GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

- Undo the bar nut.

-Tension the chain by turning the chain tensioning screw clockwise. Use a combination spanner or turn by hand. The chain should be tensioned until it fits snugly on the underside of the bar.

-Tighten the bar nut using the combination spanner. Check that the chain can be pulled round easily by hand.

Lubricating cutting equipment

WARNING! Poor lubrication of cutting

! equipment may cause the chain to snap, which could lead to serious, even fatal injuries.

Chain oil

•Chain oil must demonstrate good adhesion to the chain and also maintain its flow characteristics regardless of whether it is warm summer or cold winter weather.

•As a chain saw manufacturer we have developed an optimal chain oil which, with its vegetable oil base, is also biodegradable. We recommend the use of our own oil for both maximum chain life and to minimise environmental damage.

•If our own chain oil is not available, standard chain oil is recommended.

•In areas where oil specifically for lubrication of saw chains is unavailable, ordinary EP 90 transmission oil may be used.

•Never use waste oil! This is dangerous for yourself, the machine and the environment.

Filling with chain oil

The oil pump is preset at the factory to satisfy most lubrication requirements. A full oil tank normally lasts about the same time as a full fuel tank. Therefore check the amount of oil in the oil tank when filling the fuel to prevent damage to the saw chain and bar that may arise due to a lack of lubrication.

Checking chain lubrication

•Check the chain lubrication each time you refuel. Aim the tip of the bar at a light coloured surface about 20 cm (8 inches) away. After 1 minute running at 3/4 throttle you should see a distinct line of oil on the light surface.

Adjusting chain lubrication

When cutting dry or hard species of wood it may be necessary to increase lubrication. Turn the adjuster screw anticlockwise to increase the oil flow. Remember that this will increase oil consumption, check the level in the oil tank regularly. Turn the adjuster screw clockwise to decrease the oil flow.
