GUIDE BAR AND CHAIN
A. Undo the guide bar nuts and remove the clutch cover and transport packing piece.
B. Place the guide bar into its rearmost position. Make sure that the
chain tensioning stud is properly in the hole in the guide bar.
NOTE!
On no account waste oil should be used as this can damage the oil
pump.
C. Fit the chain around the drive sprocket and in the groove of the
bar. Start on the upper side of the guide bar.
Make sure that the cutting edges of the sawing teeth along the
top of the guide bar are facing towards the tip. Also check that the
drive links go down properly into the drive sprocket.
D, Tension the chain so that it does not sag along the bottom of the
guide bar. Check that the chain and guide bar fit properly.
Fit the clutch cover and tighten the nuts fingertight only,
Pull the chain a few turns around by hand and check that it can
move freely.

MAINTAINING
ADJUSTING THE CARBURETOR
THE CHAIN BRAKE
This chain saw is equipped with a new type of automatic chain brake
that has been adjusted at the factory. It will need no further adjustment.
The carburetor
has three adjusting screws:
L = Low speed needle
H = High spaed needle
T = Throttle adjusting screw
Release the chain brake as soon as you move or cease working even
if it is for a short break. Push the front hand guard to release the
brake.

Apply full throttle and release the chain brake. The chain should
immediately stop rotating.
4. Start the engine and warm it up. Adjust the idling speed by means
of the throttle adjusting screw so that the chain starts rotating.
5. Adjust the low speed needle to reach the highest speed at which
the engine is still idling, Then screw the needle out equivalent to
10 minutes on a clock-face.

Use the following procedw’e to check that the automatic chain brake
actuates correctly;
Hold the chain saw horizontally abt 20 cm over a trunk. NOTE! Switch
off the engine! Release your grip on the front handle. As the saw by
force of its own weight swings around the rear handle and the guide
bar tip hits the trunk, the brake should actuate.

NOTE!
Should the engine not be fourstroking, there is a risk
of piston seizure.

CLEANING THE AIR FILTER
In order to get at the air filter, remove the cylinder cover by undoing
the three retaining screws and lifting the cover off upward% backwards,
Lift off the filter carefully to prevent dirt from falling down into the
carburetor.
Rinse the filter in warm soap suds.
Do not rinse in fuel, Reassemble the filter and make sure that it lies
close to the carburetor. Use two filters alternately. Clean the filter
daily.

Lift up the starter cord into the notch on the pulley. Tension the

NOTE!
Make sure that it is possible to turn the pulley at least half a
turn further when the cord is pulled out completely.
STARTING THE CHAIN SAW
Cold engine
...

..-,’1,
A$
\
1. Switch on the ignition (push the ignition switch to the left so that
the 1 is visible).
2. Push UII the choke control.
NOTE!
One of the most common causes of starting difficulties is that too
many starting attempts have been made with a closed choke flap. If
this is the case, remove the spark plug and wipe it dry. Open the
choke flap fully.
Before you reassemble the spark plug, pull the starter handle several
times to “ventilate the cylinder”, the ignition switch in O-position.
Fit the spark plug and make a new starting attempt with open choke
flap and full throttle.
CAUTION!
Guide bar, chain and clutch cover must be fitted before the
engine is started, otherwise the clutch may come loose and
cause injuries.
3. Push down the throttle trigger lockout (A).
4, Open the throttle fully (B).
5. Push down the throttle latch (C).
Now all controls are in starting position and the chain saw is ready to
be started.
6. Put your right foot on the plate under the rear handle.
7. Grasp the front handle with your left hand and press the saw
against the ground.
8. Grasp the starter handle with your right hand and pull out the
starting cord slowly until the starter pawls engage.
9. Give the starting cord a sharp tug.
NOTE!
Do not pull out the starting cord entirely or release the starter handle
in pulled out position, as this can cause damages on the chain saw.
10. Normally the engine will start after 2X3 starting attempts. Push
down the choke control as soon the engine starts.
Open rapidly the throttle wide and the latch will disengage.

In winter, extreme cold and powdery snow can cause running problems.
The partition wall is prepared for cold working conditions. In the
partition wall there is a hole, that is covered by a lid (A) when
operating at normal temperatures,
In case of extreme cold, this lid shall be removed so that heated air
from the cylinder can flow into the carburetor space and prevent the
air filter from being iced up.
For operating under winter conditions there is a special winter kit
available. This kit contains a rubber seal for mounting around the
fuel hose and a cover plate which has to be mounted on the right side
of the cylinder.

NOTE!
Under normal temperature conditions the lid has to be
closed. Otherwise there is a certain risk of overheating the
chain saw.
