Assembly
Before performing any work on the equipment, pull the power plug.
Assembly the guide bar and saw chain
The guide bar and saw chain are supplied separately. To assemble, first unscrew the lock nut
(5.1) and remove the guide bar cover (6).
Before assembling the guide bar with the saw chain, check the cutting direction of the teeth!
The running direction is marked with an arrow on the cover (6).
Then assemble the guide bar with the saw chain as follows:
Place the guide bar with the saw chain on the chain wheel.
Place the saw chain round the chain wheel and make sure it is correctly mounted .
Place the cover (6) on top and tighten gently with the lock nut (5.1).
Sawchain tensionning
Turn the outer Knob (5.2) clockwise until the saw chain is correctly tensioned, then rotate the
inside knob (5.1) to block the guide bar in that position.
While the inside knob is being tightened, the guide bar must then be pushed upwards. Check
the chain tension again. Do not tension the chain too tightly.
o
When cold, it should be possible to lift the chain in the middle of the guide bar
approx. 5 mm. Tighten the lock nut (5.1) securely.
o
When warm, the saw chain will expand and slacken and there is a danger of it
jumping off the rail altogether. Re-tension if necessary.
o
If the saw chain is re-tensioned when hot, it must be loosened again when the
sawing work has been completed. Otherwise, the contraction which takes place as
the chain cools would result in excessively high tension.
A new saw chain requires a running-in period of approx 0.5 minutes. Chain lubrication is very
important at this stage. After running in, check chain tension and re-tension if necessary.
Filling in chain oil
To prevent dirt getting inside the tank, clean the oil tank cap (12) before opening. Check the
contents of the oil tank by checking the oil gauge (13). Close the oil tank cap tightly and wipe
away any spills.
Min.:
When only approx. 5 mm of oil is visible at the lower rim of the oil gauge (13), you must top
up with oil.
Max.:
Top up with oil until the window is full.
