7. Pull the saw chain (C7) along the top of the guide bar (C6) by hand from one end
to the other, several times. The chain should feel tight but still move freely. It should
be possible to lift up the saw chain (C7) 3-4 mm from the guide bar (C6) (Fig. 7).

WARNING!
The machine is not filled with chain oil. It is essential to fill the
machine with chain oil before using it! Never operate the machine without chain
oil as this will result in extensive damage to the machine! Operating the saw
chain dry or with too little chain oil will decrease cutting efficiency, shorten the
machine life span and cause rapid wear to the saw chain and guide bar from
overheating! Insufficient chain oil is evident by smoke or bar discoloration!
Adequate lubrication of the saw chain during cutting operations is essential to
minimise friction with the guide bar (C6).
8. Place the machine on a stable, level surface with the oil filler cap (C4) facing upwards.
We recommend laying a non-flammable sheet under the attachment.
9. Unscrew the oil filler cap (C4).
10. Fill suitable saw chain oil into the oil tank (C5) using a funnel fitted with a filter to avoid
debris entering the tank. Leave approximately 5 mm of space between the top of the
saw chain oil and the inside edge of the tank to allow for expansion. Do not overfill.
