4. Starting up
4.1. Filling the oil tank
The chainsaw must never be operated without su cient 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 everywhere at your local
specialist dealer.
Do not use old oil. This will damage the chainsaw and will also lead
to loss of the guarantee.
• Before lling 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. 200 ml oil into the tank using a funnel and screw on the
tank cap tightly once more.
In order to allow you to operate your chainsaw immediately
after purchasing, two (2) oil cans with 100 ml of oil each are
enclosed. After the oil has been poured in the appropriate tank,
the chainsaw is ready for use. Please do not forget to re ll the oil
tank as soon as possible.
• The oil level can be seen in the inspection window (Fig. 2). 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 chainsaw is trans-
ported or sent for repair.
• Check correct functioning of the chainsaw before commencing
work. Switch on the saw with cutting ttings assembled and hold
over a bright background at a safe distance (Be careful not to come
in contact with the ground !). A track of oil will show you that the
chain is su ciently lubricated.
• After use, lay the chainsaw horizontally on some absorbing surface.
The oil spread on the blade, chain and drive may lead to some fur-
ther dripping of oil.
4.2. Assembling the blade and chain
CAUTION ! Risk of injury ! Always use safety gloves when as-
sembling the chain !
For assembling the bar and chain with this chainsaw no tools are
required !
• Put the chainsaw on a stable rest.
• Loosen the T-screw 7 turning it clockwise.
• Remove the gear cover 8.
• Put the chain on the bar considering the running direction of the
chain. The cutting teeth on the upper side of the bar must point
in forward direction (see Fig. 4).
• Put the free end of the chain over the chain driving wheel (B).
• Place the bar such that the long hole in the bar is
placed exactly on the guiding element in the bar seat.
• Take care that the chain tensioning bolt (A) is seated exactly in the small
opening in the bar (Fig. 3). It must be visible through the opening. If neces-
sary, adjust the knurling wheel of the chain tensioning device (16) in both
directions until the chain tensioning bolt is seated in the opening in the bar.
• Check whether all chain links are seated exactly in the bar’s groove
and the chain is lead around the chain driving wheel correctly.
• Put the gear cover 8 back on and push it in place.
• Moderately tighten the T-screw 7 by turning it clockwise.
• Tension the chain. To do so turn the knurling wheel upwards (+ direction
of arrow). The chain should be tensioned such that it can be lifted by
about 3mm in the middle of the bar (Fig. 4). To decrease the chain tension
turn the knurling wheel downwards (- direction of arrow).
• Finally, tighten the T-screw 7 well by hand.
The tension in the chain has a major e ect on the service life of the
cutting ttings, and must therefore be checked regularly. When the
chain warms up to operating temperature 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 tension the chain slightly loosen the T-screw 7. Then turn the knurling
wheel upwards (+ direction of arrow). Tension the chain such that it can
be lifted by about 3mm in the middle of the bar, as shown
.
4.3. Connecting the chainsaw
We recommend to operate the chainsaw in connection 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
