Starting up
Before starting up
The voltage and current supply must comply with the ra-
tings on the type plate. Before commencing work, always
check that the chainsaw works properly and is safe to
operate. Check also that the chain lubrication and the oil
gauge are in good working order.
1. Filling the oil tank (Fig. 1)
The chain saw must never be operated without sufficient
oil on the chain as this could cause damage to the chain,
blade or motor. No claims for guarantee can be accepted
if damage occurs when the device is being operated
without chain oil.
Please use only biologically-based chainsaw oil, i.e.
oil which is 100% biologically decomposable.
Biological chainsaw oil should be available at any local
specialist dealer.
Do not use old oil. This will damage the chainsaw and will
also lead to loss of the guarantee.
• Before filling the oil tank, pull out the mains plug
• Open the twist cap and place safely aside so that the
sealing ring in the tank cap does not get lost.
• Fill approx. 100 ml oil into the tank using a funnel and
screw on the tank cap tightly once more.
• The oil level can be seen in the inspection window. If
you plan not to use the machine for a longer period,
you should remo ve the chain oil from the oil tank.
• The oil tank should also be emptied before the chain-
saw is transported or dispatched.
• Check correct functioning of the chainsaw before com-
mencing work. Switch on the saw with cutting fittings
assembled and hold over a bright background at a safe
distance (Be careful not to come in contact with the
ground !). An track of oil will show you that the chain is
sufficiently lubricated.
• After use, lay the chainsaw horizontally on some absor-
bing surface. The oil spread on the blade, chain and
drive may lead to some further dripping of oil.
2. Assembling the blade and chain (Fig. 2 - 4)
CAUTION! Risk of injury! Always use safety
gloves when assembling the chain!
• Lay the chainsaw on a stable base.
• Release and remove the securing nut. Remove protec-
tion cap first.
• Pull off the pinion lid
• Lay the saw chains onto the blade and observe the
direction of the chain. The cutting teeth must be
point-ing forward on the top of the blade (see fig. 4).
• Lay the unattached end of the saw chain over the chain
drive wheel (see fig.2, B) and the blade 5 with the elon-
gated hole over the blade guide and chain tensioning
bolt.
• Observe that the chain tensioning bolt is sitting exactly
in the small opening in the blade (see fig.2, A). It must
be visible through the opening.
• Now shove the blade together with the chain forwards.
Observe that all chain links are positioned exactly in
the blade grove and that the saw chain is running pre-
cisely around the chain drive wheel.
• Replace the pinion lid and press it tightly until secure.
• Replace the securing nut. The securing nut should
initially only be tightened by hand.
• Tighten the chain. To do this, turn the chain tension-
ing screw (see Fig.3, C) in a clockwise direction. The
chain should be tensioned so that it can still be raised
approx. 3 mm in the middle of the blade (Fig. 4).
• Finally, tighten the securing nut using a socket span-
ner. Put the protection cap on the nut.
The tension in the chain has a major effect on the
service life of the cutting fittings, and must therefore
be checked regularly. When the chain warms up to
operating tempe-rature it will expand and must be
retightened. A new saw chain will have to be tightened
more frequently until it has reached its full length.
CAUTION: During the running-in period, the
chain must be more frequently tightened. The
chain must be immediately retightened if it
shakes or leaves the grove!
To tighten the chain, loosen the nut. Then turn the chain
tensioning screw (see Fig.3, C) on the front of the chain-
saw in a clockwise direction.Keep tightening the chain
until it can be raised in the middle of the blade by approx.
3 mm, as shown in Fig. 4.
3. Connecting the chainsaw (Fig. 5)
We recommend to operate the chain saw in connec-
tion with a residual current operated device with a
maximum breaking current of 30mA.
This device is designed to be operated on a mains
supply with a system impedance Z max at the point of
connection (house service connection) of max. 0.4 Ohm.
The user must ensure that the device is only operated
on an electricity supply system meeting these require-
ments. If required, system impedance data may be
obtained from the local public utility.
Use only extension cords that are approved for
out-door use and are not lighter than rubber-
sheathed cables of type H07 RN-F according to
DIN/VDE 0282 with a diameter of at least 1.5 sq.
mm. They cords must be splash-proof. If the
connection cable of this device should be dam-
aged it must be replaced by a workshop named
by the manufacturer only as this work requires
the use of special tools. Mobile devices for out-
door use should be connected over a residual
current operated device.
To protect the connection cable from strains this chain
saw is equipped with a strain relief. First, connect the
tool's plug with the mains cable. Then, form a tight loop
with the connection cable and put this loop through the
opening on the rear side of the handle. Put the loop
over the strain relief hook as shown in the correspond-
ing figure. Now the plug-connection is secured against
unintentional disconnection.
4. Switching on (Fig. 6 + 7)
• Hold the saw securely with both hands so that the
thumbs and fingers are wrapped around the handle of
the chain saw (Fig. 6).
• Press with your thumbs the stopping button 15 on
