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.
•
•
Whether the chain is stiff.
Whether rivets and links are badly worn.
Replace the saw chain if it exhibits any of the points
above.
We recommend you compare the existing chain with a
new chain to decide how badly the existing chain is worn.
When the length of the cutting teeth has worn down to
only 4 mm the chain must be replaced.
Bar
If the chain lubrication system is still not working after
carrying out the above checks and associated measures
you should contact your service agent.
Chain drive sprocket
Check regularly:
•
•
•
Whether there are burrs on the edges of the bar.
Remove these with a file if necessary.
The clutch drum is fitted with one of the following drive
sprockets:
A
Spur sprocket (the chain sprocket is welded on the
drum)
Whether the groove in the bar has become badly
worn. Replace the bar if necessary.
B
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.
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.
Needle bearing lubrication
Both versions of sprockets have a needle bearing on the
drive shaft, which has to be greased regularly (once a
week). CAUTION! Use a high-quality bearing grease or
engine oil.
Checking wear on cutting equipment
Check the chain daily for:
•
Visible cracks in rivets and links.
