Tips for tensioning the chain:
The saw chain must be correctly tensioned to ensure safe operation. You will see
the optimum tension when the saw chain can be lifted by 3-4mm in the middle of
the sword.
Since the saw chain heats up as a result of sawing and changes its length as a
result, check the chain tension every 10 minutes and adjust it if necessary. This is
especially true for new saw chains.
After finishing work, relax the saw chain as it shortens when it cools down. This will
prevent the chain from being damaged.
3.
Saw-chain lubrication
Always switch off the device and remove the battery from the device before checking and
adjusting the chain. Always wear protective gloves when working on the chain saw to avoid
injury.
ATTENTION:
chainsaw without saw chain oil or with an oil level below the minimum mark
(Fig. 9) will damage the chainsaw.
Observe temperature conditions.: Different ambient temperatures require lubricants with
very different viscosity. At low temperatures, you need thin oils (low viscosity) to produce a
sufficient lubricating film. If you use the same oil in summer, it would be liquefied further by
the higher temperatures alone. This can cause the lubricating film to break off, overheating
the chain and damaging it. Lubricating oil also burns and leads to unnecessary pollution.
4.
Filling the oil tank
a)
Place the saw chain on a level surface.
b)
Clean the area around the oil tank cover and then open it. (Fig. 9b)
c)
Fill the tank with saw chain oil. Ensure that no dirt gets into the tank so that the oil
nozzle is not blocked.
d)
Close the oil tank cap.
Never operate the chain without saw chain oil. Using the
