CLEANING/STORAGE
CHECKING THE AUTOMATIC
CHAIN LUBRICATION
LUBRICATE SPROCKET
SHARPENING THE SAW CHAIN
Regularly check the functionality of the
automatic chain lubrication in order to prevent
overheating and the subsequent damage
to the chain bar and saw chain associated
with it. For this purpose, align the chain bar
tip against a smooth surface (board, cut-in
of a tree) and allow the chain saw to run.
If an increasing amount of oil appears, the
automatic chain lubrication functions properly.
Keep chain sharp. Your saw will cut faster
and more safely. A dull chain will cause undue
sprocket, guide bar, chain, and motor wear.
If you must force chain into wood and cutting
creates only sawdust with a few large chips,
then chain is dull.

service center, or sharpen the chain
yourself using a proper sharpening kit. The
height difference between the cutting tip and
the ridge is the depth gauge setting (Fig. 16).
When you sharpen the cutting tip, the depth
gauge setting between the tip and the side
plate ridge will decrease. To maintain optimal

WARNING!
WARNING!
Wear heavy duty gloves when performing any
maintenance or service to this tool.
Always unplug the tool before performing any
service or maintenance on this tool.
Unplug chain saw from power source before
servicing. Severe injury or death could occur
from electrical shock or body contact with
moving chain. Cutting edges on chain are
sharp. Use protective gloves when handling
chain.
NOTE: It is not necessary to remove the
chain or bar when lubricating the sprocket.
1. Clean the bar and sprocket.
2. Using a grease gun, insert the tip of the
gun into the lubrication hole and inject
grease until it appears at the outside edge
of the sprocket tip (Fig. 15).
3. To rotate the sprocket release the chain
stop and pull the chain by hand until the
ungreased side of the sprocket is in line
with the grease hole. Repeat the lubrication
procedure.
