Switching On; Checking The Chain Brake - Grizzly Tools EKS 2440 QT Traduction De La Notice D'utilisation Originale

Note: The saw is a high-powered
device, where a 13 A fuse gener-
ally suffices, provided that further
current consumers with high ser-
vice are not connected. However,
if the premises installations are
not implemented optimally and
"quick-acting" protection fuses are
built-in (e.g. B 16), the protection
fuse will be activated due to the
current peaks during switch-on.
You should install time-delay fuses
with the designation "L", which can
be bought in every hardware store.
Fuses with the designation "G" are
provided with even longer time de-
lay, however they are not usually
employed in households.
Caution! Saw can oil up, see notes
on Operation startup.

Checking the chain brake

The motor cannot be turned on
if the chain brake has engaged.
Do not employ the chain brake in
order to start the chainsaw or to
switch it off.
1. Place the electric chainsaw onto a
solid, flat surface. It must not contact
any objects.
2. Connect the device to the mains volt-
age.
3. Release the chain brake by shifting
the brake arm (3) over against the
front grip (8).
4. Hold the electric chainsaw firmly with
both hands, with the right hand on the
rear handle (
A
the front handle (8). Thumb and finger
must close securely over the handles.
5. Turn on the electric chainsaw.
6. Activate the chain braking lever (3),
with running motor, with the left hand.
Chain should stop abruptly.
7. Once the chain brake is working prop-
erly, release the on/off switch (10) and
the chain brake.
If the chain brake does not func-
tion correctly, you must not use
the electric chainsaw. A slack
saw chain leads to danger of
injury. Return the electric chain-
saw to our Service-Center for
repair.
