Important: The chain saw is not supplied

filled with oil. It is essential to fill with oil

before use. Never operate the chain saw

without chain oil or at an empty oil tank level, as

this will result in extensive damage to the prod-

uct.

Chain life and cutting capacity depend on optimum

lubrication. Therefore, the chain is automatically

oiled during operation via the oil outlet 19.

Filling oil tank:

– Set chain saw on any suitable surface with oil filler

cap 4 facing upward.

– Clean area around the oil filler cap 4 with cloth,

unscrew cap.

– Add Bosch biodegradable chain saw oil until res-

ervoir is full.

– Avoid dirt or debris entering oil tank, refit oil filler

cap 4 and tighten.

Important: To allow venting of the oil res-

ervoir,small breather channels are pro-

vided between the oil filler cap , to prevent

leakage ensure machine is left in a horizontal po-

sition (oil filler cap 4 uppermost) when not in

use.

It is important to use only the recommended bi-

odegradable oil to avoid damage to the chain

saw. Never use recycled/old oil. Use of non ap-

proved oil will invalidate the warranty.

Observe the correct mains voltage! The voltage

of the power source must agree with the value given

on the nameplate of the machine. Machines desig-

nated for 230 V can also be operated with 220 V.

Starting

Hold chain saw as described in “Cutting”.

Press the lock-off button 3, then fully press the On/

Off switch 2 and hold in this position. The lock-off

button 3 can now be released.

Stopping

Release the On/Off switch 2.

Do not stop chain saw after sawing by activating

the front hand guard (kickback brake).

The kickback brake is a safety mechanism acti-

vated through the front hand guard 5, when kickback

occurs. Chain stops immediately.

The following function check should be carried out at

regular intervals. Push front hand guard 5 forward

(position ➋) and start the chain saw. The chain must

not start. To deactivate the kickback brake, release

On/Off switch 2 and pull hand guard 5 backwards

(position ➊).

Before Cutting

Before and periodically during cutting check as fol-

lows:

– Is the chain saw in a fail-safe condition?

– Is the oil reservoir filled? Check oil level

gauge 26 prior to starting and regularly during op-

eration. Refill oil when oil level is low. The oil tank

filling will last approx. 15 minutes, depending on

sawing intensity and stops.

– Is the chain tension in order and is the chain

sharp? Check chain tension every 10 minutes

during operation. Upon initial operation, new

chains can lengthen considerably. The condition

of the chain influences the the cutting perform-

ance. Only a sharp chain protects from overload.

– Is the kickback brake deactivated and its function

ensured?

– Are you wearing the necessary protective equip-

ment? Wear safety glasses and hearing protec-

tion. Further protective equipment for head, hand,

legs and feet is recommend. Adequate protective

clothing will reduce personal injury by flying de-

bris or accidental contact with saw chain.

Kickback

Kickback is the sudden backward/upward motion of

the chain saw, occuring when the chain (at the tip of

the chain bar) comes in contact with a log or wood,

or when the chain becomes jammed.

When kickback occurs the chainsaw reacts unpred-

icably and can cause severe injuries to the operator

or bystanders.

Particular attention must be given when sawing

sidewards, slanted or during length cuts, as the grip-

ping teeth 11 usually can not be applied.
