Transport
Sharpen the saw chain frequently, without remov-
ing much material while doing so. After sharpen-
ing 3 to 4 times yourself, have the saw chain re-
sharpened by a specialist workshop. This also in-
volves resharpening the depth limiter.
Renew the saw chain as soon as the minimum
cutting tooth length of 4 mm (13) is reached.
8.2 Cleaning the chain sprocket interior
Thoroughly clean the chain saw after each use.
1. Remove the rechargeable battery and place
the chain saw on a stable base.
2. Unscrew the sprocket cover.
3. Clean the inside with a suitable brush.
4. Remove the saw chain and take out the
chain bar.
5. Clean the groove in the bar and the oil inlet
hole.
8.3 Changing over the quick-tension chain
wheel (16)
1. Remove the guide rail (16/1).
2. Unscrew the Phillips screw (16/3) and re-
lease the adapter sheet metal from the guide
rail with the tensioning hook (16/2).
3. Turn the guide rail around the longitudinal ax-
is.
4. Attach the adapter sheet metal to the chain
bar with the tensioning hook again and fix in
place with the Phillips screw again.
5. Mount the chain bar again, see chapter 4.1
"Installing the guide rail (05, 06)", page57.
8.4 Checking, turning and greasing the
guide rail (14, 15)
Checking the guide rail
Regularly check the guide rail for damage. Re-
move any projecting burrs (14).
Turning the guide rail
The chain bar must be turned over after each
chain sharpening and chain change in order to
avoid one-sided wear.
1. Change over the quick-tension chain wheel
on the guide rail, see chapter 8.3 "Changing
over the quick-tension chain wheel (16)",
page67.
2. Turn the guide rail.
Greasing the guide rail
1. Carefully clean groove in bar (14/1) and oil
inlet hole (14/2).
2. Carefully clean lubricating hole (15/1) from
both sides.
3. Use a suitable grease gun to pump in suffi-
cient grease from both sides in succession
until the grease emerges evenly at the tips of
the sprocket. Keep turning the sprocket when
doing this.
