10. Chain lubrication
To prevent excessive wear, the saw chain and chain
bar must be evenly lubricated during operation.
Lubrication is automatic. Never work without chain
lubrication. If the chain runs dry, the entire cutting
apparatus will quickly become severely damaged. It
is therefore important to check both chain lubrication
and the oil gauge before every use (Fig. 9).
Never use the saw when the oil level is below the
„Minimum" mark (Fig. 9).
Minimum - When only approx. 5 mm of oil is visi-
ble at the lower rim of the oil gauge, you must
top up with oil.
Maximum - Top up with oil until the window is
full.
11. Checking the automatic lubrication
Before commencing work, check the automatic chain
lubrication and oil gauge. Switch on the chainsaw
and hold it above light-colored ground. Be careful not
to allow the chainsaw to touch the ground. For safety
reasons it is best to keep a clearance of at least 20
cm. If you now see growing traces of oil, the chain
lubrication system is working correctly. If there are
no traces of oil at all, try cleaning the oil outlet or
contact your Customer Service.
Adjust the oil flow
Adjust the oil flow by turning the oil regulating screw
(13). In the case of damp and soft wood the oil flow
can be decreased (turn the oil regulating screw
clockwise); in the case of dry, hard wood more oil is
required for lubrication (turn the oil regulating screw
anti-clockwise)
12. Chain lubricants
The service life of saw chains and chain bars
depends to a large extent on the quality of the lubri-
cant used. Old oil must not be used! Use only envi-
ronment-friendly chain lubricant. Store chain lubri-
cant only in containers which comply with the
regulations.
13. Chain bar
The chain bar is subjected to especially severe wear
and tear at the nose and on the bottom. To avoid
one-sided wear and tear, turn the chain bar over
every time you sharpen the chain.

14. Chain wheel
The chain wheel (Fig. 2/Item C) is subjected to
especially high wear and tear. If you notice deep
wear marks on the teeth, the chain wheel must be
replaced. A worn chain wheel curtails the service life
of the saw chain. Have the chain wheel replaced by
a specialist dealer or your Customer Service.
15. Chain guard
The chain guard must be clipped onto the chain and
sword as soon as the sawing work has been comple-
ted and whenever the machine has to be transpor-
ted.
16. Chain brake
In the event of kick-back, the chain brake will be
actuated via the front finger guard (1). The front fin-
ger guard (1) is pushed forwards by the back of the
hand and this causes the chain brake to stop the
chainsaw, or rather the motor, within 0.10 s.
17. Releasing the chain brake
To be able to use your chainsaw again, you must
release the saw chain again. First switch off the
machine. Then push the front finger guard (1) back
into the vertical position until it locks in place. The
chain brake is now fully functional again.
18. Sharpening the saw chain
You can have your saw chain sharpened fast and
correctly by specialist dealers, from whom you can
also obtain chain sharpening equipment to enable
you to sharpen the chain yourself. Please follow the
corresponding operating instructions.
Take care of your tools. Keep your tools sharp
and clean to enable you to work well and safely.
Follow the maintenance regulations and the
instructions for changing tools.
