Adjusting the chain tension

The adjustment of the chain tension is de-
scribed in the chapter "Assembly - tension-
ing chainsaw".
• Switch off the device and remove the
battery (16) from the device
• Check the chain tension regularly and
re-adjust this as often as possible.When
the saw chain is tensioned with 9 N
(approx. 1 kg), the gap between the
saw chain and the guide rail may not
be more than 2 mm.

Starting up a new saw chain

In the case of a new chain, the tensioning
force decreases after some time. Therefore,
you have to re-tension the chain after the
first 5 cuts and no later than after 10 min-
utes' sawing time.
Never attach a new chain
to a worn drive pinion or
place onto a damaged or
worn chain bar. The chain
could spring back or break,
potentially leading to serious
injury.

Maintaining the chain bar

Use cut-protection gloves
when handling the chain or
the chain bar.
1. Switch off the device and remove the
battery ( 16) from the device.
2. Remove the sprocket chain wheel cov-
ering ( 12), the saw chain (
and the chain bar (
3. Check the chain bar (
Remove burrs and straighten the guide
surfaces with a flat file.

4. Clean the oil passages (
the chain bar, in order to guarantee a
trouble-free, automatic oiling of the saw
chain during operation.
5. Mount chain bar (
( 7) and sprocket chain wheel cover-
ing ( 12) and tighten the chainsaw.
With the oil nozzles in good condi-
tion and the oil regulator set cor-
rectly, the saw chain will spray a
little oil off after starting.

Turn the chain bar

Use cut-protection gloves when han-
dling the chain or the chain bar.
The blade (8) has to be reversed regularly
after a working time of approximately 10
hours in order to ensure even wear.
1. Switch off the device and remove the
battery ( 16) from the device.
2. Remove the sprocket chain wheel cov-
ering (12), the saw chain (7) and the
chain bar (8).
3. Turn the blade around its horizontal
axis and install the blade and chain as
described under "Installing the sawing
chain and blade".
When doing so, pay attention to the
correct rotation direction of the saw
chain!
Use the graphical symbol below the chain
sprocket (20) as a guide to the alignment
of the saw chain (7) when the blade is ro-
tated. The illustrated direction of travel on
the blade is no longer true.
