3.5 Throttle control lock and throttle control

To release the throttle control (11):

• Hold the rear handle with your right hand - the

throttle control lock (10) is activated by the flat of

your hand

! The throttle control is released.

3.6 Chain lubrication adjusting screw

Your new SOLO chainsaw is equipped with an automatic chain lubrication system which

automatically stops the delivery of oil when the chainsaw is idling (Eco-Matic). When the

throttle is operated and the saw chain is driven again the chain lubrication automatically

restarts.

To adjust the amount of oil delivered by this system during operation, the

control screw (28) on the underside of the chainsaw can be adjusted

approximately two turns from plus(+) to minus(-).

As a guideline, we recommend that if you are using 38cm cutting gear to cut

wood which is still moist then the mid-position between (+) and (-) is a good

starting point. Adjust the controls to deliver slightly more oil if you are cutting

dry wood.

3.7 Grip heating (models 651H / 656H only)

On the 651H and 656H models, the electric grip

heating can be switched on via the switch (9)

(move the switch to the top position

!).

Heat builds up slowly both via the front handle for the left

hand and via the rear handle for the right hand - in similar

fashion to the rear window heating system on a car.

Particularly in applications in a damp environment, under

cold temperatures or high humidity the grip heating helps to

prevent working gloves from becoming excessively soaked

and stimulates circulation to the hands.
