Starting / Stopping the Engine
To reduce the risk of fire and burn injuries, start the en-gine at least 10 feet (3 meters) from the
fueling spot, out-doors only.
Proper starting methods reduce the risk of injury.
Place the saw trimmer on firm ground or other solid sur-face in an open area or, in the alternative,
as shown in the above picture. Maintain good balance and secure footing.
Operating Instructions
During operation
Check chain tension frequently!
A newchain has to betens
ioned more often than onethat has been in use for some time.
Cold chain:
Tension is correct when the chain fits snugly against the underside of the bar and can still be pulled
along the bar by hand. Retension if necessary – see chapter “Tension-ing the Saw Chain”. Chain at
operating temperature: The chain stretches and begins to sag. The drive links on the underside of
the bar must not come out of the bar groove – the chain may otherwise jump off the bar.
Retension the chain – see chapter “Tensioning the Saw Chain”.
Always slacken off the chain again after finishing work. The cha
in contracts as it cools down. If it
is not slackened off, it may damage the gear shaft andbearings.
After finishing work
Slacken off the chain if you have retensioned it at op-erating temperature during cutting work.
The chain contracts as it cools down. If it is not slackened off, it may damage the gear shaft and
bearings.
