
period of use. Check and re-adjust the tension
frequently as a loose chain can easily derail or
cause rapid wear of itself and the chain bar.
CAUTION!
If the saw chain is TOO LOOSE or
TOO TIGHT the V-drive wheel, chain bar, chain
and crank shaft bearing will suffer premature wear.
Right Fig. shows the correct tension A (when cold)
and tension B (when warm). Fig. C shows a chain
that is too loose.
