GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
English 13
Keep the chain properly tensioned! If the chain is
slack it is more likely to jump off and lead to increased
wear on the bar, chain and drive sprocket.
Keep cutting equipment well lubricated and
properly maintained! A poorly lubricated chain is
more likely to break and lead to increased wear on the
bar, chain and drive sprocket.
Specification of bar and saw chain
When the cutting attachment supplied with your machine
has to be replaced, because it is worn out or damaged,
you must only fit the types of bar and saw chain
recommended by us.

links of the chain must match the spacing of the teeth
on the bar tip sprocket and drive sprocket.

determined by the length of the bar, the chain pitch
and the number of teeth on the bar tip sprocket.

must match the width of the chain drive links.
