(2) and on chain wheel (18).
3. Replace chain wheel cover (6) and
screw on blade fixing (4). Blade fix-
ing screw (4) is simply to be tightened
lightly by hand.
Hole (20) on the blade is the holder for
chain tensioning pin (21).Thread (19)
is the holder for blade fixing screw (4).
Ensure that chain tensioning pin
(21) is positioned in hole (20) on
the blade.The pin must be com-
pletely inserted into the hole.
Tensioning the saw chain
The tension of saw chain (1) is important
both for your safety and for the function
of the high pruning saw. A correctly ten-
sioned saw chain will increase the lifetime
of your equipment.
• Saw chain (1) is correctly tensioned if it
can be pulled around blade (2) by hand
(wearing gloves) without sagging.
• When the saw chain is tensioned with
9 N (approx. 1 kg), the gap between
the saw chain and the guide rail may
not be more than 2 mm.

1. Turn blade fixing screw (4) anticlock-
wise to slightly loosen blade (2).
2. Set the tension of saw chain (1) using
chain tensioning device (5).
Turn this quick tensioning device
clockwise to increase the tension.
In the same way, the tension of saw
chain (1) can be decreased by turning
anticlockwise.
3. Turn blade fixing screw (4) clockwise
to retighten blade (2).
Where saw chain (1) has been newly
tensioned, readjust the chain tension
after a short period in operation.
Check the chain tension before
each use of the high pruning saw.
Chain lubrication
Blade (2) and saw chain (1) must
always be oiled. Non-observance
of this will result in increased wear
on the blade and saw chain.
The high pruning saw is equipped with an
oil automatic system. As soon as the mo-
tor is speeded up, the oil also flows faster
to the chain bar (2).
10 min
A full tank will last for ap-
prox. 10 minutes of continu-
ous operation. Check the oil
level in good time.
Fill up with chain oil:
G
• Check the oil fill level and regularly top
up with oil. The oil tank holds 70 ml oil.
• Use Grizzly bio-oil; this product contains
additives that reduce wear and tear and
does not damage the pump system. bio-
oil is available from our Service-Center
(see P. 69 for the address).
• If you have no Grizzly bio-oil available,
use chain lubrication oil with low adhe-
sive additive content.
