SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

C Checking chain lubrication

• Check the chain lubrication each time you refuel.

Saw chain

1Check that the oil channel in the bar is not obstructed. Clean if necessary.

2 Check that the groove in the edge of the bar is clean. Clean if necessary.

3 Check that the bar tip sprocket turns freely and that the lubricating hole in the tip is not blocked. Clean and lubricate if necessary.

Check the saw chain daily for:

Visible cracks in rivets and links.

Whether the chain is stiff.

Whether rivets and links are badly worn.

We recommend you compare the existing chain with a new chain to decide how badly it is worn.

When the length of the cutting teeth has worn down to only 4 mm the chain must be replaced.
