Product functions ECSP51 Safety equipment The product has several pieces of safety equipment which reduce the risk of injury when working (Fig. 17): Throttle trigger Chain brake / lock-out front hand guard Chain catcher Stop switch Use the stop switch (11) switch to start and stop the engine.
Page 34
Product functions ECSP51 Chain brake / front hand guard The front hand guard (4) is a safety mechanism that stops the saw chain (3) immediately when it is pushed towards the operator in case of a kickback. The chain brake is a safety mechanism activated by the front hand guard (4). When kickback occurs, the saw chain stops immediately.
Page 35
Product functions ECSP51 Throttle trigger lock-out The throttle trigger lock-out (8) prevents unintentional activation of the throttle trigger (10). The throttle trigger can only be activated if the throttle trigger lock-out is pressed. Chain catcher The chain catcher (17) is intended to catch a torn saw chain (3) or saw chain which has jumped out of the guide bar (2).
Operation ECSP51 Operation Check before starting: 1. Check the product, as well as accessories for damage before each use. Do not use the product if it is damaged or shows wear. 2. Double check that accessories and the guide bar/saw chain are properly fixed.
Page 37
Operation ECSP51 Engine cold start 1. Place the saw where it does not come into contact with any objects. 2. Engage the chain brake. 3. Press the primer (7) until the bubble is filled with fuel (6 times) (Fig. 20).
Page 38
Operation ECSP51 Engine warm start 1. Place the saw where it does not come into contact with any objects. 2. Engage the chain brake. 3. Set the choke to CLOSE position (Fig. 21) and then set to OPEN position (Fig. 23) to partially open the throttle for easy starting.
Page 39
Operation ECSP51 Basic operating / cutting procedure 1. To become proficient attend a recognised chain saw training course to learn how to operate chain saws safely and effectively. Familiarise yourself with all the controls and switches. Practise all movements with the product switched off.
Page 40
Operation ECSP51 8. Do not operate the product with arms fully extended or attempt to saw areas which are difficult to reach, or on a ladder. Never use the product above shoulder height (Fig. 26). 9. Optimum sawing is achieved if the chain speed remains constant during cutting.
Page 41
Operation ECSP51 1. Pinching the saw chain (3) along the bottom of the guide bar (2) may pull the product forward away from the operator (“skating”) (Fig. 28). 2. Pinching the saw chain along the top of the guide bar may push the guide bar rapidly back toward the operator (“bouncing”) (Fig.
Page 42
Operation ECSP51 WARNING! Most “kickback” accidents happen during limbing! Pay close attention to the position of the ‘kickback’ zone of the bar when you are “limbing branches that are under tension. Felling a tree 1. When bucking and felling operations are being performed by two or more persons at the same time, the felling operations should be separated from the bucking operation by a distance of at least twice the height of the tree being felled.
Page 43
Operation ECSP51 Felling back cut 1. Make the felling back cut (Fig. 31, A) at least 50 mm higher than the horizontal notching cut (Fig. 31). Keep the felling back cut parallel to the horizontal notching cut. Make the felling back cut so enough wood is left to act as a hinge. The hinge (Fig.
Page 44
Operation ECSP51 Cutting spring poles A spring pole is any log, branch, rooted stump, or sapling which is bent under tension by other wood so that it springs back if the wood holding it is cut or removed. On a fallen tree, a rooted stump has a high potential of springing back to the upright position during the bucking cut to separate the log from the stump.
Page 45
Operation ECSP51 5. Support small logs on a sawing stand or another log while bucking (Fig. 37). 6. If the wood diameter is large enough for you to insert a soft bucking wedge without touching the chain, you should use the wedge to hold the cut open to prevent pinching (Fig.
Care and maintenance ECSP51 The golden rules for care WARNING! Always stop the engine, disconnect the spark plug connector and let the product cool before performing inspection, maintenance and cleaning work. DANGER! Proper maintenance is essential for safe and trouble free operation.

Care and maintenance ECSP51 Cleaning NOTE: Do not use chemical, alkaline, abrasive or other aggressive detergents or disinfectants to clean this product as they might be harmful to its surfaces. Cleaning the housing > Use a damp, lint-free cloth to clean the housing of the product.
Page 49
Care and maintenance ECSP51 Guide bar and saw chain maintenance Most guide bar problems can be prevented merely by keeping the product well maintained. Incorrect filing and non-standard cutter and depth gauge settings are the causes of most guide bar problems, primarily resulting in uneven bar wear. As the bar wears unevenly, the rails widen, which may cause the chain to clatter and make it difficult to complete straight cuts.
Page 50
Care and maintenance ECSP51 4. Remove any dirt accumulated inside the guide bar (2) slot using the putty knife (not provided) (Fig. 41). 5. Check the guide bar “rail” for wear: Hold a ruler (straight edge) against the side of the guide bar (2) and “cutter side plates”.
Page 51
Care and maintenance ECSP51 Saw chain sharpening NOTE: Never saw with a blunt chain. The saw chain is blunt if you have to push the product into the tree and the chips are very small. 1. Have the saw chain (3) sharpened professionally at an authorised service centre or sharpen the chain yourself by using the file (27).
Page 52
Care and maintenance ECSP51 5. File at an angle perpendicular to the bar, and at an angle of 25° to the direction of travel (Fig. 45). Sharpening angle 25° Left-hand cutter File direction Inside Outside Saw chain direction 6. File each tooth from the inside towards outside only. File one side of the chain first than turn the saw around and repeat the process.
Page 53
Care and maintenance ECSP51 Air filter Inspect the air filter (6b) regularly. Clean or replace it with a new one if necessary. 1. Insert the multi-tool (24) into the slot on the locking lever and push downwards to pry the top cover (6) open (Fig. 47).
Page 54
Care and maintenance ECSP51 Spark plug NOTE: For good performance, the spark plug must be properly gapped and free of deposits. Inspect the spark plug every 25 hours or before long-term storage over 180 days. Clean or replace with a new one if necessary (type: BPMR7A).
Page 55
Care and maintenance ECSP51 4. Check the spark plug for damage and wear. The colour of the electrode should be light-brown. 5. Remove the deposits from the electrode with a soft wired brush. Avoid heavy cleaning of the Spark plug electrode.
Page 56
Care and maintenance ECSP51 Chain catcher Replace a damaged or worn chain catcher (17) with a new one of the same type. 1. Loosen the bolt of the chain catcher (17) and remove it. 2. Fix a new chain catcher to the product.
