all the cleanser runs out.

again.
8. BAR MAINTENANCE (Fig. 21)
To avoid asymmetrical wear on the bar, make sure
it is turned over periodically.
To keep the bar in perfect working order, proceed
as follows:
– Grease the bearings on the nose sprocket (if
pre sent) with the syringe.
– Clean the bar groove with the scraper.
– Clean the lubrication holes.
– With a at le, remove burr from the edges and
level o the guides.
Replace the bar whenever:
– the groove is not as deep as the height of the
drive links (which must never touch the bottom);
– the inside of the guide is worn enough to make
the chain lean to one side.
9. ELECTRIC CABLES
WARNING! Check the condition of the
electric cables regularly and replace them if
they are worn or their insulation looks dam-
aged.
If the machine’s power cable is damaged, it can
only be replaced with an original spare part by your
dealer or an authorised service centre.
