SAFETY PROTECTIVE CLOTHING



Major cases of electric chainsaw accidents

happen when the chain hits the operator.

While working with the electric chainsaw,

always use safety protective approved

clothing. The use of protective clothing does

not eliminate injury risks, but it reduces the

injury effects in case of accident. Consult

your trusted supplier to choose an adequate

equipment.

The clothing must be proper and not an

obstacle. Wear adherent anti-cut clothing. Efco

anti-cut jackets, dungarees and leggings are

the ideal. Do not wear clothes, scarves, ties or

bracelets that can stuck into woods or twigs.

Tie up and protect long hair (example with

foulards, cap, helmets, etc.)

Safety shoes or boots having skid-proof sole

and anti-piercing insert.

Wear protective helmet in places where there

can be falling objects.

Wear protective goggles or face screens!

Use protections against noises; for example

noise reduction ear guards or earplugs.

The use of protections for the ear requests

much more attention and caution, because the

perception of danger audio signals (screamings,

alarms, etc.) is limited.

Wear anti-cut gloves.

Efco offers a complete range of safety

equipments.

4. FITTING THE BAR AND CHAIN



WARNING - Unplug the power cord

from the mains socket outlet before

performing maintenance work. Always wear

work gloves during assembly procedures. Use

only bars and chains recommended by the

manufacturer (page 33).

- Pull the cover (Fig.4) towards the front grip

to check that the chain brake is not engaged.

- Turn the knob (A, Fig.5) anti-clockwise and

remove the guard (B).

- Ensure chain tensioner disk (C) on bar (E) is

set to the correct position; turn it anti-

clockwise if necessary (Fig.6).

- Fit the chain (D, Fig.7) with the cutting edges

facing the direction of run and insert it into

the channel on the bar.

- To assemble the bar (E, Fig.8) and chain (D),

align them with sprocket (F) and stud (G).

Wrap the chain around the sprocket and

then fit the bar over the stud. Turn disk (C)

clockwise to pre-tension the chain.

- Refit the guard (B, Fig.10) inserting the guide

(L, Fig.9) into its location and lightly

tightening the knob (A, Fig.10). Do not

tighten the knob fully; first, you must tension

the chain. While tightening the knob rotate

ring (H) back and forth to cause it to engage

correctly with disk (C) on the bar. NOTE:

chain (D) is not yet tensioned.

Chain tensioning

Always check the chain tension before using

the chainsaw and after making the first few

cuts. Regularly check the chain tension when

using the tool. After starting to use the tool,

new chains may stretch considerably; this is to

be considered normal during the running-in

period.



WARNING - Always maintain the correct

chain tension. An excessively slack chain

increases the risk of kickback and the chain may

ride out of the bar channel; these events can

cause injury the operator and damage to the

chain. An excessively slack chain will result in

rapid wear of chain, bar and sprocket. On the

contrary, an over tensioned chain will tend to

overload the motor with resulting damage. A

correctly tensioned chain provides the best

cutting characteristics, optimal safety, and

long working life of the chain. The working

life of the chain depends on correct tensioning

and correct lubrication.

- Turn the ring (H, Fig.10) until chain (D) nearly

touches the lower edge of bar (E).

- Check chain tension by lifting it with your
