Fitting The Blade And Saw Chain; Tensioning The Saw Chain - Grizzly AKS 2440 Lion Traduction De La Notice D'utilisation Originale

GB
The device may be used with the
following battery-powered devices:
- Battery 24 V, 2 A
- Battery 24 V, 2 A
Note that the saw can re-oil.
Please note that the saw re-oils after
use and oil may leak out if it is stored on
its side or on the head. This is a normal
process due to the necessary ventila-
tion opening on the upper edge of the
tank and does not constitute a reason for
complaint. As each saw is checked dur-
ing production and tested with oil, a small
residue may be in the tank despite drain-
ing, which may slightly dirty the housing
with oil in transit. Please clean the hous-
ing with a cloth.
Fitting the blade and saw
chain
Switch off the device and remove
the battery from the device.
1. Place the device on a level sur-
B
face.
2. Turn the blade fastening screw
(14) anti-clockwise in order to re-
move the chain wheel cover (15).
3. Spread out the sawing chain
(5) in a loop so that the cutting
edges are aligned in a clockwise
direction.
4. Insert the sawing chain (5) in the
blade groove.
5. Place the blade (4) on the rail
bolts (22) so that the tensioning
screw (23) is exposed.
6. To assemble, hold the blade (4)
tilted upwards at an angle of ap-
prox. 45 degrees in order to be
148
able to guide the sawing chain
(5) more easily onto the chain
sprocket (24). It is normal for the
sawing chain (5) to sag.
7. Pre-tension the sawing chain (5)
by turning the tensioning screw
(23) in a clockwise direction.
8. Put the chain wheel cover (15)
on. To do this, the lug on the
cover (15) must first be placed in
the notch provided on the device.
Tighten the fastening screw (14)
with light force only, as the device
must still be tensioned.

Tensioning the saw chain

With a correctly tensioned chain you get
good cutting performance and a longer life.
An incorrectly tensioned chain
may break or spring off, leading
to danger of injury. Test the saw
before every start and the chain
tension after every hour of saw-
ing.
The chain is correctly tensioned if it does
not sag at the rail underside and can be
rotated completely around with the gloved
hand.
When the saw chain is tensioned with 9 N
(approx. 1 kg), the gap between the saw
chain and the guide rail may not be more
than 2 mm.
1. Ensure that the chain brake has

been released, that is, that the
