• Tighten the fixing screw of the chain wheel cover
(Fig. 55).
• Important! All the chain links must lie properly in
the guide groove of the cutter bar.
Notes on tensioning the chain:
The chain must be properly tensioned to ensure
safe operation. When the saw chain can be raised
by around 2 mm in the middle of the cutter bar, you
know that the chain tension is ideal. During cutting,
the temperature of the chain rises and its length
changes. It is important therefore to check the chain
tension at least every 10 minutes and to adjust it
again as required. This applies in particular to new
saw chains. When you have finished working, slack-
en the chain again as it will shorten when it cools
down. This will help to prevent damage to the chain.
9. Filling with fuel
m Danger of injury! Fuel is explosive!
Turn the motor off and let the machine cool down.
Wear safety gloves.
Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Make sure you observe the "Safety Instructions" par-
agraph.
• Only ever refuel the tool outdoors or in sufficiently
ventilated rooms.
• Clean around the filling area. Contaminants in the
tank will cause operating problems.
• Before refuelling, shake the container with the fuel
mixture.
• Carefully open the fuel filler cap (B) so that poten-
tial pressure can be release. Fig. 26
• Carefully pour in the fuel mixture to the lower edge
of the filler.
• Close the fuel filler cap (B). Ensure the fuel filler
cap closes tightly.
• Clean the fuel filler cap and the area around it.
• Check the tank and the fuel line for leaks.
• Before starting the motor, remove yourself from the
fuelling place by at least three metres.
Draining fuel. Fig. 43
Only ever empty the tank outdoors or in well-
ventilated rooms. Make sure not to spill fuel or
chain oil into the soil (environmental protection).
Use a proper base.
• Hold a collection container beneath the fuel drain
bolt.
• Unscrew the tank cap and remove it.
• Allow the fuel to run out completely.
• Screw the tank cap on firmly by hand.

good working condition. Never use a damaged,
poorly adjusted or serviced or not completely
and securely assembled device.
Check before use!
• Check the safe condition of the device:
• Check the device for leaks.
• Check the device for visual defects.
• Check that all parts of the device have been se-
curely fitted.
• Check that all safety devices are in proper condi-
tion.

6. When the engine is running and idling. First press
the lock off lever (8) and then switch the throttle
lever (11) on, the machine will be working. Fig. 30
7. If meet any problems, press the engine switch to
off position, the machine will stop running. If need
stop cutting head working, release the throttle le-

pressed from the harness. The machine then de-
taches immediately from the carrying strap and
falls to the ground. Fig. 59

justed to ON position directly when re start the
machine. Without choke
Note: If the engine does not start up even after sev-
eral attempts, read the section „Engine troubleshoot-
ing".
Note: Always pull the starter cord out in a straight
line. If it is pulled out at an angle, then friction will oc-
cur on the eyelet. As a result of this friction, the cable
will become frayed and will wear away faster. Always
hold the starter handle when the cable retracts.
Never allow the cable to snap back when it has been
pulled out.
Note: Do not start the motor in tall grass.
m Attention: When the engine has been switched
off, the cutting unit continues running for several sec-
onds therefore do not touch the cutting unit until it
has come to a standstill!
