Maintenance and care
remainder from underneath, up as far as the cut
made from above (11).
DANGER! Danger of fatal injury due to
kickback!
The operator can be fatally injured by
kickback of the appliance.
■
It is essential to comply with the measures in
order to avoid any kickback.
14.4 Cutting converted timber (12)
Heed the following points during this work:
■
Use a secure cutting surface (sawing trestle,
wedges, beams).
■
Make sure you are standing securely and
that your bodyweight is evenly distributed.
■
Secure logs to prevent them twisting.
■
Only start the cut once the saw chain is run-
ning. Never switch on the chain saw already
in the kerf.
■
Do not secure the wood with your foot and do
not get another person to hold it.
15 MAINTENANCE AND CARE
WARNING! Danger of lacerations.
Danger
of cutting injuries when reaching into sharp-
edged, moving appliance parts and into cutting
tools.
■
Before maintenance, care and cleaning work,
always switch off the appliance. Remove the
rechargeable battery.
■
Always wear protective gloves during mainte-
nance, care and cleaning work.
The chain saw complies with all relevant safety
standards. Repairs are only allowed to be per-
formed by qualified specialists, and with the ex-
clusive use of genuine spare parts.
■
After each use, check the chain saw for wear
and renew any damaged components.
■
Do not get the machine wet or expose it to
moisture. Clean plastic parts with a cloth and
do not use any cleaning agents or solvents.
■
Clean the cooling air slots if they are blocked.
■
Do not spray the chain saw not with water
and do not use a high-pressure cleaner.
■
Only use spare parts specified by the manu-
facturer.
15.1 Sharpening the saw chain (13)
DANGER! Danger of fatal injury due to
kickback!
Improperly sharpened saw chain in-
creases the danger of kickback and thus the dan-
ger of fatal injury.
■
Sharpen the saw chain properly to reduce the
risk of kickback.
CAUTION! Danger of injury from the saw
chain!
The sharp edges of the saw chain can
cause serious laceration injuries.
■
Wear protective gloves when resharpening
the saw chain.
IMPORTANT! Damage to the machine due
to incorrect sharpening!
Uneven cutting teeth
mean that the chain runs roughly and may even
break. All cutting teeth must have the same
length and width after sharpening.
■
Sharpen the saw chain properly.
NOTE
Inexperienced chain saw operators
are recommended to have the saw chain sharp-
ened by a specialist at the customer service.
Do not work with a blunt or damaged saw chain.
The consequences include physical strain, a poor
cutting result and high levels of chain wear.
To achieve an optimum cutting result, it is neces-
sary for the saw chain to be resharpened at regu-
lar intervals.
A correctly sharpened saw chain reduces the
danger of kickback and prevents high levels of
wear.
Sharpening is required if:
■
The saw chips are like sawdust.
■
Greater force is necessary for cutting.
■
The cut is not straight.
■
Vibration increases.
■
Fuel consumption increases.
To sharpen the chain:
1. Switch off the chain saw and remove the re-
chargeable battery.
2. Check the chain tension and adjust it if nec-
essary.
3. Only use a suitable tool for sharpening:
Round chain file Ø = 4.0 mm, file guide,
chain gauge.
These tools are available from specialist re-
tailers.
