above.shoulder.height..This helps
prevent unintended tip contact and ena-
bles better control of the chain saw in
unexpected situations.

chains.specified.by.the.manufac-
turer..Incorrect replacement bars and
chains may cause chain breakage and/
or kickback.

the depth gauge height can lead to
increased kickback.
Further safety directions
• If the power cable for this equipment is
damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, a customer service agent
of the same or a similarly qualified per-
son in order to prevent hazards.
• Lay the extension cable in such a way
that it will not be caught by branches
or similar during sawing.
• Use a surge protector with a release cur-
rent of 30 mA or less.
• Comply carefully with maintenance,
control and service instructions in
this manual. Damaged protective de-
vices and parts have to be repared or
changed except as noted otherwise in
this manual.

The tool is completely assembled on deliv-
ery.Before you start up the electric chain-
saw, adjust the chain, fill up with chain oil
and check the automatic lubrication and
chain brake function.
Note that the saw can re-oil.
Please note that the saw re-oils after use
and oil may leak out if it is stored on its
side or on the head. This is a normal
process due to the necessary ventilation
opening on the upper edge of the tank and
does not constitute a reason for complaint.
As each saw is checked during production
and tested with oil, a small residue may
be in the tank despite draining, which may
slightly dirty the housing with oil in transit.
Please clean the housing with a cloth.
Tensioning the saw chain
With a correctly tensioned chain you get
good cutting performance and a longer
life.

chain.may.break.or.spring.
