Overload Cutout

The overload cutout interrupts the power
supply to the saw in the case of
mechanical overload due to, e.g.
excessive feed force
–
"lugging down" the motor
–
pinching the saw chain in the cut
–
If the overload cutout has interrupted the
power supply:
Pull the guide bar out of the cut.
N
If necessary, disengage the chain
N
brake – see "Chain Brake".
MSE 170 C, MSE 190 C, MSE 210 C
Wait for the overload cutout to cool
N
down.
1
Depress the reset button (1) as far
N
as stop – if the motor does not run
when you switch on, the overload
cutout has not yet cooled down
sufficiently – wait a while and then
depress the reset button again as
far as stop.
When the motor restarts:
Run the motor off-load for about
N
15 seconds. This cools the motor
and helps prevent the overload
cutout from tripping again.
MSE 230 C
The MSE 230 C is equipped with an
electronic overload cutout to monitor
motor temperature and power
consumption.
If the indicator lamp (1) stays on for
N
longer than 2 seconds in an
overload situation, the power supply
is interrupted and the saw is
switched off automatically – release
the trigger switch, then restart the
saw.
If the saw then restarts at a reduced
N
RPM, it is overheated and switches
off automatically after about
10 seconds – release the trigger
switch, allow the saw to cool down
for about one minute, then restart. If
the saw again restarts at a reduced
RPM, it has not cooled down
sufficiently – allow it to cool down for
a long as necessary until it restarts
at normal RPM.
The indicator lamp glows only as long as
the trigger switch is operated.
