Checking the oil
automatic system
Check the oil level and the automatic oil
system before commencement of work.
• Switch on the chainsaw and hold it
above a bright background. The saw
must not touch the ground.
If an oil trace can be seen, the chainsaw
is working trouble-free.
If no oil trace can be seen clean
the oil passages or turn the chain-
saw to our Service-Center for re-
pair.
Clean the oil passages of the chain bar
(25), in order to guarantee a trouble-free,
automatic oiling of the saw chain during
operation.

Changing the saw bar

1. Switch the saw off and unplug it from
the mains.
2. Lay the saw on a flat surface.
3. Turn the fastening bolt (14) anti-clock-
wise and loose the chain adjustment
ring ( 13) to remove the sprocket
A
chain wheel covering (15).
4. Remove the saw bar (4) and saw
chain ( 5). To remove the guide bar
A
(4), raise it to an angle of approx. 45
degrees. This will make it easier to
take the saw chain (5) off the sprocket
( 23).

5. To fit the new bar, place the bar (4)
onto the bar bolt (21) with the tension-
ing plate pointing outwards (22).

Fitting the saw chain

1. Switch the saw off and unplug it from
the mains.
2. Spread the chain (5) out into a loop
with the cutting edges running clock-
wise .
3. Slide the saw chain (5) into the bar
guide groove. To mount the guide bar
(4), raise it to an angle of approx. 45
degrees. This will make it easier to
replace the saw chain (5) onto the
sprocket (23). It is normal that the saw
chain (5) is slack. Sagging in the chain
is normal.
4. Pre-tighten the chain (5) by turning the
tensioning plate (22) clockwise.
5. Position the sprocket chain wheel cov-
ering (15). First place the tab (24) on
the cover into the corresponding notch
on the plate (15). Only lightly tighten
the fastening bolt (14), as you will still
have to tension the saw.
Refer to the start-up section on
how to tension the saw chain.

Sawing techniques

General

• You have better control when you saw
with the bottom side of the chain bar
(with pulling saw chain) and not to
with the top side of the chain bar (with
pushing saw chain).
• The saw chain must not contact either
the ground or another object during
sawing through or after sawing com-
pletion.
• Make sure that the saw chain does not
become jammed in the wood. Do not
let the tree trunk break or split off.
