SAFETY FEATURES
Numbers preceding the descriptions correspond with
the numbers on this page to help you locate the safety
feature.
1. Chain brake lever / Guard
protects the operator’s
left hand in the event it slips off the front handle
while saw is running. Chain brake is a safety feature
designed to reduce the possibility of injury due to
kickback by stopping a moving saw chain in milli
-
seconds. It is activated by the chain brake lever.
14. Spiked bumper
is used for your personal safety
and ease of cutting. The spiked bumper will in-
crease your stability while performing vertical cut
-
ting.
16. Low-kick-back chain
helps significantly reduce
kickback or the intensity of kickback, due to spe
-
cially designed depth gauges and guard links.
21. Chain catcher
reduces the danger of injury in the
event saw chain breaks or derails during operation.
The chain catcher is designed to intercept a whip-
ping chain.
VI - Assembly instructions
WARNING:
Do not connect the chain saw to
the mains until it is completely assembled.
WARNING:
Always wear heavy duty gloves
when handling the chain.
Prior to initial operation your new chain saw will require
guide bar and chain assembly, side cover and filling the
oil tank with lubricating oil.
Read all instructions carefully. Do not install any other
size bar and chain than the recommended for your
model.
Accessories
The chain saw is delivered with the following accesso
-

(Fig.3)
- Guide bar; Saw chain; Guide bar sheath.
CHAIN AND GUIDE BAR ASSEMBLY
The chain saw is equipped with SDS system for con-
venient and quick guide bar assembly and adjusting the
chain tension.
(Fig. 4a)
The ring (10) adjusts the chain tension, and the locking
knob (11) tightens the bar.
The ring (10) shall be rotated clockwise for tensioning
and anti-clockwise for loosening the chain.
1. Unpack all parts carefully.
2. Place the chain saw on any suitable flat surface.
3. Deactivate the chain brake. Ensure the chain brake
lever has been pulled back and released.
4. Unscrew anti-clockwise the locking knob (11) of
SDS system and remove the side cover (9).
(Fig.4b)
5. Spread the chain in a loop with the cutting edges (A)
pointing in the direction of rotation, marked with an
arrow on the bar. Slide the chain in the bar groove
around the guide bar. Check that the chain is prop-
erly mounted in the correct direction of rotation.
(Fig. 4c, 4d)
6. Mount the guide bar onto the fastening bolt (20), fit
the chain onto the drive sprocket (19) and direct the
bar so that the bar fastening bolt and the two guide
fins (B) fit into the bar keyway. Rotate by hand the
wheel (C) rightward to push the bar out and to ten-
sion the chain enough to prevent dropping the chain
out of the bar groove.
(Fig.4e)
7. Place the side cover, ensure the bar fastening bolt
(20) fits into the thread of the locking knob (11).
Screw the locking knob to tighten the side cover.
(Fig.4f)
8. The chain is not tensioned yet. Tensioning the chain
is described below.
TENSIONING THE CHAIN
Always check the chain tension before use, after the first
cuts and regularly during use, approximately every 5
cuts. New saw chains stretch, requiring adjustment after
as few as 5 cuts. This is normal with a new chain, and
the interval between future adjustments will lengthen
quickly.
WARNING:
Unplug the chain saw from power
source before adjusting the chain tension.
WARNING:
Chain cutting edges are sharp. Al-
ways wear heavy duty gloves when handling saw chain
or making saw chain adjustments.
WARNING:
Maintain proper chain tension
always. A loose chain increases the risk of kickback.
A loose chain may jump out of guide bar groove. This
may injure operator and damage chain. If the chain is
too loose or too tight, chain, bar and sprocket wear
rapidly.
