Use these instructions to familiarise yourself with the device, its correct use and
safety regulations.
•
Keep these in a safe place so that the information is available to you at all times
•
If you should hand over the device to another person, hand over these operating
instructions.
1.
Mounting the guide bar and saw chain
a)
Unpack all parts carefully and check for completeness.
b)
Loosen the fixing screw for the chain wheel cover (Fig. 3).
c)
Remove the chain wheel cover (Fig. 4).
d)
Place the chain in the circumferential groove of the saw chain as shown (Fig. 5a).
