SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1Cutting equipment designed to minimise kickback

Faulty cutting equipment or the wrong combination of bar and chain increases the risk of kickback. Use only the bar and chain combinations recommended in the ”Technical data” section.

The only way to avoid kickback is to make sure that the kick- back zone of the bar never touches anything.

By using cutting equipment with “built-in” kickback protection and keeping the chain sharp and well-maintained you can reduce the effects of kickback.

A Bar

The smaller the tip radius the smaller the kickback zone and the lower the chance of kickback.

B Saw chain

A saw chain is made up of a number of links, which are available in standard and low-kickback versions.

None

Standard Low-kickback

CUTTING LINK

DRIVE LINK

SIDE LINK

Combining these links in different ways gives different degrees of kickback reduction. In terms of kickback reduction alone, four different types of link are available.

LOW

STANDARD

HIGH

EXTRA HIGH

CSome terms that describe the bar and chain

When the cutting equipment supplied with your saw becomes worn or damaged you will need to replace it. Use only the type of bar and chain recommended by us. See the ”Technical data” section to find out which equipment is recommended for your saw.

Bar

• LENGTH (inches/cm)

•NUMBER OF TEETH ON

BAR TIP SPROCKET (T). Small number = small tip radius = low-kickback

•CHAIN PITCH (inches) The spacing between the drive links of the chain must

match the spacing of the teeth on the bar tip sprocket and drive sprocket.

•NUMBER OF DRIVE LINKS The number of drive links is

determined by the length of the bar, the chain pitch and the number of teeth on the bar tip sprocket.

• BAR GROOVE WIDTH (inches/mm)

The groove in the bar must match the width of the chain drive links.

•SAW CHAIN OIL HOLE AND HOLE FOR CHAIN

TENSIONER

The bar must be matched to the chain saw design.

Saw chain

• SAW CHAIN PITCH (=PITCH) (inches)

• DRIVE LINK WIDTH (mm/ inches)

• NUMBER OF DRIVE LINKS

• LEVEL OF KICKBACK REDUCTION

The level of kickback reduction offered by a chain is indicated by its model number.

See the ”Technical data” section to find the model numbers of chains that are recommended for use with your saw.

These models are particularly noteworthy for their blend of performance, durability, and user-friendly features, making them suitable for a wide range of cutting tasks.

The Jonsered CS2163 is equipped with a robust 3.1 kW engine, providing ample power for various cutting jobs, from felling trees to limbing and even cutting firewood. One of its notable features is the Quick-Release Air Filter, which allows for easy access and maintenance, ensuring optimal engine performance. Additionally, the CS2163 incorporates the Smart Start technology that reduces the resistance in the starter cord, allowing users to start the saw with minimal effort.

The CS2171, on the other hand, is a more advanced model designed for heavy-duty applications. This saw comes with a 3.4 kW engine and boasts a larger cutting capacity, making it perfect for professional users who tackle more demanding tasks. Its X-Torq engine design significantly lowers fuel consumption and emissions, aligning with environmental standards while delivering exceptional power. The CS2171 also features an anti-vibration system that enhances user comfort during extended cutting sessions, therefore maximizing productivity without sacrificing ease of use.

The CS2165 occupies a sweet spot between the CS2163 and CS2171, offering a balance of power and efficiency. Powered by a 3.2 kW engine, it provides ample performance for most tasks while still being lightweight for easy maneuverability. This model includes the same Quick-Release Air Filter found in the CS2163, making maintenance a breeze. The CS2165 also features an adjustable oil pump, allowing users to customize the oil flow to the chain based on their specific cutting needs, enhancing the longevity of both the saw and the chain.

All three models prioritize user safety, featuring a chain brake system that quickly halts the chain in case of kickback. Furthermore, the ergonomic design of the handles offers a comfortable grip, reducing fatigue during longer cutting sessions.

In summary, the Jonsered CS2163, CS2171, and CS2165 are exceptional chainsaws that cater to the needs of professionals and enthusiasts alike, combining power, technology, and ease of use in one reliable package.
