Guide Bar Maintenance
Every day of use, reverse the guide bar on the
en
saw to distribute the wear for maximum bar life.
The bar should be cleaned every day of use and
checked for wear and damage.
GB
Feathering or burring of the bar rails is a normal
process of bar wear. Such faults should be
F
smoothed with a file or stone as soon as they
occur.
A bar with any of the following faults should
D
be replaced:
• Wear inside the bar rails which permits the
E
chain to lay over sideways.
• Bent guide bar.
NL
• Cracked or broken rails.
• Spread rails.
In addition, guide bars with a sprocket at their tip
P
must be lubricated periodically with a grease
syringe to extend the guide bar life.
GR
Turn the guide bar and check that the lubrication
holes and chain groove are free from impurities.

WARNING - Never mount a new chainsaw
on a worn sprocket.

AIR FILTER
SK
WARNING: Do not clean filter in
gasoline or other flammable solvent to
avoid creating a fire hazard or producing
RUS
harmful evaporative emissions.
UK
Completely loosen the air filter cover knob (A,
Fig. 25) by turning counterclockwise, remove air
PL
filter cover and check the air filters (B) each day.
Clean filter with soapy water, rinse and dry
thoroughly prior to installing. Reinstall the air
H
filters into cover. Place the air filter cover onto the
chain saw. Tighten the air filter cover knob
LV
securely.
A used air filters can never be completely
cleaned. It is advisable to replace your air filters
EST
with a new one after six month of operation.
LT
CAUTION: Never run the engine without
the air filters, serious damage could
result.
RO
Make sure the air filters is correctly placed in
the air filter cover before reassembly.
Always replace damaged filters.
Do not clean a filters with a brush.

FUEL FILTER - Check the fuel filter periodically.
Replace it if too dirty (Fig. 26).
OIL PUMP (automatic/adjustable) - Flow
adjustment is pre-set by the manufacturer. Oil
flow can be adjusted by the operator according
to specific requirements by means of the special
adjusting screw (Fig. 30). Oil flow occurs only
when the chain is moving.
WARNING - Never use scavenge oil.
STARTING UNIT - Use a brush or compressed
air to keep the cooling louvers of the starter
assembly free and clean.
WARNING: The coil spring is under tension
and could fly apart causing serious
injuries. Never try to disassembly or modify it.
ENGINE - Clean the cylinder & flywheel fins
with compressed air or a brush periodically.
Dangerous overheating of engine may occur due
to impurities on the cylinder.
WARNING: Never run the saw without all
the parts, including the drivecase cover
and starting housing, securely in place.
Because parts can fracture and pose a
danger of thrown objects, leave repairs to
the flywheel and clutch to trained Servicing
Dealers.
SPARK PLUG - Clean the spark plug and check
the electrode gap periodically (Fig. 27).
Use NGK CMR7A or of other brand with the same
thermal grade.
WARNING: Never test the ignition system
with ignition wire connector removed
from spark plug or with unseated spark
plug, since uncontained sparking may cause
a fire. A loose connection between spark
plug terminal and ignition wire connector in
the boot may create arcing that could ignite
combustible fumes and cause a fire.
Use only resistor type spark plugs of the
approved range.
Factors such as:
- too much oil in fuel mix;
- dirty air filter;
- unfavourable running conditions, e.g.
operating at part load;
may result in rapid deterioration of the spark
plug.
