Break-in Time for new Saw Chains

1. Remove the battery and adjust the chain tension.
2. Switch on the multi saw and leave the motor idle for approx. for
5 minutes.
3. Remove the battery and check the chain tension again. If necessary,
re-tighten the chain.
4. Afterwards make only easy cuts for approx. 30 minutes. Always
ensure sufficient lubrication of the saw chain! Only use the multi saw
for heavier cuts and greater cutting depths after the running-in period
has expired.
▪
Use only sharp saw chains. Blunt saw chains can jam more easily.
Check the chain tension more frequently when working with new saw
chains, as the chain stretches more at first.
▪
The service life of a saw chain depends on sufficient lubrication and
the correct tension.
▪
During operation, the chain heats up and re-tensioning may be
necessary. Relax the chain after work so that it is not too tight the next
time the cold machine is used.
▪
Do not re-tighten saw chains that have become too hot. After it has
cooled down, it may contract and lie too tight against the sword. Wait
until the saw chain has cooled down before re-tensioning.
▪
The tension of the saw chain is important for your safety and the
function of the machine. A correctly tensioned saw chain increases the
service life of the machine.
▪
Check the chain tension before each use.
▪
The saw chain is correctly tensioned if it can be pulled around the
sword by hand (wear protective gloves) without sagging.
▪
With new saw chains, you must readjust the chain tension again after
a short period of operation.
