Maintenance and

cleaning

Maintenance and cleaning

work must always be carried
out with the motor switched
off and the batteries re-
moved. Danger of injury!
Leave any maintenance and
servicing work not covered
by this manual to our Ser-
vice-Center. Use only original
spare parts. Allow the ma-
chine to cool down before all
maintenance and cleaning
works. Danger of burn inju-
ries!
Use cut-protection gloves
when handling the chain or
the chain bar. Risk of cuts!
Switch off the device and remove
the battery before carrying out any
maintenance work.
Cleaning
• Clean the machine thoroughly after
every use. In this way, you extend the
life of the machine and avoid accidents.
• Keep the gripping handles free of pet-
rol, oil or grease. Clean the gripping
handles, where appropriate, with a
moist cloth soaked in soap. Use no sol-
vents or petrol for cleaning!
• Clean the saw chain after every use.
Use a paint brush or wipe for that. Do
not use any liquids to clean the chain.
After cleaning, oil the chain lightly with
chain oil.
• Clean the ventilation slots and the
surfaces of the machine with a paint
brush, whisk or dry cloth. Do not use
any liquids for cleaning.

Oiling the saw chain

Clean and oil the chain regularly.
In this way, you keep the chain
sharp and get optimum machine
performance. In case of damage
due to inadequate maintenance
of the saw chain, the guarantee
claim is invalid. Remove the battery
and use cut-resistant gloves when
working with the chain or with the
blade.
• Oil the chain after cleaning, after 10
hours of use or at least once weekly,
depending on which comes fi rst.
• Before oiling, the chain bar must be
cleaned thoroughly, in particular the
teeth of the rail. Use a whisk and a dry
cloth for that.
• Oil the individual chain links with the
aid of an oil suction gun with pinpoint
tip (available in the specialist trade).
Place individual oil drops onto the ar-
ticulated links and onto the tooth tips of
the individual chain links.

Sharpening the saw chain

An incorrectly sharpened
saw chain increases the dan-
ger of spring-back!
Use cut-protection gloves
when you are handling the
chain or the chain bar.
A sharp chain guarantees an op-
timal cutting performance. It eats
effortlessly through the wood and
leaves large, long wooden chips.
A saw chain is blunt if you have to
