The saw chain must always throw off a
small amount of oil.
NOTICE
Never operate your saw without chain
lubrication. If the chain runs dry, the
whole cutting attachment will be
irretrievably damaged within a very short
time. Always check chain lubrication and
the oil level in the tank before starting
work.
Every new chain has to be broken in for
about 2 to 3 minutes.
After breaking in the chain, check chain
tension and adjust if necessary – see
"Checking Chain Tension".
The coasting brake brings the running
chain to a standstill when you fully let go
of the trigger switch.
1 Coasting brake off
2 Coasting brake activated
Locking the chain
– in an emergency
The chain brake is activated by pushing
the hand guard toward the bar nose with
your left hand (position ƒ) – or by inertia
in certain kickback situations: The chain
is stopped and locked.
Disengage the chain brake.
N Pull the hand guard back toward the
front handle (position ‚).
The chain brake is also activated by the
inertia of the front hand guard if the
kickback force of the saw is high
enough: The hand guard is accelerated
