Fittingtheguidebarandchain.(g.A-E)

u Place the chainsaw onto a stable surface.

u Set the front guard/chain brake assembly to the forward

position (fig. D).

u Fully loosen the control knob (9) (fig. A)

u Remove the chain cover assembly (10).

u Place the chain (6) over the guide bar (7) making sure that

the saw chain cutters on the upper part of the guide bar

(7) face towards the front (fig. B).

u Guide the chain (6) around the guide bar (7) and pull it to

create a loop to one side at the rear end of the guide bar

(7).

u Guide the chain (6) around the drive sprocket (12). Place

the guide bar (7) onto the bar location studs (13) (fig. E).

Warning! Make sure that the front guard/chain brake

assembly (4) is in the set (forward) position before retting

(g. C).

u Before fitting the chain cover assembley check that the

cam (11) (fig. B) is in the correct position. If necessary,

press in and turn the control knob (9) clockwise to rotate

the cam into the correct position.

u Fit the chain cover by locating the bolt and using the

control knob (9) to tighten the chain cover finger tight.

u To tension the chain, loosen the control knob one full turn,

press in firmly and rotate clockwise. As the bar moves

forward make sure that the chain links feed into the guide

bar.

u Allow the control knob to spring back to the „out“ position

and rotate further clockwise to tighten the guide bar. Do

not overtighten.

u Check the tension as described below.

Checking and adjusting the chain tension

(g.G)

Before use and after every 10 minutes of use, you must

check the chain tension.

u Disconnect the tool from the mains supply.

u Lightly pull on the chain (6) as shown (inset fig. G). The

tension is correct when the chain (6) snaps back after

being pulled 3 mm away from the guide bar (7). There

should be no "sag" between the guide bar (7) and the

chain (6) on the underside.

Note: Do not over-tension the chain as this will lead to

excessive wear and will reduce the life of the guide bar and

the chain.

Note: When the chain is new, check the tension frequently

(after disconnecting from the mains) during the rst 2 hours

of use because a new chain stretches slightly.

To increase the tension

u Loosen the control knob one full turn, press in firmly and

rotate clockwise untill the required tension is reached. As

the bar moves forward make sure that the chain links feed

into the guide bar.

u Allow the control knob to spring back to the „out“ position

and rotate further clockwise to tighten the guide bar. Do

not overtighten.

Use

Warning! Let the tool work at its own pace. Do not overload.

Fillingtheoilreservoir(g.F)

u Remove the oil cap (3) and fill the reservoir with the

recommended chain oil. You can see the oil level in the oil

level indicator (5). Refit the oil cap (3).

u Periodically switch off and check the oil level indicator (5);

if it is less than a quarter full, disconnect your chainsaw

from the mains supplyand refill with the correct oil.

Switching on

Note: It will not be possible to switch the tool on if the

front guard/chain brake assembly is not in the "set"

position.

u Grip your chainsaw firmly with both hands. Push the

lock-off button (2) and then push the on/off switch (1) to

start.

u When the motor starts, remove your thumb from the lock

button (2) and grip the handle firmly.

Do not force the tool, allow the tool to do the work.

It will do a better and safer job at the speed for which it is

designed. Excessive force will stretch the saw chain (6).

u Make sure that the tool is disconnected from the mains

supply.

u Pull the front guard/chain brake assembly (4) back into the

"set" (fig. C) position.

u The tool is now ready to use.

How the anti-kickback chain brake works

In the event of kickback, your left hand comes in contact with

the front guard, pushing it forwards, toward the workpiece,

and stops the tool within a few fractions of a second.

Howtotesttheanti-kickbackchainbrake(g.C)

u Always check that the kickback brake operates correctly

before use.

u Grip the tool firmly in both hands on a firm surface make

sure the saw chain (6) is clear of the ground and switch on

(see" How to switch the chainsaw on").
