For your safety and that

of others:

– Correct maintenance is essential to main-

tain the original eciency and safety of the

machine over time.

– Keep all nuts, bolts and screws tight to be

sure the equipment is in safe working con-

dition.

– Never use the machine with worn or dam-

aged parts. Damaged parts are to be re-

placed and never repaired.

– Only use original spare parts. Parts that are

not of the same quality can seriously dam-

age the equipment and compromise safety.

During maintenance oper-

ations:

– Unplug the machine from the mains.

– Use protective gloves when handling the

bar and chain.

– Keep the bar protection devices on, except

when intervening directly on the bar or the

chain.

– Never dispose of oils or other polluting ma-

te rials in unauthorised places.

1. ENGINE COOLING

To avoid overheating and damage to the engine,

always keep the cooling air vents clean and free

of sawdust and debris.

2. CHAIN BRAKE

Regularly check the eciency of the chain brake.

3. CHAIN SPROCKET (Fig. 20)

Regularly check the condition of the sprocket and

replace it when wear exceeds 0.5 mm.

Do not mount a new chain with a worn sprocket

or vice-versa.

4. CHAIN CATCHER

This is an important safety device that restrains the

chain if it breaks or degrooves.

WARNING!

Regularly check the condition of the chain catcher

and replace it if it gets damaged.

5. NUTS AND SCREWS

Periodically check that all the nuts and screws are

securely tightened and the handgrips are tightly

fastened.

6. SHARPENING THE CHAIN

To ensure that the chain-

saw works safely and eciently, it is essential

that the cutting components are well-sharp-

ened. Any work on the chain and bar require

specic experience and special tools. For

safety purposes, we recommend you contact

your dealer to ensure work is done correctly.

Sharpening is necessary when:

• The sawdust looks like dust.

• Cutting becomes more dicult.

• The cut is not straight.

• Vibrations increase.

A specialized centre will sharpen the chain using

the right tools to ensure minimum removal of ma-

terial and even sharpness on all the cutting edges.

If you sharpen the chain yourself, use special

round-section les with the right diameter de pen-

ding on the type of chain (see “Chain Main te nance

Table”). You need a certain amount of skill and

experience to avoid damaging the cutting edges.

Sharpen the chain as follows (Fig. 21):

– Disconnect the machine from the mains, re-

lea se the chain brake and secure the bar with

the chain in a vice so that the chain can run

smoothly.

– Tighten the chain if it is loose.

– Mount the le in the guide and then insert it in

the tooth at a constant angle from the cutting

edge.

– Sharpen in a forward motion a few times and

repeat this on all the cutting edges facing the
