In order to prevent kick-back, please follow these
safety instructions:
Never start cutting with the tip of the chain bar!
Always keep a close eye on the tip of the chain
bar!
Never cut with the tip of the chain bar! Be
careful, when continuing cuts you are already
working on!
Always start cuts with the chainsaw already run-
ning!
Make sure that the saw chain is always properly
sharpened.
Never cut through more than one branch at a
time! When lopping off branches, be careful not
to touch any other branches.
When cross-cutting, pay attention to trunks stan-
ding very close to each other. If possible use a
sawing trestle.

5. Transporting the chainsaw

Before transporting the chainsaw, always remove the
plug from the power socket and slide the chain guard
over the rail and chain. If several cuts are to be per-
formed with the chainsaw, the saw must be switched
off between cuts.

6. Before starting up

The voltage and current supply must comply with the
ratings on the type plate. Before commencing work,
always check that the chainsaw works properly and
is safe to operate. Check also that the chain lubricati-
on and the oil gauge are in good working order (see
Fig. 9). When the oil level is approx. 5 mm from the
bottom mark (marked with „Min" in the illustration),
you must top up with oil. When the oil level is above
this mark you can work without worry.
Switch on the chainsaw and hold it above light-colo-
red ground. Be careful not to allow the chainsaw to
touch the ground. For safety reasons it is best to
keep a clearance of at least 20 cm. If you now see
growing traces of oil, the chain lubrication system is
working correctly. If there are no traces of oil at all,
try cleaning the oil outlet (4), the upper chain tensio-
ning borehole and the oil duct, or contact your
Customer Service. (Be sure to read the section
„Filling in chain oil and chain lubrication" on this
point). Check the chain tension and retension if
necessary (see the section „Tensioning the saw
chain" on this point). Make sure the chain brake is
working properly (see also the section „Releasing the
chain brake").

7. Assembling the chain bar and saw
chain
The machine must be unplugged.
- Important: The front finger guard (2) must
always be in the top (vertical) position.
The chain bar and saw chain are delivered separate-
ly. To assemble, first unscrew the nut and lock was-
her (16a and b) and remove the brake housing hood
(15). The chain tensioning bolt (13) must be in the
center of the guide (5). If necessary, tighten the
chain tensioning bolt with the chain tensioning screw
(6). To prevent injury on the sharp cutting edges,
always wear gloves when assembling, tensioning
and checking the chain. Before assembling the chain
bar with the saw chain, check the cutting direction of
the teeth! The running direction is marked with an
arrow on the hood (15). To determine the direction of
cut, it may be necessary to turn over the saw chain
(7). Hold the chain bar (8) vertically with the tip poin-
ting upwards and put on the saw chain (7), beginning
at the tip of the bar. Then assemble the chain bar
with the saw chain as follows: Place the chain bar
with the saw chain on the guide bolt (5) and chain
tensioning bolt (13). Place the saw chain round the
chain wheel (12) and make sure it is correctly moun-
ted (see Figure 1 / Item 7). Place the hood (15) on
top and tighten gently with the spring washer/nut
(16a + b). Now the saw chain has to be correctly ten-
sioned:

8. Tensioning the saw chain

Always pull the plug out of the power socket before
doing any work on the machine!
Wear safety gloves!
Make sure the saw chain (7) is inside the guide groo-
ve of the chain bar (8)!
Using a Phillips screwdriver, turn the chain tensio-
ning screw (6) clockwise until the saw chain is cor-
rectly tensioned. While the bolt (16a) is being tighte-
ned, the chain bar must then be pushed upwards.
Check the chain tension again (see Fig. 10). Do not
tension the chain too tightly. When cold, it should be
possible to lift the chain in the middle of the chain bar
approx. 5 mm. Tighten the nut (16a) securely.
When warm, the saw chain will expand and slacken
and there is a danger of it jumping off the rail alto-
gether. Retension if necessary. If the saw chain is
retensioned when hot, it must be loosened again
when the sawing work has been completed.
Otherwise, the contraction which takes place as the
chain cools would result in excessively high tension.
A new saw chain requires a running-in period of
approx. 5 minutes. Chain lubrication is very important
