3. Place the saw chain (5) in the groove of the guide
bar (6).
4. Insert the guide bar (6) on the guide pin (17) and
the stud bolt (16). The guide pin (17) and the stud
bolt (16) must be in the elongated hole on the guide
bar (6).
5. Guide the saw chain (5) around the chain wheel
(15) and check the alignment of the saw chain (5).
6. Fit the chain cover (8) back on.
7. Tighten the tensioning wheel (7) clockwise hand-
tight.
8. Recheck the seating of the saw chain (5) and ten-
sion the saw chain (5) as described under 8.2.
8.2 Tensioning the saw chain (5) (Fig. 1)
WARNING
Risk of injury from the saw chain jumping
off!
An insufficiently tensioned saw chain can come off
during operation and cause injuries.
– Check the saw chain tension frequently.
– The chain tension is too low if the drive links
come out of the groove on the underside of the
guide rail.
– Adjust the tension of the saw chain properly if the
saw chain tension is too low.
1. Turn the chain tensioning wheel (7) clockwise to
tension the saw chain (5).
The saw chain (5) must not sag, although it should
be possible to pull it 1-2 millimetres away from the
guide bar (6) in the centre of the guide bar.
2. Turn the saw chain (5) by hand, to check it runs
freely. It must glide freely in the guide bar (6).
The chain tension and chain lubrication have a consid-
erable influence on the service life of the saw chain.
The saw chain is correctly tensioned when it does not
sag on the guide bar and can be pulled all the way
round with a gloved hand. When pulling on the saw
chain with 9 N (approx. 1 kg) tractive force, the saw
chain and guide bar must not be more than 2 mm apart.
Note:
• The tension of a new chain must be checked after a
few minutes in operation, and adjusted if necessary.
• The tensioning of the saw chain should be carried
out in a clean place free from sawdust and the like.
• Correct tensioning of the saw chain is for the safety
of the user and reduces or prevents wear and chain
damage.
• We recommend that the user check the chain ten-
sion before starting work for the first time. The saw
chain is correctly tensioned when it does not sag on
the underside of the guide bar and can be pulled all
the way round with a gloved hand.

• If the saw chain sags or the spring tensioner is de-
fective, contact a specialist workshop.
ATTENTION
When working with the saw, the saw chain heats up
and expands slightly as a result. This "stretching" is to
be expected especially with new saw chains.
8.3 Topping up saw chain oil (Fig. 3)
DANGER
Always switch off the product and let the motor cool
down before filling with oil. There is a risk of fire if oil
overflows.
ATTENTION
Product damage!
If the product is operated without oil or with too little
oil or with used oil, this can lead to product damage.
– Fill with oil before starting the machine. The prod-
uct is delivered without oil.
– Do not use used oil!
– Check the oil level every time you change the bat-
tery.
ATTENTION
Environmental damage!
Spilled oil can pollute the environment permanently.
The liquid is highly toxic and can quickly lead to water
pollution.
– Fill/empty oil only on level, paved surfaces.
– Use a filling nozzle or funnel.
– Collect drained oil in a suitable container.
– Wipe up spilled oil carefully immediately and dis-
pose of the cloth according to local regulations.
– Dispose of oil as per local regulations.
The saw chain will be lubricated automatically while the
product is running. To lubricate the saw chain sufficient-
ly, there must always be enough saw chain oil in the oil
tank. Check the amount of oil remaining in the oil tank
at regular intervals.
Note:
• The cover is equipped with an anti-loss device.
• Only add environmentally friendly, good quality
chain lubricating oil (per RAL-UZ 48) to the chain
saw.
• Ensure that the cover of the oil tank is in place and
closed before switching on the product.
1. Open the oil tank (12). To do this, unscrew the oil
tank cap (12) anti-clockwise.
