INJURY WARNING!
Before working on the device, disconnect the
mains cable from the socket.
Always wear protective gloves when working on
or around cutting tools.
• Regularly check the device before starting work.
• Damaged blades have to be repaired or replaced
by an authorised service department before you
can work with the device.
• Clean the blades with a soft brush after working
with the device and spray a thin layer of liquid pro-
tective oil on the whole blade.
• Always keep the ventilation holes in the motor cas-
ing free and clean.
• Never use water to clean or spray the device. Clean
the motor casing with a damp cloth and never use
detergents or solvents! This may damage the de-
vice's plastic parts. Dry the motor casing carefully
afterwards.
• Always store the machine with the supplied protec-

• Only use OEM parts for maintenance work. Using
parts other than original parts can cause damage
to the machine.
Servicing and sharpening of saw chain
The correct sharpened chain
Working effectively with the chainsaw is only possi-
ble if the chain is in good condition and sharp. This
also reduces the risk of kickback.
The chain can be re-sharpened by any dealer. Do
not attempt to sharpen the chain yourself unless you
have the necessary special tools and experience.
A properly sharpened chain goes way through the
wood and it requires very little pressure. Do not work
with a dull or damaged chain. It increases physical
exertion, increase the vibrations and leads to unsat-
isfactory results and higher wear.
Clean the chain.
Check it.
Replace damaged or worn parts with matching spare
parts they are in the shape and size of the original
parts as necessary.
Sharpening a chain should be performed only by ex-
perienced users!
Notice. Below the angle and dimensions If the chain
is not properly sharpened or the depth is too small,
there is a higher risk of reversion effects and result-
ing injuries! The chain cannot be fixed on the guide
rail. It is therefore best to remove the chain from the
rail and then sharpen.
Select the appropriate tools for the chain pitch sharp-
ening tool.

See "Specifications" for the allowed chain pitches.
The chain pitch (for example 3/8 ") is highlighted in
the depth of each blade.
Use only special files for chainsaws! Other files have
the wrong shape and the wrong cut.
Select the file according to the diameter of your chain
pitch. Make sure to observe the following angle when
sharpening the chain diameter.
A = filing angle
B = the angle of the side plate
The angle must also be maintained for all knives.
For irregular angles, the chain is run irregularly, wear
quickly and break down prematurely.
Since these requirements can only be met with suf-
ficient and regular exercise:
A File Holder must be used when sharpening the saw
chain by hand. The correct filing angle marked on it.
Hold the file horizontally (at a right angle to the guide
rail) and file according to the angle mark on the file
holder. Support the file holder on the top plate and
depth gauge.
File down. The knife is always from the inside to the
outside
The file sharpens only in forward motion. Lift it off in
the backward motion.
Do not touch the dynamic links with the file.
Turn the file regularly continue to avoid a onesided
wear.
Remove to remove a piece of hard wood, bones raw
edges.
All knives must have the same length, otherwise they
will also vary. As a result, the chain is irregular and it
increases the risk of going broke.

non-compliance with instructions in this manual. This
also applies to non-authorized modifications of the
tool, use of non-authorized spare parts, accessories,
