Before you start
WARNING! Disconnect the product from the power supply
before adjusting saw chain tension!
The cutting edges of the saw chain are sharp! Always wear
protective gloves when handling chain!
Always maintain proper chain tension! A loose chain
increases the risk of kickback! A loose chain may jump out
of the guide bar groove! This may injure the operator and
damage the chain! A loose chain will cause rapid wear to the
chain, guide bar and sprocket!
Tensioning the chain too tightly will overload the motor and
cause damage, and insucient tension can cause chain
derailing, whereas a correctly tightened chain provides the
best cutting characteristics and prolonged working life! The
chain life mainly depends upon sucient lubrication and
correct tensioning!
NOTE: The saw chain (3) has not yet been tensioned.
Tension the chain as described under “Saw chain
tensioning”. After operating the product for approximately
one hour, adjust the chain tension again.
2. Saw chain tensioning
Always check the saw chain tension before use, after the rst
cuts and regularly during use, approx. every ve cuts. Upon
initial operation, new chains can lengthen considerably. This is
normal during the break-in period and the interval between future
adjustments will lengthen quickly.
NOTE: The chain tension can not be adjusted with the
retaining nuts tightened - they must be loosened rst.
1). Place the product on a
suitable at surface.
2). Lift up the tip of the guide bar
(4) and keep it there as you
adjust the tension (Fig. 2a).
