Lubrication
WARNING! The product is not lled with oil. It is essential
to ll the product with oil before using it! Never operate the
product without chain oil or with an empty oil tank, as this
will result in extensive damage to the product!
Never operate the bar and chain without lubrication oil!
Operating the product dry or with too little oil will decrease
cutting efciency, shorten the product life span and
cause rapid wear to the chain and bar from overheating!
Insufcient oil is evident by smoke or bar discoloration!
Adequate lubrication of the saw chain during cutting
operations is essential to minimise friction with the guide
bar. Your product is equipped with an automatic oiling
system! The oiling system automatically delivers the
proper amount of oil to the bar and chain!
Set the product on any suitable surface with the tank cap (13) >
facing upwards.
Unscrew and remove the tank >
cap (13), then add the lubricant
into the tank. Use a proper
funnel with a lter to prevent
debris entering the tank and to
avoid spilling and overlling the
tank. Do not overll and leave
approximately 5 mm of space
to the lower edge to allow the
lubricant to expand (Fig. 12).
