Tensioning And Slackening The Saw Chain (07); Chain (07); Filling Saw Chain Oil (08); Attaching The Carrying Belt To The Basic Appliance - AL-KO CSA 4020 Betriebsanleitung

Operation

■
Align the guide rail (05/3) so that the
chain tensioning pin (05/6) grips in one of
the two chain tensioning holes (05/7).
■
Align the saw chain (05/1) so that it is in
contact in the groove of the guide rail
(05/3) and on the drive sprocket (05/2).
5. Put on the chain sprocket cover (06/1) and
insert the fastening screw (06/2) and tighten
with the Allen key (06/a).
6. Tension the saw chain (see chapter 4.2 "Ten-
sioning and slackening the saw chain (07)",
page 31).
4.2 Tensioning and slackening the saw
chain (07)
1. Tension the saw chain; use the screwdriver
on the Allen key:
■
Tensioning the saw chain: Turn the chain
tensioning screw (07/1) clockwise (07/a).
■
Slackening the saw chain: Turn the chain
tensioning screw (07/1) anti-clockwise
(07/b).
2. Check the chain tension(see chapter 5.2
"Checking the chain tension", page 32). Re-
peat the previous step if necessary.
4.3

Filling saw chain oil (08)

There is no appliance saw chain oil in the ap-
pliance upon delivery.
IMPORTANT! Danger of damage to the ap-
pliance. Use of the appliance without saw chain
oil leads to damage of the saw chain and the
guide rail.
■
Never operate the appliance without saw
chain oil.
■
Before starting work, fill the saw chain oil in
the oil tank and check the oil level during the
work.
■
At least before starting work each time, check
that the chain lubrication is working.
The service life and cutting performance of the
saw chain depend on optimum lubrication. The
saw chain has oil applied to it automatically
during operation.

IMPORTANT! Danger of damage to the ap-
pliance. Due to the metallic abrasion it contains,
the use of used oil for lubricating the chain would
lead to premature wear of the guide rail and saw
chain. Also, the warranty of the manufacturer will
become void.
■
Never use used oil, only biologically degrad-
able saw chain oil.
IMPORTANT! Danger of environmental
damage. The use of mineral oil for the chain lu-
brication leads to serious environmental damage.
■
Never use mineral oil, but only biologically
degradable saw chain oil.
Each time before starting work or changing the
rechargeable battery, check the oil level and re-
plenish the saw chain oil if necessary:
1. Check the oil level in the viewing aperture
(08/1) of the oil tank. It must always be possi-
ble to see oil. The minimum and the maxi-
mum oil level must not be exceeded.
2. Place and hold the polemounted pruner hori-
zontal on a firm surface.
3. Clean the appliance around the oil tank cap
(08/2).
4. Unscrew the oil tank cap (08/2).
5. Fill the oil tank with biologically degradable
saw chain oil. While doing so, check the oil
level in the viewing aperture (08/1) of the oil
tank. Do not allow it to overrun.
■
Use a funnel for easier filling.
■
Do not allow any dirt to get into the oil
tank.
6. Screw down the oil tank cap (08/2) again.
