OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS ELECTRICAL CHAIN SAW
EN Chain and guide lubrication | Putting into service
Oil refill hole for chain lubrication
The model of your chain saw is equipped with the automatic lubrication system.
Control of automatic lubrication system
To check the automatic lubrication system turn the saw on and hold guide approximately
20 cm from a fixed light object. Let the saw run in the medium revolution range; light oil trace
gets created on the light object.
Oil in the tank is sufficient for about 20 minutes of continuous operation.
If you have doubts on lubrication system functionality and even the next steps do not improve
this state, have the saw repaired in an authorized service facility.
- Check whether there is any oil trace left on guide and if this is the case, wipe the oil.
- Check guide groove and if necessary, clean the rest of oil.
Check whether sprocket at saw tip got fouled up. If necessary, clean and lubricate it.
Chain wear control
ATTENTION! Before cleaning or maintenance works always pull the plug out of mains
socket.
ATTENTION! Examine machine properly.
Before each use check whether the chain:
has any rivets and joints broken
is stiffened
has any rivets and links worn out
has tooth length at least 3 mm (1/8“)
Each of such deficiencies indicates chain wear and it should be replaced.
Control of driving sprocket wheel
ATTENTION! Before cleaning or maintenance works always pull the plug out of mains
socket.
ATTENTION! Examine machine properly.
Check driving sprocket wheel regularly. Once it gets significantly worn out, replace it.
12. PUTTING INTO SERVICE
