• 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
experienced 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
resulting 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
sharpening 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
sufficient 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.

Check the hedge trimmer for obvious faults such as:
loose attachments
–
worn or damaged components
–
bent, broken or damaged cutting tools
–
correctly attached and working covers and safety
–
devices
– wear, in particular, cutting tool play
Immediately replace damaged or blunt cutting tools,
even in the event of minor damage.
Oiling the gears
Oil the gears every 10 to 20 operating hours.
1 Position the grease gun at the lubricating nipples
(10).
2 Insert some grease.
Oil the cutting tools and the angle adjustment with
environmentally friendly lubricant.
Setting the idle speed Fig. 50
If the cutting tool is still moving when the device is in
idle, change the idle speed.
1. Let the motor warm up for 3-5 minutes
(not at high speed!).
2. Turn the adjusting screw (S): clockwise
-- The idle speed will increase (+)
anti-clockwise
-- The idle speed will decrease (-)
The idle speed is 3000 rpm.
Contact the manufacturer if the cutting tool still continues
to move in idle.
Do not continue working with the tool!
The user is responsible for all damages caused by
non-compliance with instructions in this manual.
This also applies to non-authorized modifications
of the tool, use of non-authorized spare parts,
accessories, working tools, unrelated and not
intended use, secondary damages due to use of
faulty components.
Wear Parts
Even when used in the intended way, some components
are subject to normal wear. They have to be replaced
depending on the kind of duration of usage. These parts
include, among others, the cutting tool and the retaining
disk.
m Warning!
Use only original manufacturer's replacement parts,
accessories and attachments. Failure to do so can
cause poor performance, possible injury and may
void your warranty.
