5. For dismantling, hold the chainsaw guide bar (12)
swivelled upwards at an angle of approx. 45 degrees
to make it easier to remove the saw chain (11) from
the groove of the guide bar.
6. Replace the chainsaw guide bar (12) and fit the chain-
saw guide bar (12) and saw chain (11) as described
under 8.1.
12.2 Replace the saw chain (11) and
allow it to run in (Fig. 2)
DANGER
Serious injuries possible due to tearing or
jumping off of the sawtooth!
– Never fit a new saw chain on a worn sprocket or on
a damaged or worn guide rail. The saw chain could
jump off or break.
• Only use saw chains and blades designed for this
product.
• Before changing the saw chain, clean the groove of
the guide bar, as the saw chain may jump out of the
bar if it dirty. The deposits can also soak up the chain
oil. The consequence would be that the chain oil does
not reach the underside of the guide bar, or only to a
small extent, and lubrication is reduced.
1. Place the product on a level, even surface.
2. Turn the screw (2) for the chain tensioning system an-
ti-clockwise to slacken the chain tension and remove
the chain cover (3).
3. Remove the guide bar (12) and the saw chain (11).
4. Lay out the saw chain (11) in a loop so that the cutting
edges are aligned clockwise. To align the saw chain
(11), follow the symbols (arrows) on the saw chain or
above the chain wheel (14).
5. Place the saw chain (11) in the groove of the chain-
saw guide bar (12).
6. For assembly, hold the chainsaw guide bar (12) swiv-
elled upwards at an angle of approx. 45 degrees to
make it easier to feed the saw chain (11) into the
groove of the chainsaw guide bar (12).
7. Remove the chainsaw guide bar (12) and the saw
chain (11) on the spring tensioner (13).
8. Press the chainsaw guide bar (12) with the saw chain
(11) down to slip the saw chain (11) over the sprocket
(14).
9. When the saw chain (11) is released, it will be auto-
matically tensioned.
10. Fit the chain cover (3) back on.
11. Turn the screw for the chain tensioning system (2)
clockwise until hand tight.
12. Check the seating of the saw chain (11) again and
tighten the screw (2) for the chain tensioning system
and the chain cover (3).
Note:
With a new saw chain, the tensioning force decreases af-
ter some time. Therefore, you must retension the saw
chain after the first 5 cuts, or after 10 minutes of sawing at
the latest.

12.3 Sharpening the saw chain (11)
WARNING
Increased risk of accidents due to an incor-
rectly sharpened saw chain!
Deviations from the dimensions of the cutting edge ge-
ometry during sharpening increase the risk of kickback
of the product.
– Have the saw chain sharpened by a professional.
The saw chain can be resharpened at an authorised spe-
cialist workshop. Do not attempt to sharpen the saw chain
yourself if you do not have a suitable tool and the neces-
sary experience.
Notes:
A sharp saw chain ensures optimum cutting performance.
It effortlessly eats through the wood, leaving behind large,
long wood chips.
A saw chain is blunt if you have to push the cutting equip-
ment through the wood and the wood chips are very
small. With a very blunt saw chain, no chips are produced
at all, only wood dust.
12.4 Checking the sprocket (14)
(Fig. 2, 7)
1. Place the product on a level, even surface.
2. Turn the screw (2) for the chain tensioning system an-
ti-clockwise to slacken the chain tension and remove
the chain cover (3).
3. Remove the guide bar (12) and the saw chain (11).
4. Check the grooving on the chain wheel (14) with a test
gauge (not included in the scope of delivery).
5. If the grooves are deeper than a=0.5 mm, do not use
the product and consult a specialist dealer. The chain
wheel (14) must be replaced.
12.5 Checking the chainsaw guide bar
(12) (Fig. 2, 8)
1. Place the product on a level, even surface.
2. Turn the screw (2) for the chain tensioning system an-
ti-clockwise to slacken the chain tension and remove
the chain cover (3).
3. Remove the guide bar (12) and the saw chain (11).
4. Measure the groove depth of the chainsaw guide bar
(12) with the scale on a file gauge (not included in
scope of delivery).
5. The chainsaw guide bar (12) must be replaced if any
of the following apply:
– The chainsaw guide bar is damaged.
– The measured groove depth is smaller than the
minimum groove depth of the chainsaw guide bar
(4 mm).
– The groove of the chainsaw guide bar has nar-
rowed or spread.
