11 Checking Chain Lubrica‐

tion

The saw chain must always spin off a small

amount of oil.

NOTICE

Never operate your machine without chain lubri‐

cation. If the saw chain runs dry, the cutting

attachment may very quickly be damaged

beyond repair. Before starting work, always

check the chain lubrication and oil level in the

tank.

Every new saw chain needs a run-in time of 2 to

3 minutes.

After the saw chain has run in, check the tension

of the chain and correct if necessary – see

"Checking the chain tension".

11 Checking Chain Lubrication

The coasting brake brings the running chain to a

standstill when you let go of the trigger switch.
