NOTICE
Always slacken off the chain again after finishing
work. The chain contracts as it cools down. If it is
not slackened off, it can damage the crankshaft
and bearings.

bar lengths, types of wood and cutting techni‐
ques.
Use the adjusting screw (1) (on underside of
machine) to vary the oil feed rate as required.
Ematic position (E), medium oil flow rate –
► turn the adjusting screw to "E" (Ematic posi‐
tion).

19 Taking Care of the Guide
Bar

► Turn the guide bar over – every time you
sharpen the chain and every time you replace
the chain – this helps avoid one-sided wear,
especially at the nose and underside of the
bar.
► Regularly clean the oil inlet hole (1), the oil‐
way (2) and the bar groove (3)
► Measure the groove depth – with the scale on
the filing gauge (special accessory) – in the
area used most for cutting

If groove depth is less than specified:
► Replace the guide bar
The drive link tangs will otherwise scrape along
the bottom of the groove – the cutters and tie
straps will not ride on the bar rails.
20 Air Filter System
The air filter system can be adapted to suit differ‐
ent operating conditions by installing a choice of
filters. Changing the filter is quick and simple.
The saw comes standard with either a fabric filter
or a fleece filter.
