GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•
Check that the bar tip sprocket turns freely and that the
lubricating hole in the tip sprocket is not blocked. Clean
and lubricate if necessary.
When the length of the cutting teeth has worn down to only
0.16 inch (4 mm) the chain must be replaced.
Bar
Check regularly:
•
Whether there are burrs on the edges of the bar.Remove
these with a file if necessary.
If the chain lubrication system is still not working after
carrying out the above checks and associated measures you
should contact your servicing dealer.
Chain drive sprocket
•
•
Whether the groove in the bar has become badly worn.
Replace the bar if necessary.
The clutch drum is fitted with one of the following drive
sprockets:
Whether the tip of the bar is uneven or badly worn. If a
hollow forms on the underside of the bar tip this is due to
running with a slack chain.
A
B
Spur sprocket (the chain sprocket is welded on the drum)
Rim sprocket (replaceable)
Regularly check the degree of wear on the drive sprocket.
Replace if wear is excessive. Replace the drive sprocket
whenever you replace the chain.
•
To prolong the life of the bar you should turn it over daily.
Needle bearing lubrication
WARNING! Most chain saw accidents
happen when the chain touches the
operator.
Both versions of sprockets have a needle bearing on the
drive shaft, which has to be greased regularly (once a week).
CAUTION! Use only high quality bearing grease or engine
oil.

instructions under the heading Personal
protective equipment.

bearing lubrication.
