Chain Maintenance; Protecting The Environment; Transporting And Storing - Ego Power+ CS2000E Operator's Manual

In addition, the guide bar has a sprocket at its tip (Fig.
Z2). The sprocket must be lubricated weekly with a
grease syringe to extend the guide bar life. Use a grease
syringe to lubricate weekly with chain oil by means of the
lubricating hole (Fig. Z3). Turn the guide bar and check
that the lubrication holes and chain groove are free from
impurities.

CHAIN MAINTENANCE

Use only low-kickback chains on this saw. This fast
cutting chain will provide kickback reduction when
properly maintained.
A properly sharpened saw chain cuts through wood
effortlessly, even with very little pressure. Never use a
dull or damaged saw chain. A dull saw chain cutter leads
to increased physical strain, increased vibration load,
unsatisfactory cutting results, and increased wear.
For smooth and fast cutting, the chain needs to be
maintained properly. The chain requires sharpening when
the wood chips are small and powdery, the chain must be
forced through the wood during cutting, or the chain cuts
to one side. During maintenance of your chain, consider
the following:
◾
Improper filing angle of the side plate can increase the
risk of a severe kickback.
◾
Depth gauge clearance. Too low increases the potential
for kickback. Not low enough decreases cutting ability.
◾
If cutter teeth have hit hard objects, such as nails and
stones, or have been abraded by mud or sand on the
wood, have the chain sharpened by a qualified service
technician.

TRANSPORTING AND STORING

◾
Do not store or transport the chainsaw when it is
running. Always remove the battery pack before
storing or transportation.
◾
Always place the chain sheath on the guide bar and
chain before storing or transporting the chainsaw. Use
with caution to avoid the sharp teeth of the chain.
◾
Clean the chainsaw thoroughly before storing. Store
the chainsaw indoors, in a dry place that is locked and/
or inaccessible to children.
◾
Keep away from corrosive agents such as garden
chemicals and de-icing salts.
