Maintenance - Redback 106071 Operation Manual

Maintenance

Before performing any work on the pole saw, remove the
battery. Risk of injury by the sharp cutters!
Wear protective gloves.
The user should perform only the maintenance work described
below. All other work, in particular motor maintenance and
repairs, must be performed by a trained specialist. Improper
work may damage the power tool and result in injuries. Have
power tool inspected once a year at a service center.
Overview of cleaning and maintenance
• After using the power tool clean the unit.
• Tension the saw chain.
• Clean oil guide groove in the saw rail.
• Check saw chain oil level, top up if required.
Cleaning
• Do not use water or liquid detergents.
• Clean the unit with a damp cloth and a soft brush.
• Remove the chain cover, and use a soft brush to remove debris
from the saw rail, saw chain, chain wheel and chain cover.
• Keep the ventilation slits clean and dust free.
Servicing
To tension the saw chain, (see Figure 3) on page 9.
Cleaning oil guide groove in the saw rail
• Remove saw rail.
• Remove dirt from the oil guide groove using a suitable tool. Use
a plastic spatula, not a steel tool!
• Re-attach saw rail.
Regrinding saw chain
Special tools are required to sharpen the saw chain and
guarantee that the blades of the chain are sharpened at the
correct angle and to the correct depth. We recommend
having the saw chain reground by specialist.
