Use only a mixture of unleaded petrol (min. RON 95) and spe-
cial 2-stroke engine oil (JASO FD/ISO - L - EGD). Mix the fuel
mixture as per the fuel mixing table.
Put the correct amount of petrol and 2-stroke oil into the en-
closed mixing bottle (30) (see "Fuel mixing table"). Then shake
the mixing container (30) well.

8.2 Refill with fuel
m WARNING
Only fill the fuel when the engine is switched off and has cooled
down. There is a risk of fire!
• Always clean the area around the fuel tank cap (13) before
filling to prevent dirt from falling into the fuel tank. Use a dry,
lint-free cloth for this purpose.
• Lay the device on its side with the fuel tank cap (13) facing
upwards.
• Turn the fuel tank cap (13) anti-clockwise and open it. The
fuel tank cap (13) is connected to an anti-loss device in the
fuel tank and thus cannot fall off.
• Pour the fuel mixture into the fuel tank. Do not spill fuel when
refuelling and do not fill the fuel tank to the brim.
• Wipe up spilled fuel immediately.
• Turn the fuel tank cap (13) clockwise to close it.
NOTE
Also check the chain oil after each fuel fill.
8.3 Filling with chain oil
m WARNING
Only fill the saw chain oil when the engine is switched off and
has cooled down. There is a risk of fire!
Never work without chain lubrication! If the saw chain runs dry,
the set of blade and saw chain will be irreparably destroyed in
a short time.
Always check chain lubrication before working.
NOTE
Use only saw chain oil. Preferably biodegradable. Do not use
waste oil, engine oil, etc.
Check during work that the chain lubrication is working.
• Always clean the area around the chain oil fuel cap (14) before
filling so that no dirt falls into the chain oil tank. Use a dry, lint-
free cloth for this purpose.
• Lay the device on its side with the chain oil fuel cap (14) is
facing upwards.
• Turn the chain oil fuel cap (14) anti-clockwise and open it. The
chain oil fuel cap (14) is connected to an anti-loss device in
the chain oil tank and thus cannot fall off.
• Pour the provided bio chain oil into the chain oil tank. Do not
spill chain oil when refuelling and do not fill the chain oil tank
to the brim.
• Wipe up spilled chain oil immediately.
• Turn the chain oil fuel cap (14) clockwise to close it.

8.4 Tensioning and checking the saw chain
m WARNING
Put on protective gloves! Danger of injury due to the sharp
cutting teeth!
Check the chain tension regularly before each start-up.
• Before tensioning, loosen the two fixing nuts (20) a little with
the spark plug wrench (31).
• Turn the chain tensioning screw (21) clockwise with the slot-
ted screwdriver (31) to increase the tension.
• Tighten the two fixing nuts (20) with the spark plug wrench
(31).
• The saw chain (17) must be in contact with the underside
of the guide rail. Check whether the saw chain (17) can be
pulled over the guide rail (16) by hand (with the chain brake
released, pull the front hand guard (1) back).
NOTE
A new saw chain (17) stretches and needs to be re-tensioned
more often.

Working instructions
Familiarise yourself with handling the chainsaw before use.
It is mandatory to carefully check the chainsaw for any damage
before each use or after it has been dropped.
If damage is identified, it must be rectified immediately by you
or an authorised service centre. Prior to every start-up of the
chainsaw, check the following points:
• Correct seating of the guide rail
• Installation/running direction, as well as flawless (sharp) saw
chain
• Tension of the saw chain (check and readjust several times if
the chain is new)
• Function of the chain lubrication
• Function of the chain brake
• Function of the clutch (chain does not move when idle)
• Leak-tightness of the fuel system
• Faultless condition and completeness of the guards and the
cutting device
• Tight fit of all screw connections
• Smooth running of all moving parts
NOTE
The chainsaw does not have a start gas lock.
