6. For assembly, hold the chainsaw guide bar (12)
swivelled upwards at an angle of approx. 45 de-
grees to make it easier to feed the saw chain (11)
into the groove of the chainsaw guide bar (12).
7. Remove the chainsaw guide bar (12) and the saw
chain (11) on the spring tensioner (13).
8. Press the chainsaw guide bar (12) with the saw
chain (11) down to slip the saw chain (11) over the
sprocket (14).
9. When the saw chain (11) is released, it will be auto-
matically tensioned.
10. Fit the chain cover (3) back on.
11. Turn the screw for the chain tensioning system (2)
clockwise until hand tight.
12. Check the seating of the saw chain (11) again and
tighten the screw (2) for the chain tensioning sys-
tem and the chain cover (3).
Note:
Please note that the product will re-oil after use and oil
may leak if the product is stored horizontally or upside
down. This is a normal procedure due to the necessary
ventilation opening at the upper edge of the tank and is
no reason for complaint. As this product is inspected
and tested with oil during production, there could be a
small residue in the tank despite emptying, which could
easily stain with oil during transport of the housing.
Please clean the housing with a cloth.
Before changing the saw chain, the groove of the guide
rail must be cleaned of dirt, as the saw chain can jump
out of the rail if dirt deposits are present. The deposits
can also soak up the chain oil. The consequence would
be that the chain oil does not reach the underside of the
guide bar, or only to a small extent, and lubrication is
reduced.

Tensioning the saw chain (11)
(Fig. 2)
WARNING
Risk of injury from the saw chain jumping
off!
An insufficiently tensioned saw chain can come off
during operation and cause injuries.
–
Check the saw chain tension frequently.
–
The chain tension is too low if the drive links
come out of the groove on the underside of the
guide rail.
–
Adjust the tension of the saw chain properly if the
saw chain tension is too low.
1. The product is equipped with a saw chain quick
clamping system. The saw chain is automatically
tensioned by the spring tensioner fitted to the prod-
uct. The rotating saw chain is guided over the
groove on the chainsaw guide bar.
The chain tension and chain lubrication have a consid-
erable influence on the service life of the saw chain.

The saw chain is correctly tensioned when it does not
sag on the chainsaw guide bar and can be pulled all the
way round with a gloved hand. When pulling on the saw
chain with 9 N (approx. 1 kg) tractive force, the saw chain
and chainsaw guide bar must not be more than 2 mm
apart.
Note:
• A new saw chain tends to loosen for a certain time
after installation. Therefore, check the saw chain
tension from time to time before use.
• The tensioning of the saw chain should be carried
out in a clean place free from sawdust and the like.
• Correct tensioning of the saw chain is for the safety
of the user and reduces or prevents wear and chain
damage.
• We recommend that the user check the chain ten-
sion before starting work for the first time. The saw
chain is correctly tensioned when it does not sag on
the underside of the guide bar and can be pulled all
the way round with a gloved hand.
• If the saw chain sags or the spring tensioner is de-
fective, contact a specialist workshop.
ATTENTION
When working with the saw, the saw chain heats up
and expands slightly as a result. This "stretching" is to
be expected especially with new saw chains.

ATTENTION
Product damage!
If the product is operated without oil or with too little
oil or with used oil, this can lead to product damage.
–
Fill with oil before starting the machine. The prod-
uct is delivered without oil.
–
Do not use used oil!
–
Check the oil level every time you change the bat-
tery.
ATTENTION
Environmental damage!
Spilled oil can pollute the environment permanently.
The liquid is highly toxic and can quickly lead to water
pollution.
–
Fill/empty oil only on level, paved surfaces.
–
Use a filling nozzle or funnel.
–
Collect drained oil in a suitable container.
–
Wipe up spilled oil carefully immediately and dis-
pose of the cloth according to local regulations.
–
Dispose of oil as per local regulations.
