GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Needle bearing lubrication
Both versions of sprockets have a needle bearing on the
drive shaft, which has to be greased regularly (once a
week). CAUTION! Use a high-quality bearing grease or
engine oil.
Checking wear on cutting equipment
Check the chain daily for:
• Visible cracks in rivets and links.
• Whether the chain is stiff.
• Whether rivets and links are badly worn.
Replace the saw chain if it exhibits any of the points
above.
We recommend you compare the existing chain with a
new chain to decide how badly the existing chain is worn.
When the length of the cutting teeth has worn down to
only 4 mm the chain must be replaced.
Guide bar
Check regularly:
• Whether there are burrs on the edges of the bar.
Remove these with a file if necessary.
• Whether the groove in the bar has become badly
worn. Replace the bar if necessary.
