Chain lubrication (B13-B15)
The chainsaw is supplied without oil.
Unscrew the oil tank cover (12). Fill the oil tank
with biologically degradable chain oil.
Never use recycled oil or used oil.
Ensure that no dirt gets into the oil tank.
The chainsaw must never be operated without
oil.
If the chainsaw is operated without oil, the entire
saw will suer damage within a very short period
of time.
Check the oil level and the chain lubrication
system before every starting work.
Check the automatic function of the chain
lubrication system by holding the running saw
with the tip of the bar against a sheet of paper on
the ground. Keep a safe distance! If an increasing
oil mark can be seen on the paper, the automatic
lubrication system is working correctly when the
saw chain is running.
Always ensure that the oil discharge duct (20) is
free of dirt at all times. If necessary clean it with
a thin object (such as a toothpick or matchstick).
Caution:
Do not try to adjust the oil ow of the oil pump.
Because it has been adjusted in the optimal
position before it left the factory.
Engine / Chain brake (B16)
This chainsaw is tted with an engine/chain brake
for your safety.
If the saw suers recoil, the front hand guard (4)
will strike against your hand and trip the chain
brake. To restart the saw, pull the hand guard
forcefully backwards towards the front handle.
The chain will stop after a maximum of 0.1
second.
you must adjust the tension of the chain (2) after
it has carried out its rst sawing work.
Since a saw chain (2) that has been tensioned
when warm will contract as it cools and this
would result in excessive chain tension, the chain
tension must be reduced after you have nished
the sawing work.
IMPORTANT – the tension of the chain (2) must be
checked several times over the course of a
working day. Always wear gloves for this work.
Since the guide bar (1) is subject to particularly
high stress at the return point and at the interface,
we recommend that the guide bar be turned
each time you sharpen the chain so as to avoid it
wearing on one side.
Fuel (B12)
Use only a mixture of unleaded regular petrol
and special 2-stroke engine oil in a mixing ratio
of 40:1.
Important: Do not use a dierent mixing ration
and do not use pure petrol.
Do not use fuel if it is more than 2-3 months old.
If you do not intend to use the machine for a
lengthy period, empty the tank and rell it before
you start work again.
Mix petrol in a ratio of 40:1
- Add 4.0 litres of petrol to 100 ml of 2-stroke oil
in a fuel tank and mix the two components by
shaking the machine forcefully.
Fill the petrol tank
- Unscrew the petrol tank cover (13) slowly so
that the pressure and petrol vapours can escape
safely.
- Fill the tank with the 40:1 2-stroke mixture using
a funnel and screw the petrol tank cover (13) back
into place.
