Adjusting the chain tension
The adjustment of the chain tension is de-
scribed in the chapter "Assembly - tension-
ing chainsaw".
• Switch off the device and remove the
battery (16) from the device
• Check the chain tension regularly and
re-adjust this as often as possible.When
the saw chain is tensioned with 9 N
(approx. 1 kg), the gap between the
saw chain and the guide rail may not
be more than 2 mm.
Starting up a new saw chain
In the case of a new chain, the tensioning
force decreases after some time. Therefore,
you have to re-tension the chain after the
first 5 cuts and no later than after 10 min-
utes' sawing time.
never attach a new chain to
a worn drive pinion or place
onto a damaged or worn chain bar.
The chain could spring back or break,
potentially leading to serious injury.
Maintaining the chain
bar
Use cut-protection gloves
when handling the chain or
the chain bar.
1. Switch off the device and remove the
battery (
13) from the device.
2. Remove the sprocket chain wheel cov-
ering (8), the saw chain (11) and the
chain bar (10).
3. Check the chain bar (10) for wear.
Remove burrs and straighten the guide
surfaces with a flat file.

4. Mount chain bar (10), chainsaw (11)
and sprocket chain wheel covering (8)
and tighten the chainsaw.
Turning the blade bar
Use cut-resistant gloves when work-
ing with the saw chain or with the
blade bar.
The blade bar (10) needs to be reversed
regularly after a working time of about 10
hours in order to ensure even wear.
1. Switch off the device and remove the
battery (
13) from the device.
2. Remove the sprocket cover (8), saw
chain (11) and blade bar (10).
3. Turn the blade bar around its horizon-
tal axis and install the blade bar and
chain as described under "Installing the
saw chain and blade bar".
When doing so, pay attention to the
correct rotation direction of the saw
chain!
Use the graphical symbol above the chain
sprocket (18) as a guide to align the saw
chain (11) when the blade bar is rotated.
The illustrated direction of travel on the
blade bar is no longer true.
Storage
• Clean the equipment before putting it
away.
• Put on saw bar protection sheath.
• Use the storage case provided.
• Store the appliance in a dry place well
out of reach of children
