Checking the automatic oil function
Check the automatic operation of the chain lubrication by pointing the tip of the switched
–on saw towards a piece of paper laying on the ground, if a patch of oil appears and
becomes larger, then the automatic oil function is working. If there are no traces of oil
even though the oil tank is full. Then the automatic oil function is not working .
If the automatic oil function is not working . remove the chain bar and clean out the oil
ways of the chainsaw and chain bar, on reassemble if the chainsaw is still not working
take it to a autorised if the chainsaw is still not working take it to an autorised service
centre.
KICKBACK
Warning: kickback may occur when the nose or tip of the guide bar touches an object, or
when the wood closes in and pinches the saw chain in the cut. Tip contact in some cases
may cause a lightning fast reverse reaction. Kicking the guide bar up and back towards
the operator, pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may push the guide
bar rapidly back towards the operator, either of these reactions may cause you to lose
control of the saw which could result in serious injury to user.
