Operating Instructions

During work
N Check level of chain oil tank
N Refill chain oil at the latest every
second time the battery is changed
Check chain tension frequently
A new saw chain must be retensioned
more frequently than one that has been
in use already for an extended period.
Chain cold
Tension is correct when the chain fits
snugly against the underside of the bar
but can still be pulled along the bar by
hand. Retension if necessary – see
"Tensioning the Saw Chain".
Chain at operating temperature
The chain stretches and begins to sag.
The drive links must not come out of the
bar groove on the underside of the bar –
the chain may otherwise jump off the
bar. Retension the chain – see
"Tensioning the Saw Chain"
The chain contracts as it cools
down. If it is not slackened off, it
can damage the drive shaft and
bearings.
