EXTRA MAINTANANCE ADVISABLE
It is advisable to inspect the machine by a
specialized technician at an authorized service
net work at the end of season, if used
intensively, and every two years if with normal
use.
WARNING: All maintenance operations
not reported in this manual must be
carried out by an authorized Service Center.
To ensure steady and regular electric saw
operation, remember that parts must only be
replaced with ORIGINAL SPARES.
Any unauthorized changes and/or
use of non-original replacement parts
may result in serious injury or death to the
operator or third parties.
CHAIN SHARPENING
WARNING - Always use safety gloves and
goggles while sharpening. Disconnect
the plug from the network before any
operations on the cutting devices.
The pitch of the chain (Fig. 22) is 3/8"x.050"
(Special). Sharpen the chain using protective
gloves and a round file of Ø 4 mm. (5/32").
Always sharpen the cutters only with outward
strokes (Fig. 21) observing the values given in
Fig. 22.
After sharpening, the cutting links must all have
the same width and length.
Follow the manufacturer's sharpening
and maintenance instructions for the
saw chain. Decreasing the depth gauge
height can lead to increased kickback.
WARNING - A sharp chain produces well-
defined chips. When your chain starts
to produce sawdust, it is time to sharpen.
Sharpen the chain when the electric saw is
disconnected from the network.
After every 3-4 times the cutters have been
sharpened you need to check the height of
the depth gauges and, if necessary, lower
them using the flat file and template supplied
