General rules
Start the engine and make sure the engine stops when you
move the stop switch to the stop setting.
•
Only use cutting equipment recommended by us!
See the Technical data section.
•
Keep the chain’s cutting teeth properly sharpened!
Follow our instructions and use the recommended file
gauge. A damaged or badly sharpened chain increases
the risk of accidents.
Muffler
Never use a machine that has a faulty muffler.
•
Maintain the correct raker clearance! Follow our
instructions and use the recommended raker gauge.
Too large a clearance increases the risk of kickback.
Regularly check that the muffler is securely attached to the
machine.
•
Keep the chain properly tensioned! If the chain is slack
it is more likely to jump off and lead to increased wear on
the bar, chain and drive sprocket.
If the muffler on your machine is fitted with a spark arrestor
mesh this must be cleaned regularly. A blocked mesh will
cause the engine to overheat and may lead to serious damage.
•
Keep cutting equipment well lubricated and properly
maintained! A poorly lubricated chain is more likely to
break and lead to increased wear on the bar, chain and
drive sprocket.
