SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Tensioning the saw chain
• The more you use a chain the longer it becomes. It is
therefore important to adjust the chain regularly to
take up the slack.
• Check the chain tension every time you refuel. NOTE!
A new chain has a running-in period during which you
should check the tension more frequently.
• Tension the chain as tightly as possible, but not so
tight that you cannot pull it round freely by hand.
1 Undo the bar nut.
2 Raise the tip of the bar and stretch the chain by
tightening the chain tensioning screw using the
combination spanner. Tighten the chain until it does
not sag from the underside of the bar.
3 Use the combination spanner to tighten the blade nut
while holding up the tip of the bar. Check that you can
pull the saw chain round freely by hand.
Lubricating cutting equipment
Chain oil
• Chain oil must demonstrate good adhesion to the
chain and also maintain its flow characteristics
regardless of whether it is warm summer or cold
winter weather.
• As a chainsaw manufacturer we have developed an
optimal chain oil which, with its vegetable oil base, is
also biodegradable. We recommend the use of our
own oil for both maximum chain life and to minimise
environmental damage.
• If our own chain oil is not available, standard chain oil
is recommended.
• In areas where oil specifically for lubrication of saw
chains is unavailable, ordinary EP 90 transmission oil
may be used.
• Never use waste oil! This is dangerous for yourself,
the machine and the environment.
Filling with chain oil
The oil pump is preset at the factory to meet most
lubrication requirements. A full oil tank will last about half
as long as a full tank of fuel. You should therefore check
the level of oil in the oil tank regularly to avoid damage to
the saw chain and bar that could occur due to lack of
lubrication.
Checking chain lubrication
Check the chain lubrication each time you refuel. Aim the
tip of the bar at a light coloured surface about 20 cm (8
!
WARNING! A slack chain may jump off
and cause serious or even fatal injury.
!
WARNING! Poor lubrication of cutting
equipment may cause the chain to snap,
which could lead to serious, even fatal
injuries.
