condition of the chain before each use. In the event of cracks, broken teeth, or any other
damage, replace the chain with a new one before starting work.
In case of fi nding any damaged or broken chainsaw parts, stop working or do not start
working. It is essential to replace damaged parts before starting work.
Use the chainsaw as intended. The chainsaw is designed only for cutting wood. When
working, watch out for metal elements or stones that may be in the processed wood.
Use original spare parts only. Failure to use original spare parts may increase the risk of
failure and lead to injuries.
The chainsaw should be repaired only in service centres authorised by the manufacturer
using original spare parts. This will minimise the risk of accidents and damage to the
equipment.
PRODUCT OPERATION
Preparing the chainsaw for operation Caution! Unplug the chainsaw from the power supply
before performing any assembly and adjustment work. Disconnect the mains-powered
chainsaws from the socket. In the case of the battery-powered chainsaws, disconnect their
battery.
Mount the guide bar and cutting chain before fi rst use.
Due to the sharp edges of the chain, perform the assembly wearing protective gloves.
Unscrew the locking knob or nut so that the entire side panel can be removed.
Turn the chain tension knob so that the guide bar is in the maximum back position — this will
facilitate the chain installation.
Mount the guide bar and chain as shown in the picture (II).
Make sure that the chain and guide bar are fi tted in the correct direction. The shape and
direction of the links visible on the chainsaw housing should correspond to the chain’s shape
and direction. If there is a visible movement direction indication on the chain
links, it should have the same direction as the indication on the housing and guide bar.
Do not tension the chain yet, but make sure that the chain fi ts the guide bar slot and the teeth
on the drive wheel. Mount the side panel and tighten the locking knob. However, do it so as
not to block the possibility of the guide bar movement. Adjust the chain tension by turning the
chain tension knob. Tighten the locking knob. Check the chain tension. To do this, set the
chainsaw down and lift it by holding the middle part of the chain (III). During this test, the
chain should lift above guide bar by 3 to 4 mm in the spot where it is held. If the chain is
tightened too tight or too loose, loosen the locking knob a little and reset the chain tension.
The chain tension should also be checked every 10 minutes of operation.
Check the technical condition of the chainsaw before connecting it to the power supply. If any
damage is detected, it is forbidden to connect it to the power supply before removing the
damage.
In case the chainsaw must be powered with one-phase alternating current with voltage 230 V
and frequency 50 Hz, the mains socket powering the chainsaw should be protected with a
ground-fault circuit interrupter with a tripping current 30 mA or less.
Oil topping-up (IV)
Caution! Unplug the chainsaw from the power supply before performing any assembly and
adjustment work. Disconnect the mains-powered chainsaws from the socket. In the case of
the battery-powered chainsaws, disconnect their battery.
For lubricating the chain and chainsaw mechanisms, use only oil intended for such purposes.
It is forbidden to use worn-out motor oil. It does not fulfi l its purpose, which can lead to
damage to the chainsaw mechanism.
Make sure that there is lubricating oil in the tank. Place the chainsaw on the horizontal
surface and check the oil indicator. The oil level cannot be lower than the minimum indication.
If there is no such indicator, the lower edge of the oil level indicator should be taken as the
reference level.
It is forbidden to use the chainsaw with the empty oil tank. This can damage the chain, guide
bar, and mechanisms of the chainsaw. It is recommended to start and operate the chainsaw
at least 3 meters from the place where the oil topping-up procedure was
performed. Perform oil topping-up away from fi re and heat sources.
To top up the oil, unscrew the oil tank cap, pour the oil inside the tank so the oil level levels
out with a mark indicating the maximum oil level or upper edge of the oil level indicator, then
screw the tank cap fi rmly and securely. In case of spilling the oil, thoroughly wash off any
