Operating the chainsaw
Switch on the chainsaw only when
chain bar, saw chain and sprocket
chain wheel covering are correctly
assembled. Ensure the voltage of the
mains connection agrees with the
label on the device. Make sure you
have a secure stance
Note: The saw is a high-powered
device, where a 13 A fuse gener-
ally suffices, provided that further
current consumers with high service
are not connected. However, if
the premises installations are not
implemented optimally and “quick-
acting” protection fuses are built-in
(e.g. B 16), the protection fuse
will be activated due to the current
peaks during switch-on. You should
install time-delay fuses with the des-
ignation “L”, which can be bought
in every hardware store. Fuses with
the designation “G” are provided
with even longer time delay, how-
ever they are not usually employed
in households.
Caution! Saw can oil up, see notes
on Operation startup.
Switching on
D
1. Check before the start, whether
sufficient chain oil is in the tank
and, if necessary, refill with chain
oil (see Chapter Operation Start).
2. Form a loop from the end of the
extension cable and hang this
into the tension relief (17) on the
rear grip (1).
3. Connect the device to the mains
voltage.
4. Release the chain brake, where
you shift the brake arm (3) back
against the front grip (8).
5. Hold the electric chainsaw firmly
with both hands, with the right
hand on the rear grip (1) and
the left hand on the front handle
(8). Thumb and finger must close
securely over the handles.
6. For switching on, activate the
switch-on block (11) with the right
thumb and then press the On/Off
switch (10), the electric power
saw runs with highest speed.
Release the switch-on block
again.
7. The power saw switches off when
you release the On/Off switch
(10) again. Switching for continu-
ous running is not possible.
Checking the chain brake
The motor cannot be turned on if
the chain brake has engaged. Do
not employ the chain brake in order
to start the chainsaw or to switch it
off.
E 1. Place the electric chainsaw onto
a solid, flat surface. It must not
contact any objects.
2. Connect the device to the mains
voltage.
3. Release the chain brake by
shifting the brake arm (3) over
against the front grip (8).
4. Hold the electric chainsaw firmly
with both hands, with the right
hand on the rear handle (
A
1)
and the left hand on the front
handle (8). Thumb and finger
must close securely over the han-
dles.
