Chain Lubrication; Operating The Chainsaw; Switching On - Grizzly Tools EKS 2240 QTX Traduction De La Notice D'utilisation Originale

Chain lubrication

The rail and chain must never be
without oil. If you operate the elec-
tric chainsaw with too little oil, the
cutting performance and the life-
time of the saw chain is reduced,
since the chain becomes blunt
faster. You can identify a case of
too little oil where smoke develop-
ment or discoloration of the rail
occurs.
The power saw is equipped with an oil
automatic system. As soon as the motor is
speeded up, the oil also flows faster to the
chain bar.
Fill with chain oil
• Check the oil fill level and regularly
top up with oil (
holds 260 ml oil.
• Use Grizzly bio-oil; this product con-
tains additives that reduce wear and
tear and does not damage the pump
system. bio-oil is available from our
Service-Center.
• If you have no Grizzly bio-oil avail-
able, use chain lubrication oil with low
adhesive additive content.
1. Unscrew the oil fill cap (3) and fill up
with chain oil.
2. Wipe off any spilled oil and close the
cap again.
Always switch off the device and
allow the motor to cool before
filling with chain oil. There is a
risk of fire if oil overflows.
