• Fasten the bumper spike (19) to the chain saw case using bolts
(included).
INSTALLATION OF GUIDE BAR AND SAW CHAIN
Prior to guide bar installation remove plastic transport spacer, placed
on guide fixing screws under the guard. Use pin and adjustment
screw for adjustment of chain tension. It is very important that the
bolt located on adjustment screw falls into hole in the guide bar
during installation of the guide bar.
You can move the bolt to the front and back by turning the
adjustment screw. Those parts must be set appropriately prior to
starting guide bar installation in the saw.
Guide bar and chain are supplied separately.
• Brake lever (6) must be in the upper (vertical) position (fig. A).
• Unscrew the guide bar fixing nuts (7) and remove the casing (10).
• Put the chain (21) onto driving chain wheel located behind the clutch.
• Install the guide bar (20) (slide it behind the clutch) onto guiding
screws (c) and push towards driving chain wheel (fig. B).
• Put the chain (21) onto guide bar chain wheel (22) from below.
• Move the guide bar (20) away from the driving chain wheel, so chain
guiding links are placed in the guide bar groove.
• Ensure the pin (a) of the chain tension adjustment screw (8) is in
the middle of the lower hole (b) of the guide bar (20), adjust when
necessary (fig. B).
• Place the casing (10) in its place and fix by slightly tightening guide
bar fixing nuts (7).
• Strain the chain appropriately using the chain tension adjustment
screw (8). Chain tension is appropriate when the chain can be lifted
by 3 to 4 mm in the middle of the guide bar in horizontal position.
• Firmly tighten guide bar fixing screws (7) while holding the guide bar
tip.
Prior to guide bar and chain installation ensure that position of
chain cutting blades is appropriate (correct position of the chain
on the guide bar is shown on the tip of the guide bar). Always wear
protective gloves during checks and installation of the chain to
prevent cuts from sharp edges of the chain.
New chain requires start-up period, which lasts approximately 5
minutes. Chain lubrication is very important in this phase. Check
chain tension after start-up period and readjust if necessary.
Check and adjust the chain tension frequently. Too loose chain can
easily slide off the guide bar, quickly wear out or quickly wear out
the guide bar.
FILLING SAW TANK WITH OIL
Oil tank in new chain saw is empty. Fill the tank with oil prior to first use.
• Unscrew oil filler plug (18).
• Pour in maximally 260 ml of oil (be careful to avoid contamination of
oil during filling of the tank).
• Screw oil filler plug (18).
Do not use oil that has been already used or regenerated, as this may
damage the oil pump. Use SAE 10W/30 oil for the whole year, or SAE
30W/40 in summer and SAE 20W/30 in winter.
FILLING THE FUEL TANK
When filling the fuel, follow these rules:
• Engine must not work,
• You must not spill the fuel.
Accordingly to the below table, mix petrol (lead-free with octane
number 95) with good quality engine oil for two stroke engines.
RECOMMENDED FUEL BLEND RATIO
Working conditions
First 20 hours of operation
After 20 hours of operation
• Unscrew fuel filler plug (15).
• Pour in previously prepared fuel blend (max. 550 ml).
• Screw fuel filler plug (15).
Most problems with combustion engines result directly or indirectly
from fuel used. You must not use oil designed for four-stroke engines
to prepare fuel blend.
OPERATION / SETTINGS
STARTING THE ENGINE
Hold the chain saw with both hands during operation.
Petrol : oil
20 : 1
25 : 1
13
• Check level of the fuel tank and the oil tank.
• Make sure the brake lever (6) is in the switched on position (shifted
to the front).
• When the engine is cold, pull out the choke cable (2).
• Pull the starter line (13) a few times to pump the fuel into the engine.
• Set the ignition switch (14) to switched on position (fig. C).
• Place the saw on stable ground.
• While holding the saw pressed against ground, pull the starter line
(13). First slowly so to hear the clutch gears, then pull it strongly (fig.
D).
• Keep pulling the starter line (13) until the saw starts for a moment
and goes out.
• Then press the throttle lever lock (1) and throttle lever (11) slightly
to turn off the choke (the choke cable will retract automatically to
switched off position).
• With the choke off, pull the starter line (13) again until the engine
starts (you may need to pull a few times).
• Allow the engine to warm up. If necessary, increase the speed by
pushing the throttle lever (11) slightly.
• Move the brake lever (6) to switched off position (shifted to the back).
• Make a cut.
Do not start the engine while holding the saw in hands. During start
up the chain saw must rest on ground and be held firmly. Ensure the
chain is free to move without contacting any object. Do not cut any
material with the choke cable pulled out.
STOPPING THE ENGINE
• Release the throttle lever (11) and allow the engine to run idle for a
few minutes.
• Set the ignition switch (14) to STOP position.
CHECKING CHAIN LUBRICATION
Check lubrication of the chain and oil level in the tank before starting to
work. Switch on the saw and hold it above ground. If you see enlarging
oil marks, the chain lubrication works well (fig. E). If there are no oil
marks or they are very small, use oil feed adjustment screw (9) to make
appropriate adjustments. In case the adjustment brings no effects, clean
oil outlet, upper hole of chain tension and oilway, or contact service.
Make adjustments when the saw is switched off, observe precaution
measures and do not allow the guide bar to touch ground. Operate
the tool safely and maintain at least 20 cm distance from ground.
Use oil feed adjustment screw (9) to set amount of supplied oil
accordingly to respective operating conditions.
• MIN position – oil flow decreases.
• MAX position – oil flow increases (fig. F).
When cutting hard and dry wood and using whole length of the guide
bar when making a cut, set the oil feed adjustment screw (9) to the MAX
position.
You can reduce amount of oil supplied by turning oil feed adjustment
screw (9) to MIN position, when cutting soft and damp wood, or when
only part of the working length of the guide bar is used.
Oil tank should be almost empty when the fuel tank is emptied. When
filling the fuel remember about filling oil tank as well.
CHAIN LUBRICANTS
Durability of chain and guide bar depends heavily on quality of
lubricant. Use only lubricants, which are designed for chain saws.
Never use regenerated or previously used oil for chain lubrication.
CHAIN GUIDE BAR
Guide bar (20) is exposed to heavy wear especially in tip and bottom
part. To prevent side wear due to friction, it is recommended to turn
over the guide bar every time the chain is sharpened. Clean the
guide bar groove and oil holes on that occasion. Guide bar groove is
rectangular. Check the groove against wear. Put rule to guiding strip
and outer surface of a chain tooth. If you observe distance between,
the groove is correct. Otherwise the guide bar is worn out and needs
to be replaced.
CHAIN WHEEL
Driving chain wheel is subject to especially heavy wear. Replace the
chain wheel when you observe clear signs of wear of wheel teeth.
Worn chain wheel additionally reduces durability of chain. Chain wheel
should be replaced by authorised service workshop.
ADJUSTMENT OF CARBURETTOR
Chain saw carburettor is factory set, however it may require precise
adjustment when operating conditions change. Before starting to
