ENGLISH CHAINSAW Know your chainsaw ◆ Warning! When using electric tools, basic safety precautions should always be taken to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock and personal injury. Read this user manual carefully, observing all of the recommended safety instructions before, during and after use of your chainsaw. Maintain your chainsaw in good working order.
ENGLISH ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ Warning! The use of an accessory or attachment other than those recommended in this user manual may present a risk of personal injury. For all types of cutting, always hold the saw firmly with both hands, with thumbs and fingers encircling the saw handles. Do not release your grip until your chainsaw has stopped moving. Be sure of your footing and pre-plan a safe exit from a falling tree or branches.
ENGLISH To ensure continued safe operation, check the chain tension as described in this manual after every 10 minutes of use, and adjust back to a clearance of 3 mm as required. ◆ ◆ Double insulation Your chainsaw is double insulated. This means that all external metal parts are electrically isolated from the power supply. This is achieved by placing an extra insulation barrier between the electrical and mechanical parts.
ENGLISH The new connection system does not release the operator of the tool from the safety precautions and safe working practices given in the manual. Particular attention is drawn to the fact that this connection system is ‘weather resistant’, but not suitable for immersion, submersion or being subjected to water jets. Take care to prevent the cable from lying in or trailing through pools of water or from splashing with hose pipes.
ENGLISH The extension cable contains two wires, which are colour coded for easy identification: brown is for Live (L), blue is for Neutral (N). The connector is marked ‘L’ for Live and ‘N’ for Neutral. These markings are located inside the body near the terminal screws (see below). ◆ Lift out the cable protector. ◆ Pass the cable through from the narrow end of the cable protector. ◆ Prepare the cable ends to the strip length shown in the illustration. ◆ Remove the cable clamp.
ENGLISH ◆ ◆ We recommend that you use only one brand of oil during the lifetime of your chainsaw because mixtures of different oils could lead to the oil becoming degraded, which can drastically shorten the lifetime of the saw chain. Never use waste oil, thick oil or very thin sewing machine oil. These may damage your chainsaw. Fitting the guide bar and chain (fig. B, C & D) Wear protective gloves. ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ Place the saw onto a stable surface.
ENGLISH How to test the anti-kickback chainbrake ◆ Grip the tool firmly in both hands on a firm surface - make sure the chain is clear of the ground and switch on (see “How to switch your chainsaw on”). ◆ Rotate your left hand forward around the front handle so that the back of your hand comes in contact with the front guard and pushes it backwards (fig. G). The chain should stop within a few fractions of a second.
ENGLISH ◆ On reassembling, the guide bar should be turned through 180° and the sprocket nose greased via the sprocket lubrication hole (18). This ensures an even distribution of wear around the guide bar rails. Saw chain sharpening If you are to get the best possible performance from the tool it is important to keep the teeth of the saw chain sharp. Guidance for this procedure is found on the sharpener package.
