Mounting the chain bar

1. Place the chainsaw with the

motor on a cover to avoid

any mess from the oil.

2. Place the chain (5) in the

grove of the bar (6). Pay

attention to the correct

running direction. As shown

by the running direction

symbol.

3. Place the chain links around

the chain wheel (9) and put

the bar on such that the two

locating pegs fit into the

slotted hole of the bar.

4. Prior to fitting the cover (11)

it is important to set the

chain adjusting cam. To do

this fully depress the chain

clamp/lock knob and rotate

until the cam is aligned with

the arrow as pictures in Fig 1.

5. To fit the cover (15) insert

the back locating hook into

the slot provided near the oil

indicator and lower the cover

over the bar ensuring the

clamp bolt of the cover passes

through the centre of the bar

adjustment block (10) and

rotate the clamp/lock knob

until it just starts to become

tight.

Note.

Do not push the clamp/lock knob while rotating.

Proceed as detailed below to set the chain tension.
6. Screw in the chain clamp/lock knob tightly.

Setting the chain saw tension

1. Loosen the chain clamp/lock

knob by turning it anti-clockwise

approximately 1-2 turns.

2. Press the chain clamp/lock

knob inwards and turn it in a

clockwise direction until the

correct chain tension is reached.

3. The correct tension is reached

when the chain in the middle

of the bar can only be raised

by approximately 3-4mm.

4. Release the chain clamp/lock

knob and ensure it springs

away from the housing

slightly.

5. Tighten the chain clamp/lock

knob by turning it clockwise without pressing it inwards.

6. Check whether all chain links lie correctly in the guide

tracks of the bar.

Oil filling

Note.

The chain saw is shipped

without oil in it. The chain saw

must never be used without

oil or with an oil level that is

below the indicator.

Warning.

Always ensure that

the chainsaw is switched off

and the plug is removed from

the power point before making

any adjustments.
1. Remove oil tank cap (3) and fill the tank with chain

oil. Replace the oil tank cap and tighten well.

2. Lubrication is activated only when the machine is working.
3. Check the oil level periodically, through the oil level

indicator (16).
