The saw chain must always throw off a
small amount of oil.
Never operate your saw without chain
lubrication. If the chain runs dry, the
whole cutting attachment will be
irretrievably damaged within a very short
time. Always check chain lubrication and
the oil level in the tank before starting
work.
Every new chain has to be broken in for
about 2 to 3 minutes.
After breaking in the chain, check chain
tension and adjust if necessary – see
"Checking Chain Tension".
The coasting brake brings the running
chain to a standstill when you let go of
the trigger switch.
1 Coasting brake stops the running
chain.
2 Coasting brake disengaged.
