Installing the saw chain and blade
bar
CAUTION! Risk of injury due to un-
intentional start-up. Switch off the
machine. Remove the batteries from
the tool.
Procedure
1. Switch off the tool and remove the
batteries (17) from the tool.
2. Place the device on a level sur-
face.
3. Deactivate the chain brake: Pull
the chain brake lever (4) back to-
wards the front handle (11).
You can only refit the sprocket
cover (9) when the chain brake
band has been released.
4. Spread out the saw chain (6) in a
loop so that the cutting edges are
aligned in a clockwise direction.
Use the symbol below the sprock-
et (26) as a guide for aligning the
saw chain (6).

5. Place the blade bar (5) on the
blade guide (24) and slide it onto
the chain sprocket (26).
6. Thread the saw chain (6) over the
chain sprocket (26).
7. Place the saw chain (6) on the top
of the blade bar (5) in the blade bar
groove. Start at the chain sprocket
(26). It is normal for the saw chain
(6) to sag.
8. Pull the blade bar (5) forwards to
tension the saw chain (6).
9. Fit the sprocket cover (9). Ensure
that the wing screw (7) engages in
the holder (25).

CAUTION! The chainsaw can be
re-oiled. Please be aware that the
chainsaw will regrease after use and
may leak oil if it is stored on its side
or upside down. This is a normal oc-
currence and is caused by the ventil-
ation opening on the top edge of the
tank which is a necessary compon-
ent; this is not grounds for complaint.
Since every chainsaw is inspected
and tested using oil during manufac-
ture, a small amount of oil may remain
in the tank after emptying, which may
slightly dirty the housing during trans-
port. Please clean the housing with a
cloth.
Running in a new saw chain
The tensioning force of a new saw
chain decreases after some time.
You must therefore retighten the saw
chain after the first 5 cuts or after 10
minutes of sawing at the latest (Ten-
sioning the saw chain, p. 48).
WARNING! Risk of injury! Nev-
er attach a new saw chain to a worn
chain sprocket or to a damaged or
worn blade bar. The saw chain could
jump off or break.
Adjusting the chain tension
Adjusting the chain tension is de-
scribed in section Tensioning the saw
chain, p. 48.
Servicing the blade bar
WARNING! Cutting injuries! Wear
cut-resistant gloves when working
with the saw chain or with the blade
bar.
